This was my first time back to J. Alexander's in over 20 years after returning to Toledo and I loved every moment! The waitress was extremely nice, helpful, and accommodating. The drinks were delicious. The calamari was very good. The steak brazzo was flavor-overload and I loved it! My daughter loved her seafood Alfredo, and also the key lime pie was really good. I had absolutely no complaints-perfecto!

While I've been here a number of times, this is the first that I've written a review. We had lunch with my wife having their Grilled Chicken Salad and me having their French Dip sandwich. Their salads are always superb and this one did not disappoint. The French Dip including the au jus was tasty, tender and not overly salty. Rather than fries, I had roasted asparagus which was smoky, flavored well and as a minor complaint, overly salted. The service, as always, was exceptional. I've had a number of items on their menu and can't think of one that I didn't thoroughly enjoy.

good food, good atmosphere good service The filet mignon was awesome. It is pricey, but once in a while, splurge as well worth it.

I keep falling in love with this place. Over and over again. I go years in between visits and it manages to maintain the quality of service and food. The atmosphere is very chill with low lighting and comfortable seats. The timing of food delivery and drink delivery is perfect.

I recently went to JA's to celebrate a birthday and an engagement. We were a party of four and had made a reservation a week beforehand for a Saturday evening. Our table was ready on time. While JA's is a chain restaurant, it's an upscale chain with a sophisticated ambiance that can generally be expected to deliver good quality food and service. I've been here many times over the years and have had some varying experiences. Fortunately, I can report that everything was five stars for my most recent visit. Our server, MJ, exceeded all expectations for service. He was extremely personable as he interacted with us and took an interest in the occasions we were celebrating. He also had a great sense of humor. When he was busy, other servers were attentive to us in a team like and friendly manner. Service was outstanding. Everyone enjoyed their meals. I ordered the Rattlesnake Pasta with chicken and shrimp. It was absolutely delicious! (See picture posted below.) Another person in our party ordered the same entree and also loved it. Since I had inquired about spiciness of the southwestern seasonings in the dish, MJ offered to bring seasoning on the side so I could add as much or as little as I wanted. The two others in our group ordered a steak entree and an ahi tuna dish. No complaints from either of them. (Pictures also posted.) After dinner, MJ served four plates so we could all taste the birthday girl's scrumptious carrot cake that is complimentary for all birthdays. It's beyond decadent and worth every calorie. We lingered talking after dinner and dessert and never felt pressured to leave after approximately three hours. Our experience was definitely amazing in every way due to the excellent service and food, in addition to enjoying the festivity of our celebration. Highly recommend this restaurant!

We ordered the soup and salad as I always do. They are both really good and just the right amount of food. The staff were great even though we walked in the door 30 minutes before closing time. Everything was great.

Ambience is casual to fine. Enjoyed the Maui Ribeye and red mash potatoes. Def should have came with a veg . Wasn't asked or offered to add. Felt unbalanced. But still a decent steak but not the best which is why I'm going with 4 stars. Was here for a birthday.

Lunch at the bar. Started with a side salad. Then an appetizer of deviled eggs to share. Burger no bun
