This place was spacious, stylish, and had a really great atmosphere. We were seated right away and warmly greeted by a kind and attentive waitress, which made the experience start off on a great note. I ordered the ribeye, and it was delicious. It was a bit thinner than I personally prefer, but it was cooked perfectly to medium rare and had great flavor. My sister ordered the prime rib, which was absolutely the highlight of the table--tender, flavorful, and cooked perfectly. Her boyfriend had the blackened chicken, and that was another fantastic dish. Overall, I was really impressed with this place. The food, service, and ambiance were all great. My sister loves it so much she comes here once or twice a week, and after this visit, I can definitely see why! read more

Very good food, with a nice date night atmosphere. we always enjoy dining here whether it be dinner for two or a family night.

Food was delicious, menu had a lot of options. We'll be back based on taste of food. Service was alright, semi-friendly. Food was quick to get out! Some of the atmosphere was good but we were put in a room that was a little dark, small, and made me feel a little claustrophobic. When we're in town and stop here again I do not want this same room. read more

06/12/2025 update. Independent of the various fees Jonathan's Grill charges (since I didn't see the receipt and hubs did takeout and picked it up), the Caesar Salad and Fish 'n Chips he got for me yesterday were great! The portion sizes were back up to their initial sizes when they first opened, and big bonus, they actually did put my Caesar salad dressing on the side, which was huge! If they hadn't, the salad would have been a mushy mess by the time hubs got home. The Caesar had large flakes of fresh parmesan cheese and it was nice to be able to just lightly dip each fork full of salad in the dressing. The dressing was fresh and house made tasting. This meal was a nice Mother's Day win and I have plenty of leftovers to reheat in the air fryer today! Between hub's quesadilla and grilled chicken salad, he has two meals also! Thanks Jonathan's. read more

Jonathan's Grille - Salmon Alfredo with house side salad - Sports Bars Near Me - Madison, Alabama

We visit this establishment several times a month and we never leave disappointed. The food and service both are excellent with plenty of portions. I highly recommend trying the bar area one time to eat and watch a sports venue as we have done this many times. Really enjoy this place and highly recommend. read more

Food is good, it's a really good place for large groups. Service is also impressive and they have a wide variety of food options

Great atmosphere, great food. Steak was perfectly cooked but a little too seasoned for my liking. The chicken and red peppers over rice had a little heat but was great. Fast service for a late night visit. Recommended :) read more

I've reviewed this place before, but honestly with each visit it gets worse each time. I've let it go and not posted giving them the benefit of the doubt. The food is getting pretty bad. I tried their new horseshoe sandwich this last trip. Hey, chili and cheese on a burger. Has to be good right? Not so, the chili was overpoweringly sweet. I'm not from the north. To me sweet chili should make you eligible for the twenty years. At the least you should be banned from any kitchen anywhere. The service is still pretty good, as is the ambiance, but the food continues to slide. Hopefully they can return to their old form, but it will take real work. read more

Great food and even on a busy night for a party of seven the wait was not bad. We will be back. The service was great.

Our first time at Jonathan's, and it was truly wonderful. Hubby had Waldorf salad, fresh and delicious My chicken teriyaki bowl was awesome The fried cauliflower appetizer was delectable! Highly recommend! Our waitress treated us like family, and the atmosphere was upbeat. Very clean and well organized. read more

Jonathan's Grille - New Chicken Teriyaki Bowl - Sports Bars Near Me - Madison, Alabama

The French dip was acceptable. Not great. The roast beef had almost no flavor and was slightly dry. Service was a bit slow. It used to be crowded on a Saturday evening. Now there are plenty of seats open. Might be a while before I go back. read more

Food was great , great selection of NA beers. We got there a little late in the evening. Our waitress seemed not super enthused to be there, but other than that pretty darn good. read more

used to go there about once a week until tonight. Won't go back. Service was good, but had a discrepancy over a $1 item. Manager came out and was very snippy - Basically said TS. Guess their $1 was more important than the ~$80 we spent there every week. Very loud also. Like I said, we won't go back! read more

We came for a family meal with the grandkids today. The service was great. I had the Mediterranean hummus bowl with grilled chicken. The jasmine rice was cooked just right. The hummus tasted very fresh. The kids enjoyed burgers and fries. The server brought their meals out first since they were so hungry. The men enjoyed watching football during lunch. read more

I recently visited Johnathan's during a quick visit home. We arrived around 5:30pm on a Saturday night, and the place was packed. We only waited a few minutes, just so they could clear a table for us. We ordered 2 appetizers, the fried pickles and the bang bang shrimp egg rolls. The pickles were delicious, just a bit too salty for my preference. The egg rolls looked good, but didn't have much flavor. For my main meal, I ordered the Southwest chicken sandwich. It also looked great, but wasn't flavorful. My boyfriend ordered the alfredo pasta with salmon and my mom ordered a salad, which they both enjoyed. My mom and I decided to order desert, which I got the chocolate chip cookie ice cream sandwich and she ordered the chocolate cake. Both were large portions and it was really good. Our waitress was extremely attentive and quick to refill our cups of water and check if our table was ok. Overall, I think this is a good affordable spot to grab some food. The menu is extensive, so I'd definitely go back and try something else. read more

If ZERO stars was an option... We had a large party ~25. Service was extremely slow with 2 attendants. Appetizers took over 30 minutes, meals took more than an hour. We were there for 2 hours and 4 people in our party NEVER GOT SERVED A MEAL AT ALL!!! Its posted menu prices are cash and 3% fee on DEBIT cards which is likely a violation of the Visa service agreement. read more

Service was good. Can't blame the server for the food. It was awful. Barely warm, processed crap. Ambiance was pitiful: apparently it wasntrivia night so my husband and I had to yell over some woman shouting questions over a loud speaker. Will not be back read more

First of all, Keevian is a fantastic, friendly, helpful server. The food is great, the prices are pretty reasonable. This is our first visit but we plan to be back. read more

The food was good and the waitress was nice, but I asked for no fries with my steak and the chef refused to accommodate due to presentation.

Whoa, whoa , whoa, if you are in town you need to try this place. We stopped here because they have a gluten free pizza, exactly what I was looking for. I ordered the cauliflower crust pepperoni, sausage and mushroom. Let me tell ya, it's THE BEST pizza I have had in YEARS due to the whole GF thing. The crust was buttery smooooth and crispy- not the GF crrrunch. It is beyond ANY other GF crust I have had. Let me add the fact that the cheese was melty deliciousness, they are not jacking around. My husband said his burger was pretty tasty. We will definitely return when we are back this way! Woo! That's a win. read more

The restaurant is bigger than it looks from the street. It has a large seating area and a large bar. TVs are located throughout the restaurant making it a great place to watch football. The menu is diverse and reasonably priced. The service is attentive and quick, especially during the current labor shortage. I've been here 3 or 4 times and this is the second time that I had the cajun sausage pasta. It is very good, has a little kick, and is a large portion that I couldn't finish. We got the chocolate cake for dessert and four of us couldn't finish it. The only negative is the 3% Developer's fee that is added to all tickets. read more

Food is eh ...not great! mozzarella sticks they seem not to get it right ,the cheese is nowhere to be melted it feels like the cheese inside is hard ,a veggie burger was all mushy and the cheese dip that comes with pretzels didn't even feel like a dipping sauce it looked like the top was all hard Just overall not good food but it's the only place open late in Madison . And to top it all off all this extra fees is insane !!!!!!!!! read more

This place was okay for a business lunch, though if I'd chosen the place I'd have gone somewhere quieter. Pros: There's ample parking and seating (we got a table during the lunch rush, no issue) Service was fine, albeit not stellar (see below) The food was alright--my bang bang shrimp tacos were certainly serviceable The menu is huge, so you'll be able to find something edible Portions are large Cons: They brought out one person's order incorrectly (like, entirely the wrong salad) and didn't include dressing--it was brought out 10 minutes later Everything seemed VERY rushed--our meal was served less than 10 minutes after ordering, then they were rushing us out (despite no one waiting for a table) Everything was sticky, from the table to the salt and pepper shakers Nothing we were served was better than what I could get at Chilis For what we needed, it was fine. For what you're wanting...might want to look elsewhere unless expectations are kept reasonable. read more

We arrived at peak time--6:15pm. I had no trouble getting a parking spot, although the lot was crowded. There is a parking trap in the front of the establishment, but I found two spots there. The wait was stated to be an hour. The weather was pleasant, and there was a good variety of places to wait and enjoy some downtime. One strange thing--they were out of pagers, and told us the pagers didn't work unless you were a few feet from the building. What modern restaurant cheaps out like that on the proximity pager system/install? Not a complaint...just really odd, especially for a chain. They were calling names and I have no issue with old school. It does mean that you can't wait in your car, though (in the case of a longer wait). We were promptly seated in 45 minutes with drinks on the table. The atmosphere was louder than I thought it would be, but it is a sports bar. At first it reminded me a little of THIF, without the weird vibe. I ordered The Godfather sandwich with Chili. The Chili was savory but not spicy. It was pleasantly different...a bit sweet. The Sandwich was flavorful and absolutely my new favorite. It was one of those things that is so good that you don't want to risk trying something else next time, if you know what I mean? It was the perfect match for my tastebuds. Service was attentive, my glass never ran dry, and food was quick/fresh. I wasn't lied to about the wait. The cost for two was $32 without a tip. It was an all around good experience. I find nothing to subtract a star for in my trip to Jonathan's Grill. I'll definitely be back! read more

Went to Johnathan's today for the first time to have lunch, it was pretty good. I ordered the Melody's French dip sandwich (made w/shaved prime rib) w/cup of french onion soup as the side. Both were excellent! My wife had the avocado club sandwich (made w/grilled chicken) w/steamed broccoli as the side. She liked the sandwich (don't think she liked bread so much). She said that next time she might prefer to have something like a grilled chicken salad. The service was very good. Our waiter stopped by the table several times to see if needed anything. I'll definitely be dining at this restaurant again in the future. read more

This use to be a great place to dine, but lately it is become a downgrade for great service. I brought my daughter in tonight for a birthday dinner, and it was anything but good. The waitress Marlene should not be working in customer service. She has zero compassion, and is not into serving diversity of any kind. If your in customer service as a waitress, you should always check in on your tables, the entire time we were dining, she did not come to our table to offer refills, check if we needed anything. We had to stop other waiters to ask for assistance. She over charged us and the food was it was a very disappointing,. The shrimp was cold and wings cooked very hard. We did speak with a manager, who showed little remorse for any of our concerns. He was more interested in showing his tattoo of his sword on his arm. As a pillar in the community, I am very disappointed . read more

Food is mediocre at best and prices are high. Scrutinized the itemized receipt and the CC receipt and discovered a hidden 3% CC fee not shown on itemized receipt. Blatant deception in my opinion. Between the 10% taxes, 3% development fee at Clift Farms, and the hidden CC use tax, 16% total taxes is getting to be on par with the EU Commie taxes. Stay out of Madison and Clift Farms. read more

Great atmosphere, food options, and service. I always get the $4 house IPA!!! Haven't been disappointed!

Went in yesterday for a late lunch with my best friend. He had the perfect prime sandwich with fries and I had the fiesta wrap with onion rings. Started out with a couple of house salads w/blue cheese and the fried cauliflower... The cauliflower just because we were curious about it and looked interesting and it was a good choice! The standout of our experience was our server, Maryann, who was absolutely AMAZING! Her proactive approach, checking in after the appetizers/salads to ensure a perfectly timed food order, was a true blessing. Maryann's exceptional service earned her a well-deserved five stars . We sincerely hope to have her take care of us every time we visit. Kudos to Jonathan's for having such an attentive and caring person on their staff It's a wee bit too loud in some of the spaces farthest from the bar and you have to use your outside voice to talk to people at the table. This place offers a diverse selection of meals catering to various palates which is a plus... Definitely going to come back again to keep trying more things on the menu. read more

The food is excellent, there are several great dishes to choose from, but it is so cold in there we can hardly wait to leave.

Nice place with good service. Came by for lunch and ordered the Larry Bird. Crispy Chicken Breast with bacon and cheese. Good sandwich, it it wasn't crispy and a bit greasy/oily like it had been fried earlier and redipped in the fryer to heat it up for service. My colleague had a club sandwich and loved it. Good crispy fries. read more

I always love going to Jonathan's Grille for their "New" Smash burger. Unfortunately, on my last visit, our waiter was Pakistani (which is no big deal), but he was rude when I ordered the Smash burger "loaded." He made me tell him exactly what I wanted on it, and I forgot the bacon jam, which "makes" the burger so special. I got an unseasoned double cheeseburger...so disappointing. The saving grace is I ordered the Bam Bam Shrimp tacos to go for dinner that evening and they were delicious!!! I guess since I didn't have to tell him how to build those, they turned out perfect. My new "favorite" order item will be the tacos. read more

Tried this place for the first time on a Sunday @ 1:30 pm as a party of 2 and got seated immediately- thought that was awesome. Lots of seating options and the building holds so many people! Parking is somewhat limited for the amount of guests they can hold, so just be mindful of that if it's a busier time. Food was good, waitstaff was attentive & there were a millions TVs for all the Sunday football! Only critique: Fries were over-fried a little bit and needed seasoning. Menu was big & had lots of things that I wanted to try, so definitely will be back. Pictured: Spinach & Artichoke Dip (Appetizer) Fish & Chips (Main) Godfather Sandwich (Main) read more

Been wanting to try Jonathan's since they first opened; they have a large menu with lots of good-sounding stuff available. It's a haul from my house but I found myself with time the other day so I placed an order for carryout to give them a go. Ordering was easy and done over the phone. I was told my food would take 15 minutes, and it was bagged and waiting for me when I arrived 17 minutes later, so no complaints there. The parking lot is a little intimidating but there's lots of spaces so if you're gun shy like me find a less packed area and get some extra steps in. :) The interior is bigger than you'd expect, lots of nice TVs, comfy seating, and a very large bar. My pickup order was waiting on a counter near the bar area, down a hallway on your right as you walk in. Their outdoor patio looks nice. The bartender handled my payment and gave me my food. The table I signed my receipt on was still damp, I'm guessing from being wiped down, but that was a little unpleasant. Oh well. I got the southwest egg rolls and a Diet Coke. The egg rolls were plenty enough for a meal for me (about 3 egg rolls total, cut into 6 pieces) and cost $10. The Diet Coke was $3, which made my head spin for the size of the cup. Should've gone to a gas station or Walmart for my beverage, lol. Otherwise, I was happy with the portion/price ratio. The egg rolls were reaaaaally good and I basically have no complaints or notes! Perfectly crispy on the outside, gooey and cheesy on the inside, plenty of chicken and other fillings, and just a few little chopped jalapeños for a kick. The dipping sauce was maybe a little thin but tasted great! It traveled well on my way back and the egg rolls didn't suffer at all. I would definitely return and order my same meal again. If given the chance, I also look forward to trying other choices from the menu. Thanks for a positive first experience! read more

Meh. Bad bar food. Overcooked dry chicken wings. Buffalo sauce for chicken tenders was sweet??!? and sticky. Fries mushy, flatbread over cooked hard crust. Food looks like it was just thrown on the plate. Absolutely NO LOVE put into any of it. NONE. The size of the menu was the first red flag. Way too many options to be able to say they are fresh. Two full pages of every kind of style food imaginable. The menu is all over the place. Given this is a chain, I'd say everything comes frozen and pre breaded, nothing is made fresh. Quality of food compares to what you find in an airport. AND NOT INEXPENSIVE either. Def not worth the $$$$$ read more

We've given this restaurant multiple tries and they've failed every time. Our last visit was to the bar to catch a football game. It's a great environment with lots of seating and TV's. The food however, is terrible. They can't seem to make one thing right. Ordered the Bam Bam Shrimp and they came out cold. Not warm, COLD. How are you going to serve fried shrimp cold? I really like the patio and would have loved to enjoy another game here but would never want to eat here again. read more
