Open Late & Food Is Great

We went to Alfa on a Tuesday evening at about 10:15 and it seemed pretty empty (as I would have expected for a Tuesday evening.) Yet, about 1/2 hour later the place started filling up. The drinks were great and the food was GREAT for a late night dinner. They DJ had a nice set going that did NOT include the same Electro-Lounge CD that every trendy restaurant (e.g. Buddakan, POD, etc…) play.

What I ate:
  • ****

    I ordered medium, and the first one i ate was medium and VERY good. The other two must have still been cooking inside and cooling down because they ended up being well. Else, it was delicious.

  • ****

    If you like heavy and creamy pasta, this is your dish. It was very good, but is surely still swimming around in my aorta.

  • ***

    Very good salad. It had a very good presentation for late night fare. The tomatoes were salty.

  • *****

    My wife loves the Rouge burger, but i honestly liked this burger better than that. It was awesome.

  • *****

    Just as good as you get anywhere. We love Edamame.

nice place to just hang out. on walnut street, so there’s always a lot of people. a nice substitute for the buttercup bakery which used to occupy the same space. decent food too.
