Good but I don't understand the hype. We had a party of 4 and eveyone loved their food, but I thought it was good but not great. I liked my chicken piccata but didn't enjoy my side items. I ordered the Couscous and mashed potatoes. I will say the Desserts were "lights out" the key lime pie was fantastic!! My friend ordered the chocolate cake and she loved it! read more

Our custom when driving to Florida is to stop in Chattanooga to rest. Part of this custom is to have dinner at J. Alexander's which has an abundance of comfortable booths and table seating. Everyone is warmly welcomed when entering the restaurant. Our server, Cory, was right on top of things and our drinks and dinner did not disappoint. We will continue to patronize this restaurant. read more

My recent dinner at J. Alexander's at Hamilton Place was nothing short of exceptional. We had a reservation for a party of 8 at 7PM and were seated immediately -- a great start to a fantastic evening. Let me just say this: Shane, our waiter, was the true highlight of the night. From the moment we sat down to the very last bite, he delivered impeccable service with genuine warmth and personality. He made everyone feel welcomed, relaxed, and well taken care of -- truly above and beyond. The ambiance of the restaurant exudes quiet luxury -- stylish, upscale, and perfect for both special occasions and elevated dinners out. I ordered the Steak Maui with smashed potatoes and a side Caesar salad -- absolute perfection. Others in our group tried the roasted chicken, NYO mac & cheese, and ribs with fries, and every single plate was a hit. The flavors were rich, bold, and expertly seasoned. Drink selections? 10/10. Not a single miss. And because it was the first visit for everyone except me, Shane surprised the table with complimentary desserts to share -- a kind and unforgettable gesture that left all of us smiling. If you're looking for great food, an elegant vibe, and standout service, this is it. Ask for Shane -- you won't regret it! read more

We have enjoyed several visits. The service food and drinks are very good. We particularly enjoyed Eliana as our waitress.

We Love this place !! The service and ambiance here is amazing every single time. We normally stick with the steak Maui, mashed potatoes, and a side of orzo rice -- it's our go-to and it's consistently great. I switched it up this visit and tried the Brussels sprouts as well , and they were absolutely delicious. Highly recommend! read more

Well...your restaurant has redeemed itself. Although, the food was somewhat mediocre and undercooked, our server whose name I believe was Carson, made up for it. His attention to detail and professionalism went the extra mile. He especially paid great attention to my wife, making her feel comfortable and heard. Interestingly, we watched Carson share the same level of service with other tables. We will ask to be seated in his section on our next visit! read more

Popped in to J's this afternoon for a quick cocktail. The bartender behind the bar clearly ignored us. Two ladies came in thru the bar door sat down & was presented with menus immediately. At this point my husband and I had already been sitting for 5-7 min. I know J's can get busy on a Sunday afternoon after church however this clearly was not the issue. We had a drinks , paid the check & , left. Just dissappointed as he clearly saw us sitting. Too many other restaurants to frequent if service cannot be provided. Will still visit again just a bummer. read more

We went here for my aunts 72nd birthday. She goes to this restaurant in Boca ( a lot) and she figured since she could not find a fancy Italian restaurant, she wouldn't go to her second choice. I had the ribs which were meh at best. The ceaser salad was meh at best as well. Not somewhere I'd go back to personally read more

J.Alexander's is one of my all time faves. We lived in Chattanooga for over a decade, and when in the area now, we always make a point to visit! My go-to order is the grilled salmon (it's amazing) with the orzo & wild rice. Their house salad is one of the best around! My daughter ordered a grilled chicken Caesar salad, along with a side of fries. Desserts are also excellent. My favorite is their key lime pie. Service is always stellar, and I've never had a bad experience here! read more

Shout out to the lemon drop, Blanton whiskey and Chattanooga whiskey at the bar. read more

I dined here on a work dinner with my team and it was excellent! The tables are large and spaced out, nobody is on top of each other and it's also not loud so conversation was easy. We had the spinach artichoke dip which was delicious, they refilled our chips as well! I had the steak burger with fries, the burger was good but the fries are so good if you're a fry person!! Think Steak 'n Shake style fries but elevated. Our waitress was kind and prompt. read more

We were in the area for work and decided to grab something to eat. We started out with the grilled artichokes with aioli dipping. These were really good and would get again for sure. I had the steak burger and fries (with aioli sauce on side). The burger was perfect and tasty great. The fries were terrible I asked for crispy and they were not even close. The fries are shoestring style so I would pass unless you like this kind. They need to have thick steak fries. I would have sent back but our waiter was too busy to care about us it seemed. The other meal was a filet with side of coleslaw. Both were great and I wish I would have ordered the coleslaw. One of the best I have had, odd I know but it was. Would go back again when I am back in the area. read more

I came here while I was in town to celebrate a friend's birthday. We were sat in a big enough booth for all 5 people to comfortably enjoy. We sat under a really nice well lit light which I appreciated so I could read their menu in good lighting. Whenever I go to a new restaurant, I love to order a good shrimp taco and I was glad to see they had that on their menu. I ordered the Crispy shrimp tacos with black beans and rice. My friends ordered the steak and fries, steak burger, cypress salad and French dip sandwich (last two plates mentioned not pictured). When my plate arrived I was excited because it looked so pretty and mouth watering. When I tell you the shrimp was delicious I feel like words can't truly convey how scrumptious these tacos were until you eat them yourself. The portion of the shrimp on the taco was perfect and were fried to perfection. The black beans and rice were seasoned really well. They had yellow bell peppers cooked in them which added to their delicious taste. Our server Jersey, was very nice and caring. One of my friends didn't care for their steak. They didn't say anything but didn't want to take it home either. The server asked if everything was ok with the steak or if it didn't taste well. Although my friend said it was ok, Jersey wanted to take it back to explain to the manager because she said it wasn't satisfactory to the customer. I thought that was a nice touch from a server because most servers wouldn't care. It shows that Jersey will go over and beyond to make sure the customer enjoys their dish. Her service was great. We all enjoyed a chocolate cake and vanilla ice cream for our friend's birthday. I'm not a big fan of chocolate cake but that cake was AMAZING. Everyone including the birthday friend enjoyed it. The cake was heavy but so moist and very very warm. A warm chocolate cake with a big scoop of ice cream was the perfect way to end our lunch. I enjoyed the food, service and ambiance of this restaurant. I can't wait to come back here in the future for a nice lunch or dinner read more

What a disappointment.....was one of our favorite restaurants in Hamilton Place. Stopped in for lunch....thought we both ordered the wrong choices....our mistake....mediocre grilled chicken sandwich and a prime rib sandwich with fat and gristle hard to chew..... if you get the French fries eat them fast....they get cold really quick....my wine was $14.00 a glass for red....only draft was Yuengling, $8.00 each. Service & ambiance is second to none but will think again before stopping in for $100.00 lunch with tip. read more

J. Alexander's is a wonderful place to break bread for a meal and have drinks! It's top level food, service, cleanliness, and atmosphere! Better than a tri-fecta! I've worked so many years on projects at a confectionery factory there, and dined many times at this place. The food is just spectacularly delicious! All of it. I'll give a special mention to the smoked salmon dip and the Norwegian Grilled Salmon for some of the best I've ever had. The sauce is a little bit dill and a perfect pairing. My father was with me one week to admire the projects I completed with my team and had the salmon. We had to go back one more time before we left he liked it so much. One special memory was when he was in hospice for leukemia, in his last week alive, I came to his house after a trip for work to Chattanooga, and I came in to see him. He was so happy to see me, but I must confess he asked if I had that grilled salmon at J's that we had. It must be good to bring it up as a special meal together! I'll always think of my dad when I eat this. It came with spaghetti squash and some red marinara that complimented it well. Please try it, you'll like it! read more

Passing through the area and j Alexander's is probably my lady's favorite restaurant, so it was a must. It's always worth it I have to admit. The place is always clean and the staff always friendly. Food was prepared flawlessly and tasted delicious! We haven't tried the bar but apparently it's very good as well as we have not ever been there that it wasn't packed with many patrons. The pricing is on the upper side but not to the point of shying away from and the menu is not so broad that quality is lost in the kitchen. Definite staple for the restaurant scene in the area and I am certain that we visit again when in the area. read more

Got some chicken strips. One thing I can say is if you want chicken strips go to Publix. The service, on the other hand, was difficult to watch at best. When you have a waiter that carries two drinks at a time you know you have a rookie...and we did. Hey, they may not be what they once were but at least they were expensive. read more

J. Alexander's - Leftover chicken strips - Steakhouses Near Me - Chattanooga, Tennessee

I once loved Alexander's. I hadn't been there for a long while due to long work hours. I got up one morning with thoughts of their roasted grill chicken and decided we were going to stop by. I was so disappointed. It was nowhere near the chicken I loved. My husband was also disappointed in his meal. I didn't post a rating at that time because I felt my expectations were set too high. A month later, an out of town family member wanted to have a BD celebration there. I went to give it a second chance. We all said the same Alexander's food didn't have the flavors of the past. It's not bad but it's just not special like before. But, service was great as usual. read more

Food and service is always great! Amazing atmosphere, just add yourself to the reservation list.

Their service is amazing, the food and drinks perfection. The Cypress Salad with grilled chicken is divine, our favorite meal there. It is a beautiful restaurant with plenty of ambiance for a special night out. Highly recommend! read more

Upscale steakhouse chain, food isn't particularly memorable but it's the service here that is absolutely five star every visit. Comfortable booths with dark-enough lightning to create a sense of ambience but not so dark that you can't see across the aisle or down the stairs (it happens!). Nothing on the menu at JA is bad, but nothing is exceptionally great either. What the restaurant does do very well is maintain consistency: they don't change up their core menu and the food comes to the table exactly as you had it last time, which is presumably why you ordered it again. Weak point is dessert. Change it up a little, maybe a bread pudding or a creme brûlée. Something seasonal perhaps instead of always key lime pie, chocolate cake, carrot cake. read more

The steak was very good as well as the service. I will absolutely go back when I'm in Chattanooga.

The ambiance is decent and the food is good. The service is always very good. It's a little bit pricier than most restaurants are the same or similar type of quality but it is a local favorite of a lot of people. I've been there at least two or three times and everything is always been good, but pricey. I haven't noticed the full appeal other than it's better than other restaurants in the surrounding area unless you go to the downtown area. read more

I'm disappointed because this is my favorite chain. The food here is AMAZING. I just got two to-go cypress salads, no modifications for $45 pre tip. The serving size is 1/3 what you get if you sit down. It's so sad they have chosen to short the consumer and charge more than ever. I will not be ordering to go anymore, dine in only and maybe not even that. read more

I cannot rave enough about J. Alexanders! Their food is absolutely delicious, the service is always up to par and the atmosphere is always enjoyable. Their carrot cake is something to rave over! It is made from scratch and then served with hot icing that melts your heart away. I love love love love J's. It will always be my favorite restaurant.

This, being our halfway point from Michigan to Florida is where we always stop. J Alexander's is always included in that stop, and it was again very enjoyable. We were seated in a booth near the windows, which was great. Our server, Jacob, was quite accommodating and friendly. We had the Hong Kong shrimp as an appetizer and the entrées were Mr. Jack's Chicken and rattlesnake pasta. Both were excellent and the servings were more than enough. The cocktails were generous and the Keylime pie was the grand finale. read more

Our poor experience was at Hamilton Place, Chattanooga, TN, and it began with a hostess who wanted to seat my wife and me in a six-person semi-circle booth (with tables of all sizes everywhere). She seemed miffed when I asked for a smaller table where we could actually see and hear one another. Once seated at the appropriate table, our waitress took our order and my dinner came to me cold and having barely touched the grill (Ahi Tuna). I sent it back to "be cooked," but it came back again only barely eatable and nearly tasteless. The side dishes were equally tasteless. To add more discomfort to the evening, our waitress copped an attitude. With so many good choices around, this restaurant could easily be avoided altogether and a better experience had, with far more reasonable prices. read more

Order the prime rib and carrot cake. Neither will disappoint! Service was great, too!

I ordered the Mahi Mahi Elaine ordered the Lump Crab Cakes. I started with a side Caesar it was perfect!!! The Mahi was the best I have ever had. Elaine's carb was all crab and some cake. Natasha was our server and she was excellent. The decor is upscale Steak House with a huge Wine offering. A definite must go to. read more
