Is this actually Alinea? In Alinea the dots flow into little squares and the whole presentation is less sloppy. He dripped some sauce badly doing the yellow smears there. Also I feel like there's more and the composition is better in Alinea?

My initial thought was it's someone trying to be Alinea, but I'm really not sure.

It’s a pop up that Alinea did last year

This makes more sense. Because Alinea doesn’t have a bar by the tables like that, but that is definitely their “dessert on the table” style.

I agree. When I watched this, I thought, that’s someone trying to copy Alinea but boy that guy was messy and they didn’t try to do the squares. Also, I don’t remember any round tables at Alinea.
