“Our Angel Moms group had our Mother’s Day brunch today! Today also happened to be International Bereaved Mother’s Day! We had an amazing time. Brian was an outstanding server and even happened to know some of the kids who had passed. The food, drinks and service were excellent!! Highly recommend!”

“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: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”

“Been in Jax for a year and finally made it to Vito's. We'll be back soonly.

Had a reservation and seated quickly. Loved the atmosphere. Dim lighting, white table clothes. Nothing off the scale too fancy. It was all very comfortable. Tables all taken, servers all over. The first thing I noticed were the servers ... the were all busy and taking care of tables. None were idle.

Started w/ house Chianti and fried ravioli. Both great ... raviolis were huge. Red sauce served with it was the house marinara. It was perfect ... and I'm a big red sauce guy. We followed with a Vito salad and a Caesar. Both the right size and the Vito dressing was good.

For entrees I had Chicken Picata. My wife had chicken saltimbocca. This was the highlight of my meal. Two lightly browned cutlets over a bed of spaghetti. Not too many capers and not overly salty which is always a risk. It was perfect! One of the best I've had. My wife had enough to take home for lunch today.

We held our ground on the bread and dessert as we are trying to watch carbs pending a wedding.

Major kudos to Anthony our server. A genuinely nice guy. Answered our questions, super attentive, always there at the right moment. The place has a new number one fan! I'll be back!

Total bill before tip [two glasses of wine, appetizer, two salads, two entrees] just over $90. Very well worth it!”

“This restaurant not only has a fabulous ambiance, but the food and service is 5 plus stars!! Highly recommend! Will not disappoint!”

“Just moved to Jacksonville and found Balas Pizza in a shopping center close to our new rental. There baked wings are wonderful but their New York style pizza is the best pizza I’ve had outside of NYC.”

“Oh. My. Goodness. This was absolutely the best Indian we’ve had in town. BEST tikka masala, garlic naan and chicken biryani. Julia was so nice and accommodating. We’ll be back very soon!”

“We have been hoping for a local pizza place we can go to. We live in south Hampton so location wise it’s perfect. Good price and the food is fantastic. Highly recommend.”

“Online ordering is super easy. Food was ready on time and it was delicious! Their zucchini noodles, quinoa, and chicken with the green pesto sauce is the best. Also love their quesadillas!”

“They're kind of like Cheers! Where everyone knows your name! Mario and crew are terrific, and the food is delicious!”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Juice Tap is awesome! The juices and smoothies are super fresh, flavorful, and not overly sweet. You can tell they use quality ingredients. The staff is friendly and the place has a great vibe. Perfect stop for a healthy boost. I’ll definitely be back!”

“Took 2 of my daughters and my nephew to try some smoothies yesterday and it was amazing! We had a Nutella Bliss, 2 Island Oasis and a Cocoloco (as a smoothie)… they were delicious! The staff was polite, knowledgeable and very helpful answering all of our questions. Highly recommended!”

“We love Salas especially taco Tuesday! They have so many options and the food is always excellent . Staff is friendly and we enjoy the environment. We were able to try a new dessert Tres leches that is only at the Durbin location and all I can say is WOW! Recommend trying it.”

“Maria was our waitress and she was very kind. She was sweet and the food was great. Love the fluffy pancakes. She even brought out an extra plate without asking.”

“Went for lunch and sat at the bar, Luis was great and the food was even better. Got essentially dinner sized portion of fajitas for a lunch price ($16 for steak) will be back”

“Great food & service!”

“Busy place! Great staff and care - took time with each customer to help get exactly what they wanted.
Ordered two hot drinks - Happy Camper and Road Trip. Both delicious choices. Recommend when in and around Jacksonville.”

“Ellianos has to be my favorite on the go coffee shop there is. Not only do the barista’s give you good customer service, but the quality is by far better by leaps and bounds compared to their competitor Starbucks to be honest there’s not really a competitor. I want to give a shout out to an exemplary employee at the Ellianos coffee shop on racetrack Road in St. John’s Florida, named JOHN. This gentleman was not only patiance , but was willing to make a different drink than I originally ordered just due to preference. His words exactly, “sir I’m here to make you the perfect drink.” What a professional young man and someone who took pride in what they do. That as a customer, I not only value but appreciate which makes me come back to this location over and over. Keep up the good work!”

“Great! Nothing else to say”

“I love the Mochi donuts and Boba tea but Most of all I love seeing Angie behind the counter. Customer service is fantastic.”

“One of the best Happy Hours. Drinks are excellent and 1/2 price appetizers are very good. Wish they would add Fried ravioli. Would be great with their marinara sauce. We had a Thursday "special" meal. It was the best beef stroganoff we have ever had! Should be on the menu, even though it isn't Italian.”

“Have lived in this area since 1999 and this restaurant has consistently provided the very best service and food since it opened. The food is always excellent and ready for pickup when promised. The owners and employees are hard workers with terrific professional attitudes. I look forward to seeing them and enjoying the fresh delicious food they prepare.”

“Perfect!🚀 Must try pastas and wines🍝🍷🍕🌯”

“Fantastic staff, food, and drinks”

“Great Service. Delicious Treats 🙌🏼”

“This was my first visit, but will not be my last! My daughter and I went to the St. John's location where we ordered cocoa waffle, plain Korean chicken, coconut blue, peach green tea with Crystal pearl, fried French toast and a cute plush. Total was about 50$ before tip. All of it was delicious! The staff was very friendly and the inside was clean.”

“10/10 best I’ve had in a while. No exaggeration 😇😇😇🏆🏆🏆”

“Usually when you go into a Metro diner it is really loud in there. The one that we went to was not. It was really surprising. It had a ceiling instead of being open so it was much quieter than normal. The food was really good I had the Philly cheesesteak and my wife had chicken fingers. She asked for mashed potatoes and gravy instead of fries and it was no problem. They gave it to her everything that we had was really good and would definitely go back to this one again”

“Food is always hot and fresh; and service is always good. Burgers are the best on 210 in my opinion. Not loud atmosphere which I prefer.”

“Jade is my favorite! I love the location!”

“Amazing food!!!! Quick and friendly service. Just like a northern fish fry!”

“Me and my sister go here a lot! And it’s amazing everytime, food is always great workers are always nice. Overall it’s a great experience to come to this amazing place! Definitely recommend!”

“We came here after trying an appetizer and fountain drinks at Don Juans but we were so disappointed in the lack of flavor and everything being overpriced with $26 for a small bowl of queso and four fountain drinks. Our server was Rudy, he was very attentive, personable and did a wonderful job making sure we were taken care of. He made sure to correct anything needed. The food was great. This is the first Mexican restaurant where the food actually was flavorful and seasoned well. The steak was juicy and tender, cooked to perfection. The portions were wonderful enough for 2-3 people. The Grave Digger Nachos were so freaking good. The Chimi Chimi Bang Bang taco was fire. Definitely give them a try! Worth the drive from Macclenny! Thanks again Rudy and the cooks for making the food taste delicious.”

“Just wanted to say that we met one of the owners today, Jack. He was wonderful and so personable! He made sure our food was excellent and we were taken care of. We appreciate the opportunity to enjoy your food and we will certainly be back! If you haven’t been here you are truly missing out.”

“Well, ive been coming here for a few weeks, since my sister's got me hooked on it and let me just say it is always a pleasure to come in and feel like im in home away from home. The food is always quick, easy, and absolutely delicious. The customer service and kitchen staff are on par with that of a Michelin star restaurant, I mean the people are open minded and always greet me with a smile, they know my food by heart because I'm a regular now. They literally do their best to make sure everything is perfect, and I love it! It feels like a mom and pop shop with a big happy family. It might seem like they couldn't get better, but they're always improving. Big shout out to ashlyn and the one manager with the glasses, I forgot her name, though she just told me. But thats my memory just being bad.”

“The food and service were good but to charge $1.75 for a few ounces of milk to go with a $4 cup of coffee is a little desperate and classless. That extra charge is like "the straw that broke the camel's back". Calculate the loss in repeat business vs. that charge. Doesn't add up. Something for management to think about.”

“One of the most organized and fantastic restaurants ever! The staff is always smiling and friendly and the food is fast and delicious! Thank you Grumpys!!!”

“Fabulous sushi-super fresh, awesome service and great prices. The beef teriyaki bowl was also great. Lots of beef and veggies with a authentic Japanese flavour. Highly recommend this restaurant. 👏👏👏”

“Was very happy with the quality and service. Renata went out of her way to be sure I was happy with my order. Delivery service is awesome and mini Bundt cakes were delicious!”

“I stopped by this Starbucks, because my car is in the shop and I needed a place within walking distance (.9 miles) and wanted a place I could sit down in and enjoy my matcha latte. The facility is very nice and the batistas are very hospitable. But what was most heart-warming was when I witnessed one of the baristas sign with a hearing impaired customer to resolve a problem. The batista was professional and extremely nice, admitting that she had made the error and helping to fulfill the customer's needs. I am sure that there are many times that hearing impaired customers feel invisible. But, I am sure that this customer felt seen today. I want to thank that barista again for making my day and showing that there are people out there who still care.”

“Food was super fast & tasty! Your employee, Katie was friendly & very helpful. We will definitely be back.”

“Today was my first time visiting Kinder Kafe and the ambiance is delightful! I was greeted with a huge smile! The Barista who assisted me in choosing my beverage is so knowledgeable & helpful. The cappuccino was delicious! I highly recommend Kinder Kafe!”

“Everything I have had here is amazing, great food with amazing service!!”

“The food and the atmosphere here is absolutely wonderful the service was fantastic and friendly. Our server Katherine was very knowledgeable about all food orders an extremely kind & friendly and very bubbly, the other servers are just as friendly & kind. The restaurant was extremely clean and well kept.. this place is very family-friendly and if you have never had Japanese soup I advise you to come here and try it. And I have to say It was so nice and refreshing to see young adults who are very social with their customers. They were so respectful and very patience while we decided our orders. There's plenty of parking. I give it five stars all the way through ❤️”

“Randy and Laur are the most delightful individuals and single handedly make my day better every single time I go through this drive thru.”

“My first visit and it was amazing food was great; fresh OJ amazing and our server Madison was the best; I will be back on my next trip”

“Everything was awesome. Our food, the wait staff so nice and did a great job!”

“Food is pretty good. It's probably the only fast food franchise that won't give you food poisoning. Can't beat their custard..There burgers are good, but they aren't Wisconsin Culver's good. Burgers are missing that butter, grease, flavor?”

“The food is always fresh and on point, crispy veggies, perfect noodles and tender dumplings. The service is excellent and the staff is always friendly. China House is our go-to for Asian food.”

“Delicious food. Personnel are courteous! We love to come back soon”

“Highly recommend Sweet Cravings By Shar. Wonderful to have an amazing bakery in St Johns 32259. Wonderful staff, great service so helpful easy to place an order. Specialty pies, wonderful desserts you name it they can do it. You will not be disappointed.”

“First time there a week ago food and service was perfect! I brought another friend 5 days later but this time the food was barely lukewarm. Service was good but my friend did not want to complain that her chimichanga was cold. Sometimes you just don’t feel like it. I didn’t care for my dish which I wouldn’t order again which was quesadilla with chicken and pineapple. I couldn’t taste the pineapple. I’ll go back but order something different.”

“Great atmosphere and there is seating inside and out (with fans). Pet friendly. Plenty of parking as it is located in a strip mall. Not too far off I-95 The burgers and wings were both fantastic and there is also a bar. Wait staff was very attentive and helpful. Clean bathrooms.”

“Observing no meat on Fridays during Lent, we ordered Shrimp Lo Mein and Shrimp Egg Foo Young. We ate there and were pleasantly surprised. For a fast food joint, they have a few tables and serve pretty good food. The service was friendly too.”

“Good food, great for conversating. Great fried rice with yummy sauce! Mmm!!”

“I love this Starbucks specifically. People are so nice there. They’re quick and if what will apologize for the wait. I always make sure to leave a good tip. I adore their iced latte with extra caramel drizzle and cold foam. They always get it right and it makes my day🙏🏼”

“I had the best experience when I was at smoothie king on 12/28/25. Lara was super friendly with answering any questions with a smile on her face and even offered a pup cup for my puppy. Great tasting smoothies”

“Food was amazing the servers where excellent nice atmosphere and clean 10/10 highly recommend.”

“Fantastic service after being treated very rude at another location... The employees did a BANG UP job and greatly appreciated... Drove 8 miles past my home to get my subs and the rother location is only 2.1 miles... Thank you for renewing my faith in Jersey Mike's and humanity... Customer for life at this location y'all rock and definitely worth the drive”

“the food was amazing and the service was also just so amazing def will come back again. when i step foot into the building im greeted and i feel so amazing and i feel like a weight is lifted off my chest and the moment i took a bite of the food i was filled with joy with how fresh and good the food was. will recommend to a friends and family. ❤️”
