And, the owner is super sweet and chatty today. It's this crazy weather, sunny now threatening snow. But, we came for this good food. For starters, we had the basket of hush puppies and fried mushrooms. We are unanimous! Hush puppies are great, mushrooms not fried long enough. They are not your best. Entrees are a couple of catfish plates, both fried hard with extra seasonings one with Greek potatoes and green beans. The other one with fried okra and Greek potatoes. One stuffed grilled snapper with cabbage and Greek potatoes. DELISH!!! One pick 2 shrimp dinner with Peel and eat and popcorn shrimp with baked potato, green beans and a side of gumbo to go. Whew we full. To Go, Pooh Bear got the whole grill snapper with asparagus and Alfredo pasta and a side of fried green tomatoes. Mommy got popcorn shrimp dinner with Greek potatoes and green beans. Yay! Food is really good today. Y'all already know when sim happy, I shall return!!!

If you want a flawlessly executed steakhouse dinner in the Birmingham area without the pretentious price tag, this is your place. ​I ordered the 12oz ribeye with a baked potato, and both were cooked exactly to order. My wife started with their huge, fresh house salad before tackling the massive 16oz ribeye and a fully loaded baked potato. Honestly, the 16oz cut looked like something straight out of The Flintstones--it was beautifully charred, incredibly juicy, and absolutely massive. ​The service matched the stellar quality of the kitchen. Our waitress was incredibly attentive and kept my sweet tea topped off the entire night (which is no easy task!). ​We wrapped up the evening with a slice of chocolate cake. It was literally the size of a diner-style napkin dispenser--decadent, moist, and downright delicious. ​Budget-wise, it's a high-end steakhouse experience, so expect to spend a little money. However, compared to other premium steakhouses around Birmingham, their pricing is incredibly fair and easily on the lower end of the fine-dining spectrum. You get amazing portions, top-tier quality, and fantastic service. Highly recommended!

Second time here... This time for happy hour! We sat inside…read morewhere it was lit nicely but soon the lights went way down. The fire was going, which I found interesting considering it was a warm day. Im assuming for ambiance. Our waitress was ok, soft spoken and not the most outgoing. She seemed like she had something on her mind. Tonight was martini Monday, so had the pineapple martini and it was a little sweet but delicious. I would definitely get this one again. Tried the dirty martini, but tasted more like an extra dirty... Not my fav but still good. Our group ordered several apps to go with the drinks. Everything was amazing. I always find the food good, but the waiters/waitresses not totally with it. The runners have more personality.

The crab claws were the star... flavorful, and seasoned just right with that classic Cajun kick. Paired it with a drink and it made for a super laid-back, satisfying brunch vibe. Ate on the patio bc if it's a pretty day, why not? Service was quick and friendly, which I appreciated since I was just popping in. Overall, a great go-to if you want something casual but still packed with flavor. I'll definitely be back when I'm craving seafood without the full sit-down commitment.

This gem of a restaurant is in the Patron Creek shopping center. The inside was very lively, and it seemed smaller than when we came last. We had a party of 6 people and were seated quickly. The server was super nice and shared his recommendations with us when we asked. My husband (the birthday boy) ordered the Voodoo Chicken, and I ordered the Redfish Rockefeller. Our friends ordered gumbo, shrimp and grits, pasta alfreadeaux, and I don't remember what the other person ordered. Everyone was very happy with their orders. My redfish was super flavorful and I cleaned my plate. You know when the conversation gets quiet, the food must be delicious! My husband wanted the Crème Brûlée cheesecake to go and he said it was tasty. The only issue we had was the length of time it took for our extra order to get processed. After a while, we learned the frying oil was being changed and it would take a while to heat back up. We thought that someone should have told us something earlier. But it all worked out. We definitely will be back!

For drinks We got a old fashioned for hubbie, me a lemon drop and a Watermelon dream for my son This was the first lemon drop that I liked!!! For apps we got gator bites , fried calamari, and squid . The gator bites were good and tender, and the calamari and squid were fried lightly. Entrées, I got the snapper lemon grass. My son got a catfish Po boy that I swear was half a French loaf, and my husband got the platter with fried oysters, butterfly shrimp crawfish fries It was a lot of food and we had to take some home We still got dessert, though, which was a cream Brûlée I have just a few tweaks 1. You need to have somewhere with the dessert stated on your menu. Second, the butternut squash that I got with my fish, should've been done a touch more. It was still good. It just needed to be done a touch more. 3. Please fix the handicapped bathroom. It didn't want to lock . Regardless, it was a wonderful meal!! Our server was pretty on point. She was friendly. She was fast no complaints and she got tipped very well. I think her name was Briana O!! She was an excellent waitress! All in all, I think everyone enjoyed their meal . It ticked off all of my boxes service friendly /professionally, service fast/ asked about drinks/reasked/bathroom was nice/clean Thank you and We intend to come again!!!

I decided to try something new and ordered the Wicked Chicken based on her suggestion. It was delicious, full of flavor, and the portion was huge. I also had the bacon-wrapped sausage, which is always one of my favorites and never disappoints. The combination of great service, generous portions, and consistently good food is why I keep coming back. If you're looking for flavorful Cajun cuisine, Cajun Roux is definitely worth a visit.

Service = poor. Food = mediocre. Price = high. Server didn't offer water or bring any when asked…read more Food was brought out incomplete and wrong and never checked on until halfway through. Finally brought out the correct side after meal was finished and we refused it. The only thing they did right was take that off the check. Sign at the from says 'if you can't tip 20% then Cajun Roux isn't for you.' Well, if you can't provide even a basic level of service then you absolutely do not get a 20% tip. 0/10 would not recommend and will not be back.

Alexander's and then 3 places from 1976, the Bicentennial year. I lived in Birmingham in 2010, and my friend, who lived very close to the Hoover Mall told me about a cool promotion at J. Alexander's. I believe it was a Monday gambling deal. Alabama laws on gaming were strict; so this was maybe the closest to gambling I could get. It was some expensive steak, and the server would flip a coin, which I would call heads or tails. If I was correct, I'd get the steak free! I lost; so I paid the hefty bill. At least it was hefty for my underpaid job of that time. But I had fun, and I enjoyed the steak & nice service.
