Reviews for J. Alexander's Restaurant in Northbrook, IL
I had heard a lot of good things about this restaurant so decided to give it a try. In my opinion it was just OK. I had a... salad topped with grilled chicken. It was as average as you could get. The building decor reminded me of typical restaurants ofthe '80's. Honestly I don't think I'd go back. It wasn't bad, but there was nothing about it to draw me back. Read more
This is only my second time eating at this restaurant and both times have been a great experience both with the food and... customer service. Can't wait to eat here again! Read more
Food was good but a bit pricy for what you get. Atmosphere was dark and gloomy. Were they hiding something? Waiter did not know... basic service and selling skills. One example: (Leaving dirty plates on the table til we pay our bill?). How many times do youwalk through your station and avoid picking up a single item to make the dining experience a quality one. Isn’t it obvious, wego out to eat for more than just food? I just have to say this: Duh! Read more
The restaurant is nice. I ordered the chicken strips and they were tender and had a nice flavor. We also ordered the calamari.... As you can see in the picture, it was destroyed. I highly recommend it. Read more
The food was mediocre. The ceasar salad needed more ceasar. It was not worth the trip but the ambiance was great
Really enjoyed this place. Greeted with a kind smile and seated immediately. The food was fantastic and the portions are... sizable. Not just another chain. Interesting menu and everything was better than expected. Will definitely go again if back inthe area. Read more
As always they did a awesome job! They remembered me and gave me my favorite booth. My family was pleased with their food and... the spinach dip was on point! Next time I’m back in Nashville I’ll definitely pay them a visit again! Read more
Great experience, food and service. One mention is we sat at the bar and everyone around us were frequent patrons of the... restaurant. That's an excellent sign of consistency and a place I love to be. We shared the deviled eggs which were fantastic. They are made with a sweet relish but also red pepper chili flakes and a chunk of pepper bacon on top. This gives a mildly sweetand spicy taste that is very unique. I had a ribeye with mashed potatoes and my companion had the BBQ salmon. We both enjoyedour food. Ended the evening with a slice of key lime pie to round out the food coma. For drinks our bartender did a fabulous jobmaking us custom drinks. I wish I remembered his name because he was wonderful. Fun to talk to and loved making drinks. He gaveus a key lime martini that was lovely! Overall definitely recommended! Read more
