    Shrimp Taco's
    Pamela H.

    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

    As soon as Ii walked in, I loved it. The smell of the firewood they use fills the entire restaurant. Speaking of which, it's upscale contemporary.... Like what you would expect to find at a nice steak focused restaurant. It's a bit dark and I suggest you wear something nice but they will accept your money no matter what you have on. The prices are on par with food of this quality but I don't think it's over-priced. I enjoyed one of the specials: Montreal ribeye. Dry aged with Montreal seasoning (whatever that is) and a side of loaded mashed potatoes. Excellent. I also managed to sample the same cut off the regular menu which is marinated. It was very good as well. I'm not sure which I liked better. Either way... You can't lose. Oh. And the wait staff was excellent as well. I'll definitely be back.

    Mr. Jack's Chicken Fingers
    Christie D.

    Another great meal here! I ordered the Mr. Jack's Chicken Fingers from the starter menu and it was the perfect portion for a meal. The chicken was fried to perfection and seasoned just right. The fries were fantastic as they always are here. I love that they're shoe-string style. Both the mustard and BBQ dipping sauces for the chicken tenders were excellent. I would definitely order this again!

    A great option near the mall - I was generally pleased with everything I tried on my first visit to J Alexander's. Service was really excellent with an elegant restaurant interior.

    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

Carrabba's sprinkler system had been activated before I arrived at 8p. The Silly Rabbit Comedy Club was offering a late show so I was hoping to dine in. I was greeted by an attractive group of staff upon entering who showed me to the bar area. I was happy that the bar area offers booths. The menu has no prices(should've been a red flag.) There's an old saying,"if you have to ask, you probably can't afford it." I'd counter with,"if you have to conceal it, it's probably not worth it." Ding, ding, ding! I tried winging it so I ordered the Petite Filet Mignon, Flemings Potatoes, and a tea. The interior was nice and dark as I like my dining establishments to be. I attempted to view the main dining area but the Christmas decoration(border) was literally blocking the view. I couldn't see without standing. There were only two of us at the bar. It was creeping to 845p now and I asked my waitress to change it "to go." Immediately my order is presented to me. My bill was three times what I expected to pay. All I received was meat and potatoes. I've prepared better tasting steak in a crock pot. I've thought about returning but I won't after reading this is standard for Flemings.

I have lived in BR for 6 years now. Many departments at LSU take guests there and in that time, Building 5 has done nothing to improve its parking lot. The restaurant sits underneath an overpass and the parking is pothole marked unpaved gravel. This means that there is no room for wheelchairs or accommodations for anyone who is differently-abled to get into the restaurant. The whole restaurant makes no room for handicapped persons. On the occasion I did get food, the food is slightly overpriced. All meats were cooked adequately but the food was lukewarm probably owing to sitting in the kitchen under the heat lamp than being delivered promptly. When I have gone, I regularly have to ask for refills on soda as I am the designated driver often for department functions. Servers pay you no heed if you do not buy alcohol. Because I go here because of academic reasons, I would barely go here myself. I've been here many times and found it wanting. It's an ableist place in its infrastructure. It's fine I'm atmosphere as a cocktail bar but would little recommend it to people I call friend.
