Alexander in Leiden: Variety over Quality?

If you’re looking for a restaurant with a diverse selection of food options, Alexander in Leiden might catch your attention. They offer a wide variety of dishes, including differnt meats, fish sushi and more. However, while the selection may be extensive, the quality of the food is not always that great.

As a customer, it’s important to consider the tradeoff between quantity and quality when it comes to all-you-can-eat restaurants. For me quality always goes over quantity.

That being said, there are some standout dishes at Alexander that are worth mentioning. The ponzu salmon, for example, is a highlight that stands out for its taste and quality. Some of the meat dishes are also quite good. But overall, there are better all-you-can-eat options out there.

Another issue I had was the long waiting times for certain dishes. For example, the coquilles took 45 minutes and still hadn’t been served. While some may argue that good food is worth the wait, it can be frustrating for customers who are hungry and eager to try a variety of dishes.

If it were up to me, I would suggest that Alexander in Leiden focus on quality over quantity. It might be better to offer fewer dishes on the menu, but ensure that each one is prepared to the highest standards. This would not only improve the overall dining experience, but it would also create a loyal customer base that returns for the quality of the food.

In conclusion, while Alexander in Leiden may offer a wide selection of dishes, the quality of the food is not always up to par. There are some standout dishes that are worth trying, but overall, there are better all-you-can-eat options out there. If you do decide to dine at Alexander, be prepared to wait for some dishes and don’t expect every dish to be exceptional.
