J. Alexander’s San Antonio (La Cantera)

Excellent night out with my wife and daughter! Food was great, but steaks could have been warmer when they came out, but overall very flavorful and lovely. Sides were excellent. Mac and cheese, fries, and the beans were very delicious. And the chocolate cake for dessert was perfect! Service was very attentive and enjoyed our dinner experience quite a bit. Will be back.

One word…outstanding FOOD & SERVICE by Evan, it was PERFECTION! We knew this was going to be great when Evan was our server. He went above & beyond to listen and grab anchovies from the kitchen for our caesar salad, how thoughtful! We’ve been coming here for many years and every single time, J Alexander’s deliveres! 03/07 Another fantastic meal today! Christian and Luciano took care of our table…FOOD & SERVICE EXCEPTIONAL every time.

A perfect place to have a great salad and not mention appetizers. My best friend took me to dinner around 6pm & we ordered the tuna stack to start off with and it was 10/10, so yummy! We ate at the bar for a more fun experience. For dinner I ordered the Thai Kai salad and it was a lot. It was delicious. The ladies at the bar were very helpful and friendly.

My first time and I was very impressed. Tuna stack, Millionaire Steak Sandwich, and Fried Fish Sandwich were all excellent. Upscale atmosphere with very attentive service.

Upon walking in, we were greeted immediately with no wait. I ordered the salmon dip and was very good. My only suggestion would be a little less onion. For the main course, I ordered the prime rib. It did not disappoint. The food is cooked professionally. I would definitely recommend the smoked artichoke. I'm giving service 4 stars because it took too long on a few occasions to get our waters refilled. It is important to me never to let my glass go empty.

Review: J Alexander's La Cantera 17422 Fiesta Texas Dr, San Antonio, TX 78256 (This is outside the gates) If you're looking for exceptional service, look no further than Jose. As he puts it, he practically lives there and truly loves his job. Be sure to ask for him! Remarkably, we don't recall ever dining at this establishment before. My wife attended a work function where they served J Alexander's Carrot Cake. She couldn't stop raving about it, and naturally, I had to investigate. Now, onto the ratings: **Midnight Margarita (9):** Sweet and enjoyable; my wife preferred it over the spicy version. **Spicy Margarita (8):** A typical margarita with a hint of spice. It could have benefited from a couple of jalapeño slices and some chili tajin. **Coke Zero (9):** Just as expected, with the bonus of guilt-free refills. **Caesar Salad (8):** Crunchy lettuce, croutons, and Reggiano Parmesan. The dressing was excellent, though I’d prefer a bit more anchovy flavor. **Hong Kong Shrimp (9):** Lightly breaded shrimp with a refreshing glaze—not overpowering at all. Quite filling and thoroughly enjoyable. **White Bean Soup (9.5):** A delightful surprise! This Chef's Special was outstanding. After tasting a sample from Jose, we had to order a bowl, which came with a slice of cornbread. It was hearty, thick, and savory—a must-try when it's on the menu. **Slow Roasted Prime Rib (9):** Now let me preface that before this, I've never had a restaurant allow me to order a larger sized prime rib beyond what they had printed on the menu. In this case, 12oz. Nope! We wanted 24oz, and it was worth it. Tbh, anytime I'm in the mood for prime rib, J Alexander's is the spot I will go to. It was thick with light flat. The crust was salty and complimented each piece when drenched in au jus and creamy horseradish. It was so good, we went back and the second time days later. Love it! **Smashed Potatoes (8.5):** These potatoes had a hearty, organic feel. The serving was thick and satisfying, making it a filling side dish. Now the grand finally! --- **CARROT CAKE (9.5)** This in-house made carrot cake features pineapple, pecans, coconut, and freshly grated carrots, all topped with rich cream cheese icing. I absolutely loved it—especially when heated for 15 to 30 seconds in the microwave. It rivals the Whiskey Cake, perhaps even surpassing it with its captivating flavors and moist texture. On our second visit, we ordered three slices! I even took a piece to a potential client, and they adored it. In summary, we thoroughly enjoyed our experience on both visits and look forward to returning in the future. See quick video review.

The place has changed names, and I think ownership since our last visit, we went by for lunch with a group from our church. I had the roasted chicken salad with ceasar, and my wife got the cheese burger and fries. It was all excellent, along with good service from the two gentlemen serving our tables. It is a bit on the pricey side, though, so be warned.
