    CRISPY CALAMARI
    Elena D.

    Lovely restaurant in north Naples, tasty appetizers, salads were HUGE had enough for two days, good value. The cornbread croutons were amazing, nice touch. A friend ordered the mac and cheese side and that was probably the best mac of my life. Service was a bit slow so would give 4.5 stars

    Mocktail
    Kitty A.

    Me and a few friends are attending a conference in the area and we decided to go to J. Alexander's yesterday because one of the ladies said the food was delicious. When we arrived, the hostess was there with a smile and some conversation. She was a mature woman with a big personality and the plus was that we went back today and she remembered us. We were quickly seated both days. Yesterday server was nice. I would give her a 7/10. Today our server was Brandon and this guy did his thang. He was personable, he was friendly, he was knowledgeable, he was accommodating. Customer service at its best! The restroom is clean and has a nice modern design. The restaurant itself has a high-end look, the decor is beautiful and I love the seating arrangement. The food is amazing and the portions are not shy. Everything was seasoned just right. The mac and cheese was scrumptious and I never order Mac and cheese when I'm out, but this had gouda cheese and I was intrigued. I had the emerald shrimp the first day and the cilantro shrimp today and both were delectable. Everyone enjoyed their food I did order a mocktail (I don't drink alcohol) and it refreshing. I was satisfied We also had appetizers that was, as the young people say...kitty Definitely a place to visit, you won't be disappointed.

    Steak and Baked Potato
    Alan B.

    Still one of my favorite spots in town for a great meal and friendly staff. This place is SO consistently tasty! I'm turning into a regular quickly! Try the steak and fries (I sometimes sub out for a baked potato). The quality of beef is exceptional, and it's always prepared exactly to the temperature I ask.

    Pork chop, Cole slaw and couscous

    First time to visit and omg where have they been all my life!!! Excellent ambience!!! Excellent service and the food!!! Wow - I'm speechless!!!

    SLOW ROASTED PRIME RIB

    Prime Rib was cooked very well, but the mashed potatoes didn't taste quite right. They could have been creamier and more flavorful. Instead they had a more of a blunt flavor with a weird after taste that me and my party didn't quite like and were a letdown. Over all food was okay service was about the same. But I personally would not comeback.

    Ordered medium rare, got well done.

    See all

    Decent food but terrible loud, making dining experience less desirable. Better off season.

    Consistently good food. HUGE portions. Save room for the warm carrot cake. My only complaint is that it can get very loud and noisy at times

    Ocean Prime - Lobster Mac and cheese

    Ocean Prime

    (435 reviews)

    $$$

    Ocean Prime was a date-night splurge during a midwinter break of many other splurges. The start of…read moredate night was made happier by nearby easy parking in the city garage at 4th Ave and 8th St. Upon entry, the first thing I noticed was how loud OP was! In this case, it was a sign of good times, as the noise was mainly table conversations in a full house. Our open-table reservation was ready, and we were seated at a table near the "wine wall." After pondering the possibilities, our evening went like this: *Cocktails: "Take two" for her: Strawberry-Infused Botanist Gin, Mango, Citrus Basil, Foam; a bourbon old-fashioned for him: Four Roses Small Batch Bourbon, Aperol, Simple Syrup, Angostura Aromatic Bitters (a cherry too, perhaps Luxardo). *We made the strategic decision to avoid soups/salads to make sure there was room for dessert, and went directly to entrees: Chilean Sea Bass (best seller, we hear) for her: Broccolini, Pearl Onion, Potato Puree, Truffle Vinaigrette; and the Halibut special with gnocchi for him. Both EXCELLENT! A glass of Sauvignon Blanc with each. *Dessert: Crème Brulée for her, a much anticipated Ten Layer Carrot Cake for him, and decaf coffee + cream for both. Was saving room for dessert worth it? Yes, absolutely. My compliments to Todd, perhaps the best server I remember during the past year. Why? He seemed to have no agenda except to please the customer. There was no pressure to order quickly, and nothing about our order fazed him. Gluten-free requests were handled flawlessly. No soup or salad? He did not even blink, as if he himself thought it was an excellent idea. Todd, thank you for being the perfect meal guide and steward.

    Ocean Prime in Naples absolutely lived up to the hype. We started with their signature smoky…read morecocktail -- the Berries & Bubbles -- and honestly, it was a show all by itself. The waiter pours everything tableside over dry ice and the smoke just rolls out and sizzles everywhere. Super fun presentation, but more importantly, the drink actually tasted amazing: refreshing, balanced, high-quality, and not overly sweet. We ordered a couple sushi rolls to start and they were excellent: fresh, clean flavors, beautifully done, and a great way to kick things off. For my main, I got the twin lobster tails, which were cooked perfectly and served with real melted butter (not butter flavored liquid margarine you get at a lot of places). You could really taste the quality. The service was next-level. Truly impeccable. Every sip, every first bite, our server was right there checking in, but never in an annoying way. Just attentive, polished, and professional the entire night. Great food, great drinks, incredible service, and a beautiful atmosphere. Ocean Prime nailed every part of the experience.
