We had a fantastic evening here. The food was absolutely incredible – every dish we tried was delicious and beautifully presented. The service was top-notch as well, the staff made us feel incredibly welcome and took great care of us. The highlight of the night, however, was having the Chef come to our table to chat. It added such a personal touch to the meal.

WOW! What a gem. Our server Lozano was super attentive and sweet. The hostess (long black hair) was incredible as well. Bonus points for the chef who came to check on us after an amazing meal. All the dishes that we had were top notch. Pineapple bread pudding was one of the best desserts I’ve ever had in my life. Highly recommend this little gem 🙂

Referred to this restaurant on open table – being a Chase Reserve exclusive table. Decided to try it using our credit before the end of the year and it didn’t disappoint. Started at the bar with a delicious pineapple cocktail where it tasted like it was fat washed with milk. Then got seated at our table where we opted out of the pre-fixe and went all in with the à la carte menu. Our server Ross was amazing and made some very good recommendations. Appetizers were generously portioned and the mains were easily shareable. We treated the experience as a family-style meal. Only downside is the parking situation is horrible due to so many restaurants being located here, but the food itself was delicious. We will be back during the menu change!

Went there with friends for Saturday dinner. Waited for another ~10 minutes past our reservation time; we were given free popcorn and the smoking flavor tasted great.
We ordered three appetizers and five entrees. The appetizers were amazing. The chèvre pecan and smoothed goat cheese in autumn salad stood out. Yakiton and Kan Sui Noodles are Japanese fusion style, which flavors were really balanced out. The pork belly did not have as much fat as a pork belly normally does, but it was cooked to the just right crispy level.
The entrees were not as impressive as the appetizers but still good. Would recommend the chicken katsu and the black ink bucatini. The flour coating on the katsu was surprisingly thin and crispy more than expected. Wagyu beef, on the other side, was a bit disappointed. We can see that the chef was trying to be creative, but the taste did not catch up with the presentation of the food.
Our server was extremely knowledgeable about all the ingredients when we asked for details. The pace of food coming to the table was comfortable.

We didn’t know what to expect when we came to this restaurant, but we were genuinely amazed by the time we walked out. I originally booked it just to use my Chase Sapphire dining credit, but now it’s a place I’d actually come back to.
For appetizers, I “highly” recommend the autumn salad, and for the main dish, the squid ink bucatini is a must-order. Everything was perfectly balanced, and that bucatini really hit the spot (the seafood, spice, flavor were perfect)

As for the noodle dish, I’m Korean, so I didn’t have strong opinions overall, but I do think adding a bit more kimchi and sesame oil would bring out even more flavor. It was just okay for us. The wagyu steak was also good but nothing special. Sorbet with local honey, was surprisngly good!

To top it off, Alden, the owner, came out to greet us at the end, which made the experience feel even more special.

Despite being a fusion restaurant, the Alden was much better with Western style food than Asian inspired food. Their fish and steak dishes were tasty. Cannot stress enough how delicious the dessert was. But my noodle dish was a bit lacking.
Made a reservation but still had to wait 15 minutes for a seat, albeit this was on a Sunday.

My experience with the three course prix fixe was fantastic. While the Wagyu Sirloin was good, the Yakiton (Pork Belly) was the undisputed star of the meal, absolutely delicious and a must try. Another huge highlight was the vegetarian Panache Of Daal soup, which was extremely flavorful. I would happily return just for these two items.

The menu impressively offers a variety of well executed cuisines, making this spot highly recommendable.

Service was attentive and caring. Parking can be a small challenge in the busy lot but there is a valet right outside the door.

Phenomenal service from start to finish. The first time I’ve ever seen a bartender come out from behind the bar multiple times to check in and assist the dining room. The staff went above and beyond to make me feel special in my birthday. I would eat every dish we had again and we will definitely be back.

This was our fourth time dining at The Alden for a special occasion and our second time with Ross as our server. Every visit the food and quality of service gets better and better (and to start it was impeccable!) This time around we did the $65 3 course tasting menu for the first time— it is an incredible value! You can expect a meticulously crafted menu with inventive flavor pairings, great cocktails, fabulous ambiance, and incredible service when you come. Highly recommend!

TLDR: Excellent dining experience. Very high quality for a very good price.

Review: We came here with my parents. We were greeted by a very nice hostess and seated in the middle right by the kitchen. Our server was very down to earth. He explained all the dishes and was quite knowledgeable and flexible when we switched things up. The cocktails were very good. I was pleased to hear all the non-alcoholic options. The na Rose was excellent.

We were served with warm bread and yummy butter. We wanted more butter but didnt want to fill up.

The autumn salad was amazing. Perfectly dressed and the apples were cut so delicately, very impressed with the presentation.

We were recommended the appetizer trio plate and that was excellent. Crab cakes were perfect. Shrimp were great with the sauces. But the star for us was the oysters. They were creamy but had a bright ocean taste. I will definitely ask for the recipe.

The pork belly was super tender and flavorful. We all fought for the last of it. Just amazing. Came with dressed cucumbers and some yummy sauces. Recommend!

Dad got the snapper. He liked it. I failed to try it.

Mom and wife got the wagyu sirloin. I can confidently say the steak was PERFECTION. The sauce, presentation, cook, everything was flawless for both of their plates.

I got the squid ink pasta. It was unique and had intense flavor. I think the only thing that put me off was the sardine, but thats only because im not a big fan of that fishy profile. I still quite enjoyed the dish and it actually had some decent spice. It was even better the next day. Tons of lump crab in it. I was mesmerized by it the next day.

Deserts were good.

We loved watching the chef Jared Hucks himself cook our dishes. His passion shines through every dish. He came and asked about our experience afterwards. I wish I had a fraction of his talent.

We are coming back again for date night Thursday for the 3 course meal. One of the first restaurants we’ve been smitten by since moving here from out of state.

In terms of atmosphere I prefer more private dining like sectioned booths, this is more open seating and the lighting is a bit brighter than id like for a more romantic vibe. Overall an amazing experience and the pricing was very reasonable. Especially for the quality and level of care overall.

Bravo!
