1. Seafood Kitchen
Overall Ratings

OUR STORY Let Seafood Kitchen serve you the freshest seafood Jacksonville has to offer. The Stuart's- father and son duo- have been serving ridiculously large portions at super low prices for 32 years and counting! Seafood Kitchen has a new face to share with Jacksonville. The Stuarts still hang their biggest catch on the wall, they still serve huge family portions, fishermen still boast about their latest catch, and generations of local patrons dine with tourist and businessmen on locally, and often owner caught seafood.

Seafood Kitchen is one of our favorite seafood restaurants in Jax to eat at. The seafood is always fresh and most often local caught. The owner makes numerous trips around the dining room to ensure you are enjoying your meal with no issues. Most recently we went for the crawfish as they are in season and my husband was very happy with them. A special shout out to Meledy and the great service she provided. Definitely recommend and will return.
2. North Beach Fish Camp

The restaurant is located in trendy, busy, hard-to-park-in Atlantic Beach. Reservations are strongly recommended as this place is super popular and jammed.
The atmosphere is loud (really loud) with a high level of energy. Tables are close together making privacy non-existent. But all that proximity and noise is actually part of the charm of the place. Just know this isn't a restaurant to select for a romantic, quiet dinner.
The menu is long and good. Good option for a group, fun meal.

Our party of 12 arrived for a late lunch and were pleasantly please that we could still order some breakfast items. There were a variety of options to choose with the majority of our group choosing The Five, a biscuit with fried chicken, gravy, cheese and bacon with a bit of spice. It was more than good, it was great. The grits were also good and the smoked bacon was wonderful. I was still a bit hungry so I decided to put in an order for the cinnamon type biscuit covered in sweet glaze, it was also very good and the little bit of cinnamon chips baked into the biscuit was a great treat. The owner was on hand and she was very pleasant and they really took good care of our group.

We have been here several times for fun and family dinners. The atmosphere is electric and the food is wonderful. We had 7 without a reservation on a busy Sunday evening and were seated in 20 minutes. They were packed but made it happen. Table side guacamole is the best! Service and food was great, everyone had a different assortment of tacos. We will be back!

Third visit combo plate: shrimp and oysters
Shrimp r the the best anywhere, and so were the oysters—which were bigger and even tastier than last time. Got there at 1130 this sat. Although the apparent height of rush, the line moved quickly, approximately 7 minutes. Ate on terrace as was nice and cool and found table.
The absolute best place for seafood in very cas atmosphere!!!!!!

Was there in January and received usual large portion meals but items were cold. Today the bread was served frozen on a pastrami sandwich. Unbelievable! Guess it is going down hill as it claims high rating but don't want to maintain the rating. Won't be back anytime soon. So sad....
8. Beach Diner

The Beach Diner is one of our favorite spots for breakfast, and we've been coming here for years. The food is always fresh and delicious and the staff friendly and accommodating.
Two favorites are the breakfast Turkey sausage and the egg salad sandwich with bacon in a pita. I love poached eggs and one of the best things about Beach Diner is that they poach the eggs just the way you tell them, every time.
Prices are very reasonable, and they seem to have resolved their property dispute with the Gate station going in next door. You have to park in a construction zone right now but that's temporary. Certainly it is an enough to keep you from coming here for breakfast or lunch.
Beach Diner is a great beaches institution, and a pretty good value, absolutely worth visiting.

10. Mojo Kitchen BBQ Pit & Blues Bar
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 247 reviews
Reviewed By RLWOrangePark - Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida
We decided to try something different during this visit to the restaurant and so we both ordered fish (Bourbon-Maple Glazed Salmon and Blackened Grilled Mahi-Mahi). We shared the two orders and we both thought each fish was equally excellent. Very tasty and moist with just the right amount of seasoning. We also split our side orders of onion rings (best ever), french fries and cole slaw. Service from Elyse was outstanding; very friendly and attentive. This proved to us that Mojo's is more than just a BBQ restaurant (and they are excellent at that).
