Grilled Chicken Sandwich

Update : tried the lunch menu and wow !! Delish !! Got the grilled chicken sandwich and a side Caesar so flavorful chicken perfectly cooked juicy and on a fresh buttered bun w local greens. Will definitely be trying the wraps next time I'm in nothing but good things to say Family owned local and great quality

Avocado sourdough toast with lox, and two eggs - delicious
Dianne P.

This is an order at the counter place. I've had breakfast here several times and today was my first time for lunch. I had the fall salad which was beautifully presented. It had two scoops of chicken salad, mandarin, oranges, almonds, raspberry vinegar et and other tasty things. I also had an order of the Italian wedding soup. It was flavorful with the little meatballs and orzo. My dining companion had an Aji tuna wrap, which was delicious and a Caesar salad again beautifully presented we will be back.

Club sandwich with fall salad
Joel B.

Food is amazingly fresh and flavorful. Plenty of healthy options a well. Ordered a club sandwich with a side of fall salad. Also tried their lobster crab bisque which was equally awesome! Staff were so friendly and food arrived fast. Inside was clean and comfortable. Overall great place for lunch or breakfast.

The food is excellent,especially the breakfast sausage,but whatever you order on the menu is 100% delicious !! The owners,Vee and Eddie are awesome...especially Vee and they make you feel so welcome !! Its my go to place whenever im visiting my sister in Jacksonville ! Was just there recentlly and will be back in late August. Thank you for everything !! Bob Woodall

Rueben with Caesar Salad

Really enjoy having lunch here. The food is so good. I enjoyed a Roasted Turkey Sandwich with a side Caesar salad. Once again I was blown away with the quality and size of the side salad. So fresh and perfectly prepared. The Roasted Turkey Sandwich was absolutely delightful. Beautiful fresh thin sliced RoastedTurkey breast with fresh tomato and lettuce, Swiss cheese and garlic aioli which was a nice condiment that was perfect. All served on beautiful thick and light grilled white bread. It was a wonderful sandwich. The meal was delivered to me in minus two minutes, lol, it seemed that quick. They don't play around. The food is a nice value too. Want a nice and relaxing spot... you should give it a whirl.

This is a great little diner at end of strip of stores at corner of baymeadows & southside blvd, across from Publix. I was super happy with my visit, the food was delicious, I almost always order biscuits and gravy when i try a new place for breakfast, and the Deerwood bistro did not disappoint. I ordered the large biscuit & sausage gravy breakfast which comes with 2 biscuits covered with the gravy as topped with 3 eggs and with 2 sausage patty's, i also ordered a side of grits. The gravy was full of sausage and seasoned well served on homemade biscuits that were fluffy, my eggs were cooked perfectly, over easy with runny yolks and the grits were stone ground and also yummy. You order at the front counter and find a seat and are quickly served a fantastic meal, the ladies working there were very nice and attentive, they seemed happy to be there. The restaurant was so clean it shined! Seriously I know this is silly but even the salt and pepper shakers were clean and the table was shiny. I loved everything about this place and highly recommended it!

My aunt and uncle selected this as a place for us to have lunch today. I have to say it was a very good choice as the customer service that we received is outstanding. You can tell this is definitely a family owned restaurant by how they agreed entry their customers. Moreover the food was very good. The omelette was cooked just right, not overcooked and made to perfection. I love the marble right toast and my uncle enjoyed his pancakes as my aunt enjoyed her locks. Overall it was very good, the only thing that was not the greatest was the eclair. The inside was solidified then like which the acknowledged and was to to the baker and and quality a five hour and I will be back.

Simple but tasty, fresh and flavorful.

Breakfast at 1 pm - imagine that! Super fresh and cooked to perfection- hard to get soft scrambled eggs. Real grits, not just packaged and boiled. Premium bacon and they press their biscuits panini style so nice, toasty and buttered surfaces. I think they are family owned and it show in their pride of ownership. As in Clean tables, clean salt and pepper shakers- again- imagine that. So convenient at the corner of Baymeadows and Southside, near the Gate Station. Do yourself a favor and drop in!! Family owned and operated for 10 years and going strong.

I went to Whiskey Cake for a party which was in a nice size private room. Our server Christina was…read morefabulous! There were roughly 15 people at the party and she kept the food and drinks coming all night with a friendly smile. I started with the guava gimlet made with Wheatley Vodka, guava, pineapple, simple and lime. It was sweet and refreshing. We were served a few appetizers including creamy artichoke dip served with homemade chips which were tasty. My friend and I ordered the charcuterie board which hit the spot! You could top the meat cheeses and sauces on to either homemade crackers or French bread. I highly recommend the board if you are looking for something light.

Alright Jacksonville, Whiskey Cake did NOT disappoint!…read more First things first, if you're visiting on a weekend, MAKE A RESERVATION! This place gets busy! Luckily, we were waiting for someone in our party, so the wait wasn't too bad. Now the FOOD? Absolutely AMAZING! Everything from the chicken and waffles to the sandwiches, breakfast plates, and sweet treats was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The drinks were refreshing, service was excellent, and even the bathrooms were spotless! The restaurant itself has a really cool, rustic atmosphere. My only two minor complaints were the seating and noise. If your party is larger than 5-6 people, you may end up sharing a high-top table with another group, separated by a small divider. We also got seated toward the back near a group that was EXTREMELY loud. Listen, I'm all for having a good time, but WHEW, they were enjoying themselves enough for everybody! Outside of those two things, I really enjoyed the experience! Great food, attentive service, and a welcoming atmosphere. Those minor seating issues are the only reason I'm giving it a 4.5 instead of a perfect 5. We'll absolutely be back because brunch was fantastic, but now I need to see what that DINNER menu is talking about! Shoutout to our amazing server Stephanie as well, oh guys this place takes tap to pay !!

Okayyyy Stonewood, I SEE YOU!…read more Let me start by saying this restaurant easily made my TOP 3 dining experiences in Jacksonville this year! And honestly, it might be one of my favorites EVER here. We ordered a little bit of everything, and when I tell you there wasn't a single disappointment on that table?! We started with the crab dip and buffalo shrimp with blue cheese. Both were SO GOOD! The crab dip was creamy and flavorful, and those buffalo shrimp?! Definitely an appetizer I'd order again! For our entrées, we had the creamy chicken pasta and chicken served with mashed potatoes and greens. The pasta was absolutely delicious! Everything came together so well, and the chicken entrée was just as satisfying. You know the food is good when everybody at the table is enjoying their plate! And because we clearly weren't full enough, we ordered dessert! It was a warm fruit cobbler-style dessert topped with vanilla ice cream, and it was the perfect way to finish our meal. Now, let's not forget the DRINKS! Because those were hitting too! What really made this experience stand out was that the food, drinks, AND service were all amazing. The staff was great, and the entire experience was enjoyable from beginning to end. I love trying restaurants around Jacksonville, and it's not every day that a place impresses me across the board like this. THE VERDICT: ABSOLUTELY A YAY! Stonewood understood the assignment! Whether you're planning a date night, going out with friends, or just want a GOOD meal, I'd definitely recommend giving them a try. 10/10 experience for me, and I WILL be back!

**Great Experience & Excellent Service!**…read more As a Cooper's Hawk Wine Club member from Virginia, I always enjoy visiting different locations when I travel. This location is fairly new since my last visit to the Jacksonville area, as I usually visit the Southside Town Center location. Heidi welcomed me and got my tasting started. She was warm, friendly, and very cordial. She later handed me off to Isaac, and he absolutely made my visit. Once I shared that I was a Wine Club member who simply wanted to relax and enjoy my tasting, he understood the assignment! He was attentive without hovering, kept my pours coming, and gave me the space to just chill--that was exactly my vibe. Isaac's customer service was genuine, effortless, and memorable. I left feeling relaxed, appreciated, and simply...nice. He truly sealed my trip to the 904! I'll definitely be back the next time I'm in the Jacksonville area. Thank you, Heidi and especially Isaac, for making my visit such an enjoyable one!

Ms. Rachel was not the friendly Miss Rachel were used to from YouTube…read more This Ms. Rachel loves the word no. No no no Every suggestion Every request to substitute Every normal accommodation the Coppers Hawk would normally accommodate to was responses with a no. If we played a drinking game and every time we were told "no" we dranwe would have been drunk as a goose. Talked about the mishaps that the restaurant had with missing items in the orders due to the hurricane. Very insensitive and no table manner. Would not reccomend sitting at Ms. Rachel's table but I will always reccomend s Coppers Hawk in general. We did not ask for a manager because it was close to closing but I would recommend moving tables if the waiter is Ms. Rachel.

The Maple Bacon Deviled Eggs are a spectacular starter, and the Blackened Jumbo Shrimp & Smoked Gouda Grits were perfectly rich with an amazing Cajun gravy.

I booked the Moroccan tent for my son's 21st birthday. Never been to this place before, but the…read morereviews led me to believe it was a "hidden gem." Our reservation was for 7:30 on Friday night, obviously a popular time. 1) Time/service - In spite of the 7:30 reservation (which costs $25 extra, by the way), we stood in front of the restaurant for half an hour waiting to be seated. NO BENCHES outside. Finally a bus boy showed us to our tent and just left us there. It took another 15-20 minutes for a server to bring bottles of ROOM TEMPERATURE tap water for us. Once our actual waitress made one of her 3 appearances, we placed drink orders, app orders, and entree orders. The birthday boy ordered the "adult happy meal," a $50 deal with an entree and up to 5 cocktails. Our beverages arrived pretty quickly along with our apps. My alcoholic beverage took much longer, and my brother's sparkling water wasn't delivered until the meal was almost over!! When the birthday boy finished his first cocktail, he ordered another one. It NEVER CAME. I was hoping to order several drinks to have a nice "party" vibe, but the service was just too slow. We got one drink in the entire 2 hour 45 minute experience. 2) The Food - Was it worth the wait....ABSOLUTELY NOT. The cheese board was good. Everyone enjoyed that. The maple bacon and crab cake deviled eggs were also really tasty. The entrees, however, WERE NOT. I ordered the crab Rangoon stuffed shells - shells were the consistency of paper. I crunched into what seemed like an undercooked potato....NOPE! It was a fat slice of garlic...the entire dish was riddled with them! I was only able to eat a couple of bites. My daughter's beef Wellington literally made her gag. I tried my husband's French onion mushroom pot pie. I had high hopes for this dish. Unfortunately the puff pastry was completely overwhelmed by the over-salted center which had the basic flavor of French onion soup but the consistency of thick gravy. The exception was the hot honey chicken which was not bad. 3) Bottom line: We ended up just standing up to leave rather than waiting for the non-existent server to rematerialize. The place was over-packed. The only 2 single bathrooms were located between the kitchen and the bar which made the people who were CONSTANTLY waiting in line ALWAYS in the way of the bustling servers and bumping into other diners. The patio was covered with a cheap Astro-turf and the ground under it was very uneven. Sitting out on the patio might have been nice, but being in the tent meant "out of sight, out of mind" to the servers. This is a long review, and I don't write reviews often, but I chose this restaurant for my son's 21st birthday based solely upon ALL OF THE GLOWING REVIEWS. I want to make sure people know what they're getting into when they consider this place. Maybe they were just having a bad night, but it was a huge disappointment for us.
