    Go for the Beef Stroganoff, starring braised short ribs that fall off the bone at the lightest touch. The dish is paired with freshly made egg noodles, mushrooms and English peas. Via CityEats.com Read more

    Nice restaurant/ bar attached to the Alexandrian hotel. Had some nice local beers to choose from and the bar menu was good.

    The J20 Burger is on point. With mountaineer cheese, bacon, apple cider slaw and barbecue aioli, this is one fancy-ass burger we love. Their shrimp fritter appetizer is also ridiculously good. Read more

    "Bessy plays the role of greeter. She is a large bronze pig and just one of many swines... If you tag a photo with you and Bessy on Jackson 20's Facebook page, you win an order of BBQ pork sliders."

    Highly recommended! Modern twist on american classics! Go for the rib eye or beef stroganoff! The gratin potatoes are the best.

    Maple syrup is great, but large stack is underwhelming. Gravy was also tasty, but biscuits were cold in the middle and were a little like cardboard.

    The cheese grits are to-die-for and don't think about leaving without getting the banana pudding for dessert. The potatoes au gratin are really good too! Great comfort food!

    Ok southern food brunch. Everything was a bit too greasy or sweet for my non-southern palate.

    Potato au gratin is awesome. Whiskey sour house cocktail was too sour. Trefethen red wine was best offered by the glass.

    Food was very disappointing to say the least. Bland appetizers, rock hard ribs, under seasoned sides. Service was slow as well. And if i ask for recommendations on a beer, don't recite the menu to me
