This place is tucked away off the main road in a residential area. There is a small parking area or street parking. They have a nice patio unfortunately it was being used by a private party. They also have a dining room and a bar area. There are nightly specials plus an extensive menu. Part of my group shared the roasted Brussel sprouts, I didn't partake. We also tried the grilled wings in a white sauce and grilled shrimp both very good. The mac n cheese and sweet potato fries were tasty sides. The others at the table both had the special of the night which I believe was half chicken. We all had the "specialty ice cream sandwiches" which we expected to be homemade or at least on a plate, but rather given to us in their wrapper.

My family stopped by for lunch and were not disappointed. We were greeted and seated right away. The menu at this place is insane. Literally the largest menu I've ever seen. Our waitress was friendly and attentive. She answered all of our questions and made sure to check in on us throughout our meal. I ordered the open faced turkey sandwich with mashed potatoes and gravy. The turkey was thick and fresh, not the typical lunch meat turkey that's served in most places. My boyfriend ordered a breakfast burrito with gravy fries. I know what a combination right? His burrito was huge and was stuffed full. We all enjoyed our meals, left with full bellies, and to go containers. We'll definitely be back!

Great atmosphere, service & food. My fave is the brussel sprouts app. They have a very good selection of food and beverages.

I'm glad that they revived the deceased Alpha into the new Alpha Tavern, small local businesses ought to be supported whenever possible. That said, they have some improvements they need to make before it becomes a place I would return to again.The exterior and interior have been completely revamped, and frankly it looks great. They have plenty of seating, both inside and outside on a patio, as well as a bar area. We ate inside in one of the booths and the seating is very comfortable. They start you off with complimentary chips and salsa, and the chips are the delicious corn tortilla kind. Great start!Unfortunately, things started to slide from there. After looking through both sides of the menu, one thing became readily apparent: this place is NOT cheap. $12 for a basic hamburger, and add $1 for each cheese/non-condiment topping you want. This was surprising, especially since the original Alpha's menu was pretty reasonably priced if I recall correctly. None of the other items were any easier on the wallet, and even the sides were $5 a pop. Ouch.When we placed the order and my girlfriend requested the tomato be left off, our server laughed and said she could put that in the order notes but they always leave it on the plate anyway. Kind of a weird way to respond to a reasonable request. After she had put our order in, I realized she hadn't asked how I wanted my burger done, and no surprise when it arrived burnt to a crisp. My girlfriend's turkey burger arrived with the wrong bun, in addition to the tomato (as expected) and lacking a pickle while mine did come with one. Consistency seems to be a problem here.So, verdict on the food: excellent fries, GREAT BBQ sauce (some of the best I have ever had), great brioche buns for the sandwiches, though I have no idea if their Angus meat is any good since it arrived thoroughly incinerated. My girlfriend reported her turkey burger was below average. No idea as to any appetizers, other entrees, or desserts since we did not partake on this occasion, though the plates heading to other tables looked quite attractive.I feel like they are still figuring out the menu, kitchen, and staff training, though this was a pretty lackluster experience for such a pricey place. Hope they improve as time goes on.Overall: 3.0 stars---Pros: - Attractive exterior and interior, lots of seating.- Free salsa is great.- Plenty of free parking in front.- Staff is pleasant but...Cons:- ...Not terribly accurate with their orders, nor are they that great at honoring customer requests.- These prices are surprisingly high for what you get.- The food items seem to be average at best, though elements of them were below average on this trip.

Decent menu, although I guess it changes a lot. The loaded Bloody Mary I came for was no longer available. So I went with a regular bloody mary which was decent but not worth $7. Went with the Brussels sprouts app and informed the server they were undercooked. He politely apologized and brought back another order exactly the same way... I was then told they simply flash fry them in the fryer. I do my own sprouts at home and every recipe I've ever seen calls for a pan fry to brown the flats, then broil high heat to crisp the out side and cook all the way through at the same time. Obviously the proper method takes too long ? I'd rather wait for my food and have it right than a hack shortcut. HOWEVER, the burger was great, I love the build your burger method they have here. The fries are awesome too!

The variety of foods were amazing and satisfying. We ate on the outside deck and the weather was delightful. The young lady that waited on us was kind and very pleasant to offer suggestions for our various tastes. We will go back again

We were staying at Oglebay cottages (visiting from FL) & wanted to have dinner nearby so we could make it back to 7/3 fireworks...first time dining at Alpha...best NY strip steak I've had in many years. Service was good...restaurant recently refreshed...looks great. Went back Saturday 7/6 for drive up/take-away smoked/grilled ribs and chicken event...cool set up outside...picked up 2 full racks of ribs and 2 half chickens which were best ever... highly recommend Alpha based on our experiences...

amazing, a great dining experience. From the fresh produce on the patio and amazing food. if you want fall off the bone ribs to brisket and pulled pork. This would be a great concept for Columbus, Ohio

The chicken wrap was all wrap. it was not even warm. it was mostly lettuce and just wrap. Fries were cold and dry. They brought "warmer" ones to me but they were the same. Will not be back!

Ordered the breaded chicken salad. The chicken was a chicken tender cut in slices and it was greens with 3 olives and 2 tomatoes. Very disappointing The citrus dressing was delicious.
