I like J. Alexander's. I'm surprised by the disappointing reviews of this place.
I've been here several times and enjoy it, just like I did tonight. I feel the wine selection is great, my martini was perfect and took the edge off of a long day at work, and the pork tenderloin was very tender and delicious.
I feel the service is always prompt and friendly. I like the decor and the patio. Good value for your $$ too.
If you're thinking about giving J. Alexander's a try, I encourage you to. I think you're going to like it. :)
