  • There are few things in life that mean more to me than an offer of a cold bottle of water before heading out into 120 degree heat after a delicious meal. And I got two as I exited J. Alexander's. Love. But to start at the beginning. Destination family wedding, post-festivities. Looking for a non-existent El Torito brought us to J. Alexander's, which had the benefits of 1) being open when we were all ravenous and hot and 2) having misters cooling the oppressively hot Scottsdale air near the front door, rather like a Siren's call to weary travelers. Parking, btw, is conveniently in front of the restaurant, overflow gets either underground parking lot or the parking lot of your friendly neighborhood Walgreen's (which is where once upon a recession-free time, there was an El Torito) We were offered indoor or outdoor seating (central air trumps misters) and given rather large menus. Everything we ordered from the fish/steak tacos to the prime rib and Alex's salad (deelish!) was fabulous. Service was excellent, thanks Lea for putting up with all our requests for water. But really, this review is about the carrot cake. It's hard to make carrot cake sound exciting and worth the trek out to Scottsdale to all my Los Angelenos, but really, this cake was a revelation and a revolution to how I think of carrot cake. Imagine a cake so warm and moist that hints at and then EXPLODES with flavor, with icing that enhances that party of taste rather than reminds you of the 10 lbs you'll save yourself if you scrape it off. DO NOT SCRAPE OFF THIS ICING, it's sacrilege. Stand outside for 10 minutes, those extra pounds will disappear, guaranteed. They make this cake (and all their desserts) fresh daily, none of that frozen nonsense, and you CAN taste the difference. I'd go back to Scottsdale for this cake. A+, 5 stars, TRY this restaraurant, but it's a MUST to have this carrot cake.
