J Alexander's is my favorite restaurant for formal events and also semi- formal events. The service is superb, and your food comes shortly after you order. I have been going there for a long time and I have never had a problem with the staff or food. I would recommend the carrot cake, it's the best I have ever eaten!... More

Good food but a little bit pricey. The grilled shrimp was good. Dessert was great. Nice atmosphere and good service.

Nice place for a typical burger, salad, or entree. Pretty good service and prices for the food quality. Menu and specials are a little confusing and sometimes wait staff seems confused about options. I give the restaurant an average but I go there a lot. One possible reason I go there a lot is there is not much competition in... More

Dined at this retauranct 2 times in April 2013. The food is outstanding. Recommend the ahi tuna salad, salmon appetizer. Appetizer was large enough for 5 people to have made 3 canapes each. Dark, yet elegant atmosphere. Diners dress in everything from suits to shorts. Tremondous service and informed servers. This is the place I take business and family to... More

Staff was very friendly and, while very busy, they were also attentive. The food was awesome! They serve a great lemon drop as well. Had a great time! My 22 year old son said, "Mom, I didn't know Mac and Cheese could get better." He's right - best we've ever had......... the New York Strip was great as well.

I have eaten at the J. Alexanders a few times in Chattanooga, but not in years. this was my first visit to the one in Cool Springs. I went with about 6-7 others. The restaurant is nice in appearance and decor and does a thriving business. It was nearly 1 pm when we got there. I ordered one of their... More
