“This is my grand daughter's favorite place for brunch. Grandma your going to love it! She was right, my first Filipino experience. I can't remember what I had, but I ate it all and sampled her and my Son's entree as well. The food, the atmosphere and the hospitality of Evana will be my go to for my next experience. That garlic choy and spicey vinegar needs to be bottled up and sold. ❤️ me some Purple Roots!!”
“JL’s has been a staple to my Navy family since the early seventies. We moved from Guantánamo Bay Cuba to Jacksonville.. Dad 95 years old and I had another great dinner! Liz, took care of us tonight, she went over and beyond the call of duty! I told her I wanted to get a new t-shirt when we finished dinner. We place our order and next thing I know she brings out several T-shirts for me to choose from! That’s, that extra little touch that goes a long way!”
“As always, their food, vibe, professionalism, and service were top notch. Our first night out in a while, and as usual, JCF exceeded in delivering an amazing atmosphere. The cooks, servers, and staff were, as always, quick, thorough, and the food was delish. Ibelieve I've had nearly everything on their menu now and it never is less than excellent! Quite likely our top 3-5 favorite nationwide! Easily could be number 1 with great competition. If you want amazing local food, this place is the spot. Thanks as always, y'all!”
“Cute little dinning experience. Had the short rib and boyfriend had the schnitzel. And we weren’t sure what to think about fried bananas but omg amazing… not mushy- I would 10/10 recommend!”
“Today marked a memorable occasion, and my husband and I chose to celebrate at our beloved, favorite Masala Mantra Indian Bistro. It's our anniversary! The food and service there never fail to impress. I often find myself declaring Indian cuisine as my top pick among all the international flavors out there! The warmth of Indian hospitality is truly delightful. Our waiter, Akhil, is exceptional—his attentive and meticulous service stands out every time. The restaurant consistently maintains a pristine, fresh, and elegantly appointed atmosphere. Akhil and the manager went above and beyond to make our anniversary unforgettable. They surprised us with a scrumptious slice of mango cheesecake, adorned with a candle, and handed me a lighter to ignite it and mark the occasion! How thoughtful is that? Akhil even offered to capture some photos of us. A heartfelt thank you to the team for making us feel so valued! My husband and I highly recommend this restaurant. I wanted to share a few snapshots here. Miriam & John”

“We were looking for a place to have Brunch and a lady outside of the restaurant gave us a Menu and invited us to enter. She took care of us and recommended The Scallops, the huevos rancheros, and the ribeye, we really enjoyed a wonderful meal, the atmosphere and the kind waitress. We can not wait to try other dishes”
“Wonderful restaurant with a varied and unique menu. Their dishes are cooked to perfection and the service is impeccable!”

“Our server was Haley and she was so polite and attentive. She never let me run out of water. Our food was hot and delicious. It was my birthday and Haley made me feel extra celebrated with a flaming baton in the dessert. Definitely would go back and ask to be in her section.”

“The blueberry bread pudding with goat cheese is delish!!!!! Full Stop! But, the shrimp and grits were perfect too! Shrimp cooked just right and the roux was expertly seasoned. Some of the best food I’ve had in a while! 🤌🏼 Oh, did I mention the friendly and prompt waitstaff? Get there! You won’t be disappointed. 😊”

“We always appreciate the tanginess Of the sauce and the perfect chewy crust. Definitely go for one of the large salads and if you haven’t tried the wings, they are killer and as big as advertised. Richard is often our server and he is on top of it. Never a bad experience at Carmines!”
“Wow! What an amazing show! The actors are so talented, and the food was very good.”
“Amazing evening out. Everyone was so friendly as you entered the restaurant. It started with one of the best pomegranate martinis I ever had. Our server Jessica was excellent and all the servers that came to the table paid attention to detail. The most impressive part of the evening was the impeccable style of chef Justin. We had the 6 courses chef’s adventure tasting menu and I cannot say enough about the cuisine. The harmony of flavors and the mastery of technique with the plating presentation was magnificent. The chef came to the table to explain each plate that was presented. He’s very knowledgeable regarding the dishes he prepares and you could see his personality come through in the way the dishes were plated and the flavors that came through with each plate. With the cuisine Justin is preparing this restaurant could be a Michelin star restaurant in notime. By the way I am gluten free so the chef had to make changes to my dishes only. I cannot say enough on how much we enjoyed the entire evening. We will definitely be visiting Matthew’s again.”
“We visited River & Post last night for the first time for a birthday dinner after hearing so many good things, and I can honestly say the praise was very well deserved. Everything from the quality and timeliness of our meals to the friendly, informative and attentive servers were exceptional, which sadly is not a common trait in upscale restaurants. I had the Broiled Ocean Platter which consisted of broiled mahi, three sea scallops and four large shrimp served in a citrus herb beurre blanc sauce, whipped potatoes and beautiful crisp tender veggies. All of my entre ingredients were cooked perfectly, the buttery lemon sauce was such a nice compliment to this dish and let all the distinct flavors of each seafood component shine. Too often sauces can be overpowering and used to moisten overcooked and flavorless seafood. I’m glad I opted out of a predinner salad or appetizer as this entre is very substantial and I wanted to save some room for dessert. My husband also very much enjoyed his choice of the Seared Filet Mignon served a mustard demi-glace, confit potatoes and sauteed broccolini. The steak was perfectly prepared to his medium rare request and he raved about how flavorful it was. Both of our meals arrived hot, beautifully plated, and we devoured them completely. Then the decision came for dessert. Since we were sharing, we opted for the wonderfully decadent Chocolate Mousse Torte. This torte could easily be called “Death by Chocolate” due to its intense deep chocolate flavor which had a more silken fudge like consistency than a typical fluffy mousse, but still seemed surprisingly light as the chocolate just melted in our mouths. The torte was served with a chocolate drizzle, freshly whipped cream and plump blackberries. What a wonderful finish to this birthday dinner! Thank you, R&P, for this great dining experience. We’ll definitely be back, and we won’t be waiting for the next birthday to do so.”

“We had a group of about 25 people o. Saturday, and the food and service were both top notch. Wiam and Raed jumped in with their crew, and took such good care of our huge group. The food was amazing, and most of us had never been there before, but all said we would be back. We can't thank them enough for hosting us!”
“I had an excellent experience at the First Watch on Beaches & Hodges thanks to Mr. Loren Sanford. He was incredibly welcoming and enthusiastic from the moment I walked in. His customer service was top-notch — he checked in to see if I had any concerns and maintained a very positive, friendly attitude throughout my visit. Truly a great representative of First Watch!”
“Tikka Bowls and Tacos offers a unique and delicious fusion of Indian and Mexican flavors. The build-your-own bowls and naan tacos are packed with fresh ingredients and bold spices, making each bite flavorful and satisfying. The Chicken Tikka Rice Bowl and Mango Lassi were standout favorites. The service was friendly, and the atmosphere was casual yet inviting. Whether you’re craving Indian flavors with a twist or looking for a fresh, customizable meal, this spot is a must-try! Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”

“This place is fantastic - it is small but mighty. We had a 20-25 minute wait but it was worth it and we aren’t locals but were in Middleburg visiting a family member this weekend. The food and frozen margaritas were fabulous but what really stood out was the service. I want to give a huge shout out to our server, Olivia, as she really went above and beyond to make our experience wonderful. She had no clue that our cousin’s husband passed away earlier in the week and that this was the first time she has been out for a meal without him - she was very emotional and sad but she wanted a frozen margarita so when all of us family members arrived in the area- that’s what she was getting. Olivia was very attentive and made sure we were well taken care of and we appreciated it tremendously. Everyone enjoyed what they ordered and the portion sizes are huge - the beef tip burritos and quesadillas are delicious and we would get those again every time. Best wishes for this business and they are going to have to expand eventually with what they have to offer!”
“We decided to come back to eat here after not visiting in about a year and the food was amazing! We had Grace as our server and she was very attentive! The shrimp quesadilla was delicious and the rest of our group loved what they ordered. Highly recommended!”
“We had such a great experience. Lizz was our server and she was amazing!!! This was our family’s first time here and we were celebrating our son for earning straight A’s on his report card. They gave him the most delicious donuts and Lizz made really excellent dish recommendations. We will return for sure!!”
“It's all about Matt! Food: My husband and I had Fried Catfish and Cajun fries. Great! Place: Very nice. Pleasant atmosphere. Service: Extraordinary! Server: Matt. This is where I get into details. Everything about this place was pretty much like any restaurant we have eaten at. But, the service is what separates one location from another. Our server Matt was the point man on this and he has it in spades. He never missed a beat. He gave his real recommendations on what dishes are good and which ones are great. He kept our glasses filled, constantly making sure our table was clean. Always stopping by to make sure we were fine without being overbearing. He paid close attention to what everyone (we were a table of 8) wanted. And the whole time he smiled and presented himself as someone who loves their job. I would go back to Cajun Crab just for him. Great service. He is why I give this place a 5-star. Thank you Matt.”
“Food was delicious! I got the pad Thai and bf got the curry duck. YUM!”
“One year ago we lost a very dear friend, co-worker, family member and loved one! We went to seasons 52 to celebrate his life and brought with us (his ashes). The staff at seasons 52 town center Jacksonville Florida was amazing and accepted the situation as if he was there! From the bar tender Michael who served him a drink to the receptionist who Renee who made us fell very welcome and treated our friend with respect and dignity to our waiter Blake who also went the extra mile to make our experience exceptional! We would like to recognize these people for helping us make our friends night out so very special we will be back every year because of them and the service, not to mention the food was amazing! Thank you!”

“We really enjoyed our meal last night! We started with tuna poke served with wonton chips. It was so fresh and the chips were crisp. My husband got the grouper special and ate it all. I got the scallops. They were seared perfectly, the grits were creamy, and I'd love the collards recipe lol. Thanks for a great meal”
“We had 2 pm reservations on Thanksgiving Day and were surprised only a short wait to be seated. We spend every holiday here and have always loved every aspect of our dining experience. Things started off great but within fifteen minutes we were surrounded by a large party of 20 which seemed to take all the servers attention and the Gauchos never had any meats left by time they got into the back corner where we were. We finally flagged down our waiter (I believe his named was Marcus or Morgan) he was amazing he got meats to our table and apologized profusely-he was a gem. We are in the business so we made the best of the situation. Upon leaving we were walking to our car and I mentioned that next visit we would not choose a holiday but maybe a weeknight and a young manager heard me and immediately called us over and we explained. He knew exactly where we had been sandwiched in and he took the time to rectify the situation and I have to say he was amazing-problem solved and what a professional staff all around! Hats off to the manager-real professional!”
“Amazing staff, wonderful ambiance, the most delicious espresso martinis and food! My family and I evacuated to Jacksonville from hurricane Milton and the staff made my night. I went there a ball of nerves and left feeling grateful for the amazing experience. Thank you to Jessica and your staff!! ~Christina from Seminole”

“I know this isn't a local joint, but it was late and local options were slim at the time. I wanted to send a shout out to Waffle House on Baymeadows Road in Jacksonville for an excellent experience last night. We walked in for a late dinner at 10 minute to 9. They were packed and short staffed. We grabbed the only open table and the shift leader (manager?), who was also cooking, brought our drinks and took our order, advising that it may be a wait. While we were there, 4 staff members that had been called in to help showed up and went right to work. They were a well oiled machine, continually checking on all of the tables, apologizing for the wait, and thanking everyone for their patience. We got our food and left within an hour. If we had gone to the IHOP 2 doors down, we would have still been waiting for our food (even in the best of times.) I know times are tough for the service industry right now, but these ladies and gentlemen handled it with grace and efficiency. I tipped 50% of the bill, and would have done much more if I could have.”
“Truly enjoyed my visit for dinner. The live music playing while walking in the front door to be seated set the moment up nicely. Dinner was amazing and so was my company. Poppy took amazing care of us with her exemplary knowledge and service. Thank you for the memorable experience.P,S Louie my good friends dog especially enjoyed his chicken of the doggie menu!!!”
“Honestly, this Whataburger location delivers the best customer service I’ve experienced at any food establishment. I stop by often in the mornings, and every employee consistently greets me with warmth and a smile. The thoughtful gesture of handing the bag off with two hands is such a small detail, but it really makes a difference.
The food is always made to order, hot, and fresh. I’ve never had anything less than an excellent experience here. On one occasion, I accidentally placed my order at the wrong location, but the staff here handled it quickly and without any issues.
I rarely take the time to write reviews, but this Whataburger truly deserves it. From the service to the food, they get it right every time!”
“Ole Baba — Specialty Food Delivery The food was fabulous, let me rephrase it ...., the food is fabulous I still have a leftovers. I love your cooking !!! I'm so glad God lead me to you and your family. So far I never have been disappointed, and everyone who ate over here in my house as well , they are so satisfied with your cooking. We love the potatoes and then meet and the rice of course as well ..., and the dessert - baklava I know it's made by hand personal touch, it's very fresh and very tasty, it just beautifully finishes the experience of dinner. I rather to order your food - truly cooked with love and care, and with true culinary art of balance of spices and herbs, than any other food in the market ... Thank you so much for all your beautiful heart you're putting into the food , you can taste your love in this food as you eat it. Be blessed, you and all your family and your business . ** This is NOT your fast food restaurant, all the food is prepared to the order (that means the chef is starting to cook from the scratch as soon the order is confirmed ) from fresh quality ingredients. This is why it will take much longer to receive this food... If you're in a big hurry and you want to have a fast food, do yourself a favor and order a burger from fast food joint.”
“5 starts just so people can see this.. this is the most disgusting place anyone could work at. General managers like to verbally abuse female staff. The bread is SO unsanitary! They do not wash their hands.. bread falls on the floor and they put it back on the line to be cut and bagged up. I wish the customers knew just how gross this establishment is!”
“This was one of the most pleasant experiences at Waffle House. I’m glad we stopped by this location when passing through town. The atmosphere was very fun, laughing going on all around between the staff and customers. Our waitress, Vion, was so nice. I’d come back to this location if I’m passing through town again.”

“I absolutely love this food, besides the wonderful taste you get a heaping amount of food. I have never seen such a large calzone and the taste is amazingly big. It is large enough to feed four people and still have some left. The value is totally amazing. The food here is authentic New York with an owner so willing to please, he takes pride in his food, willing to accept and implement whatever request is made , if it is possible to do it he will do it. Howies’ owner is scrimping and saving for a place to show off his food, if he can keep thieves from steeling his equipment. I for one is rooting for him and hope to see his establishment upgrade soon. He has all homemade food the pasta he makes from scratch actually everything he makes from scratch,so let’s all wish him luck on succeeding.”
“Tasty Cuban breakfast sandwich and empanada, so full of flavor! The coffee’s smooth and hits the spot. Staff is super friendly, and the whole place has that laid-back local vibe.”
“So let me tell you. I love their sushi. Good food. Great price. Always good service. Now a beef. I used to eat there twice a month. They give you fried Oreo for desert. Complements of the house. But when I order pick up guess what. They wanted to charge $6 for something they give me free. Used to be a regular and hate to even say something negative but that’s just not right.”
“Lovely owner (I’m assuming) explained everything simply and I loved how she interacted with the family who came in after us. The ice cream is SO GOOD. So thick and creamy. Pro tip, keep it simple on the base and go hard on the toppings if you like a lot of toppings. But it’s delicious enough to just get the sweet cream and have it plain! Such a cute shop 10/5 stars”
“Vale catered a beautiful and healthy lunch for the teachers and staff of Global Leadership Academy. From first contact through set up Aaron the manager and Sonny the owner handled the event like it was a white glove gala. Their communication was on point leaving no room for worries. Everything arrived hot, smelling delicious and set up with care. We ordered 1x Full Pan of Vale Rice 1x Full Pan of Cilantro lime Brown Rice and beans 1x Full Pan of Chipotle Mac n Cheese ( twice baked with extra cheese topped ) 1x Full Pan of Spinach and Arugula Salad 1x Full Pan of Baja Summer Kale Salad 1x Full Pan of Roasted Broccoli 1x Full Pan of Turmeric Onions and Peppers 2x Full Pan of BBQ Chicken 2x Full Pan of Turkey Spinach Feta Meatballs 2x Chipotle Ranch 2x Vale Vinaigrette 1x full pan of Almond Butter protein Brownies 20x white chocolate macadamia cookies 20x chocolate chip cookies. The meatballs are so yummy as well as the brownies. Everything was scrumptious and so fresh. I look forward to the opportunity to work with them again on my next event.”
“We have visited this establishment several times and everytime has been an outstanding experience. The food has always been amazing and very friendly service.”
“What an experience!!! Great food, great c/s, the atmosphere, is definitely different to the southern realm. I will definitely return, first visit was Sunday, I'm back Wed. It's a must try.”

“The service and friendly atmosphere made our meal and celebration of my 92nd birthday a very pleasant experience. I had a delicious steak and my wife had lobster. We enjoyed the meal and the staff and management stopping at our table to wish me a Happy Birthday.”
“10 out of 10. More if possible. Matt the GM got us in when they didn’t have anything available for the time slot we wanted, phenomenal service, delicious steaks, the most surprising dessert which we were celebrating for my 10 y/o. Would recommend to any and everyone.”
“I had the opportunity to celebrate my 5Oth Birthday Celebration at the Jacksonville location yesterday, and it was Phenomenal...if your looking for quality, exquisite, luscious meals..come here..if you are looking for 5 star customer service, come here...if you are looking for a quiet ambient setting, filled with a intimate dining experience..come Here.. this is the Best food I've tasted in a while, and III Forks does it with taste and style..thanks again Amber for being such a great host 10/10..can't wait to visit again.. Sincerely, Ms. Williams”
“For a small club. The vibe is low key and up beat. Customer service is on point. The staff is accommodating and the security make you feel safe. The facility is clean and the patrons are friendly. The club music caters to all listeners. The daytime happy hour is definitely respectable. The club managers stay on the floor to make sure the club's motion is positive!”

Cheap Eats
“SO GOOD! My family of six ate here and barely spent 100 bucks, which is pretty much unheard of. Every single one of us loved the food! Highlights were the BBQ pork rice noodles, milk tea, chicken wings, wonton soup, and the fried rice. Most of the dumplings were pretty good too. The white chocolate and dark chocolate panda/teddy bear buns were delicious. The staff were very nice, attentive, and the food came out pretty quickly, even though there was a line out the door most of the time we were there. Wish we lived closer, but we'll definitely be making a trip to come back soon.”
“Although I never noticed the restaurant next to Walmart, I found it on a food delivery app and decided to give it a chance, and I was very pleasantly surprised at the quality of the food, the generous portions, and reasonable prices. I would definitely order again.”
“Our family is a "frequent" customer of Tunis 103rd St., not only because of the delicious food, but the Employees at this location are AWESOME! When you call in an order or go into the restaurant - the Employees make you feel welcomed and appreciated! As we know - this level of professionalism is "not the norm"....and it is refreshing to do business with a Company who embraces providing superior food & service. Thank you to an incredible staff ! Sincerely, Lisa J.”
“An all around great experience! Popped in today for the first time and I know why people are raving. Food was quick, hot and delicious. Before we could get our order in the clock struck noon and the entire restaurant stood up to sing the National Anthem.. what an amazing feeling! Can’t wait to stop back in. 10/10 ⭐️”
“I’m from out of town and stay in the Baymeadows area for 2 extended periods during the calendar year. Metro Diner Southside has been my go-to breakfast stop for the past 6 years. The staff is so much fun to deal with, and it’s flattering to know that they recognize me whenever I stop in. The usual fare for me is standard food (omelettes/fried egg, meat, hash browns, toast); however, today’s choice was the pork chop & eggs special. Thoughts? This needs to be placed on the regular menu. Wow! The pork chop was “over-the-top” delicious and was a perfect match with the other items on my plate (OE eggs/HBs/biscuit). I’m hoping (praying?) that this dish stays on the specials list through this weekend! Special shoutouts to my 3 favorite servers (Rachel, Jacklyn, & Monica-all in a tie for 1st place) and to today’s greeter (whose name I can’t recall and apologize for that). All of them are friendly, efficient, and lots of fun to chat with. Keep up the great work. See y’all over the weekend!”

“We really enjoyed our meal last night! We started with tuna poke served with wonton chips. It was so fresh and the chips were crisp. My husband got the grouper special and ate it all. I got the scallops. They were seared perfectly, the grits were creamy, and I'd love the collards recipe lol. Thanks for a great meal”

“Salento Steakhouse in Silverleaf exceeded all expectations! Sitting at the bar was a fantastic choice, thanks to the incredibly knowledgeable bartender, Daniel. He crafted some of the best cocktails and expertly recommended dishes that matched our tastes. His skill and hospitality truly made the entire experience unforgettable.

And hanging with Daniel is a goldmine ❤️!”

“We dined at 13 Gypsies after trying to walk in a couple of times on spontaneous visits. So glad we finally were able to plan ahead and secure a reservation. We had the ricotta with smoked honey, the house made chorizo, the shrimp and the zanahorias. I everything was delicious and the service was excellent. We finished off our meal with nun farts (think beignets but crispier on the outside and much lighter on the inside) with homemade caramel sauce and a delicious cheesecake with berry compote. I am looking forward to another visit to try more of their menu- you should go too!”

“Best brewery in town. My favorite is their smoked wings. I actually like to get them naked. They have a really good taste. The services is always on point and the owners are so cool.”
“ALWAYS great food and great service! Very fresh sushi and salads! Their dinners are also always perfect, our favorite is the side filet medium. I love that you can get the usual full hibachi meals but if you don’t want that much food, they have a “side” menu where you can get just the hibachi meat without the veggies and rice. Best Japanese food around!”
“We had the best time at Fore Score! We are from out of town and wanted to have lunch with friends while having something for our kids to do too! Fore score was the perfect fit.

My wife had a brisket sandwich. The Tri-Tip was a bit tough, no surprise with that cut of meat. The Brisket was a perfect smoked tender. I want to go back when they have their ribs in stock.”

“I eat at this Golden Corral often. It’s close to my home. I ate here today Oct. 1st. for lunch. My server was Vera and as always she was awesome! Big smile with a wonderful personality. Vera works very hard at a demanding job. She takes care of everyone sitting in her section. Vera has a great work ethic and she deserves recognition from the manager for the job she performs. Thank you Vera for everything you do.”
“Our family is a "frequent" customer of Tunis 103rd St., not only because of the delicious food, but the Employees at this location are AWESOME! When you call in an order or go into the restaurant - the Employees make you feel welcomed and appreciated! As we know - this level of professionalism is "not the norm"....and it is refreshing to do business with a Company who embraces providing superior food & service. Thank you to an incredible staff ! Sincerely, Lisa J.”
“It's all about Matt! Food: My husband and I had Fried Catfish and Cajun fries. Great! Place: Very nice. Pleasant atmosphere. Service: Extraordinary! Server: Matt. This is where I get into details. Everything about this place was pretty much like any restaurant we have eaten at. But, the service is what separates one location from another. Our server Matt was the point man on this and he has it in spades. He never missed a beat. He gave his real recommendations on what dishes are good and which ones are great. He kept our glasses filled, constantly making sure our table was clean. Always stopping by to make sure we were fine without being overbearing. He paid close attention to what everyone (we were a table of 8) wanted. And the whole time he smiled and presented himself as someone who loves their job. I would go back to Cajun Crab just for him. Great service. He is why I give this place a 5-star. Thank you Matt.”
“I rarely enjoy the food and service at restaurants but this was a phenomenal experience. Caroline at the Jax beach location was wonderful waitress. The Red snapper was seasoned to perfection and the price was reasonable(average).would definitely recommend. The accommodations are nothing extra fancy inside but good food and good service.”
“Today we visited Chow's Country Buffet. The Salad Bar is stocked with all the favorites. Fried Chicken, Sweet Potato and Ribs were delicious. They have foods ranging from, Chinese food bar, BBQ and Steak bar to Seafood, Deep Fried Bar and of course Fruit and Salad Bar. The staff are friendly and very attentive. We will give an update on our next visit.”
“I have dined here often and always enjoy the experience. The food is very good, and the presentation is wonderful. Staff is prompt and efficient and I am always greeted with smiles. Bring a sweater, they tend to keep it cool in the restaurant. But I will never complain about that!”
“I order the super bap for delivery frequently. It's a healthier option than most delivery out there. The super bap has lots of vegetable options and the portion is enough for 2 meals. The veggies and pickled cabbage is always freshly made. It's a great option for when you don't want to cook but you're still trying to eat healthy.”

“My first time visiting the Sugar Factory was awesome! It was the best way to commemorate my 50th birthday. Our waiter, Frankie, was attentive, friendly, and patient. I am so happy I chose Sugar Factory, and I will be returning. Honestly, a celebratory dance is what I needed!”
“Years sago, my wife & I tried this specific location twice. We're usually "3-strike" people but the experience was so bad. they got 3 strikes in two visits! For this Thanksgiving, we decided to take my wife's mom but this was the only location we could get a reservation. We were reluctant to go but some friends of ours had been recently and said it had changed a lot... positively. Man has it changed! The GM, Mark, came by and spent some time talking with us. He has done an awesome job in turning things around! The food and service was excellent and the place was cheerful. We had to do a double take just to be certain we were at the same place. Our server, Ms Frenchy, was amazing! She was friendly, engaging and fully involved with providing us with grade a service and a contagious smile. She went above and beyond to insure our Thanksgiving was awesome. We will definitely be returning for a future date night.”
“Came here for my birthday, it exceeded all expectations. The ambiance is phenomenal. Allow yourself to be transported to a European oasis. Emily, our server, went above and beyond! Dare I say the best server I've ever had. Only con is the the menu is outdated and needs to be updated. I expected more from the food selection for the cost of the restaurant.”
“Had a great dinner! The deviled eggs are to die for and have inspired me to try to replicate them for holiday dinner. My drinks were delicious! We ate at the bar and the bartender took great care of us. I would highly recommend Firebirds to anyone looking for a great time.”

“The food was very good. Our grouper, which we came there for, was excellent!! The restaurant was very loud and constantly had a smell of marijuana. We do not eat seafood and asked if the crabcakes, with the New York strip steak, could be substituted for the salmon cakes. We were told that was not possible. Why not? The salmon cakes were even cheaper on the appetizer menu. Our waitress was wonderful.”

“What an amazing night out. Everything was designed to entertain the audience at the highest possible level including the performers, DJ, MC, and servers.
My first time at this location and want to tell you that these performers work hard to put on a good show. The outfits, dance moves, and energy were fire.
I rarely eat at places like this but was pleasantly surprised by the food offerings. Will definitely go again.”
“The flavor was exactly what I wanted after eating bland and fast food recently. The rice and chicken had adequate amount of spices. It was fresh and seems to have included high quality ingredients. The service was fast and the price just right. I would highly recommend this place”
“This is by far one of the best Mexican restaurants in Jacksonville. My wife and I learned about this place a week ago. We have now been here a few times. The staff is honestly one of the most professional, pleasant, and patient individuals we've come across in a long time. They make us feel as if we are walking into a family or very good friends house. I am not Mexican, (I am Ecuadorian) however I grew up in Los Angeles and enjoy mexican food very much. Their dishes are really fresh, they taste great, and the portions are very good and affordable. I love that they are able to accommodate my child, and made sure that his Torta was not only made the way he wanted it, but it also tasted amazing. The choco flan is out of this world. I would also like to recognize Jacobo (owner), he is one the most wonderful, pleasant individuals, I have ever met. When he and my wife talk about the different dishes their parents and family made for them, I can clearly see the enjoyment they experienced.”
“Amazing pizza, probably the best I’ve had a while. Fluffy crust, and pizzas always taste fresh. They always have amazing deals going on as well which just makes the experience overall better. Staff are very kind as well, and the place is very tidy. Will come back again!”

“Our server was Haley and she was so polite and attentive. She never let me run out of water. Our food was hot and delicious. It was my birthday and Haley made me feel extra celebrated with a flaming baton in the dessert. Definitely would go back and ask to be in her section.”
