The Veggie Burger at J.Alexanders is delicious. It is Big, falls apart when you eat it. Heavy on the rice/grain factor but the consistency and flavor is perfect. Begs you to cut it in half and do your best to wrestle it into your mouth. I ask for no jack cheese, so I can feel all right about eating their thin fries piled high on the plate. The fries are perfectly balanced between crispy and soft, with a nice salty flavor. At $9 this dish is a bargain. Beef eaters seem to really enjoy the normal burgers, also cooked on a wood burning grill. My lunch mate, the chubby cook, had a good looking salad with grilled chicken, he polished it off without touching my fries (huh?).
I was hesitant about ordering this today as I haven’t gluten/bread in 3 weeks. I kind of wanted to save myself for a Fougasse at On The Rise on Saturday. But the call of the wild was just too strong for me. Next time you are at J.Alexanders, try the veggie burger, just make sure you ask for it to be well done.
