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.

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.

Another truly outstanding experience at Duck's Bar and Grill…read more From one business owner to another, I have a deep appreciation for what you're doing here. Everything--from the atmosphere to the execution--is top tier. But what really sets you apart is your attention to detail and genuine care for your customers. Our waitress tonight, Kaila, was absolutely phenomenal. She picked up on something most people would overlook--I don't use straws--and brought my drink without one, without me even having to ask. That may seem small to some, but to me, that level of awareness and intentional service speaks volumes. It's those little things that create unforgettable experiences and separate good businesses from truly great ones. Kaila absolutely crushed it tonight, and it's clear your team is operating at a very high level. Keep doing what you're doing--you've built something special.

I could taste no blackening seasoning and the portion of meat in the pasta was incredible light. A colleague had the shrimp and grits and he said they were really good. My third colleague had the weekly special - pesto ziti. He said the meatballs were good, but the rest of the dish lacked flavor. The inside of the restaurant is divided into two with a large bar / lounge area that looked inviting. The dining side was comfortable, but dated. I would absolutely give them another try next time I'm in Jacksonville.

After shopping we decided to try out Texas Roadhouse. We eat at the one in California all the time…read more Well, this one is just as busy as Cali. Even thought they were busy we were seated right away. Well, almost. The table had to be cleaned but it gave me time to wash my hands after all the shopping. I ordered a Jamaican Cowboy Margarita. It was very good! Daughter loved her half and half ice tea. We tried the Fried pickle app. It was okay but not my favorite. We didn't have but a few. Daughter had an 8 oz steak, salad and broccoli and enjoyed her meal. I had my regular chicken fried chicken with a garden salad and mash potato with white gravy. Excellent! For $14.49 I have enough food for lunch tomorrow. Service by Melissa was very good. The only thing we started to complain about was that the dishes are not taken away even though we set them at the end of the table. But a few minutes later a bus boy came by and took them. Not sure why the waitress didn't take them but it would have been nice. Just can't stand dirty dishes on the table. Kudos TX Roadhouse Nov 22, 2025

Located in a relatively convenient spot from anywhere in the Jacksonville area, the restaurant has lots of room for customers, and so I've often found a table even in some of the traditionally busier times of day. The food and the service are always reliably great. Omelets, pancakes, French toast, and even hash browns (which, in most other diners, along with their fellow traveler in undesirability, grits, are best avoided), are far better than most other diners. A lot of thought, care, and, presumably, serious on-the-job training must go into the food. The efficiency and dependably rigorous quality are not surprising in a military town. If you're visiting from elsewhere, you will be humbled by the atmosphere, at certain times, when the young service members are having meaningful, hushed meals with their beloveds. Thinking of the hard work, brutal training, and potential life-threatening danger that such absurdly young looking people are enduring will make your worries about mice in the garage, smudged eyeglasses, and forgetting your travel pillow feel awfully insignificant and trivial. Unless you're a fleshly flaneur like me, in which case, a travel pillow and a heating blanket, are still pretty nice. Service is fast and just the right amount of attentive and friendly. On my most recent visit, Elaina was particular kind and efficient.

This is our first time back at the Kettle since returning to OC last September and it is just as I…read moreremember: tasty, down home cooking and friendly folks. I asked our very helpful and sweet server Jersey if she had only 2 choices with one being chicken fried chicken or the daily special Taco Salad, which would she go with and she said the taco salad. So, that's what I ordered. It was very tasty, loaded with 2 types of cheese a side of Jalapeño (which I gave to hubby) alot of fresh tomatoes and lettuce, a side of salsa and sour cream served in a somewhat crispy tortilla shell. And the shell is the only reason for a 4 star vs 5, the shell wasn't as light and crispy as I like it. It tasted as if they fried it several hours ago and honestly, I get why they did it that way as it saves time but the shell just left me disappointed. Hubby ordered a patty melt with fries. We came into town to scope out the Jacksonville Landing for future bass fishing mornings and when I told him we were stopping in here for lunch he already knew he was having the melt. I mean, he thought about it for 90 minutes lol. I've had their melts before and it is yummy. I think though the fries were the star on his plate. They were crispy on the outside and pillowy on the inside and topped with something akin to Old Bay Seasoning. And they were HOT! Y'all, i mean, they're only fries but rhey were PERFECT! I am seriously alreasy looking forward to our 1st fishing adventure just so we can have lunch at the Kettle once we've caught all the bass. Jersey was quite attentive, but not hovering and warm friendly like only you'll find in the south. Oh, bestie told me to get the chocolate torte because she said, literally, "it's life altering." However, I forgot to so, just another thing for me to enjoy after our initial fishing trip. In some ways, you can go home again.

I asked for no cilantro and no onions on my steak taco and the bar tender put my order in. I didn't see anything on the receipt saying no onion or cilantro so I asked her again if she put in no onion or cilantro and she confirmed and said that the cooks will know. I got my order and went to work. Tried to eat in my car before work and lo and behold there was cilantro and onion. If you have any food preferences or dietary restrictions just make sure to double check your food after you get it. I'm sure it was a simple mistake but it was worrisome because I had double checked with the bar tender prior to it being made.

The morning we went was pretty busy. It took a while to get seats at the bar. Also took quite some time to just get waters and a coffee. Another wait to order our food.

It has a promising environment with plenty of seating and menu items to choose from. Our meals were ok. Nothing to rave about. We probably won't return, but who knows. Worth a try.
