Reviews for J. Alexander's Restaurant in Dayton, OH

Cozy sophistication! My wife and I enjoyed a lovely date night here, enjoying a New York strip and a slice of the house... special, prime rib. The meat was cooked exactly to our specifications. I chose the "Not your regular mac and cheese ", and mylovely bride had a baked potato as our side dishes. Both were delicious and full of flavor. We don't normally order dessert, butthe Key Lime pie was absolutely amazing! You would have to travel to Key West to get anything close to being this good! Thewhipped cream is apparently made in-house, as well Our server, Cameron, took excellent care of us; he was professional, friendlyand attentive! We'll be happy to return soon for another stellar date night Read more

What a delightful dinner! Their veggie burger was fantastic and the French Dip sandwich was beyond excellent. Service was spot... on. Looking forward to a return visit for sure! Read more

We sat in the bar area and our service was immaculate. Most informed and prepared waiter I’ve had in months. The Thai... Margarita and the deviled eggs are both phenomenal! The fried chicken entree is a must have. The Ny Strip was so so but the Macn Cheese really made up for it. MUST TRY. #RedlandsGrill Pictured drinks also include Old Fashioned and Manhattan.

I absolutely love this place. It’s our go to when we have a date night. The steak Maui is my favorite. The deviled eggs and... carrot cake are an added bonus. I’ve been in the industry for 15 years and this place hits the spot every time. Highlyrecommend. Read more

By far some of the BEST service I've received and the meal was absolutely hot, fresh, and delicious. OMG those deviled eggs,... you've gotta try. Kelsi our server was both attentive and very polite, what an amazing experience! Read more

We finally found our go-to steakhouse. The atmosphere is great. Even when the dining room is full, the noise is still at a... minimum. The NY strip has a fabulous smoked flavor, the prime rib is so tender, and the serving sizes of the sides and steaksallows for 2 meals. I’ve heard this place is expensive, but I don’t believe that at all with the amount of food andquality. Read more

The food and the service here have always been here unmatched in the Miami Valley. The only thing different about this evening... was that our son decided to join us. I was looking forward to this meal so much that I almost forgot to take any pictures! Ourserver was off the charts awesome this evening as well. I can’t wait to go back! Happy Birthday Linda..

I took my girlfriend out to Redlands Grill by j Alexander's for a fancy date, and we were blown away. The atmosphere was just... right for a romantic evening out: dimly lit and quiet, with a relaxing background of soft jazz music. The decor wasbeautiful—the walls were painted all shades of red, from pale, blush pink to deep maroon. They had candles on every table andthe room smelled like fresh flowers. We started with the chips and queso, which was amazing! It was a lot of fun to share withmy date and it really set the tone for an evening full of good food and good conversation. For our entrees, we both orderedsteak—she got the steak. It was cooked perfectly: tender and juicy with a nice sear on the outside. I ordered their steakburger, which I found really interesting because it's not something I've seen on other menus before. We both agreed it wasdelicious but if you're looking for something that's more classically "steak-like," we recommend going for one of their actualsteak entrees! The staff was also on point with everything! Our waiter was very friendly and had some great conversations withus! - Mr. Burns Read more
