“Macarons are of very high quality and a large variety of flavors are offered. I'm most impressed with the Madagascar Vanilla and Red Velvet flavors. The Napoleon is also of excellent quality, but it out of stock many times we have visited. The Macarons are pricy, but are of high enough quality to warrant it as a treat. Solid dessert shop.“
“Had a day after the wedding breakfast at the pub. They made up a cute little menu for us and Leah our server was so accommodating and kind! Thanks Clay for getting this together for us! It was so nice to see friends and family for a delicious breakfast after the wedding and to take a breath after the big day.“
“Cal was absolutely wonderful! His attention to our table was like none other! We will definitely ask for him again! Cal was very professional, knowledgeable, had a great personality; and is an asset to this establishment!Vegetarian options: I had the eggplant dish. It was very tasty, and filling!“

“Daniel took our order and he was the sweetest! Great customer service and great recommendations. We got a side of fries from here and they were amazing! Perfectly crisp on the outside. My sub was also delicious- fresh ingredients on tasty bread. Overall great experience and will 100% be back.“
“Absolutely delicious! Our group of 6 were seated quite promptly The view was fantastic. The service was flawless. Appetizers we ordered: fried green tomatoes, calamari, poke nachos - all absolutely divine no complaints Hubby and I I ordered: Ribeye steak medium rare - this was cooked to perfection. It just the perfect amount of seasoning and charred just the way I like it. Seated New Bedford scallops - can I just say these were some of the best scallops I've ever had? So fresh, so moist and tender, perfectly seared on one side with flavors locked in each bite The grits were creamy and the broth presented with a nice flavorful. Collard greens were cut like I prefer them to be, not too big that it slivers down and makes you choke and not too small that it makes you feel like you're eating shredded veggies. Small details matter and they nailed it! Overall a great experience. A highly recommended restaurant for date night and group events“
“15 minutes before closing, we were greeted as if it was the opening for the day. This was our first time visiting Vito’s Pizza and the young ladies who waited on us answered all of our questions, made recommendations enthusiastically and were very attentive to our needs. Vito personally came over to welcome us and express his appreciation for choosing his restaurant for dinner. Vito’s Pizza has been open for 8 years and I am angry with myself for not trying them out sooner. This will definitely not be my last visit and I surely will be telling my family and friends to check them out.“
“Pies are all homemade and delicious. I tried the strawberry rhubarb pie and the coconut cream..Then I had the spaghetti pie and Sheppard’s pie as well. Everything tasted good, my only complaint was that I wish that she would’ve use different meat in the spaghetti pie but that was the best out of the two pies. I can’t wait to go back. It’s very easy to miss, it’s not a fancy place but a cute little small house tucked away in the corner and the owner is a very nice woman.We got to chat for a little while and it was nice to find out that she was a true Christian woman. I pray that god blesses her business to expand and grow.“
“One of the best Pad Thai places in all of Jax! I’ve been to several pad Thai places all around here and this ranks in the top 3. Prices are very reasonable and the service was amazing. We had Michelle as our server and she made the whole experience very pleasant ! 10/10 for sure !“

“LOVE PELICAN SNOBALLS! We rented the SNOBUS for my son’s birthday party. They did a phenomenal job setting up & having patience for serving close to 40 kids. Totally made everyone’s day & I 1000% recommend this service to anyone looking to add something extra to their party or event. Thank you again so much team!“

“Cute little coffee shop and study spot! Order at the counter and plenty of seating in the shop. Lots and LOTS of coffee, tea, spritzer options with pastries, meat pies, and other savories and sweets to accompany! We got the blueberry muffin and they warmed it up for us -- so soft and delicious! My partner got the blue berry spritzer with watermelon and he liked it but it was an artificial watermelon flavor that wasn't for me. The pink strawberry peach spritzer that I got was from the Easter seasonal menu. I would try the matcha and chai the next time I come! Some of the seasonal flavors seem really delicious!“

“Delicious coffee and food! Out of this world pecan lavender bar. Highly recommend. More comfortable seating outside would make this coffee shop unbeatable - somewhere you can sit back and relax and enjoy the weather. Thank you around Bird.“
Ice Cream Shop • $$
“I absolutely love Kilwins ice cream and chocolate candy store! Every time I visit, I am greeted with the delicious smell of fresh chocolate and sweet treats. The ice cream is always creamy and flavorful, with a wide variety of unique fruit flavors to choose from.I am a huge fan of their chocolate treats as well. The chocolate is rich and smooth, and they offer a great selection of candies and confections to satisfy any sweet tooth. I also appreciate that they use high-quality ingredients in their products, making each bite a true indulgence.The staff is always friendly and helpful, making my experience at Kilwins even more enjoyable. I highly recommend stopping by this store if you're in the mood for a sweet treat. You won't be disappointed!“
“Bust burgers for miles. Fantastic theme. Gorgeous location. Great beer options. Delightful patio seating. Gets a little crazy with large parties. There is often beach vacationers enjoying the place. The bar always seems lively. They have shoes string fries which is my husband's absolute favorite. It brings some of the festivity of a Disney restaurant attraction. The menu has fun names for the items - literary theme and all. There is even Poe readings playing in the bathroom. The service is always good even when it gets super busy. I always have fun when we go here!“
“You can dine in or just buy wine/beer like a store. The food is amazing. Jerk chicken is a must. Mix of tapas and tapas plates that are big enough for an entree. Pick a bottle of wine off the wall and drink with dinner. Can take what you don’t drink home. Wine price is retail-ish so a very good value for drinks out. We go all the time.“
“I had a great time there! It was spacious enough, ample room for dancing and playing pool. The bartender was great! I went there to see Homegrown Losers cause I love their vibe! Caught the last half of Jawberry's set and I was impressed by them too! I trust Voo Swar to make solid live music choices.“
“Well we rarely ever complain but service was very slow outa the gates. We were seated lait on our reservation, and it took 40 minutes to get our appetizers. After asking our server Rei if he could please provide us more attention and were not happy with the service, he quickly made an extra effort to ensure the rest of our meal went above and beyond. Food was very good as usual (3rd time there) and ambience is perfect.“
“The coffee shop is super nice and good coffee but you will have to wait a fairly long time for a coffee. Three people on the bar and I had to wait over 15 mins for a coffee. :/ good thing do come to those who wait, but if you're in a hurry, you might be better at Starbies.“
“I absolutely love this place. If you have not tried it what are you waiting for? As soon as we walked in we were greeted with a kind warm friendly welcome. The store is small but the setup is perfect. There are many different flavors of cakes to choose from. They have the best icing on them that I've ever tasted. The cakes themselves are Bundt Cakes with cream cheese icing. There are different sizes to choose from depending on what your needs are. If you need it for a party they've got you if you need it for a gift they also got you. Or if you are indulging for yourself they got that too.“
“We were in the Opening of the Beach parade and stopped in for a little lunch. We ordered two pizzas and WOW were they great! Thin with a generous amount of sauce cooked on an imported fire pizza oven! Quick service and tasty food! The wings looked incredible as well! Florida Man “
“I attended a Christmas party hosted by my friend and was thoroughly impressed by the catering. The food, ranging from appetizers to main courses and desserts, was freshly prepared and delicious. I highly recommend their services for anyone looking for quality and taste in their event catering.“
“Love this place! Definitely a got to for me. Wish they had another location closer to the Riverside area. I love the dragonfruit smoothie but have tired other juices and smoothies and you can't go wrong. They a little seating area in the front of the store and you can sit and smell the wonderful ocean air. The staff is always nice and available to answer any questions you may have.“

“While I had enjoyed dining out here on dates and outings, it was when I was recently married here that I received the full breadth of why Maggiano's is a wonderful restaurant. The food is always delicious, no further words needed. Service is not only friendly, but willing to work extra to ensure your experience goes great. The menu is priced fairly, something increasingly uncommon even amongst higher end establishments like Maggiano's. Hosting an event here was easy and very accommodating. I was able to work with multiple people to fix more than a few unforeseen obstacles. I always feel warmly welcomed here, even when it's just on a simple outing.Vegetarian options: During my wedding (which came with a set menu), I had a few individuals mention they were vegetarian. While we had a spaghetti option that was vegetarian, the staff offered them alternatives that were very much enjoyed. That kind of service and respect goes a long way towards saying how Maggiano's treats vegetarian options.Parking: Maggiano's specific parking in the back is plentiful.“
“The food here is consistently excellent and so is the service! It's so nice to have such fresh, healthy options and the combinations seem endless so it is never boring. I really love the homemade salad dressings. This is my favorite go-to lunch spot.“
“Ordered today for the 1st time and it's my favorite place now for onion rings! They're THE best I've ever eaten - and I've eaten lots. And they even make malts and milkshakes that are REAL! Like with real ice cream rather than that fake stuff.This restaurant has totally yummy food!“
“Met some coworkers here for breakfast. They were visiting from IL. 2 of us had coffee, very good. 2 had sandwiches, both good. 1 cinnamon roll (eh, I won't order again) and 1 apple juice I think. Cute little place, charming. I would go again.Kid-friendliness: Was definitely kid friendly.“
“My first time trying this place it was a game changer the pulled pork was fabulous and the mac and cheese is homemade they give you generously portions and it's all delicious I will be going back again goodbye bono's I'm hooked“
“I just want to thank the young lady and young man today working! My daughter and I stopped for lunch &We were greeted with genuine smiles and assisted with our order & they gave me options and helped make my ordering so easy!I also couldn’t help but compliment the deliciousness on the food! Our ultimate sub was sooo much better this time around! We come often and we were so impressed!ALSO!! The cookies!!! We ordered two cookie, Chocolate chip and m&m with chocolate chip,They were fresh & so good!I would rate them higher if I could. I left the store so happy & they need to hear it ? Great work!Kid-friendliness: They walked us through our order as my daughter was asking questions on the ingredients in the sub ❤️“
“Friday night nice chill atmosphere, place was filled with boomers “$$” had some great conversations at the bar.Knowledge young lady behind the bar provided great wine recommendations.Went back Saturday night whole different atmosphere place was filled with Gen Z & 50 cent blaring couldn’t have a conversation.Bought a bottle of Red wine that we liked from previous night & went back to room to enjoy while watching lightning show & listening to Sirius Xm.Just depends on what your into I guess“
“THANK GOODNESS I ordered the half sandwich and soup!!! Because it was more than enough! Even though I finished every last bite! The regular sandwiches are HUGE!!! I noticed lots of nice servings of healthy dishes passing by on their way to the other hungry customers. Nice choice for fresh food!“
“Solid place. Been to a few in other cities but this one is slightly better than the rest. Staff makes sure you are taken care of. Sometimes the cheesecake slices are kind of small if you order it from the table but the easy fix is to just go up there and choose a slice yourself. I recommend Town Center Cheesecake “
“Great food, great people and clean environment. There was this blonde girl there that was the sweetest and nicest she was efficient, clean ,quick, nice. She was young but a great worker I got the double bacon pepperoni which is great I love how they cut it! Over all I will definitely be coming here “

“Over 1500 bottles to choose from while you’re there. The food and the service are top notch here. Any of the staff can help you find the perfect pairing wine with your meal. Don’t forget dessert! They have a full time pastry chef that makes everything in house. One of our favorite family owned restaurants in Jacksonville!“
