Opened in the fall of 2008, J. Alexander’s, located at 6186 North Scottsdale Road (adjacent to The Borgata of Scottsdale), served up dishes such as buttermilk onion rings, aged prime rib, and white chocolate cheesecake. Burgers and sandwiches were also part of the menu.

Last fall, the local homebuilder stated it plans to redevelop the site into luxury condominiums.
