    CARROT CAKE
    Katie F.

    I have found my new favorite restaurant. Wow. Every single bite was enjoyable. The sauce on the brassiere chicken... I could have drank it

    Calamari
    Jenny A.

    I don't know how we have lived in the area for 10 years and this was our first trip to J Alexander's. First the service was awesome. Parker our waiter was friendly, helpful and made sure we felt special on our first visit. In addition every person who walked by assessed the table and took care of our needs (water, refills, clears plates etc). That teamwork made the experience even better. The restaurant itself was cozy and relaxing with a great ambiance. The food was excellent! Probably the best calamari I've ever had, steak cooked perfect and what a yummy espresso martini then to top it all off the carrot cake was to die for. We will definitely be back.

    They have Rattlesnake pasta on the menu for good now!!! Awesome!!!! Love it ! It's a delicious dish! And with toast! You won't be disappointed!

    CARROT CAKE
    Jamie M.

    I forgot how good j Alexander used to be.. well every-thing was amazing! The ribs were coming straight off the bone.. the slaw just right and who doesn't love show string fries!? The carrot cake was served warm!! Sooo good! Shot out to our server Tyler, he was amazing answering all of our questions and served us with smile!

    Martini and side car
    Mike S.

    A real pleasant alternative to the top tier priced steak houses around here. The feel wood interior makes dining cost (even still used a real candle). Drinks are generous and meat cooked over wood fire is I think unique style in the area. Wait Staff are Friendly without being intrusive. Be sure to make reservations because even on Tuesday they are near full by 6pm (we went at 5 to get ahead of the dinner crowd).

    Absolutely a solid choice with a great diverse menu with steaks and sush. Great beer and contail menu and superior table service especially from Mary. A can't miss dining experience.

    Firecracker Roll
    Taylor V.

    Came here for lunch and the place was BUSY. However the ambiance was perfect. The service was exceptional- we had Nick and he took excellent care of us by recommending his persona favorites and continuing to give us top quality care while we dined. The cocktails were great, the firecracker roll was insane- I had low expectations and now I haven't stopped thinking about it, it was perfect. Then we shared the Prime Rib. Cooked to perfection- we paired it with the carrots as they were the vegetable of the day ( I wouldn't order them again) and the Mac and cheese. I don't even like Mac and cheese but this was so good. Will definitely be back!

    1/2 French Dip and fries
    Rochelle V.

    My first time here. Visiting for a week in CO and my friend said they had good French dips so we went for lunch. Probably in the top 3 of all French dips I've ever had. They definitely do not skimp on the meat, and it's cooked perfectly...slightly rare just how it should be. The fries were also excellent. Thin and crispy. The photo you are seeing is half of the sandwich and half of the fries, very large portions! Service was friendly and quick, our waiter Brian was very attentive.

    Veggie burger
    Kaitlin C.

    Service was absolutely exceptional and very attentive. The key lime pie was the star of the show (coming from someone that doesn't even like KLP). We had to take an extra piece home! The veggie burger was not for me... the housemade patty was very sweet and felt over fried/greasy. I like more veggie forward burgers so this might be a good swap for someone that usually eats meat though! There is a large parking lot out front.

Frequent refills, quick service, and in general came off as a good person. The food was BEYOND amazing, I can't reiterate enough how hood it all looked and tasted. We ordered their shrimp and crawfish fondeaux and garlic bread for the table, which was incredible, possibly the best garlic bread and fondeaux I've ever had! Their Caesar salad was good, but what really stood out was the blackened catfish. I love catfish, and this catfish was perfectly grilled and seasoned. The rice and beans on the side were great as well, the beans being slightly smokey and spicy. I really, really cannot recommend this place enough!

I'm 8 months pregnant so I currently can't eat seafood and opted for the Chicken tenderloin salad, to also share with my toddler.

We went during weekday lunch time, and while it wasn't very busy we still wait almost 45 minutes before we received our dishes or appetizers. When they came out, the waiter let us know it was because the red beans and rice needed to be made fresh. But he still could have brought everything else out? We asked him for a kids water cup too and he just brought us an empty cup.

FOOD Overall good food, if a little odd. The baked gnocchi and cherry tomatoes in a pesto sauce turned out to be a lot soupier than I expected. My son's pork was well-received. The house-specialty flatbread we had for the table was good. Desserts are served in, effectively, shot glasses. I don't know that it means the portions were any smaller than on a plate, and it made it convenient for the waiter to bring out a display carrier, but it was still a bit odd. One thing that struck me was that everything -- from the flatbread, to the Caesar salad, to the gnocchi, to the dessert, was just a bit sweeter than I was expecting. Not offputtingly so, but a little surprising. SERVICE Service was reasonably good, and our waiter generally showed up when we needed them. I had a dirty knife (promptly replaced with a full utensil kit). ATMOSPHERE The place is just plain noisy. At a booth for four, we had problems with conversation, and in hearing the waiter. Part of this is because they have about a half-dozen too many tables squeezed into the main dining area, among other things guaranteeing you'll brush or bump into chairs on your way to your table, even on the perimeter. One the one hand, it's a good sign that they're doing good business in pulling in a lot of customers; on the other hand, it contributes to making it not a good place for an intimate date. NET-NET We've eaten here before, with similar noise and crowd issues (the holidays are especially challenging). I wouldn't object to be invited by someone to dine here again, but I wouldn't go out of my way to make reservations here myself.
