I was pretty excited to visit Jerry's Grille as it's been on the REV to-visit list for quite a…read morewhile. In no way was I disappointed! Things that stood out to me upon entry included its large interior that's spread out with a nice variety of seating and sections. The full service bar was active with people who seemed to know each other pretty well. In addition, it was busy during the visit on a weekday that usually is a slower day for a restaurant. I did notice and liked the art on the wall and knew I'd find it a nice place to visit during CFB and the NFL season. With all that said, I also found the service here to be solid. Stephanie is as good as any veteran server I've experienced. Her knowledge of the popular items was sharp and everything we ordered was as good as she said it would be. I also liked that she would still visit our table regularly even during the rush hour time frame. Another area in which I was highly impressed was the value of what you order, at least in way of the sandwiches. I ordered a fish sandwich that would make a Micky-D's fish sandwich look like a minnow! It was large on a softer white bun. The fish (I cannot recall what kind) was very tender and everything really blended together with it (the tomatoes, lettuce, pickles), especially after I added the tartar sauce. My meal included coleslaw - a very well-prepped popular style version. I could've taken some of this meal home, but it was so good that I pushed my way through it! My Dearest chose the Rueben sandwich. A superb choice! Again, the sandwich is large, made of the normal rye bread, thousand island, sauerkraut, Swiss cheese, and sliced corned beef. She chose the fries with it, but I'll admit that those could have been a little fresher/hotter. Seemed they sat in the fryer bin for a little too long. But the sandwich itself was great! I ate half of it the next day and I do appreciate that Jerry's uses a high quality corned beef brand - very little fat on the meat. It was a great visit and I will add one more positive thing that will attract people to Jerry's Grille. That is, the value of what you get is just about the best I've seen from a restaurant in quite a while. Usually when I go out, dinners for two are over $40 for us, not including the tip. This dinner at Jerry's with our two (large) sandwiches, fries, coleslaw, and beverages, landed at $34, not including the tip - I was impressed and it helped me increase our tip to the server! I would only say that Jerry's Grille looks a little oldish inside and perhaps could use some renovation/updating of the interior. Though I like the art and the monitors, its classic look has aged to a point, in my own view, that calls for some new wall dressing and painting. But still, I would come here anytime to eat - very comfortable and enjoyable place to visit for dinner! Recommend - HIGH

My dish of grilled shrimp and fish with a side of Mac and cheese was very good. My friend got the nachos which appeared to be loaded with everything. Next time I will try that. They have a large bar. This is a very lively place with plenty of room to dance and or mingle. Also do not miss their brunch, which is only on the weekends. I would recommend the Monte Cristo Sandwich-3 pieces of French toast with Swiss and American cheese, turkey and house-brined ham; served with brunch potatoes or grits.

Hopefully, they're able to prepare better for Friday/weekend crowds in the future. I would only come back to try their soft serve margaritas.

That's a main reason why I chose to come for breakfast. Then when you get there, the prices aren't even in the handheld menu they give you. You have to scan the QR code and then you'll see the prices. They do an automatic 10% tip in your bill and I get why. The servers don't do too much and I'm sure people didn't even tip. They don't even offer me a to go box but they were sure quick to take our plates away. The food is good. I would get the cheapest thing on the menu though. The ambiance is semi quiet and super Riverside casual. My Mom went up to ask for a to go box. So I guess the 10% tip was for the water they gave and bringing our plates out. Do not go by the Google menu prices. Double-triple what you will see. That's why they get 3 stars.

Cute, Vibrant & Such a Unique Experience!…read more Gahwa Cafe was such a cute Turkish coffee spot! I had never experienced Turkish coffee like this before, so it was a whole new experience for me. The owner was so attentive and welcoming, and one of my favorite parts was getting to see him show us how they make the Turkish espresso in hot sand! I had never seen anything like it, and it made the experience feel so much more special. And let me tell you...the Turkish espresso was AMAZING! The flavor was rich, smooth, and honestly just perfect. Definitely my favorite part of the experience. We also tried the pistachio baklava, and it was tasty! The food was good overall. Since this was my first time trying Turkish food, some of the flavors were definitely new to my palate, but I enjoyed getting to try something different. The café itself is vibrant, colorful, and full of character, but when we went, it was just us, so it was also super quiet and peaceful. I really enjoyed the ambience. They even have a hookah area, which adds another fun element to the experience. The only downside for us is that it's pretty far from where we live, so I'm not sure I'd make the trip again just for the café. But if you're already in the area or live nearby, I'd definitely recommend checking it out! Turkish Espresso: 10/10 Pistachio Baklava: Tasty Ambience: Vibrant + peaceful Service: Attentive Experience: Unique & memorable Cute spot, great vibes, and definitely glad we tried it!

When you walk in the owner is often the one to great you, the cash register to the left of the entrance, and a lovely assortment of trinkets to the right. The food itself was nice and light.

The masala chai was a decent price for a pot and had a delightful flavor, I've since taken multiple people and a variety of different pallettes enjoy the flavor. This is a great date spot, but also low key enough to just enjoy if you want a place to relax, there's a small bookshelf if you wanted to un plug and read while you enjoy your tea. Ps. The owner is a professional guitarist, my friend who is also a professional musician has a wonderful time chatting with him about their shared passions.

This will be a longer review, but hopefully helpful for those that share our passion and want to get an idea of the impeccable dining experience we received! Cuisine, beverage, service and ambiance were all beautifully represented in a tour de force Bordeaux wine dinner at JJ's Liberty Bistro in Ponte Vedra this last Saturday. Each course was one foodie thrill after another! On the heels of an exquisite Valentine's Day meal (reviewed on this site), we jumped at the opportunity to experience Chef Oscar Perez' masterful creations expertly paired with wines from the beautiful Château Lagrange. For wine enthusiasts, this is a historic French Third Growth Bordeaux estate in the Saint-Julien appellation, known for its powerful, complex red wines made primarily from Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Petit Verdot. Taking an already-elevated dining experience to another level, owner JJ brought Château Lagrange's General Manager and Winemaker Matthieu Bordes along with US Manager Marie Gabriele and Importer Patrick Leveque to thoughtfully discuss each pairing from wine composition, regional history, vine age, crop yields, flavor profile, and so much more. My wife and I were fortunate to sit alongside them as we dined, talking about their passion for crafting amazing product, sharing their extensive knowledge, and exhibiting immense patience as I attempted to recall my French vocabulary! They were warm, generous and delightful company who we look forward to seeing again when next they return to JJ's. As is a hallmark of dining at JJ's, the service was elegant and fluid, timed with precision like a beautiful dance. We began with Stuffed Mussels w/Crepinette, paired with a white 2022 Les Arums De Lagrange. The white wine served as not only a palate cleanser, but also gave gorgeous floral and buttery notes that balanced the mussels perfectly. Next came a light Sheepshead Bordelaise, SO tender and sauced expertly to ensure each flavor could be tasted rather than overwhelming the palate with one versus another (wonderfully paired with a 2016 Haut Medoc De Lagrange). Pictured below, you can see how beautiful the plating was, as with all dishes that evening. One of two favorites on the night...impossible to choose...was the Squab two ways (pigeon, akin to duck), served with Dutchess potato. Rich and decadent, this was a gorgeous pairing with the Merlot-dominant 2017 Les Fiefs De Lagrange. I'll be thinking about this dish for a long, long time! Lamb Loin is a perennial favorite, perfectly cooked and sauced, accompanied by the most delicious mushroom soufflé we'd ever tasted. The flavors melded together seamlessly, enhanced further by each sip of the bold, fruit forward 2018 Chateau Lagrange St Julien. The Cabernet-dominant blend was magnificent, age worthy but very approachable now - we took home a winemaker signed bottle! Finally, we came to a very special dessert not often found outside of the France, Caneles de Bordeaux. It has a dense texture with a slight crisp exterior, and was created to use the yellow of the egg; in the past, the whites were used to filter the wines. Delectable and unique, capping off a truly memorable event! We were thrilled to learn that JJ hosts these amazing dinners monthly, so I've included a picture of the upcoming schedule. They have a tendency to sell out (as with the dinner we attended), so recommend calling the number below and booking early! If anyone would like to experience something truly special and intimate, where the outside world melts away and you can truly indulge your senses, this checks all of the boxes and places itself among the finest beginning-to-end dining experiences available to the public. Salut, et bon appetite!! JJ's Liberty Bistro 330 A1A N #209, Ponte Vedra Beach, FL 32082 (904) 273-7980
