Went here a while ago to have our early dinner. The food that we ordered was nice. I ordered the double boneless chicken barbecue. The texture of the chicken was nice and it was also juicy. It is best served with the barbecue sauce, but not too many. The serving size was also great. You can be full already at their servings. And the staff was also good accommodating. The parking space was limited only. :)
One of the best filipino restaurant I would go back to again and again. All the dishes are really good and will comfort you . The chicken and pork barbeque is to die for .
Their chicken, their java rice, and peanut sauce is still the best out there. Although they are more expensive than the other bbqs you can see the difference in quality. The smoothness of their peanut sauce 😋 even their other food are great.
Been dining here since I was a kid and they may have renovated this place a few times! Their latest renovation is the best in terms of utilizing space! Food quality remains consistent throughout the years and more parking dedicated to Alex III right across their restaurant which is perfect as this area has very limited parking!

Chicken barbecue is one of my fave comfort foods and when I want this dish there is only one place that comes to mind Alex III! Try out their other dishes for variety.
Best local restaurant for me serving comfort food favorites. Must not miss their adobong pusit, chop suey, chicken bbq, and the best camaron rebosado in Manila. Great service and value.
Still can't beat the old classic Mixed Boneless Chicken and Pork Barbeque P319.00
This restaurant has been around for ages and they still consistently serve great food. What's more is they still retain the good ol' unlimited bottled java sauce as compared to the other brand.
Good ole Aristocrat meal of pork and chicken BBQ with their inimitable peanut sauce. I had their combination of boneless chicken and a stick of pork BBQs. I couldn't complain. Bring me back to nostalgia when we frequented their flagship branch along Malate/Roxas Blvd (I still believe that the latter is the best Aristocrat branch). There's no need to describe their BBQs -- always good with a consistent taste when matched with their peanut sauce.
We had some side dishes, their tokwa't baboy and okoy. The Tokwa't baboy was great. I think they use Japanese tofu here to provide that really soft creamy tofu inside. I would have preferred the outside to be a bit more fried and crunchier though. It came with with sliced mushrooms which was a perfect match. Their okoy was likewise very nice. I just found them a bit too thick and would have wanted them crunchier.
Alex III has always been one of the go to places when you want chicken barbecue. We ordered their Tuna Sashimi, Camaron Rebusado and of course, Boneless Chicken Barbecue.
The Tuna Sashimi was fresh and the slices were thick.
The Camaron was tasty and flavorful. It also had a large serving.

Le sigh, again, another family lunch with relatives visiting from the US (I'm not complaining though - free food!). They wanted a Filipino place near the area and thought of Alex III. And even though I live just a few blocks away, I've never been, so I was excited to try their food. We ordered:
Chicharon bulaklak
Delicious! Not too greasy/oily. I only had one piece though because... I'm pregnant and I try to eat right (keyword: TRY). Hahaha
Kare-kare
North (my husband) said the meat was tender. I only eat vegetables in kare-kare. I prefer this dish to have more vegetables though, but I still enjoyed it :)
Inihaw na bangus & BBQ
The pork barbecue was good, as was the bangus, but the serving was so small! There were 10 of us so we literally just had a bite each. We didn't expect the portion to be that small so next time we'll know to order more.
Adobong pusit
This was good. The pusit wasn't overcooked/chewy. I enjoyed it :)
Lengua
I'm not a big fan of lengua! So, I tried a bite and it was okay. It was soft and kind of fatty, but I couldn't finish the serving given to me. My cousin Carlo from the states though... Devoured the whole thing.
Honey Chicken
This was my favorite! I liked it with their special sauce. The chicken was juicy and full of flavor!
Halo-halo
It was like an ordinary halo-halo for me. Nothing special (sorry, Alex III, but you need to step up your halo-halo game) and not yummy enough to be memorable.
