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.

Wonderful menu selection and love their salads and bread. Especially love the Ahi Tuna items. Very long waits at times but great service.

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

The resturant is just off the I-65 as you enter Cool Springs. Good food as always but a little pricey so be prepared. Glad this one had the cornbread with the pepper kick since the last J.Alexander's in Chatt. had taken it off their menu.

Some of the best food I've had since moving to the area. The service is top-notch, and the portion sizes will have you leaving with a to-go bag. Do you and your family a favor, and dine here.

This is a place we go for special occasions and we have never been disappointed. We have had steaks, seafood, salads, deserts and they are always fresh and flavorful. The wait staff is attentive and professional. The atmosphere makes you feel as though you have privacy in a large room.

This was our second time to this location. The food is pricey so be forewarned. I got a prime rib and it was 25, but it was worth every dollar!! The food is amazing, and the service cant be beat!! Our waiter was checking on us constantly!! I have been to other J. Alexanders and they are all good, but... More
