Alexander's Mediterranean Restaurant Alexander's Mediterranean Restaurant is located at 1800 Garret Way, Pocatello Idaho, 83201. As an Arabic restaurant, its goal is to share the Arabic culture with the American and other international people. The restaurant was started by a Saudi Arabian named Mohammed Al-Shammarey, who is studying at Idaho State University. The restaurant cost him $37,500. It includes nice decor, new tables, booths, Middle Eastern rugs, houseware, condiments, and halal food. Alexander's Mediterranean Restaurant is open six days a week, but is closed on Sundays. Alexander's offers all kinds of Arabic, Greek, Mediterranean, and Turkish dishes. Its buffet opens at 11:30 A.M and closes at 3:00 P.M. There is enough space to feed between 150 to 200 people at one time. The buffet includes hummus, salad, three different types of chicken, and some traditional Saudi dishes. It costs $11 per person, and includes a drink. After the buffet is over, the restaurant closes from 3:00 P.M to 5:00 P.M. It reopens at 5:00 with all kinds of food that people want. There is a huge menu which has all kinds of Arabic, Greek, Mediterranean, and Turkish dishes. It is not easy to bring the halal food because it is kind of rare in the United States, especially in Pocatello. So, the owner always goes to Salt Lake city Albuainain to get some from the Arabic store. When I met the owner, he told me that they will offer Italian food and Spanish food. The reason why he has not yet offered these types of food yet is because of his financial condition. Alexander's Mediterranean Restaurant was voted the fifth best restaurant in Pocatello. The owner however, believes that he has the best restaurant in Pocatello. All of the employers and waitresses are nice to their costumers, and have excellent service. Also, the owner of the restaurant always asks the customers about the food. In addition, the restaurant’s design is a mix between the eastern and the western cultures. It has booths and shears with western styles, the ground and roof are eastern styles. Also, the parking lot is big enough to fit between 20 to 30 cars. Additionally, they have a card calls a gift card which let people to get a free food when they use the gift card three times. It is a masterful method to earn more customers. This experience was helpful, and I really enjoyed it. I learned a lot about how restaurants are ran, and what it takes to run them. It is not easy to make a restaurant, and it is expensive. This restaurant is a great example of a Mediterranean restaurant with western and Eastern themes. It's nice to share the customs and traditions with people who do not know what the Mediterranean culture is.
