You can fetch the timestamp using regex and then cast to a number so it can be used to create a new instance of Date:

var data = "/Date(1424853425207)/";
var timestamp = +data.replace(/\/Date\((.*?)\)\//g, '$1');
var date = new Date(timestamp);
console.log(date); // Wed Feb 25 2015 09:37:05 GMT+0100
