ALEX Leipzig in Leipzig

The staff are always friendly, the ambiance is a bit dated but still chic. The food could be a few degrees warmer (on several occasions).

The food was good, despite the fact that the restaurant was full it went really quickly, but the waiter who brought us the food was a little overzealous, he wished us a good appetite even though not everyone had eaten yet

A really great place to stop off in Leipzig. We're here for dinner now after we enjoyed it so much yesterday lunchtime.

The Alex is a good restaurant with a large selection of different dishes. We can recommend the waffles. The tarte flambée wasn't bad either, but the prices were a bit too high. All in all (also due to the good location) it is a recommendation.

Have reserved for three people. Unfortunately the food didn't arrive for over an hour and the portion was small for the price. The food was delicious, hence a few more stars. The staff was very unfriendly and they didn't even ask about us during the hour. When packing everything was simply thrown off the plate and everything was spread out in the packaging. For the price you can really expect more!

We gave a small tip and were not happy and said “thank you”. We ate burgers and they were very tasty 😋

We come here very often when we're looking for a nice place for brunch or coffee. The food is good and varied, the selection of drinks is very good. The children's corner is also simply beautiful! :)

We ate here with a large group... Unfortunately, the quality of the food was no longer as usual. The fries with the burger came on the plate with a teaspoon of sauce on top. Overall, the portion size of the fries was very manageable for almost seven euros. They were already available with an extra sauce container. Portions extremely small… Not appropriate for the price. Service takes extremely long, very long waiting times… but friendly! Chairs and tables very unclean.

Everything was extremely tasty, large selection and the portions were big enough. Nice service and good drinks.

From the food to the sanitary, everything is perfect! Definitely recommended

Very nice local and very good and friendly service.

I can recommend it with a clear conscience. Not only does it offer a variety of flavorful dishes, but it's also served in a visually appealing and friendly manner. And it's affordable, too. Top notch!

We ordered two pork schnitzels with mushrooms, and after an hour of waiting, one was brought to our table "first," as the second one was still taking a while. I don't understand this, especially when other tables that ordered after us all received their dishes first. I really enjoy eating at Alex, and the restaurant in Leipzig was my favorite until now, but after today, I'm very disappointed and will think twice about returning to eat here.

At first glance, everything seems fine. Then you look around and find birds flying everywhere in the restaurant. They fly over the heads of the guests. They hop across the table to grab crumbs from the guests. They also leave their droppings on the chairs, tables, and nest in the walls. This should be checked immediately by the veterinary authorities. We're definitely not eating here again.

We were very happy with the excellent food and the great atmosphere. The staff were very friendly. The food came quickly.

We really liked it, the breakfast buffet is ok and filling, and the service is friendly.

Always nice to have brunch at Alex. Service is very friendly.

We love coming here for breakfast. It's very family-friendly and delicious. Highly recommended!

👍👍👍perfect as always good food fast service and the lemonades are awesome

Unfortunately, people with walking disabilities have to stay outside 🤪 The toilets are on the first floor. Lots of stone steps and a narrow hallway lead to the “able-bodied” toilets!! This on the subject of monument protection!!

Very friendly staff..., got a place despite not having a reservation...

The food and drinks are really good and really reasonably priced.

Very tasty food in a great atmosphere. Good location in the center. It was a chance visit because Alex serves food very late in the evening. Thank you very much. We'll be happy to come back.

Had a family trip to Leipzig with the children. Service was very friendly. It was really fun.

We got a table straight away on Friday evening without a reservation, super fast food and service and also extremely tasty.

You can enjoy delicious food and drink good cocktails indoors and outdoors until late at night. Also suitable for larger groups. Centrally located in the city center, a good starting point for further activities.

Despite the spontaneous decision to have brunch on Sundays and the previous telephone notification that there were no seats available and that we could drop by if we were lucky, they did their best to provide us with a place. Super nice service, great selection at the buffet and everything was very tasty. Price performance was absolutely appropriate.

Great location, coffee, cake and of course the service was top notch. Would love to come back.

Love everyone, We had dinner at Alex last night. We have nothing to complain about the service or the location. Super friendly and cozy. However, we have a few complaints about the food; the portions are more like a snack than a filling meal. Unfortunately, this means the price is absolutely overpriced. Unfortunately, the taste of the whole thing was only average, sometimes even cold... All in all ~ the breakfast buffet is recommended, but you should avoid eating à la carte.

As always, a culinary experience - very tasty and well prepared. The service is also excellent. In particular, Mr. Ramazan Tosun, as a waiter, is always friendly, careful, quick and perfectly rounds off the positive overall picture.

Were here with a large group. Despite the steep prices, hardly anyone was fed up. 18€ for a schnitzel is still ok, but if it's not much bigger than a burger patty and you have to look for the side dishes with a magnifying glass, then that's audacious. The cola was non-carbonated, so it was undrinkable. For me the first and last visit to Alex Leipzig.

Very bad restaurant and food there. The people from there aren't nice either. Wouldn't recommend anyone to eat here.

Went there twice and were satisfied. Fast and friendly service.

The food was basically good. Unfortunately, the portions are too small and the drink prices are too high. Overall, rather satisfactory.

Schnitzel was a frozen schnitzel, portions were super small.

We were there for the first time today with children, it was wonderfully beautiful. There were eight of us, including a child aged three. Aside from the great food and great service, there was also a small play area. We'll be coming back more often from now on. Thank you.

Best ALEX we know. The staff is super nice and friendly. The food is amazing, incredibly good quality. 😋 Unfortunately it's also expensive, but it's worth it. On weekends it is advisable to reserve a table. We always come back when we are in Leipzig. 🫶🏻

Drinks original, food great, staff super friendly. Only the toilets could be cleaner. Paper was all. Otherwise everything is perfect.

Delicious food in a chic atmosphere

I was alone in the Alex Leipzig restaurant and thought that I might have to wait longer, as is often the case. But the service was incredibly quick, and the food was delicious. Thank you for the great experience!

Always nice, delicious food, top service.

Great food , great experience.. professionally handled, and the waitresses are cheerful..

As always, a very nice morning at Alex. The waitress Peggy was very friendly and quick, always had a kind word for us. The food was very fresh, tasty and varied. You can't taste everything, so of course we will come back. Keep it up.

It was very nice and the service was very nice and friendly

Nice central restaurant, very nice service. The cake was very tasty, the coffee was good. We still had the Alex Fries Deluxe Style. Sounded very tasty, but unfortunately it only comes with 3 drops of sauce and 3 grated vegetables, so it just looks so pretty. Otherwise they are very expensive dry fries. Sauce, so that it doesn't get dusty, is only available for an additional charge. Very long wait for food. Too bad.

This restaurant used to be my favorite in the city. Unfortunately, that has completely changed. In my opinion, the bruschetta was limp and the portions have become smaller and smaller in comparison over the last two years. The service made us wait for a very long time and the table was almost never cleared, so that during dinner we still had the remains of the starter on the already very small table. Drinks were only replenished upon request. The main course (baked potato) was very tasty.

NEVER AGAIN! I can't recommend Alex Burger as it's very dry and expensive! Drinks are also way too expensive. Cola 0.33l for €4.40. That's usury! Additionally, the service literally ignored us. Tables were not cleared, we had to clear the plates ourselves so we could eat on the small tables. The request for food was only accepted after an hour. This was our last visit to Alex.

The food was really tasty, we had pizza rolls as a starter and the Asian burger and the schnitzel with mushrooms for the main course. And for dessert, waffles with cherries. Personally, I find the non-alcoholic drinks too expensive. I had a homemade lemonade, which was unfortunately very watery and with a sprig of rosemary and a slice of old, shriveled ginger. Even if it's more decoration than taste. Would I rather put fresh ones in or none at all. The Sunshine smoothie, on the other hand, was super tasty 👍

I was there for the breakfast buffet. It was very nice, everything was tasty and sufficient. Be sure to reserve.

Very nice staff. Everything is a bit tight. Breakfast buffet was good and sufficient for the price.

Price/performance doesn't fit here at all. Overpriced food and drinks.

Very nice and quick service despite the restaurant being full. The food was very diverse and delicious. Gladly again :)

Currywurst and schnitzel were good, but the dessert, orange sorbet, nut ice cream, Kaiserschmarrn, etc. was phenomenal. Simply great!

Nothing to complain about. Simply a great selection and incredibly tasty.

We were very satisfied with the food and drink. The atmosphere was also very nice.

Fast and friendly staff. Very chic atmosphere and the food is great.

Service was great and friendly, food and drinks were always perfect and very pleasing to the eye. Always happy.

A good way to get something warm to eat late.

Good breakfast with a large selection

Went to dinner for two. The ambience was good. The restaurant wasn't full but you didn't get served quickly enough. We've already finished eating for more than 20 minutes and none of the waitresses who walk past clear our table. Now we provocatively have the plates placed on top of each other (see photo). Still, no one cares, people continue to walk past happily. Conclusion: the first time with Alex in Leipzig and the last time.

Great food. Price + performance is right.

The quality of the food does not justify the high prices. These would have to be better for that. The entire restaurant has something of an oversized, impersonal train station hall. Doesn't necessarily invite you to linger.

Nice drinks and food. Kaisenschmarrn was cold..

An ordinary restaurant with a busy atmosphere and an unconventional menu. Some of the staff are friendly, while others have a somewhat unusual approach. It’s more like a food factory, reminiscent of fast food. Nothing you absolutely have to visit on a trip to Leipzig…

Unfortunately it was very loud. Price/performance ratio doesn't fit at all. Eating so-so...

Good in itself but Kiba in a wine glass doesn't work at all!!!! Then too little for the price!!

Very friendly service, super tasty food and nice atmosphere

Unfortunately, we were very dissatisfied with the service on our last visit. The cellar treated us unkindly and just let us sit outside. Even though we had ordered and were seated at two tables, we were asked to leave because our group was supposedly too large. This treatment was very unpleasant and made us feel unwanted. I hope you can treat your guests better in the future.

Disappointed with our visit here. We were a group, and after ordering, the staff informed us that if we didn't order more, we would need to vacate the table for other guests. This approach felt very unwelcoming, especially given that the restaurant wasn’t busy and we saw no sign of people waiting. We felt rushed and uncomfortable, which made it hard to enjoy our time. A more customer-friendly approach would definitely improve the experience

Great location, very central. Very high prices.

Basically a pleasant bistro atmosphere and of course very nicely located behind the Old Town Hall. The restaurant wasn't full this afternoon, but we still waited 50 minutes for a burger and an appetizer. Only when asked after 40 minutes was the food prepared quickly. Sweet potato fries costing just under 7 euros were overly fried and some were already hard. Staff friendly, but moderately professional. The lamps are completely covered in dust and filled with dead flies. Some of the seat cushions are completely broken. Men's toilets for sitting in are unkempt, some full of feces etc. Sitting outside in the summer is very nice if you have a lot of time.

Maybe the kitchen should ask what a pastrami sandwich is! Just appearance is not enough when it comes to food! The service is absolutely overwhelmed. There are more sparrows (no joke) in the store than waiters.

Service was always present. We sat comfortably. In warmer weather you can sit outside.

Great and delicious again 👍😋 Fast and super nice service 🤗 Thank you, see you next time

We ate there, the food was OK but nothing special, could be better. I wouldn't order the schnitzel again. Service OK, atmosphere quite nice.

After ordering, it took over an hour for the food to arrive. Burgers and fries were a given.

Great location, relaxed value for money. Very nice, attentive staff. There is a lot of smiling, which is rare these days.

Today the four of us went to Alex again and we realized that the price and performance at the breakfast buffet were no longer right. Sausage and cheese offering nothing special, hardly tasty salads, a little more variety and selection would be desirable. Fruit salad, canned beetroot, etc. Not exactly sustainable and healthy. The location is generally a bit old.

It's a cool place with great cocktails. The staff always tries to offer you a table, even if it's only for 1.5 hours. Top.

Although we asked for a window seat in the reservation email and several tables by the window were free, we were not allowed to sit there. The waiters seemed extremely stressed. After receiving the cards, they arrived every minute after (what felt like) 30 seconds 3 different waiters to take the order. Extremely loud acoustics. Food was great, but unfortunately the rest wasn't.

The food was quite good, only the rolls were probably a bit old. The waitress was very friendly and, even though they were full, spontaneously freed up 5 seats for us and rescheduled everything. We had the breakfast buffet for 15€ which is really a good price, and the selection was sufficient. We'll be back (and then with a reservation).

I started a mini-job at ALEX Leipzig about 1 ½ years ago and am glad I quit as quickly as possible. At that time I was just 18 and wanted to improve my financial situation. After I asked for a job, everything happened very quickly and I was hired a few weeks later. I understand that it can be stressful, especially on weekends and holidays. However, this in no way justifies the lack of empathy and deceitful behavior among colleagues. Many things were not discussed with me, such as the exact working hours or my tasks. More time should be spent on thorough training so that new employees better understand their tasks. If this is not possible, you should think about something else, but barely training new employees and almost “disgusting them away” is unacceptable. I never really felt welcome and often heard gossip from my colleagues. After a few days of work, it was clear to me that I wanted to quit as quickly as possible. When I handed in my resignation and work uniform, all I was told was how inappropriate my behavior was. In fact, a colleague intercepted me on the way out and told me that I had done everything right and that he was also thinking about quitting. In summary, I would like to emphasize that I definitely do not recommend the ALEX Lokal in Leipzig as an employer.

The food was very tasty, the service was very friendly. I found the sparrows in the restaurant a bit unpleasant... And it was very loud in the restaurant

Very pleasant atmosphere (we sat in the corner by the window) Small minus point, it was a hike to the toilets.

We didn't have a reservation but the lovely lady from the service managed to accommodate the 5 of us. The buffet was very tasty and the staff was also very friendly. Any time

We decided to go there in the evening after we arrived. The food was very good, freshly prepared and tasty. Our service person was also very attentive and advised my wife on what to eat after the “dish meal” was no longer available. I would love to be back in Leipzig

Very aesthetic and nice atmosphere, unfortunately I didn't receive what I ordered, but it was still tasty :)

Delicious drinks, very friendly and quick service. I felt very comfortable. Gladly again.

At Alex there is something to eat for every taste and it is extremely tasty. It is a relaxed and informal atmosphere, which the staff also contributes to. You are served casually but competently and you don't have to wait long for what you order. Only the walk to the toilet is quite far. You shouldn't wait until the last second otherwise...

Delicious breakfast, pleasant atmosphere and the staff are always friendly and in a good mood.

Another hospitality that we discovered in Leipzig that we really liked. We were still hungry after visiting the variety show and tried to eat the delicious sausage salad again in the Augustinum. Unfortunately, the kitchen there closed at 10 p.m. but and that's no longer normal, the cheeky waiter with the eye-catching earring and the knickerbockers pointed in the direction of the Old Town Hall and advised us to go to Alex, as the kitchen was far from closing time there. Despite a certain amount of skepticism (because the woman was hungry), we followed the advice and were absolutely thrilled. There was still the entire menu, I only took a bruschetta (perfect), my wife a Buddha?Bowl - and even though it was quite late (11:30 p.m.) there were highly motivated and friendly waiters and everything was clean and tidy. Any time.

There were three of us eating there and the table was reserved two weeks in advance. There's nothing to complain about in terms of service, everything went great and two changes to the food weren't a problem. As for the food itself, the starters were beautifully presented and you can't complain about the taste either. As main courses we had the two steaks (ordered medium and got ideal medium) and the Currywurst Deluxe, all three dishes were sumptuous and really tasty. Only the prices were quite steep, but you probably pay for the location.

I invited my parents here and it was our first visit to Alex. We were very positively surprised. The staff was very very friendly. There is a very large selection of food at lunchtime. The quality of the dishes was great. Everything we had was very tasty including the drinks and dessert. It is definitely recommended to pre-order. I'll definitely come back when I'm in the area. 👍🏼

I was there for the first time Unfortunately there were no signs indicating where the food was, so I was a bit hesitant about breakfast

It was really tasty Friendly waiters Ambience really nice

Nice, nice and often full. Food quite good

Very, very nice restaurant with very good prices and a very nice staff. Definitely worth recommending.

Die Limo & der Eistee schmecken sehr gut! Frische Zutaten und angenehme Kombinationen. Der BERNSTEINKÄSE KÜRBISRÖSTI BURGER ist im Großen und ganzen ein gelungener Burger mit einer sehr Guten Kombination an Zutaten. Lediglich das Prime Beef, womit geworben wird schmeckt leider mehr wie ein Weizen Vegan Patty als nach richtigen Prime Beef. Der CHICKEN HUMMUS BURGER ist im Gegensatz dazu eine reine Katastrophe, schmeckt wie ein schlechter Salat zwischen 2 Brötchen. In meinem Fall war das Hähnchen Filet auf dem Burger eiskalt, als ob es schon 30 Minuten vorher da lag. Die Pommes sind Standard Pommes aus dem Großhandel, schmecken aber in Ordnung. Angenehmes Ambiente ist vorhanden. Der Kellner war zwar sehr freundlich, sollte aber daran üben vielleicht ein wenig lauter zu reden und nicht alles zu nuscheln das man mehrmals nachfragen muss.

Unfortunately only 3 stars for the ambience because the birds in the house unfortunately pooped on our table several times. The rest was almost perfect if it weren't for those annoying piles that ended up right next to the food, even if it was a buffet for us.

After an initial unfriendly greeting and seating, our waiter really did a great job. He was friendly, there when the glasses were empty and very careful. As always, the food was delicious and despite the large group, everyone got their food at the same time. I'd love to come back.
