Last night was somewhat disappointing , the service was great, the atmosphere was good, but the food was not where it should be, the taste was ok, but the presentation was not very good as it looked like the food was “thrown” on the plates, never had this experience. Hope this was a one time glitch from the kitchen.“

“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!“

“Great Afternoon, great food. Thank you Ava our hostess, for your patience and beautiful smile we all loved you.“

“Had a great time playing golf for the first time. Excellent views and staff!!!“

“Great brunch with great service. Approx. 60 min wait was on a Sunday at prime brunch time like 11:30am. Extremely dog friendly if you sit outside, multiple staff interacted with him and brought him a pup cup and water bowl! Food was great and easy to order exactly what you need with options for dietary restrictions. Vegan pancakes are delicious. Our server Becca was very attentive and friendly! Approx.“

“My wife and I recently discovered this place and have really enjoyed golfing and dining here. Tonight at dinner, we witnessed two young men (probably 20) come in and have an altercation with the manager behind the bar. It was clear they had been witnessed misbehaving on the course and came in to start trouble. The manager was extremely professional, courteous, and calm. My wife and I both own/run businesses and we were very impressed. Alli would be an asset to any organization…but we are glad she’s here.“

“Lew was amazing host did a very good job.“

“Little base gem! The staff is wonderful, and the food was spectacular. All around great experience! Just keep in mind the restaurant is part of the golf course so parking can be hard but there’s miscellaneous areas to park around base if there’s none at the front“

“I visited Twin Peaks today and Savannah was our server and she did a great job! She kept the beers coming and even took a pic with my friend even though he didn’t want me to post 😂😂😂 He a great time and will definitely be back!!“

“A view tough to compete with; right on the beach. Go see Justin at the bar for a delicious cocktail and as much peel 'n eat shrimp as you can handle. Fair pricing for location, and above average service and ambiance We'll be back!“

“The staff at Monkey's Uncle are amazing, from the door to the waitstaff to the bartenders- they are all just genuinely nice hardworking folks! The vibe is fun and the environment is energizing. Looking for a good bar snack? Try the cajun pork rinds. Wings are my next order!!!“

“Complete 🔥. One of thee best there is!“

“Service here is always great. Bartenders are awesome, especially Cierah! Love this place, been coming here for years! Shelby and Lilli are also great servers.“

“Fresh fast food with large menu options.“

“Upcharge on drinks (ordered drinks from drink menu, but was charged for a more expensive alcohol). Bread charge. Food was over cooked. Noisy atmosphere. Why all the 5 stars?“

“We had a great time today and Stache was probably the best bay host we’ve ever had at any TopGolf! We’ll definitely stop by the next time we’re passing through Jacksonville.“

“This place is the best. Awesome staff. They remember their customers orders and the food is always delicious. It is the local place to be for breakfast!!!!!“

“Wonderful meal today at Mayport Oasis.
April 23,2026. Lobster, Steak and Chicken, plus all the extras. Salad bar had everything imaginable and last but not least was an exquisitely decorated cake and ice cream bar. Can’t imagine anyone not wanting to enjoy the Oasis on their special Thursday lunches.“

“We planned a quick last minute wedding, and Kira was beyond accommodating. She was always available, and her communication was on point. Texting, calling, showing up…she always made time for me even if she was in the middle of something else. We originally reserved the dining room for our family reunion, but due to extenuating circumstances, our brunch turned into a last minute wedding celebration instead. Kira went over all our options and recommendations, sat down with me to plan the seating arrangement, and brunch menu, and even created a fancy custom drink menu for us. The venue was beautiful. The views were gorgeous. The buffet display and food was amazing. The table settings and linens were lovely. The bartender and wait staff were phenomenal. They made this day so perfect in every way. they went above and beyond & I cannot rave enough about our wonderful experience. Thank you so much, Kira.“

“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.“

“Nothing special unfortunately. We got the avocado toast, chicken panini sandwich and kids eggs. I asked for a runny egg on top of the avocado toast, it came not runny. The STOK coffee was delicious however. The chicken panini was tasty.“
