I stopped for lunch and ordered the All American Cheeseburger ($18). I got a good-sized burger with all the fixings and a generous portion of shoestring fries. Delicious! A small (8 oz.) beer was $8.Elija W. was very attentive.

Food was great! Wife had MAUI steak and was in love with the sauce. I went with the Filet Mignon with mac and cheese and both where really good! Service was great. Good place to go for special occasions.

My wife and I had dinner here on 7-31. We both ordered the veggie burger with french fries. We have not ate here in years and agreed the veg patty and glaze has changed for the worse. Sadly we kept eating it. I was hungrier than my wife and in a zone so I complained as I ate hoping it would get better. It didn't. Our waitress hardly returned to our table. In the past everyone served your table and that was impressive. You were given delicious croissants with your salad and a jug of water when you were seated. Not so today. Today you have to wait for your server to finish their break to get a water refill. In the bathroom I saw tiny black flies flying around the wall mirrors. We complained to the Manager first. I told her about the food and flies. She mentioned a recent plumbing issue. She offered desert for the meals. We asked for a refund. She said the District Manager was in and offered to send her over. The DM wouldn't refund any portion of our meals or the cost of the offered deserts because we ate almost all of our meals. She was correct. We did. She said she has worked here 10+ years and assured us veggie patty recipe has not been changed. Of course it changed. The patties went from solid red from beet juice and topped with a sweet glaze to a brown patty with beet cubes topped with an almost burnt overpowering ginger sauce. We paid and left. Sometimes there is no way around a bad meal. It's a difficult lesson. Complain quickly about meals, then get up and leave.

Steak was perfectly cooked and its taste wasn't hidden under layers of seasoning but was well seasoned.

Honestly it is very overhyped. I went here a couple days ago with my girlfriend and we waited for like 20 minutes for a seat. It was a ridiculous amount for very bland salty food. The servers and staff were lovely we did have manager ask us how was everything. It was just very disappointing food for the cost and wait.

The salmon dinner was the best I have ever had. It was cooked to perfection! For a night to remember J. Alexander’s is the restaurant to go!

I really enjoyed the food and the servers were wonderful. Though I overheard a manager in a blue uniform was constantly following servers and viewing our table made me and the Mrs. feel weird.

Most overrated restaurant I’ve ever been to. I rarely write reviews but this was so unbelievably mid. No one was friendly, food was so bland, and the seafood tasted like it came frozen from Aldi. Worst $100 bucks I’ve ever spent.

Went here to celebrate my graduation from college and had the best steak of my life. I'm almost sad about it because everything else from now on will be a downgrade. If I ever did a horrible crime and got the electric chair I'm requesting this for my last meal and we can both be cooked medium rare.

Service was excellent, big props to Koby.

Always have a wonderful experience here! Great food, drinks, & service! Making a reservation is the best way to go if you’re headed in for dinner. Steak egg rolls are bomb! 😋😋
