So we've been to the Houston's by the Borgata (aka J. Alexander's) a few times now, and it's pretty good.  Low booths make for an open feeling with dark wood and dim lighting from oversized fixtures, open kitchen.  Fery few tables for more than 4.  Snottsdale greeters that may or may not make you feel welcome.  The broadly priced menu has the usual steaks and fish, inventive salads, sandwiches and a nice wine list.  They do a great job at food execution and presentation.  Service at this Houston's isn't quite as experienced as the others, though.  Most questions are met with the deer in headlights stare while the server tries to remember the answer, but not to worry because they'll get a manager if they can't answer.  Generally, they shy away from chit chat like they're afraid they might make a mistake.  The desserts are great.  I really do like this restaurant, it's just hard not to laugh about the obvious Houston's knock-off.
