We've been here several times and I thought I had reviewed already. We have enjoyed every dining experience here so far. Today was no different. We enjoy coming on Tuesdays for the pizza deal. Today we ordered the shotgun shrimp appetizer, a side salad, and the 33 Deluxe small pizza. We also decided to try a strawberry and a blackberry lemonade. After a short wait our shrimp and salad were delivered. Both were good. Our lemonades were delicious! Of course the pizza was delivered after we finished our appetizers. The pizza was great. Our server, EmilyB, was great. Always positive and smiling. We also noticed Japanese baseball was on. Didn't expect that honestly. This restaurant always has an active and vibrant atmosphere. There's seating for all types and television screens everywhere. During football season, this place is packed! The reviews are all over the place. We have always had a good experience here. If you're unsure about trying Bubba's 33, I recommend giving it a try. They have a variety that fits almost all appetites. read more

Stopped by for dinner and to watch some football on a Sunday afternoon. Trinity was our server and did a fantastic job. She was friendly, efficient, and truly looked like she enjoyed interacting with her customers. The chips and queso were very good!! I ordered chicken wings and they were slightly overcooked and a little dry. My colleague said his wings were very good. It is a typical family style / sports bar type restaurant. There were a LOT of TVs and management was very accommodating when ensuring the football games were on viewable TVs. I will definitely return to this or any other Bubba's 33 in the future. read more

Food was great and our server Emily was phenomenal! Everything came out quickly and was exactly what we ordered.

We went Saturday in mid afternoon but the wait was still really long. Anyone who follows me knows I often mention if the sound level or music is really loud as I am very sensitive to that and can't tolerate loud places. Because of this I tend to monitor decibel levels and my watch has an alarm whenever sound is in a damaging range. The alarm kept going off while we were outside waiting and I had to walk away and wait in the car because it was too loud by the doors. The woman working the check-in outside was horse from yelling. The sound was peaking over 190 decibels and averaging about 121. Keep in mind sound over 85 decibels can damage your hearing, and working in those levels can permanently damage your hearing within a few hours. Once we were seated (and I had put in ear plugs which is rare) it was still peaking around 90 decibels and sustained around 82. I don't know about NC but in some states this would be illegal and get you fines from OSHA. My wife complained about the volume as did the table across from us but they never turned it down. Everyone had to scream at each other, not just yell to be heard. My wife got the strawberry lemonade which had real bits of strawberry in it and she thought it was a good mix. Ok, on to the food. It was ok, but nothing great. we decided to start with burgers and it was pretty much the same thing as we get a Jaggers (which is a sister chain), only about 30% more expensive. Don't get me wrong, we like Jaggers and go there a lot. But I'm not willing to pay significantly more just because this place has more decorations. The main dining room is large, and dark which I like. Where we were sitting we could not see the TV's but it seemed there were a lot in the main area, we were in a side area. The tables are fixed to the wall and the seating was uncomfortably narrow for us, we fit but not well. The table across from us had 4-5 more inches on either side than ours. The waitress never came back to fill our drinks but did bring us refills as we were paying after we finished eating. You pay on those little pay devices at each table. Maybe we should have tried something else other than burgers, but we felt the value wasn't there compared to Texas Roadhouse or Jaggers (the companies other chains in town). Our bill would have been $40 less at Jaggers and we would have been more comfortable there too. read more

Food was great , personal great , prices were moderate. Parking was fair, handicap parking and entrance was okay.

Tried Bubba's 33 for the first time today and was very impressed! Our server, Kaleb, was attentive, knowledgeable and gave us great menu recommendations. He made sure we had everything we needed and was very efficient. We didn't get a picture of the shrimp appetizer but that's a MUST! Their cocktail prices were sooo reasonable. My boyfriend got a Cadillac margarita with an extra shot for $12! It was delicious as well. The steak was AHmazing! Juicy, well seasoned and cooked perfectly. Definitely coming back for Sunday football! The vibes are good! read more

Great food and delicious drink! The best burger ever cooked to perfection along with delicious crispy fries!

Service was great. Chicken / bacon Mac was excellent. I didn't know it was a chain at first but I would still go again.

They are a fairly new restaurant but you can see the filth piling up. Tonight I asked for a female manager to show her the bathroom degrade. The filth was over several weeks and getting gross. The female manager stayed silent as I showed my concerns. Then I stated if the kitchen looks any thing close as the bathrooms they should be closed, she cursed at me and walked away. So then I started to take pictures of the kitchen which didn't go well. We were asked to leave which we did, pictures in hand. The female manager could have handled this so much better. read more

Atmosphere is fun and upbeat, saw many families and friends eating together, lots of TV's and music playing all around you, our waitress was awesome, just as everyone that we talked with that worked there. Food... the onion rings were some of the best we've ever had, mozzarella sticks and sauce were average at best, my burger was juicy but a little small as the delicious bun was bigger than the burger, my wife had the fish and chips and it was light and flakey. Overall, the prices were reasonable for restaurants today but I think the service makes it a place I would return to. read more

I love coming to this place it's got great food and great drinks, during the snow storm I watched 6 police officers walk in after working all day in the storm just for the server turn the away , saying there not taking any more customers I offered them my family's spot in line and the server wouldn't allow it. I told her make sure not to call them when you need help truly disrespectful how police are treated when there your life line in a time of need! Do better bubbas! read more

My husband and I had our first experience at Bubba's last night and can I tell you, it was awesome. We needed to wait for the rest our party to join us, so we sat at the bar and had a beer, the bar tenders were great, good vibe. Then we needed to wait a little for a table, the hostess taking names jumped right in to make sure we didn't need to wait too long, having a baby in tow. We sat outside, since our NC weather was cooperating and it was a beautiful evening. Mind you the place was packed and our server Alanna killed it. She did an amazing job, the manager even stopped by to see how things were going. The food was great and the service all around was perfect. Keep it up! Thanks Nina Jacksonville, NC location read more

Worst place in Jacksonville. Will likely close in 33 weeks. First, the wrong beer came out, and it was luke cold. Second ordered two apps, fried pickles came out clearly cold and old. Third. signature dishes not available at 2:30 in the afternoon. Kids nuggets and fries came out 40 minutes after ordering and still waiting on a shrimp po'boy, crispy chicken salad and fish in chips. I will never return and look forward to the closing of this abomination! The service was nonexistent, the food a gamble, and the vibe pure frustration. I'll never darken their door again and can only hope their impending closure spares future diners this culinary catastrophe. Avoid at all costs--Jacksonville deserves better. The wait staff was super nice though! read more

Good place to go for sports - tvs and atmosphere-food was great burger and a steak was only $22.00 for a ribeye

We've been to this restaurant a few times & we've never really had a bad experience. The staff is always friendly and we always have a great waiter. Tonight our waiter was Kota super friendly & great service as always. However, I'm writing my review because the one thing I don't like about the food is it's always a tad salty. As I've mentioned we've been a few times & that is the only thing I don't like hopefully they can dial back on the salt. read more

Service is good atmosphere is good. Food is good. The only thing I can complain about is a creamy chipotle pasta has too much salt, but overall good experience and service. read more

If you have to go out with someone you hate this is the place, it's so loud you can't hear anything. Literally a screaming baby next to us and it came through like the softest whisper. They have a ton of staff on the floor which seems great in theory but doesn't seem to be the case in the kitchen based on how long our order took. I had the po boy and the sauce had zero spice to it and was way too sweet. Most of our order was pretty mid flavor wise, with only two out of the six of us actually enjoying their meal. read more

The food was overly salted and processed. The loud music made it hard to hear the waitress and have a conversation. At least the music choice was good. Our waitress was nice. Lots of different football games on the TVs. If I could give it 2 1/2 stars that's what it would get. read more

I have high hopes for this establishment, but it seems that when it gets busy, requests to change a TV to a specific game are left up to whoever happens to have the tablet. I've spent quite a bit of time here and know several of the bartenders--who, to be clear, do an excellent job. That's the main reason my friends and I continue to visit. If there's a policy against taking requests to change the game, that's completely understandable, but it should be clearly communicated to customers. However, I know that's not currently the case, as I've seen requests for specific games granted in previous weeks. Literally heard a manager talk to a employee about the topic and nothing came from it Definitely don't go here if your trying to watch a specific game with out staring across the way and potentially having to lock eyes with another patron probably doing the same thing read more

Service deserves 10 stars!!! Waitress was fast, friendly and just made us smile with her positive energy. Food needs some work but it was good. (Better than Outback) We will be coming back to Bubba's 33! read more

Everything was great! The bartenders ( all of them) were awesome!! The drinks were perfect, food was delicious and the staff was so nice and welcoming. Can't wait to go back! read more

I have tried bubbas 3 times , the first time I got up to use the restroom only to come back to see all my food and beverage being thrown away as they cleared my entire table and said opps I thought you were done ...well I was not not second time we bought a gift card and we were told you get a free pizza with a 50 dollar gift card, well apparently that was not true either you need to buy a meal too. This place has issues service was slow and some people should not be in management ever. It's sad because I thought this was gong to be a good spot I was so wrong read more

Waitresses should be more concerned when something isn't good. Though we spoke to a couple employees, our only response was "hopefully we will be better next time". Sandwiches were soggy. Have no idea how that could happen! read more

The sweet tea needed extra sugar The appetizer came out in good timing Had to wait another hour for our meals to come out The waitress Emily was fantastic continually checking on us making sure are drinks were full and apologized for the long wait a few times The chili tasted great a little on the sweet side but had a good taste. The Philly cheese stake was fire and bland the fries were not very tasty and were crispy. The lasagna was very greasy and could not eat more than a bite. The grilled tacos had some spice to them was not appetizing. We did not dare try dessert most meals are around $15. It was busy but we did not have a wait. It wasn't too loud and music was acceptable. I would not suggest or revisit this place read more

Sadly we have to update the review from excellent to terrible. We are frequent customers but today was our last visit! We walked in to blaring music. It was so loud that we could not carry on a conversation. We asked to be moved from speaker. We were told it was same volume across restaurant. We asked if volume could be reduced. Manager refused to adjust at all. We were miserable the entire meal. It was Tuesday at lunch. I can understand Friday or Saturday needing louder music. But lunch on Tuesday!! Ridiculous!! read more

We went on the second day they were open and the service was excellent. You could tell they really trained everyone well. The food was excellent and the portions were big. Would definitely go back! read more

Delicious food and excellent service! My husband and I have eaten there twice and neither of us were disappointed. Our grandson gave the kid's burger a 9 out of 10 only being beaten by my burgers! read more

The food, waitress and ambiance was great, my girlfriend and I really enjoyed dining there we will definitely be going back there again soon. read more

The burger was noticeably undercooked, the fries tasted bland and stale, and we waited nearly an hour for our food to arrive, which made the overall experience very disappointing. read more

Went in at around 3pm for a late lunch. I was seated in good order yet over the next 5-10minutes, at minimum 5 staff walked by me never acknowledging me or saying I will be with you in a second. Not a very welcoming place. After a seemingly lengthy wait for a server to show up, I landed up walking out. The manager caught up with me exiting the building offering a free lunch. I declined and went next door to another restaurant. read more

We waited 10 minutes while our waitress sat down at the table across from us and talked with her friends. She then yelled at some to change our table to a different wait staff so she could continue her visit. The place was empty except for a couple of tables. I can honestly see why it was empty. read more

Excellent food and service. Very attentive. I would highly recommend this restaurant. I can't wait to go back and try something else. I had the southern fried chicken breast with gravy (had the gravy on the side), a friend had the steak and cheese sub and another had the spicy chicken sandwich. They said both were very good. We were also awarded a sample of the onion rings. They were awesome. read more

Opening week so we expected it to be busy but service was still great! Food was good and a nice change/addition to what's already available here in town. Our new date night spot. It was nice that they had a family restroom available and another addition, my daughter has a brain injury, management saw us walk in and made sure to turn music down in our area to be considerate though we didn't expect that. read more

This place needs to be your next date night spot. The food is phenomenal, the service is so personable and friendly, The drinks are well made and the vibes are immaculate. 10/10 making this a permanent date night spot read more

Went at 11 for our lunch break with 5 adults. , we were one of the first people in. Table was super small, ordered appetizers Pickle chips and nachos fries. Pickles were more bread the pickle. Shrimp tacos were cold. Pizza was mildly warm. Burger was meh at best. 5 guys burger is better. Positive was that the nacho fries were good and our server was nice. She was clearly overwhelmed and under prepared. We had several people come ask us about how bad the fried pickles were.....music was super loud and it made it impossible to hear anyone else at the table. Will not be returning. read more
