This place was ABSOLUTELY amazing. The food was outstanding. The service was impeccable, AND the ambiance was very relaxing. Although I would consider this place very “high end” at no point in time were we made to feel uncomfortable. I got the prime rib and my wife got Angus steak and fries. We followed it up with a DELICIOUS slice of their famous carrot cake. It was hands down the best cake I’ve ever had. I would 10 out of 10 recommend this place. It’s pricy, but FULLY worth it.

We made a 7:00 pm reservation & was led to our table upon arrival. Nick was our waiter & hewas quite pleasant & got our food out to us pretty quickly. I had the pork chop, broccoli & stuffed baked potato (instead of mashed potatoes on the menu). My husband had the salmon & stuffed baked potato (instead of rice). There was no problem switching out the sides. My husband said his salmon & baked potato were delicious. My pork chop was much bigger than I expected & was not able to finish it. The broccoli was cooked quite well. It had a nice flavor. We shared a key lime pie & had coffee &:tea. The pie was pretty good, maybe a bit sweet. My husband said the coffee was really good. That’s one of his things telling if the restaurant is good. The problem with the atmosphere was that it was quite noisy. There was music playing overhead, but it was droned out by the customers speaking loudly to each other.

We made reservations for 6pm on February 4, 2026, for the 4 of us. We arrived on time and were seating by the very nice hostess. The restaurant was clean and the all-around atmosphere was very appealing. Within a few minutes our waitress Dee arrived, and the night couldn’t have been any better. She was pleasant, very pretty, offered suggestions, and didn’t seem to have any issues with slight modification of our meal. I ordered the salmon and it was absolutely delicious. We were all pleased with our meal. What a great night out with family from out of town and Dee made the night so much better. Dee thank you so much for all you do.

You literally cannot go wrong here. Everything I have tried at this establishment is amazing. If you have never tried the artichoke appetizer, it’s a must!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Outstanding Service from Ja’Kobi!

Ja’Kobi was our waiter at J. Alexander’s, and I can honestly say he was superb from start to finish. I’m visiting Birmingham from Philly, and this was hands-down the best service I’ve experienced since being here.

From the moment we sat down, Ja’Kobi was attentive, professional, and genuinely kind. He was knowledgeable about the menu, made excellent recommendations, and checked on us at just the right times without ever being intrusive. His energy was welcoming, his attitude was positive, and he made us feel truly cared for as guests not just another table.

What really stood out was his attention to detail and consistency. Drinks were refilled promptly, our food arrived exactly as ordered, and everything flowed smoothly. You could tell he takes pride in his work and understands what great hospitality really looks like.

Ja’Kobi is the kind of server who elevates the entire dining experience. He made our visit memorable, and if I lived in Birmingham, I’d request him every single time. J. Alexander’s is lucky to have him, he’s a true asset to the team.

If you’re dining here, do yourself a favor and ask for Ja’Kobi. Exceptional service all around!

My all-time favorite restaurant in Birmingham i have been dining since 2000. Wow, 25 – almost 26 years if that tells you anything? So I am so happy it’s back to j. Alexander’s name, the original. Don’t change it ever again, please. Friday, September 26th, 2025, dining earlier than normal firstly hostess wasn’t right on point we wanted to sit at the bar top tables all were vacant and she proceeded to explain the server for those specific tables on break still understandable double shifts can be long and tiring but being in the restaurant and hotel industry all my life i know that guests are always right and you should do anything (within means) to accommodate the guests from the time they enter the premises until exiting so us hearing excuses for why the table wasn’t available is not acceptable but to the SAVE the bartender behind the bar was right on time (wish I got his name) but as I said before September 26th 4pm starting shift gentleman of color waved the hostess down to get her attention and said yes table is good to go that’s the difference between server/bartender staff and hostess one lives pretty much from tips and other lives from tip share and minimum wage or more paycheck but still respect all positions in the industry I promise. So sat where we wanted and greeted immediately and properly from our server Nick. What a great guy personality and not bad on the eyes he has a great sense of humor (even if he’s an Auburn fan lol just kidding ) Very informative and knowledgeable about the menu and items he’s good at what he does i recommend yall ask for him you won’t regret it for the bartender great drinks and I loved my SPHERE ICE CIRCLE (Gentleman Cube normally) But a SPHERE!!! (See attached pics) Friday soup New England Clam Chowder, the best around tip, go early on Fridays you won’t believe all the clams in the bowl WOW. For entrée no doubt about it 16 Oz prime rib our absolute favorite no where else can compete try the roasted Brussel sprouts for vegetable again no one else can top it OK last but not least I would have taken a picture but we took it home for later and there’s nothing to show ALL GONE DRUM ROLL PLEASE…….CARROT CAKE only one other can beat it and it’s their seasonal Pumpkin cake OUT OF THIS WORLD I was hoping it was in but just not yet so please try both you won’t regret it yall will thank me promise you but overall I love j Alexander’s maybe just as much as my dear friends up in heaven Bart and Cherry Starr God bless you both. And I will be back soon enough. Thanks for not letting me down for my favorite restaurant in Birmingham, Alabama, since my first visit until my last.

Came for our anniversary and had a great time! Had 6:45 reservations and were seated immediately. The server was very polite and allowed me to swap fries for potatoes as a side. Very romantic atmosphere with the real candles on the table. My steak was cooked a perfect medium, pink/red all the way through with no gray on the outside. My husband’s port was also amazing and had a wonderful sauce. The whole meal was absolutely delicious and we topped it off with a fresh warm carrot cake! I normally always go for the chocolate option but it was too good to pass up and I don’t regret it! The slice was huge and we could barely finish it between the two of us. We had a great time and will definitely be back!

Oh my goodness! Just had one of the best dining experiences at J. Alexander’s. Our server was Moody, who took very good care of us. (Seriously! Give the man a raise ) Our cocktails-cosmo and Old Fashioned-were fantastic. Had the Queso for starters which was a very generous portion followed by the clam chowder then the salmon, (cooked medium) accompanied by the wild rice and orzo which was absolutely superb. Compliments to the chef please! Everything was magnificent!
