    Sister #2 has Burger and Fries.  She had nothing left, said it was quite tasty.

    Service was great , I found out about the sour dough bread, it was so hot and delicious. Even the butter was good. My salmon was cooked perfectly, my rice and black beans were the perfect side dish. Ended the evening with "The Powerful Stuff". If you have not had that dessert , it's worth a try. I wouldn't recommend eating it alone, it was a chunky portion. If you like all the ingredients it is a a delicate balance. The Ambience is always at the right balance, the slightly dim lighting helps you to feel cozy but professional.

    Shrimp Taco's

    Had a girls lunch here to discuss some upcoming party planning. I was not very hungry and wanted something light so I decided on the shrimp tacos and let me tell you... Fabuliso, ambrosial, umami... I have not been a huge fan of shrimp tacos in the past however, I feel like I have been born again. And let's talk margarita... The Elite Margarita was perfectly handcrafted. James was our server and he was absolutely precious, professional and attentive. Just the kind of professionalism you would expect from J. Alexander's!

    9-2-2024 We all had another late night heading back home and always to our surprise, MOST places are closed by 9! This place stays open til 10! Thank God! It was 5 of us, got there around 9:20pm. Our waitress was Maddie. What a beautiful and pleasant young lady!! Very attentive too! I will request her next time we stop by! We ALL love the atmosphere at this restaurant! The food??? wow! Exceptional!! Everything is just superb! Even though we got there late, close to closing, we are never pressured to eat and leave so they can close! That means a lot! We truly enjoyed it and we will return when we are out of town again! Thank you all from our waitress to the cooks! Excellent job!! Kudos!

    STEAK MAUI with asparagus
    Erika A.

    J Alexander's was exactly what I needed today! My server, Jamie was heaven sent and the absolute best. I always enjoy the welcoming atmosphere. But tonight it was truly the service and food that made our day. My hubby ordered the prime rib. I didn't even have to chew it and it was so flavorful. This is coming from someone who likes their steak "cooked." I ordered the Steak Maui and the taste was impeccable. It was perfectly prepared. I can't forget the horseradish cream sauce. I could drink it!!!! So glad we decided to come out and dine. We will be back.

    Prime Rib

    My family and I came on a Saturday afternoon. We were seated immediately. Our waiter was super friendly but kept forgetting our drinks. We ordered the Mac and Cheese but the waiter brought fries. When we addressed this, he brought us the Mac and cheese but still charged us for the fries. The prime rib is always good- I've been here a few times. It's very soft and tender and is good on its own. No sauce or salt is needed. The crab dip was very rich, cheesy and had huge chucks on crab meat! There's plenty of parking. The ambience is very classy, though most were dressed casually. This is located next to the mall, so convenient after a day of shopping.

    Mmmm.  Steak

    Do they serve prime rib for lunch?

    Yes 8oz (prime rib sandwich), 12oz and 16oz. Also can add additional ounces for 2.50 per ounce. So theoretically you can order any size prime rib 8oz and up at any time of the day

    We have been twice, both times at the location on Jefferson Hwy…read more I always get the ribeye because I actually like flavor. The first time my ribeye was just as good as any steak I have anywhere, maybe except for one or two other restaurants. The second time while good, not did not touch the first experience. The butter served with the steak browned, maybe too much, and overwhelmed the steak. Both time my Wife ordered the filet on both occasions. The first time the steak was pretty good but this past time it was overcooked and the char on the outside was bordering on burnt. During our most recent visit I started with the wedge and my Wife the sensation salad. My wedge was good but not in the top 3 best I have ever had. My Wife was not pleased with the sensation salad at all. The sensation was very small and not enough dressing. We also ordered the Mac & Cheese and Potatoes Au Gratin. The Mac & Cheese was very good. It taste and looked a lot better than most of the pictures posted on Yelp. The potatoes were okay, not great but not horrible. The complimentary bread was good however, not close to even being top 10. We finished our meal with the New York Cheesecake. It was okay as well, you can find just as good of cheesecake at a lot of places.

    First class service all around. The entire staff pulls together, and no one is above picking up…read moredirty plates or bringing a replacement fork. The food was first class; fresh made, great flavors and seasonings, and cooked properly. Classy decor with, white table cloth (without white paper caps), tastefully decorated, and elegant. The deserts were very good, but hard to think you can eat any more after the feeling that you want to pick the plate at the end if the dinner. BUT, the deserts vanish from the table like magic. This is a place fore special occasions and any time you want a great meal.

    I had really been looking forward to trying Parrain's Seafood, but unfortunately my experience was…read moredisappointing. Our waitress, Kate M., didn't have the best customer service. She came across as short, unfriendly, and overall not very pleasant. I first ordered a Banana Foster's Martini, but she came back and said they didn't have the ingredients. No problem--I asked for an Espresso Martini instead. A few minutes later, after bringing everyone else's drinks, she returned and simply said they couldn't make that either and asked if I wanted something else. At that point, I just declined. When it was time to order, our table had nine people. She took my husband's order, then went around the table taking everyone else's order. By the time she got back to me, she said, "Okay, is that it?" I had to remind her that she hadn't taken my order yet. I ordered the crab and corn bisque, a salad, and the stuffed catfish with creamed spinach. The salad came out quickly and was very good. Then everyone else at the table received their meals while I only received my bisque. After waiting, I was told my stuffed catfish "didn't come out right" and had to be remade. At that point, I honestly wondered if it was a joke. It wasn't. By the time my entrée arrived, everyone else was nearly finished eating. To the restaurant's credit, they did remove the stuffed catfish from my bill, and I appreciated that. However, the entire experience left me feeling overlooked from start to finish. My biggest suggestion would be for our waitress to work on her customer service. A smile goes a long way. Saying things like "Give me that plate," slamming cups onto the table, and appearing annoyed throughout the meal doesn't create a welcoming dining experience. Hospitality is just as important as the food, and I hope this feedback is taken constructively.
