    Loaded Burger Bowl
    Melanie W.

    We stopped in for dinner before a concert nearby. We were immediately greeted and seated. Our server was so pleasant and chatty. Really enjoyed her! My husband ordered breakfast which is why we stopped in. I got the loaded burger bowl and it was amazing! I love the option for a bowl. It was different and tasty!

    It's not bad it's not great. It's just another chain breakfast place that doesn't season anything. The biscuits are hard which happens to be one of my fav things. :(. The service was good. Friendly. The restaurant itself is smaller and very close together!

    Out with my friend having lunch today. Really cute diner and great staff. The young lady that sat us was so sweet and she had us sitting in Lindsey's area.. Lindsey was our waitress and she kept good eye on us, filled our drinks and gave us time to chat before we ordered. You can not ask for better waitress!! You can order breakfast all day or chose something else from the vast menu. It was hard to chose but I wanted breakfast my friend wanted fish and chips! She substitute Cole slaw for decent sized side salad which only cost $1 extra.. it was quiet today but we came late morning. We were not rushed by any means and Lindsey brought us Togo boxes when we finally decided we were done. Really cute place with good food and pretty big portions. I saw the order of chicken and waffles go to table behind us and it was huge! I highly recommend giving it a try there's something for everyone.. next time I go I wanna do the mimosa flight!! lol

    I've had my eye on this place for a little bit now. The decision to finally go was well worth it. We were greeted right away and sat. The waiter was quickly to our table and had our orders to us. The food was cooked well and tasted great. The prices are not bad for what you get. The inside is open and appealing to the eye. The noise isn't bad inside and it seemed to be very clean. Their sanitation score is pretty good also. The only bad thing I can say, they need to be easy on the grease. The bacon and hash browns were soaked with it. The food still tasted great.

    My Brunch experience today was not like the experiences others have had here. Our server was not very friendly at all. The place wasn't as clean as I would have wanted and the food was subpar. The biggest reason I was upset was because my friend called ahead of time and asked if they Bloody Mary's and they said yes. They even have them listed on the menu. So when ordered one, the server tells me that their bloody Mary's are made with sake. What the heck? That's not a Bloody Mary and I don't even know how they can claim that to be. It was awful! I ordered a cup of the chicken noodle soup and ate about half and didn't take it to go That says a lot right there. I also ordered the eggs beside g with broccoli instead of hash browns. It was so average and so meh. My friend has the mimosa flight and one of her glasses had stiff floating around in it so she had to send it back. Her chicken and French toast was so huge it was ridiculous. Was not my place for sure

    Philly & coleslaw

    Busy! But we got seated within three minutes. Waitress was nice and once I told her that it was our first time then she gave us additional information. So I would suggest that you let her know if it is your first time, otherwise not sure that she would have said anything about the menu. She gave us plenty of time to look over the menu but we had to wave her down to take our order. Don't get me wrong, she was friendly and sweet but not attentive. Maybe she just had too many tables. I had the Philly sandwich ($12.99) and it was VERY Good. The cheese melted in your mouth and the meat was tender and flavorful. I asked if the coleslaw was made there and she said yes, so I got it. It was good but could have been colder. Maybe it sat under the lights to long, or they leave some out for serving. My daughter had the chicken salad sandwich with fries, which she liked. Not over the moon but good. I took a bite and had to add salt. Daughter had half and half tea but we had to flag her down our girl to get a refill and she had no idea what she had. We told her half and half but she ended up bringing back raspberry tea and unsweetened. We then could not find our waitress to correct it and had to ask another one if she could help us. The second waitress was a little rude but brought back the perfect tea. We were done and sat for awhile until we finally were able to flag down our waitress. So, bottom line, busy, be patient, food good, and atmosphere similar to a Denny's. There is a sign by the front that says that Guy from DDD came in to the store in Florida.

    Fruity Waffle with no blueberries!

    Yummy breakfast and that strawberry butter was delicious! Food came out fast and the entire family enjoyed their meal! Pretty clean on the inside and had plenty of seating.

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.

We immediately were enthralled by the antiques adorning the walls. Yes, things are a little dusty but an antique collector knows that you sparingly clean these treasures to avoid destroying the authenticity. We ordered standard diner fare - burgers, fries, steak & cheeses, milk shakes - topping everything off with ice cream! The teenaged staff were attentive and polite, even eager to share their favorite flavors to help us decide. Everyone enjoyed their meals but my oldest said his steak & cheese was the best he'd had though it was smaller portion than he would have liked.

I REALLY hope this was a one off but I am worried it was not. What changed? The ground beef. Not sure if they got a different supplier or they are trying to cut costs but neither scenario is good because the meat is horrible. I will try it one more time to be sure but IF this is the new norm- I will not be back, like ever. If it's a cost savings plan- this never works. You end up alienating your core customer base to save a few pennies. It's not like this place is cheap. I'm paying a decent price but I expect a decent burger. Please Island Delights- don't do us like that.
