Blackened sheepshead,  black beans and rice, pico, mango salsa, and guacamole.
Edward A.

Have had multiple great experiences here - can't believe I haven't reviewed until now. Service is always on point from the staff - tonight it was Sierra and she was solid in both friendliness and attentiveness without being too overbearing. I had the monkfish meal tonight which was very good. I'm slowly going thru the seafood selections on each visit. So far, it's gonna be tough to beat that bang bang cod with Pad Thai. Consider us fans of this place which is consistent every visit. Save room for the bananas foster bread pudding. It's definitely enough to share.

I'm a frequent visitor to AquaGrill and always look forward to the experience. The ambiance is consistently good and inviting, relaxing, and perfect for any occasion, this time we were seated on the patio. On my most recent visit, the service was great Zack took great care of us and he was attentive, friendly, and professional throughout the evening. Most of the meal was absolutely amazing, as usual. However, we did run into an issue: the pork chop, which I've ordered and loved in the past, was undercooked this time and had to be sent back. While it was a letdown, especially since I know how excellent it usually is, I appreciate Zach handled it promptly.

Aqua grill is a consistent choice in Ponte Vedra Beach near TPC Sawgrass. Great atmosphere and comfortable dining with great service. Food is consistently flavorful and presented nicely. The bananas foster bread pudding is delicious.

Fried Green Tomatoes at Aqua Grill, Jacksonville Fl.

We had a wonderful lunch here today. I truly enjoyed the fried green tomato entree with smoked bacon & goat cheese (or was it feta), either way it was delish. The husband had the shrimp po boy with some of the biggest "wavy" fries I've ever seen. I had the chicken salad platter with Lu ious chunks of chicken breast with fresh tomatoes, cucumber, red onions and mozzarella on the side. For sweetness they added blueberries and strawberries but the true gold was the dried cherries in the chicken salad!! Well don Aqua Grill. The service was amazing and the ambiance on the outside patio watching the turtles play and ducks swimming made for a wonderful, much needed outing.

Last minute decision to eat here for NYE and we had a great experience. We did not have reservations but were immediately seated on the patio. I was worried it would be too cold, but the fire kept the space warm enough. Service was excellent and the food was better than usual. The fried green tomatoes are a must even if you don't usually care for them. The specials for the night all sounded delicious but we settled on the shrimp/striped bass and half roasted chicken specials. Sides were good and portions were more than enough. We had plenty leftover to take home. The bananas foster dessert was not as good as usual and only had a tiny spoonful of ice cream. Overall, great way to spend the last evening of 2025.

Mac n Cheese

One of our favorite dinner spots. We had the fried green tomatoes. They came out hot and cooked to perfection. I had the AG salad and it was good. Our entrees were amazing. The disappointment for me was dessert. The ice cream came out melted and the bread in the bread pudding was hard and stale. Great service. Sat outside on a cold New Year's Eve, but the heaters made it very comfortable.

I thoroughly enjoyed my lunch visit to the Aqua Grill. The food was excellent and the outside seating was so breezy and relaxing. I would have given 4 stars because our waiter forgot a lot of things and disappeared for a long time (we were his only table apparently). However, an older gentleman, I'm assuming a supervisor, came and filled our drinks and fixed the problems immediately. He gave us a free dessert to make up for our orders being messed up. Everything tasted perfect and I loved how we didn't have to complain or ask because the supervisor noticed, apologized, and fixed the problem. That is truly amazing customer service and I'll definitely be back.

Steak frites- NY Strip

Aqua grill offers several different dining areas, and each has its own vibe. I truly enjoy the lakefront seating outside on the patio. During fall evenings, you can enjoy beautiful sunsets. They also have a private dining room and an area with a chef's pass table, which is kind of nice if you have a group that you want to impress. Of course, there is the bar area known for great happy hour specials. The dinner menu offers several starters, which we enjoyed: the charcuterie board and some calamari, which was very delightful and we also shared the Mediterranean platter. All starters were very good. Everything was fresh, vibrant-looking, and there were no problems with the starters. The menu itself is something you may want to view before you go to the restaurant. They offer a lot of seafood for the seafood enthusiast and have six non-seafood entrees, such as New York steak and filet mignon. Of course, last but not least, they have a beautiful bananas Foster bread pudding that you have to try, big enough to share with your whole table. Our server was a delight and just really wanted to make sure that we felt well taken care of and we did.

Short Rib
JiMmy P.

Friday Night Dinner with My Love. We were promptly seated upon arrival and the ambiance was a cozy and inviting atmosphere. To start, our server brought over a complimentary cinnamon-sugar bread that was warm, but just ok. For the mains, my wife ordered the whole snapper while I chose the short rib. We couldn't resist swapping plates halfway through to experience both dishes. The short rib was rich and flavorful. The fish was also delightful, though I wasn't a huge fan of the side it came with. Just okay to me, but my wife really enjoyed it. For dessert, we shared the bread pudding with cappuccino and it was yummilicious! The perfect sweet ending to a wonderful meal. Overall, the service was attentive and friendly. A lovely evening all around.

Blackened Fish & Shrimp Tacos
Kelsey C.

We sat on the patio which has a nice view of the water. We started with the Sauteed PEI Mussels, which were fresh and tasty. Our server asked if we also wanted some bread and butter, and we were so glad we said yes because it was amazing. For my entree, I had the Baked Trout Rizzo. The sauce on the fish was very good, but the Trout itself wasn't my favorite. My bf had the Blackened Mahi Mahi + Shrimp tacos and a side of Mac & Cheese, which wasn't his favorite. There were lots of things on the menu that sounded good, so I will be back for some more bread and to try them.

Are you trying to avoid delicious food, a welcoming atmosphere, and stellar service? Then you want to stay FAR AWAY from Aqua! Tara, the manager there (who is also a HOOT!), runs an EXCELLENT ship; and Emma C., our STELLAR waitress for the evening, created a delectably dizzying experience for us! This is our home now; and the next time we're visiting Jax Beach, we'll find ourselves there. You should too!

Latte and Bread Pudding
Lea P.

We had a great experience dining here! The place is beautiful inside. I think they also have tables outside. Our server was fantastic! I forgot his name but he reminds me of Aquaman lol, He gave us recommendations and even offered if we wanted another bread while waiting for our meal. My husband got the Slow Braised Boneless Beef Shortribs. They were tender and flavorful! I also liked the Brussels sprouts, whipped potatoes and onions rings that came with it. As for me, I ordered the Cantonese Style Whole Local Snapper. Super crispy, flaky and the mango sauce has the perfect blend of sweet and sour. Delicious! The only downside was I couldn't see the bones as the lighting in the dining area was dark, I suggest to order this during lunch or dinner outside. For dessert, we got the bread pudding and latte to end the night. So good! I would definitely recommend Aqua Grill to my friends when planning our group dinners!

One of our favorite places to frequent weekly. Always excellent food and wonderful service. We love to sit in the patio or at the bar. The bang bang cod is wonderful. We had a visitor the other night begging for treats.

However, it was a busy Friday night and we were not in a rush. Everyone loved their drink choices, and we enjoyed the fresh bread brought to the table with the salted butter. Getting our order in did take longer than expected, but I think the vibe of the restaurant is to enjoy yourself and your company. All of us got an appetizer and they split the escargot for my husband and I; I thought that was a really nice touch. The banana bread martini was incredible; dessert in a glass. I got the beef tenderloin. My favorite part was the potatoes; they were so unique and delicious. The beef was good as well. My husband enjoyed the duck breast.

Nice touches like homemade jam & honeycomb. Our entrees were the filet and two of the fish specials. Fresh! The potatoes for two of the plates were done in their own unique way. We let Paulo chose our wines and he did a great match for each entree

It also has the neighborhood vibe. Mostly seems like a bunch of regulars who are also super welcoming to new friends. The service is always fantastic. They have a few mixed drink options and a pretty broad beer and wine selection, all very decently priced (even some non-alcoholic beer!). They don't have a food menu, but do have some good snacks available for purchase. We spent many of the recent Mondays here for name that tune, and they have so many more fun events that I will need to make time to attend. Don't skip this place!

I can't say enough good things about Breezy Coffee Shop Wine Bar -- it's so much more than a coffee…read moreshop. Last week of April 2026, my wife Judy and I were in Jacksonville/Atlantic Beach for a conference. While I was in session, she returned to our rental condo and got locked out due to a malfunctioning electronic door lock. She couldn't reach me (ringer off), so she walked down the street to Breezy. Owner Nancy Breezy immediately welcomed her with open arms. She lent Judy her personal phone so she could contact the condo owners to get the door fixed. Once that was handled, Nancy introduced Judy to the regulars, making her feel completely at home. Judy ordered a delicious latte and some gluten-free baked goods -- both were outstanding. On a deeper note, Judy has been through an incredibly tough couple of years with painful losses that had shaken her faith in human kindness. Nancy single-handedly restored that faith. Breezy feels like a quaint, neighborly oasis of love, fueled by Nancy's genuine goodness. Everything served here seems infused with what we now call "Vitamin L" -- pure love and warmth. Nancy didn't just help with a locked door -- she rescued my wife's spirit that day. If you're in Jacksonville Beach, make time for Breezy. You'll leave with great coffee, amazing treats, and an even bigger smile. Thank you, Nancy -- you are a gem!

Our server was super nice and attentive. I got a dirty martini and my husband got a beer. My dirty martini was made well and had blue cheese stuffed olives. We also ordered an appetizer, they're blue cheese chips, without chives. They came out super quick, I think maybe 2 minutes. For the price of their blue cheese chips, which is very reasonable, you get a TON, covered and smothered in blue cheese sauce and a balsamic drizzle. The chips were housemade saratoga chips and were crispy and delicious. For dinner I opted to order a Greek side salad and a loaded baked potato. The Greek salad was good, but I wasn't a huge fan of the red peppers in the salad. I'm not a huge red pepper fan or peppers in general. The baked potato was stuffed and delicious, full of bacon, sour cream, butter, and cheese. It was delicious and huge. ($8 for a baked potato is a bit high IMO). My husband got the plain jane, which he really liked and my kiddo got the kid's penne pasta with marinara and a club soda. He finished his meal and really liked it. We'll be back.
