    Met the truck team today!!
    Rose M.

    Discovered this food truck parked behind the Avmed building on Riverplace Blvd on Wednesdays purely by accident. The crew inside this tiny food truck were fun and in a great mood for being out in the cold with no customers. I don't think many people know they are there every wednesday as the crew told me while they started me on a punch card for return visits. All in, it took about 5 minutes to get my order after I had made my decision with numerous recommendations from the crew. I ordered the Brilliant Buffalo Chicken Panini (Chicken breast chunks with peppers, Franks hot sauce and ranch dressing with a slice of american cheese). They gave me fair warning that it was messy and included extra napkins so I wouldn't ruin my desk with my eating. The panini was made with half of a deep pita that had been sliced, filled with ingredients, then grilled to crispy soft goodness. They set it on a bed of lettuce leaf and added a touch of parmesan cheese on top. My only complaint is that I could have used a little less ranch and a little bit more hot sauce - possibly they should offer it on the side. The taste though was heaven! I debated between the mac&cheese, the broccoli & cheese soup or the asparagus and finally settled on the asparagus after viewing the pictures on yelp. The asparagus themselves though were the right call as they were perfectly grilled with a touch of seasoning and served with more of the parmesan cheese sprinkled liberally on top. You can tell that the chef loves asparagus as much as I do as they were just right with none of the horrible white ends full of too much fiber and also not overcooked to limp noodle status. Final verdict? The frequent buyer card has earned a spot on my desk so I can be back every Wednesday - I think I will try the silicon valley panini next!

    I stumbled on Professor Panini downtown and decided to try it. I had the Chicken Parm Panini - it was absolutely incredible!!!

    So, full disclosure, I'm a sucker for sandwiches. I stumbled on Professor Panini downtown at Riverplace Tower and decided to try it. I had the Chicken Parm Panini - it was absolutely incredible!!! The chicken is hand breaded and fried right in front of you, the provolone cheese was melted and the marinara tasted homemade. It I wasn't holding it like a sandwich, I would've thought i was at a nice Italian restaurant. I would highly recommend Professor Panini to anyone who loves a great sandwich!

    The best panini I've had yet!

    The best panini I've had yet, It included avocado, chicken, two different cheeses, and pesto! And the asparagus was cooked to perfection. I wouldn't mind going to the truck for the asparagus alone. It's amazing. The service was fast and the owner is so friendly! I definitely plan on going back again.

    I've been to the Red Gill Bistro for a Yelp event prior and have been wanting to come back since. I…read morebrought one of my gfs this time and we had a great mom's night out! Charlie was the lead bartender and our server, he is absolutely fantastic!! Such a people person with such a kind demeanor! So glad we had him! We started with the potato skins, which were delish! I chose the chicken quesadilla and my friend chose the chicken tenders with fries. Speaking as someone who LOVES a quesadilla...this one was perfect!! Put together well and did not fall apart one bit, very flavorful, and the tortilla was cooked correctly and was a perfect golden color, zero burn marks!! My friend loved her tenders as well, the crinkle fries were great too! Definitely will return to try more items!! The decor at this time for the Sippin Santa is the perfect ambiance for some fun & a night out! We had a great time, keep it up Laura- you've got a very special thing going here!!!

    Was excited to try the Luck of the Irish pop-up appetizers with friends, but we left disappointed…read more The St. Paddy's Day decor was nice, however the floors, tablecloth, chairs, and even the seat cushions were extremely sticky. Staff mentioned it was from drinks spilled by other guests, which really showed a lack of proper cleaning. We ordered all six appetizers but only received five, as the Guinness pub cheese never came out. The Reuben eggrolls were a 4/5 and the giant pretzel for two was a 5/5, but the other three appetizers were about a 1/5. The specialty drinks were also underwhelming. Angela's drink was mostly ice with very little flavor, especially disappointing for $15. My Irish cream drink needed ice added several times. I'm also unsure why a 13% gratuity was automatically added when there were only four of us with three separate checks. For two appetizers and two drinks, my bill came to $63 with tip. Very overly priced. Our waitress was very nice and accommodating, but she mentioned she was also the bartender, waitress and host, so it seemed like they were understaffed. Unfortunately, between the cleanliness issues, missing item, and underwhelming food and drinks, I'm not sure I'd come back.

    The Red Gill Bistro - The potato and meat pizza was my least favorite. And not because it didn't taste good but because the combo wasn't for me.

    I had two doctor appointments back to back in the Belfort Road area. But, I had about an hour to…read morespare. So, I pulled up the Yelp app, as usual and looked up breakfast close to me. This was the first place that popped up for me. I am Diabetic 2, and I was feeling hungry and a little bit weak. I actually saw this place as I passed by on my way to my first appointment! I walked in and inquired if they had pita bread. The lady that waited on me was very nice. Yes, they did have pita breakfast sandwiches. She asked if I wanted butter or mayonnaise and I told her yes. I also had a cup of water. I had my coffee at home this morning. I see they have great prices and daily specials! I love that. They also have soups and salads. One review said they have great potato salad. I might get one, "to-go". I also noticed that they have regulars here, an elderly gentleman and also doctors and other medical professionals from the close by hospitals and doctor offices. I also noticed a police officer come in. I wished I lived closer. But, I will come by when I am in the area. It's always nice to find and discover new places. Pros:great prices, people and fast service with a smile! Cons:no salt on tables Recommend? Of course!!!

    Excellent lunch spot! I stopped in while I was out running some errands for work and managed to…read morefind a terrific, new favorite sandwich shop! I love finding new spots I haven't tried before and though my husband has been talking about this place for a very long time it was the first time I stopped in! I now totally understand the hype not only is it delicious food it is delicious food that I could get fairly quick. The place looks like a typical deli no glitz no glam just really good food that speaks for itself! I ordered the Reuben with a side of french fries and the Turkey Reuben was absolutely delicious and super filling! I wasn't a huge fan of the french fries but honestly, I also didn't need them because the sandwich was so big! I will absolutely be back to try a different sandwich or maybe even get the Turkey Reuben again very soon!

    Let's get the legal disclaimer out of the way... as an official "yankee", I'm required to say:…read moreNothing will ever truly replace a New York lox bagel. But Jax Bread is probably the best you're going to get in Jacksonville. And it's excellent on its own merits. I ordered the lox bagel and it hit all the right notes: a perfectly chewy bagel, super fresh toppings, and the ideal cream cheese-to-bagel ratio (which matters more than people realize). Everything tasted fresh and was thoughtfully put together (more proper ratios). The service is always lovely, and I've genuinely never had anything here that wasn't delicious. This visit, I also grabbed the day-old mystery 3-pack of bagels so I could carb out a few more times this week. They're just as tasty, freeze beautifully, and at $2.99 it's an unbeatable deal. I'm already eyeing Jax Bread for some Christmas goodies this year because there are so many great things to choose from. If you haven't been yet, fix that.

You can order at the register or they have a tablet ordering system that's credit card only. I ordered at the register and got their turkey pesto melt on sourdough bread. It comes hot and with cheese. The sandwich was amazing! There was so much flavor packed into it - the pesto was amazing. It was also a great size. I can wait to go back and try some of their other items. They seem to also sell an array of beverages, tons of bread of course, and they have a section of day old bread at a discounted rate. Definitely a must try!
