Very unassuming looking place with Wonderful food, excellent service, strict attention to allergy concerns, and a quiet environment to just enjoy the food. No ear splitting music or deafening beat. Wonderful preparations. We had pork belly and crab cake as appetizers, roasted duck breast and crispy roasted sea bass with lobster tortellini as entrées, followed by an amazing lemon cream and wild Berry Napoleon. A refreshing sorbet was also served as s palate cleanser between courses. Everything showed a delicate touch of refinement and knowledge or what works.

We have been to Alcove twice in the past and loved it. For Valentines Day they had the option of seating at 5,7, or 9. We arrived for our 7pm reservation to find people waiting outside. None of the 5 pm tables were finished and there was a huge number of people waiting. We were told we might be seated at 7:45. The two women at the host entry seemed overwhelmed to me but they did not know how to handle the situation. One customer suggested they let people wait on the empty 2nd floor. If that truly was an option, they REALLY should have done this. Offering the huge number of people waiting a warm space and a glass of champagne might have diffused the ill will that was forming. The atmosphere was so negative that we left. A manager needed to address the waiting crowd in an apologetic manner.

Terrible service - slow and indifferent. Had to ask for water 15 minutes after sitting down. Server finally showed up at 25 minutes to take drink and dinner orders. First course served at 60 minutes. Finally got drinks 10 minutes later (had to ask for them). The main meat course and dessert were good; the rest of the food was mediocre at best. Several of the items were cold (not supposed to be - e.g. halibut).

We're an older couple and have been to numerous prix fixe dinners. For an unknown reason, this dinner seemed to be very disorganized. Our server was moving back & forth across the room & appeared disorganized and tense. We were seated for the 5:00 dinner and waited 45 minutes with only a glass of water on our table for our first course, no one offered bread or an explanation of the delay. When after waiting 40 minutes we asked about a glass of wine for the first course, our server seemed hassled and was not accommodating stating it was being prepared. Nothing was ready as it should have been. If the kitchen was having a problem, then an announcement was in order. As well as some bread. The food was good, presentation nice, the wine was good, but no one took the time to explain what wine we were served. People were being served the wrong meals and no one explained what we were eating. We were also charged for 3 meals when it was only the 2 of us. Overall it was a totally disorganized experience with wait staff disorganized and hassled. We expected better from the Alcove. We finished our meal and left at 7:45 and the 7:00 seating was standing & waiting for 45 minutes to be seated.

We come to Alcove several times a year. Last night was way below par. The first course arrived and was finished without the wine paring. The second course was halibut that was barely tepid with two of the smallest shrimp I’ve ever seen and three Brussels sprout leaves with an interesting flavor. We arrived at 5:00. The second of four courses was brought to the table at 6:30. (We had to cancel our car— paying anyway because the driver had arrived.) The beef tenderloin was served rare — no question from server about how we preferred. The au jus was non existent. The pavlova was fruit in a bowl with three quarter-sized pieces of meringue on top. Not a pavlova! We left through a line of diners waiting for the next seating.

The Alcove is consistently our go-to spot for a relaxing dinner where the food is consistently wonderful and the atmosphere is relaxing. It is one of the better spots in Evanston. My only complaint would be the cost of the wine - which I believe is overpriced.
