We came on a Sunday, right when the band starts at 8pm, and the energy was perfect. Just a heads up: Sundays get busy, so arrive early if you can. We slid in during Happy Hour (5-7pm) and the salmon bites were the star of the show -- seasoned perfectly and so addictive. For dinner, we ordered the lamb chops, seafood mac and cheese, mashed potatoes, and stewed oxtails with rice and peas. The seafood mac? Honestly the best I've ever had -- creamy, cheesy, loaded with seafood. The mashed potatoes were unbelievably smooth and melted right in your mouth. The oxtails had amazing flavor, but I do wish they had cooked a little longer for that perfect fall-off-the-bone tenderness. Drink-wise, my lemon drop was delicious and balanced. My husband's Henny Sidecar was strong -- no complaints there. The drinks took a while to come out, but they made up for it with complimentary shots, which we definitely appreciated. The only downside is the 2-hour table limit paired with slower service. We would've stayed for more drinks and hookah, but the timing didn't really make sense. Still, the food was so good that we're already planning to come back just for the plates alone. Legacy Lounge has major potential -- great vibes, great food, and a beautiful place to support. We'll be back!

The vibe was there and the noise was loud but I was still able to talk. Lots of people chatting in groups and a dj! The drinks were delicious but also was awesome it was connected to grape and grain!

If you're looking for a spot that perfectly nails the "lounge vibe" without the chaotic energy of a…read moreclub, Trio Hookah Lounge is exactly where you need to be. It has officially become my go-to destination whenever I visit Jacksonville and want to get out of the house and actually enjoy my night. First off, the service here is top-tier. The staff is attentive, friendly, and they genuinely make you feel welcome from the moment you walk in. And the food? It's consistently delicious. I recently had the salmon, and it was cooked to perfection--flaky, flavorful, and better than what you'd find at most dedicated restaurants. It's rare to find a lounge where the kitchen keeps up with the quality of the atmosphere, but Trio pulls it off effortlessly. Now, let's talk about the main event. In my opinion, Trio offers the best hookah in the city. The pulls are smooth, the flavors are bold, and the setup is always clean. Whether you're a seasoned enthusiast or just looking for a relaxing smoke, you won't find a better experience elsewhere. The Vibe: It's a true kick-back atmosphere. It's sophisticated and lively, making it the perfect middle ground for those who want to socialize without the deafening noise of a nightclub. The Crowd: Be warned--this place is a local favorite for a reason! It gets rather packed on the weekends. Reservations: To ensure you aren't stuck waiting, I highly recommend reserving a table in advance if you're planning a weekend visit. I can't recommend Trio Hookah Lounge enough. Whether you're there for the vibes, the incredible salmon, or the smoothest hookah in town, you're guaranteed a great time.

Ambiance, food, drinks, service, the vibes, and immaculate service. Whether you're with a massive group or in an intimate setting, this place has the proper seating for your party or date. As a first timer, I was impressed with the space. Nightlife can be tricky and some spaces just don't have the proper size for your desired night out. There's a bar for mingling but if you're there for dinner , there's that too. If you want more room and tend to have more volume in the conversations you carry, the outdoor space is ideal (especially since my friends and I like to laugh and goof off). That being said , we found ourselves seated in the patio and we loved it. Very comfortable, especially as the weather was cool that evening. Food was surprisingly delicious. Knowing that the restaurant appeal was competing with the nightlife vibe I was getting, I didn't expect there to be quality Mediterranean food. However, I was pleased with the calamari, salmon bites, hummus and brussel sprouts. My friend got steak and enjoyed his food as well. Drinks were great! One stood out the most which was the Smoke Show. Absolute perfection. Kinda snuck up on me though so be careful! Dress code. For men. Don't bring a hat. Don't even hold it in your hand. They're pretty strict about it. No flip flops. Put the Crocs away. No jerseys. My husband had jeans and Tshirt on but I saw others a bit more dressy casual. For the ladies. I felt like I all the females dressed to impress. From dressy casual to club attire , loose and flowy dresses, cute top and jeans with heels, cute romper, etc. I loved the diversity here. Will definitely be back! This seems like a great place to be for a fun night out. Make a reservation as I heard they get pretty busy!

If…read moreservice on drinks and food and been faster I'd have given two more stars, but the place was very calm and we still waited a while to drink and eat. Had to assume there was a private party secluded somewhere eating up literally everyone's time. Drinks average $15 each, very short menu of food, appetizers, and desserts, but what they cook, they cook Well! Delicious! However, we arrived around 6pm without reservations on a night when literally every table had a Reserved sign on it, and 90% of the tables were empty and remained so while we were there for an hour. 1-2 bartenders, and a virtually empty main restaurant, and our first drinks after being seated took over 10 minutes. Shocking and disappointing. The food took about 20 minutes to come out but was worth the wait, very good food. They offer hookahs also but at a premium price, much more than Casbah and other competitors. They have private dining and private rooms with chandeliers and I saw one with a billiard table. Catering to elitist clientele with money to spend and all the time in the world, I guess. I would have loved to enjoy a no rush hookah on their very loved outdoor patio, but I also hate waiting for drinks outside when they're already high priced. If you do come for a drink, I highly recommend the Love Potion! Our server was polite and professional, she promptly greeted us and checked on us occasionally.
