BB's is always a great experience. Wonderful food, a quaint atmosphere and great staff. We've been here several times and would come more often except it is a bit of a drive for us. We often hit this place up when we have an event in the downtown area. One of the great things is that they are open pretty late. This works out great as we usually don't have reservations and pop in there later in the evening. It is still often pretty crowded. The food choices are often a bit different than other places in town. Each are delicious and special. They have an excellent wine list. And their dessert selection is one of the best in town. read more

Incredible! Divine deserts. Great service. We'll be back! We had such a great time. Food options were solid.

I stumbled upon this place before a Jags game and decided to give it a shot. We arrived with a party of 2 (no reservation) around 11:00 AM. We were sat immediately at a table. After that, we waited almost 15 minutes until we were acknowledged for waters and drinks. Our food came out quickly once we finally got to order. The salmon dip was good, up until my last bite which had what appears to be mold on the bell pepper. The service was so slow that it wasn't even worth it to say anything, as it was time to leave to make it to the football game. The salad was alright, but how can you even screw up a caesar salad? I more than likely will not be returning here. read more

Birthday dessert, I read on here this is the hometown spot for desserts and indeed it is. They have seasonal and regulars. I narrowed it down to three and will leave Florida knowing I missed out on the other two sigh. But the espresso mousse was sensational. No one uses that word anymore. It was though. I forgot to blow out my candle because I wanted a nice photo, hopefully that will reverse my luck this year since this past year has been stressful. But definitely recommend just coming for a dessert at least. There is bound to be something you like. Expensive yes, worth it, also yes. read more

Celebrating our anniversary this evening and could not ask for a better evening. Hailey was our server and knew the food and desserts all from memory. The ambiance matches the food or is it the other way around? Decor reminds me of fine dining when people would dress up and be served food that was value for money. BB's food is worth the money as well as the comfort of fine dining that is not pretentious. Pork chop was juicy and tender with an apricot chutney and pistachio encrusted. The snapper was cooked to a perfect crisp outside and yet fresh and moist inside. read more

I know I'm supposed to review just one dessert or make a suggestion but bro. Bbs has the best local sweets. The cabinet is so cute. From bread pudding which was never my fave but now an absolute craving for me after bbs to something more rich. I think of BBs and my mouth just waters I found it by accident and wish I'd found it sooner! read more

Dropped in on a Friday night at 8:15PM without reservations and the wonderful staff managed to fit in a table for 6 adults ... granted we only wanted dessert, so we didn't impact folks with reservations coming in after us! Haley was our server - she was gracious and helped lock-in separate checks for everyone! Love this gem for downtown JAX ... easy in/out ... would highly recommend! read more

This wasn't my first visit but it was our first brunch at BB's. Bradley K was our server and not only was he knowledgeable, he was very polite. I enjoyed his presence and our conversation. The atmosphere is always so charming and inviting. I took the kids out for an impromptu brunch date today. We were all pleased with what we ordered. In order, I liked the steak and eggs, French toast, pancakes and chicken and waffles. The steak and eggs was by far my favorite thing but my daughter only gave me a couple bites lol. My son really loved his French Toast with a side of bacon but he also really loved the cinnamon bun pancakes. I enjoyed both of these as well. Since it was our first time in for brunch, I ordered the pancakes along with our entrees so we could all try them. The person was great. Onto the chicken and waffles. I didn't expect to have chicken tenders so that threw me off at first. The presentation was nice but the taste missed the mark. The tenders were a little dry and under seasoned. I was also left looking for the spice. I've been to Nashville and enjoyed some great hot chicken there. So for the description to say Nashville Hot and deliver no spice whatsoever was disappointing. Not even a hint of spice. So if you don't like spicy or sweet and spicy, you'll like this. Overall, we had a great experience and will return anytime of day for a meal. read more

BB's. I would consider this a hidden gem because I would've never located it on my own lol. It is a small, intimate very classy looking restaurant. We came for a Saturday brunch with my mother and grandmother who are from the west coast. The shrimp lollipops were absolutely amazing. I regret not ordering 10 rounds lol. I'd go back just for those. We had a limited menu since it was Saturday so it wasn't the standard brunch menu, however, we did order the shrimp and grits as well as one of the sandwiches. The food was delicious, some of the best shrimp and grits my mother has had and the service was wonderful. I'd definitely like to go back for Sunday brunch. The only thing I was a little iffy on was how close the tables were seated together, not much elbow room and I'm a slim lady lol. read more

Great lunch spot! Today was my first time in but I've had the bread pudding before which is AMAZING! We got the bruschetta and sandwiches. The Ancho Turkey sandwich was delicious but the winner of the show was the dessert. We got the bread pudding and the Oreo mousse cake. For someone who usually gets sweet tea, I feel I need to share that they only serve a flavored unsweetened tea. Our server offered simple syrup with it and it was actually quite good. Service was just okay since we had to wait for refills multiple times but everyone was very friendly. It is a little pricy if you're getting an app and dessert but some of the portions are large enough to share. I took half of my sandwich home to save room for dessert. It's a small place tucked out of the way on Hendricks but the inside is very nice. There are a few tables outside with umbrellas. We sat inside and our only complaint was that it was quite chilly. Parking is limited so plan for that. read more

First of all the service was impeccable!! We had the best service and our waitress was amazing which made our experience very good. Now I gave them 4 stars because the food was a bit of a let down. Nothing memorable. I got the duck confetti appetizer and the steak and eggs. The duck tasted overdone and super greasy. Just not the pleasant experience I was looking forward to. My eggs were under seasoned and blur and the steak was ok at best. The desert however was my really good. Overall not bad, just not memorable. I really wanted to love it though read more

Food. Service. Drinks. Vibes. This place never disappoints as they always add a nice spin to their dishes. I met up with a friend for Brunch on a Sunday. It wasn't overly crowded and the service was great. We even spoke with one of the managers , who helped us with our meal selections. On the weekends, they serve the brunch menu, but you can also have the lunch menu if that's what your heart desires. Honestly, there were great options on both! We started off with the fried green tomatoes! Sooo good! Then we had the steak sandwich and fish and grits, accompanied by peach bellinis. Both were delicious and did not leave anything to be desired! We will be back! read more

It was a Friday night and my wife and I had a show at Florida Theater so we wanted to check out a new spot. We walked in and realized we'd be before but it had been a couple years. We had a reservation and they sat us at the very first table as soon as you walk in. That was a little disappointing it not a big deal. My wife ordered the ribeye with mashed potatoes and fried Mac n cheese. My wife never finishes her dinner so I thought I'd get something small so I could help her with hers. I ordered the salmon salad. The cheese bread with sweet butter they serve is excellent. Those didn't last long. The Salmon salad was very good and a large portion. I didn't really have any room to help with the ribeye. The Mac n cheese was deep fried balls. I tried a bite but I wasn't impressed. My wife really liked them. I did try 1 bite of the steak. I thought it was okay. It was a pretty thin cut which doesn't usually turn out well. My wife got a Gran Marnier orange flavored cake. I got the peanut butter cheese cake. My cake was much lighter than I expected a cheese cake to be. It was good but it could have used a little more flavor. I'm sure we'll be back again. read more

I almost gave four stars because we did have a bit of an extended wait time, but the service and food were so worth it. The brussel sprouts were some kind of soy savory deliciousness. the lamb was amazing on its own but the greens and starches were flavorful on another level. my husband had the halibut and said he would have licked the plate if we were at home. soooo good read more

I did take out. Service was ok. While there, I ordered an Aperol spritz which tasted like seltzer water. They were kind enough to take it off my tab. I also ordered the crab cakes and received only one when the order includes two. The system won't let me upload a pic. read more

First time to BB's. I can say for sure there will be a second time. Really polite and professional staff. We went for lunch on a Sunday. My husband ordered a Bloody Mary and it was one of the best he's had, he said. I enjoyed a lovely Chardonnay. There Version on a Chinese Chicken salad was good, not great. My husband ordered then flatbread pizza with sausage on it and delicious it was. Dinner next visit. Loved the place read more

First visit, and the place was packed on Thursday night. I was seated at a two-top, the last available table. Unfortunately, the air conditioning was blowing right over the table and it was unbearable. They were able to move me to the last available outside table and I happily agreed. I wasn't real hungry so I ordered a charcuterie board and it was delicious! Got a slice of coconut cake to-go. It was fresh with good flavor but overall I would give it a very average rating; certainly not worth the $12 price. Service from the waitstaff was very good. read more

What a treat. I'd always known of BB's but I hadn't ever tried it until recently. Man am I so glad I finally tried it!! I wish I took a picture of the bread! This was sooo good. It looked like muffins & was reminiscent of the Brazilian cheese bread you get at Brazilian steakhouses. The butter that comes with the bread is kind of sweet--compliments the bread SO well. Per my server's recommendation (too many good appetizers), I got the duck wonton napoleon to start. This might've been the best dish of the night. There are so many flavors going on here--very indulgent tasting. The wonton shell also adds some nice texture. For my entrée, I got the crispy crab cake sandwich which was also divine. That remoulade sauce and the pickled veggies (the slaw) are on point! I got the caesar salad as my side & it was also very tasty with what looked like house-made croutons. My friend's bistro steak sandwich was very tasty as well, however, the steak was kind of tough. We were expecting the couscous side to be sweet (the menu says it has dried fruit) but it was an undressed salad with tomatoes... the worst part of everything we ordered. Nonetheless, everything I ordered was on point so I have to give five stars. The service was also great & the ambiance is very nice. This may be my new favorite Jacksonville restaurant! I will most certainly be coming back here to try more dishes next time I am in town. read more

BB's has been on our list of places to dine for quite a while. It did not disappoint! We had reservations but decided to eat the bar instead of sitting at a table. The bartender and wait staff were so friendly and helpful. We tried the Duck Won Ton appetizer per the hostess's suggestion. It was so good! We ordered a light dinner to save room for dessert. My husband ordered the seasonal Chocolate Peppermint cake and I had the seasonal Red Velvet Cheesecake. Both were so delicious! We will be back to this cool hip restaurant and bar. Cheers! read more

Had dinner at BB's Monday night i sat at the bar and had great service! I have been here several times over the years but haven't been to JAX in a while so thought I would give it a go since i always was happy with them before. I had the Chop Chop salad sub Tuna, the tuna was cooked perfect only and the salad was very fresh and plentiful. Great atmosphere whether you are at the bar or a table. Mondays are half off wine glasses or bottles a nice treat! read more

Hubby surprised me with a nice midweek dinner out after work. He knew I had been wanting to check out BB's so that's where we met. We each started with a smokey old fashioned. These were very good and had a nice genuine smokey flavor. They also brought us a couple Gruyère popovers. I'm a big fan of bread and cheese in any form and these were excellent! We decided to try the stuffed mozzarella bruschetta as an appetizer. It was a great choice! The sourdough was perfectly crusty, fresh and flavorful tomatoes, tasty pine nuts, gooey mozzarella - oh so good! For dinner, we both ordered the bacon wrapped filet cooked medium. It came with grilled shrimp, potato gratin, grilled asparagus and a demi-glace. Beautiful presentation! The shrimp were delicious! I loved the potato gratin, so cheesy and creamy. Asparagus is one of my favorite vegetables and these were amazing! The steak was pretty good, seasoned and cooked well. We both thought the bacon was floppy and undercooked which I find to be a common issue with bacon wrapped steaks. It added good flavor but the texture was off. We ended the meal by sharing a slice of dulce de leche cheesecake. It was luscious! Creamy, tangy, sweet and delicious. Service was great! Our server was knowledgeable and attentive. Overall, great meal at BB's. I will definitely be back! read more

Came here since I had a gift card!! Per recommendations from many friends, I got the grilled salmon salad with goat cheese croutons (bread with goat cheese). I asked for the salmon to be cooked medium, and it was perfect! It was seasoned so well, and the salad with the couscous and the lemon vinaigrette and pumpkin seed pesto was so yummy. I also got a lot of cake LOL. The salted caramel mocha cake was potentially my favorite, but the grand marnier is soooo good especially if you like orange cake. I had also had the pineapple upside down cheesecake one before and it is delish. Overall a great choice and now I'm craving more salad!! read more

We enjoyed our brunch at BB's on a beautiful Saturday afternoon. Great service and great food. Short rib hash was delicious and other people with us ordered steak & eggs and crab cake Benedict. They both enjoyed their meals as well. Portion sizes were good. Desserts were good as well but not worth it in my opinion. Huge cake slices but flavor wise, nothing special. This is a lovely restaurant with a good amount of parking. read more

I've heard people talk about how good BB's was and I have to say they were right! Stopped in for lunch and managed to be seated before it got too crowded. I ordered the Wednesday special which was Shrimp & Grits. I'll be honest, I'm from up North and I didn't even know what grits were until I moved South. I'm still not a huge fan of them unless they're with some great shrimp and flavorful seasonings. This meal was delicious! I would've liked a little more "kick" taste wise, but they were still very good. My friend ordered the Mediterranean Chicken Salad. It looked huge with plenty of chicken. We ordered a piece of the Orange Grand Marnier cake to share. The cake was moist and had the perfect hint of orange. Loved it so much that I forgot to take a photo before we ate it all! read more

Finally we are able to eat here. We've tried two previous times to try this place but the wait was too long. I now understand why. We started with the BB's Old Fashion (Yum so good). On recommendation we decided to go with the Duck Wonton Napoleon, and the Shrimp balls ( reminds me of lollipops). Completely different flavors, but we were scraping off the plate with our forks, Also order the pizza. After eating the appetizers we couldn't finish the Jambalaya, pizza. Our tastebuds were jumping for joy. Wanted to try some of the delicious dessert but we had no more room so we left it for next time. The place is small, but inviting and cozy. read more

It's been 10 years from my first visit, and still, the place abstruds excellence from the time you step inside till you leave. This is a top service restaurant. Today we ordered from their brunch menu and the food was served beautifully and tasted even better. They serve food like it was an art form.It is the place you want to go especially on a special occasion as their desserts are exceptional and come out customized to your celebration. Service was of course on point from management who visited tables to the servers who were very visible. The place has a classic elegance inside and a nice patio outdoors to choose your seating from. They are one of our JAX best. read more
