| - Really, really like J Alexander's. I was introduced to J's by a good friend that worked there quite a while back, and it became one of my go to dinner spots after that.
Like others, I'd probably compare J's to Houston's, but I love that J's features a more diverse menu. You've got way more options, and pretty much all of the options are good. They switch the menu up pretty often, which can be good and bad (RIP Steak and Fries - Best $19 steak I've ever had), but they also bring back some favorites as well (Helloooo, Jack's Crispy Chicken Platter). The classics are all good - They have really good salads, their burgers are great and the entrees I've had were also really good.
The ambiance is nice inside and the service has always been good, whether in the dining room or at the bar. I like the look of this place a lot, from the wine area to the bar to the really cool bathrooms. As a general rule, Scottsdale has really nice bathrooms...
I'm giving 4 stars because the prices have gone up in the last few months, they've stopped offering their pimento cheese dip at the bar (which was amazing), and they no longer offer the crescent rolls with dinner anymore. It's little stuff, you know? Regardless, I'll still come to J's often because it always seems to hit the spot.
