We had a fantastic dinner at Hammock Grill! Connor was an excellent server, friendly, attentive, and made the whole experience even better. The food was outstanding from start to finish. The corn fritters with the raspberry glaze are an absolute must-order. The sweet glaze pairs perfectly with the crispy fritters, and I could easily eat them again and again. We also shared the gator tail appetizer, which was cooked perfectly and made a great starter. I ordered the seafood platter with flounder bites, clam strips, and shrimp. Everything was fresh, generously portioned, and cooked just right. My husband ordered the catfish and asked if they could prepare it blackened instead of fried. They were happy to accommodate, and it was an excellent choice, it was incredibly flavorful. The collard greens were another surprise favorite with their delicious, slightly sweet flavor. The atmosphere was lively and fun, and we loved that there was a live band playing outside in the back. It made for a great evening. The only small suggestion would be to do a little more mosquito control in the outdoor area. It is July in Florida, so the mosquitoes were pretty intense, but that's certainly not enough to keep us from coming back. We'll definitely be back the next time we're in the area. If you're looking for a great local spot with delicious seafood, friendly service, and a fun atmosphere, Hammock Grill is absolutely worth the visit! read more

We've been vacationing here for 15 years and have always enjoyed coming to JT's. The restaurant has been cleaned up and looks very nice. The fried panko shrimp was absolutely delicious and a highlight of our meal. Our server, Mollie, was pleasant and attentive throughout the meal. We will return next year, and stick with the seafood dishes, which seem to be where the restaurant really shines! read more

This is a great local place for food and drink! Madeline is the best server I've ever had! Ashley is a great bartender. Thank you read more

Wow!! What a great experience! We went there for lunch. Sat outside and were greeted by Jamie! We ordered a half salad each and the topped it with shrimp. These were HALF salads?? Lots of greens and veggies! MY shrimp were fried and HUGE. Jamie was so attentive and knew the menu! Sitting outside was a relaxing experience too. We are planning to make this our weekly stop and work through the varied, delicious menu. read more

I had a Chef salad; certainly not worth the $20 it was priced at, especially because that price did not include any protein, ie meats. I did enjoy the fries that accompanied someone else's lunch! read more

Place was packed, Service was great and to food was even better. Halibut, grits and Brussels sprouts were all cooked to perfection. Amazingly good food. read more

Outstanding food and service. Was well taken care of and food was hot and fresh. Very nice atmosphere and home town feel. Staff Very professional and tasty you like you family read more

I really wanted to like this spot. Food was alright but service left a terrible taste in my mouth. Stopped in for a quick app and drinks. Met immediately by a super nice guy who then passed us off to the "good bartender" which was the start of the end of the positive experience. Bar had about 8 patrons and when I asked about using a TV for a game she made a scene about how her and "technology don't get along!" If you work at a bar and are the "good bartender" why do you not know or learn how your bar works so you can properly do your job?" She did not offer to find out or help by getting someone who did know...just said "No. We are busy!" The same gal then was complaining to another member of the staff about the computer system. Keep in mind everyone at the bar had a drink in front of them and no tickets at the service bar while she is acting all stressed. Huge red flag for ownership/management if the "good bartender" can't put in orders through the POS system or help bar customers enjoy a game and buy more drinks...who knows what else is going wrong while she works!?! Just poor customer service and the old folks around the bar kept commenting on how hard she was working...lmao! Here's a novel idea, why not laminate instructions for bartenders to reference on helping customers with TV's at a bar. Problem solved. Just my $0.02 as a service industry professional. Best of luck trying to teach her anything...might be better to caught your losses...smh! read more

New Years Eve we decided on one of our local favorites Hammock Grill by JT's. Arrived early and Glenn was our waiter. He got us started on Mahi bites as an appetizer. Very well cooked and the breading paired great with the dipping sauce. I ordered the New York strip steak with mashed potatoes and green beans. I prefer a medium grilled steak and this thing was perfectly cooked. So juicy and delicious. My wife chose the fried green tomato BLT and fries. She loved the sandwich and fries were seasoned and cooked perfectly. Glenn checked with us for drinks several times so we had a great NYE dinner and was glad to shop local. read more

The ambience was super chill and fun. There's tele everywhere so you can watch all kinds of sports. I highly highly recommend this place. read more

Went back for more fun! Ashley & Kyle behind the bar! We shared a house salad and buttermilk chicken with mashed potatoes & collards with a side of gravy! Spot on! Soo good. Sadly our last night in the area. What a send off! Thanks for being such a great spot to stop! See ya next time! Have a good season. read more

Had an amazing dinner at the grill while watching the World Cup with family. The food is on par with NYC's best. The level of service is unparalleled. Madeline was attentive, friendly and happy to see us. Ashley's drinks were ridiculously good, Pina Colada's made from scratch. If you find yourself in Hammock, Palm Coast or Northern Florida it's a must visit just remember they're closed on Tuesday's. read more

Very lovely service! Greeted and shown to our corner table by the hostess and had another hello fairly quickly by our server. Tried the ribeye and catfish - it came out perfect! They had a tent set up in the back with entertainment for the holiday weekend Tip: happy hour on Saturday too. read more

We have been to the hammock Grill probably five or six times and never once had a problem. The food is amazing. Everything is really good. One of our friends said that it was the best shrimp and grits they've ever had. The service is great everybody smiles. It's a cool vibe sitting right there on A1A and just really a nice place to hang out inside and outside! read more

Absolutely fabulous. Lunch was superb. Turkey club. Absolutely delicious. Comfortable, relaxing atmosphere. Friendly staff Wonderful afternoon read more

There were good things but not the food. I had the worst Jambalaya I ever had. I have had it in New Orleans so I know what I'm talking about. Same for the fried Gator tail. My Wife had Fish & Chips which she couldn't eat because the oil it was fried in was dark and nasty tasting, like the Gator Tail. Probably the same frying oil from a month ago. read more

Disappointing. An eight dollar martini becomes an eleven dollar martini; minus one (half back for a good drink). Catfish fingers appetizer fairly good; had to ask for extra lemon and extra sauce. Catch of the day (flounder) covered in spicy mix, brussels sprouts way too spicy. Catfish platter pretty good; had to ask for extra lemon. Fairly good service. Quite informal atmosphere. Plenty of parking. Spice should complement the dish, not overwhelm it. Collard greens were overcooked and drowned in liquid. Not for me. read more

Tonight we had a family reunion dinner here. It was comfortable sitting outside and the staff kindly shoved two tables together to accommodate our group. I heard glowing reports from everyone about their entrees. The fresh fish and chips of the evening was flounder. Every bite was devoured. I chose the panko shrimp and found them lightly fried perfectly! I absolutely loved the balsamic glazed Brussels sprouts. Best I've ever eaten! I highly recommend this restaurant! read more

The atmosphere is nice and it's a good spot if you're just going for drinks. However, the food portions are quite small for the price, so it didn't feel like a great value for a full meal. If you're looking to dine, you may leave still hungry, but it works well as a place to grab a drink and relax. read more

Great band (Saltones) and wonderful outdoor seating. We had the crab dip, fish, shrimp and steak sandwich. All were delicious and the service by Conner was amazing. read more

The new and improved JT's is outstanding. If you want a pleasant dining experience this is the place for you! read more

4.6 Enjoyed the experience for lunch. Menu appears a bit more sophisticated than the "old" JTs. Waitstaff was friendly, water stayed full, air was cold. Plenty of parking in back- don't fight for the front spots! read more

what a great turnaround from the old place! our food was excellent. excellent service by young man Peter. we had stopped going before the renovation as the food was not great and the atmosphere was looking uncared for. our visit was great. clams appetizer was great, hamburger and petal fries and seafood chowder were all very good! We will go back. read more

This is a great little spot! The food was inventive and top-notch. We ended up with a trial today. The atmosphere is warm, family friendly, but yet awesome beach vibe. Great service! read more

When we drove up, we realized we had eaten here before and the food was mediocre at best. We paused, not sure we wanted to go in. A couple leaving raved about how good their meal was so we decided to give it one more try. We were greeted by Glen, a friendly young man, who set the tone for our lunch. The interior has been completely remodeled. Kathy was our historian and tour guide - I mean, server. She has been working here for 10 years, has been through three iterations of the business, and loves what the new (original!) owners have done. We both had mahi sandwiches with sidewinder fries. To top it off we shared a bread pudding with ice cream - it was heavenly with raspberries and blueberries and a lemon icing. We enjoyed our lunch and will definitely come back. We want to come when they have live music - the outdoor dining / live music area looks so inviting. read more

Lots on the menu. Friendly and efficient staff. Food was very good - plenty for dinner and to take home.

Food was great service was too. A hidden gem in Palm Coast! Get the cornflake crusted chicken sandwich with the hot honey and goat cheese. Black Beans and Rice and Brussel sprouts were also a treat! read more

This place was once very good. It's has changed ownership and gone through a remodel. Remodel is nice and I'm sure ownership is nice but food was not very good. I sent mine back and didn't reorder anything. Ambiance is nice. read more

Wow Transformation of a good restaurant that went downhill fast....old owner has reclaimed this hot spot and the food and service was back to excellent! Remodeled...new staff...new menu. Cobb salad great but the homemade dressing was too oily... Steamed shrimp was so good we had to order another plate! Cocktails fantastic We pray you get theNFL package back! read more

Awesome dinner for two! Did not realize how nice it was. Sat at the bar, daily special was crabs and steak, huge, had to share! Even take home! Vince Vaughn look-a-like in the house? Be sure to rag on him, he gets it all the time. Highly recommended, worth your time. read more

Hands down the BEST burger I've ever had. The service was amazing. I called in and spoke to Kyle who informed me the item I wanted was a weekly special that was going on the week before. He then asked the chef and said it could still be made. I've told anyone who will listen about this restaurant and can't wait to return. read more

I really liked the old JT's before it got ran into the ground and was really happy to hear about the renovations this year and the new opening. They have really spruced the place up. Everything looks fantastic, the menu while smaller is much much nicer and the Food is Friggin Fabulous! I know it is all about the seafoody stuffs this close to the ocean, but the Smashburger is unbelievable! Best Cheeseburger I have ate in my adult life and I mean that with zero hyperbole it really is that good... read more

One of the best restaurants for a juicy smash burger, and the best fries ever. I was delighted to see fried green tomatoes on the menu, and they did not disappoint! We keep thinking we will try something different on the menu, but burgers are an occasional treat for us and we find ourselves ordering them almost every time we go there. read more

We got a table right away which was nice. We took a table outside because they had live music. One problem with that was the music was a little loud to be comfortable. The second problem was flies, there were fans blowing to try to keep them at bay but our table wasn't getting any reprieve. Other than that the food was good not extraordinary. Our waitress was pretty busy so drink service was a little slow but all in all would come again, just maybe sit inside or under the porch section if you choose to be seated outside. read more

We had a great meal! Friendly and inviting environment with live music and seating outdoors towards the back. The burger and beers were delicious and the service was fantastic. Try it! We will make this a regular spot , so glad we stumbled on this restaurant. read more

I wanted to like this local place that's been around a long time (just changed owners tho) but unfortunately I did not. The salmon was ok, well cooked and well seasoned. The Alfredo it was served over was not very good unfortunately. Noodles overcooked and served luke warm. The deviled eggs tasted like they were sitting around for a while before they came out, the bacon on top was clearly from a packet of bacon bits not homemade. They were also pretty bland, needed black better, salt, some mustard or something. One person ordered steak, it was very undercooked. Medium shouldn't be bloody in the middle. Collard greens very vinegary - some at the table liked them some didn't. Again needed some Salt. Mashed potatoes and Brussels were probably the best thing on the table but the entrees were disappointing to us. Used to really like this place when it was JT's and I wanted to continue supporting it but unfortunately it's off my list. The space is nice and sometimes they have live music which is great but it's not worth it for me to not enjoy my dinner. read more
