An American cuisine grill with a 20th century art deco lounge vibe. The atmosphere was pleasant, which, along with the prices, gave me high expectations for the food. Unfortunately, it was underwhelming.
I was disappointed with the steak burger. I like to get burgers at American cuisine restaurants because, to me, it says a lot about the quality of the other food if you succeed (or flop) on your burgers - a staple American cuisine. This one was a flop. I asked for a medium (I like to test this before getting a medium rare on another visit) and I got well (no pink). The beef lacked flavor, and the dressing was underwhelming and needed to be rescued with ketchup from my fries. I expect more when I pay almost $20 for a burger at a restaurant touting its American cuisine.
The server was excellent - friendly and responsive. The atmosphere was pleasant. The straw fries were a good side. The chocolate cake with a scoop of ice cream was a delicious, shareable treat at the end of our meal.
First time ever eating there yesterday. We received awesome service from our waitress. Spinach dip was awesome. Chicken tenders were very tender, loved the skinny little fries. My husband said his new york strip was cooked perfectly. My son had the prime rib and ate every bite. Our only complaint was it was chilly inside. Other than that it was delicious!
Nice atmosphere, but a little loud. We ordered the deviled eggs and they were good, but a little on the bland side. I got the prime rib medium rare and it was cooked to perfection. Juicy and flavorful. Au jus could have been warmer and saltier, but went well with the requested creamy horseradish sauce. My wife got the filet mignon. She ordered it medium but it came rare, almost blue. She hates complaining and didn't want to return it, so she ate around the edges. It had good flavor and crust, but for as expensive as the steak was, you got to know how to cook a thick steak to the requested temp. Maybe finish it in the oven if it's a skill issue... Overall, service was great and sides were delicious.
Absolutely the best fine dine casual restaurant I've been to in a while. Service amazing. My New York strip grill to it's rare perfection. Make sure you try their Mac and cheese. Now GO! What are you waiting for.

Got an invite to meet some friends for dinner. The menu has good choices. The inside looks very chic and the atmosphere is elegant and relaxed. This restaurant was on my list to try and I’m so glad we went. Service is excellent and prompt. You don’t have to wait for any requests. The food is AMAZING!!!
The prime rib here is PHENOMENAL. The best I’ve ever had easily. Cooked perfectly (medium rare), the Hawaiian salad dressing is creamy and delicious, and the Austin Hope cab wine was fabulous too. Finished the evening with the carrot cake which was also a must-have! Can’t wait to return, and if you get Alexis as your server you know you’ll be in good hands!!
My goodness, the food, the service is bar none! Everything I've eaten here has been FANTASTIC! The service is non parallel! It's a J.Alexander Restaurant! They do have a lot of choices that aren't too expensive, but if you do buy a Filet, yes, it'll be a bit. The broccoli is amazing, garlic butter! Please go! Wonderful!
Awesome service and food. It was my birthday. We were sat quickly and given references to places to go after since we weren’t from Kentucky. Had a great time!
Wish I hadn't waited so long to go here but do definitely worth it!! Each one of us enjoyed our different steak choices cooked to perfection! Food looked so mouth watering, we couldn't wait to dive in. Best steak!!
Ah! But then came the warm gooey delicious carrot cake that takes comfort food to a whole new level!!
Service - you'd only expect the best and we received it.
Will happily do J. Alexander's Redland Grill again!!
I love this place! I have never tried a bad platter or had a bad experience here. These are some of my favorite shots taken. I enjoy their Sunday brunch as well. Who doesn’t love brunch and mimosas?
