J Alexander's, Chattanooga

I ate recently at the Chattanooga location. If you want good food at a ridiculous price, this restaurant is for you. Also if you like hearing pots and pans clanging and silver ware being handled loudly and feel like you’re eating next to the kitchen, I would recommend this place. The Bald Headed Bistro in Cleveland is a MUCH nicer place with MUCH better prices. I only went to J Alexander’s to see for myself how over priced it was. I was not disappointed. It s been a long time since I have paid so much for so little. I wouldn’t’ t go back if someone offered to buy my meal. I wouldn’t want them to waste their money. Summary - the food is pretty good and the service is good, but the prices and atmosphere are not for me.

July 2009: Steaks are usually good, but someone needs to pry the black pepper shaker from the chef's hand. Everything, and I mean everything is covered in black pepper. Steamed zuchini - covered in pepper. Mashed potatoes - covered in pepper. Glass of water - ok that was pepper free. It'd be nice to have a flavor other than black pepper on the sides. November 2011: J Alexander's has really stepped up its game. No more over-peppering for a start. Daily sides are really good, new appitizers are a hit, and the specials have been winners the last few times I've been. The prime rib is very good. Best of all, they have some new GREAT signature cocktails. The best of what I've had is the English Martini. Seriously, I moved my review from a 3 to a 5 based on the past few visits (Oct & Nov 2011).

A wonderful restaurant with wonderful service and great food. I love the side carts!

the hottest bartender in the world i recommend this place

A little dark for the dining experience. Elevator music plays entire time--somewhat loud. VERY good meal. I would recommend.

J Alexander's is our favorite restaurant. We go at least once a week. The food is fabulous and well worth the money. There is always enough to take home for another meal. Steaks are great. Salsa is the best I have eaten. Desserts are huge and always delicious. We always get great service too. The best place we have found to eat.

I love that the food is the best in the city, and the great managers they have. It is very clean and the staff is always friendly.
