Such a nice little touch, and it was actually good. While looking over the menu, I also loved seeing that they offer senior citizen specials. I'm already looking forward to coming back with my mom--she loves fresh seafood! The biggest reason I'll be returning, though, is the seafood selection and the fact that you don't have to get everything fried. That is a HUGE plus for me. I ordered the blackened stuffed flounder, and it was packed with flavor and extremely fresh. The two sides I chose were delicious as well, (cheese grits, sweet potato) and the selection of sides on the menu is extensive, so there are plenty of options to choose from. I also ordered a glass of white wine, which came in the prettiest glass. The atmosphere is another thing I really liked. It can be slightly dressy or super casual, making it a great spot for different occasions. I also loved having both booth and table seating options. My friend and I had amazing service from start to finish. Between the prices, portions, service, ambiance, and flavor of everything we tried, this was an easy 5/5 stars for me. Definitely looking forward to coming back!

We recently visited Julington Creek Fish Camp to celebrate our anniversary, and overall, the food…read morewas wonderful. Everything brought to the table tasted fresh and delicious. For appetizers, we started with the snapper bites and the fried blue crab claws. Both were cooked to perfection and packed with flavor. For our entrees, we decided on the seafood broil and the fried platters. Both dishes hit the spot. The portion sizes were well balanced, and we left feeling satisfied rather than overly full. On top of that, the pricing was great. Our waiter was great, but the pacing of the meal could have been smoother since it took about 45 minutes to get our entrees. There were a couple of other notable downsides. The restaurant was quite loud, and to top it all off, a woman at the table right next to us had her shoes off. Management really should have controlled that kind of behavior, as it detracts from the dining experience. Furthermore, despite making reservations to celebrate our anniversary, the restaurant did not acknowledge it at all. That was unfortunate. Still, the quality of the food and the service from our waiter kept things afloat.

Seafood Kitchen was the very first place we stopped after landing in Jacksonville, and it was the…read moreperfect introduction to East Coast seafood. Coming from the Pacific Northwest, we have pretty high standards - and this place delivered. We came toward the end of the night, and while it was still busy, there was plenty of seating available. The atmosphere is no-frills and laid-back - like a classic seafood shack you'd find at a coastal fish market. Nothing fancy, just fresh seafood done right. The raw oysters were fresh and an absolute must order. Since we visited during the winter, I also warmed up with a bowl of clam chowder, which really hit the spot. We also tried the boiled oysters, served hot and charred, and they ended up being everyone's favorite. We all eat oysters and seafood pretty regularly, and even we were surprised by how flavorful they were. If you stop by, don't just order the raw oysters - get the boiled ones too so you can experience both. You really can't go wrong here.

While the service I received was really great the food just didn't hit for me. Bland is the word I…read morewould use to describe it. Not bad exactly, but certainly not inspired. I tried to start with the Smoked Fish Dip but they unfortunately were out of that so I pivoted to a bowl of New England Clam Chowder. It was served with two stone cold hushpupies which added nothing. If you can't serve them hot you are better to not to serve them at all. The soup was also a miss for me. I could decern very little clam flavor amongst the potatoes. Just a miss for me. The special of the day was a Shrimp special. I ordered it fried which was probably a mistake in retrospect. While they were nice shrimp the batter was again not spiced at all, none. It was just a miss for my palate. Maybe it was just me ordering the wrong things as the ratings here are so high but I feel like the Yelpers led me astray here. :(

The first thing we saw was a line out the door, which felt like a good sign--and there was still a line when we left. My girlfriend and I had never tried fish and chips, so we ordered the fried haddock basket with fries and hush puppies. The haddock had a light breading and was incredibly flaky--it practically melted in my mouth. We also tried the blackened shrimp basket, and the shrimp was perfectly seasoned without being overcooked. You order at the counter, and they bring the food to you. Despite the long line, our food came out surprisingly quickly.

The restaurant is situated so magnificently right on the water that it almost feels as though you are floating directly on the river. Upon arriving, one is greeted by a rather striking shark specimen suspended right at the entrance which gave us quite a playful laugh at first glance Stepping inside, the interior is wonderfully clean, vibrant, and well-appointed, featuring lovely artwork and charming private dining nooks. Though it was briskly busy for Sunday service, the ambiance remained thoroughly pleasant and impeccably maintained. We were seated toward the back of the establishment, offering an utterly magnificent, unobstructed view of the river. To begin, I selected a crisp Corona Extra with a fresh slice of lemon, while my assistant opted for a fine beer. For our luncheon, we ordered a platter of raw oysters, which were extraordinarily fresh, perfectly chilled, and thoroughly divine for a late-afternoon meal. To top off a splendid day, we indulged in a warm cinnamon roll for dessert a delightfully decadent sweet finish. Watching the breathtaking sunset cast its glow over the water made for a truly magical afternoon. Impeccable views, fresh cuisine, and a wonderful atmosphere I shall most certainly be returning!

The potatoes were perfectly soft and able to sop up the seasoning. The sausages were a good combo of chewy and soft. And the corn was super juicy and sweet. We got the mild option, but honestly, we didn't really notice any spice, so I would definitely go for a higher spice level next time. The seasoning was pretty good, but not the best I've had. It was a bit too oily for my preference, which sounds a bit dumb because of course it's oily. But it was so hard to get the seasoning on the food. At times it felt like I was only scooping oil up without any of the flavoring. Whereas at other places, it felt like the oil itself was super flavorful too.

Tonight we decided to try the chef's special and split the swordfish with goat cheese potatoes, green beans, and puréed corn. We also ordered a large side of their creamy grits and they were the perfect addition! The portion was HUGE. No matter how much we ate, it somehow still looked like we hadn't made a dent in them. We also started with oysters, which were delicious! Sorry no picture this time, they were gone too fast. For dessert, we tried the red velvet cream cheese cake. It was really good, although their bread pudding will always be my favorite. I was nice tonight and let the hubby pick. You really can't go wrong coming here for a nice dinner. The food is consistently good, the portions are generous, and it's one of those places we're always happy to come back to. I definitely recommend making a reservation, especially on a busy night, but you can get lucky as a walk-in. We walked in tonight and were seated with no wait! Another great dinner at Palm Valley Fish Camp!
