I ordered the blackened chicken, rice, black beans, and avocado again (simple enough meal right??). I don't know what kind of chicken it was, but it wasn't blackened, and it was very dry. It just looked like chicken with seasoning salt on it. It looked NOTHING like the food I got yesterday. My bowl was $18.49 and NOT worth that at all. the avocado is $2.14 for 1/4 spear of a Hass avocado -- they can at least cut it in half to give the illusion that you're getting more, but that's whatever. Didn't enjoy my bowl and I won't be returning to that location. For what it's worth, the location was clean and service was quick.

I could not leave the parking lot good enough to drop and get write my review…read more This is my second visit. I'm from miami I'm visiting the parks as a childless gold season holder; therefore I plan to visit a lot. This is my second visit at Jason's Deli and I must say it is an absolute 10/10 experience even this second time around. Sharra was absolutely 100% attentive and helpful. Not only are the sandwiches ( I haven't yet tried anything else) but the customer service is absolutely 100% roo tier. When my order was a bit complicated ( due to my 4 hour drive back to miami) Sharra made sure to replay my demands to the chef who had no problem accommodating me. I did not get his name but it was the young man on Shara's shift with the dread locks, medium build about 23 years of Age looking. Nonetheless, I want to say thank you Jason's for always being so extra welcoming and attentive. I do want to say that the first visit was with a causacian woman. With the short court who seemed to be the manager. She wasn't as talkative or welcoming. However. I would just count her out and still say my experience at Jason's is a 10/10. Especially this visit!! Thank you Sharra. I will for sure be back in 2 weeks! xoxo SN: if you're thinking about going to Jason's;PLEASE DO!!! 10000000/10

My friends wanted salad, so we stopped by here on a Sunday afternoon around 1:00 pm. The place was…read moremobbed, and only had one person taking orders at the register, so the line was from the counter to the door. Finally a manager-looking person opened a second register, and it went quicker from there. We snagged a booth, put our order number on the table, and headed to the salad bar. The salad bar had a nice variety of items, and was well stocked. Because I ordered the "Manager's Special", I got a side salad plate to go with my half a Reuben sandwich, but that was plenty of salad. The half of a sandwich arrived quickly, and was really good. Things I did not love about Jason's: too long to order, the place was incredibly LOUD, with screaming children and crying babies as far as the ear could hear, the potato chips that came with my sandwich were all broken into tiny pieces, the ice cream in the machine was a melty blob, and the muffins that looked like chocolate were actually gingerbread, and terrible, so don't be fooled. If I go back, it won't be on a weekend.

This is the avocado toast Jason's deli on Fowler sells. And the store manager says this is the correct amount.

I've actually had CAVA before, but it had been a few years since the last time I went, so I was excited to try it again. We both ended up getting bowls, and everything tasted super fresh and flavorful. I got arugula and brown rice as my base with harissa honey chicken, tzatziki and hummus, plus corn, pickled onions, pita crisps, pita chips on the side, and the yogurt dill sauce. Everything mixed together so well and had a really good balance of flavors and texture. The harissa honey chicken had a really good sweet and spicy flavor without being too overpowering. For my drink, I mixed the blueberry lavender drink with lemonade and it was SO good and refreshing. My mom got the garlic dressing on her bowl and I highly recommend trying it because it was really flavorful and paired well with everything. The portions were great, the ingredients tasted fresh, and the whole meal felt light but still filling. Definitely a place I'd come back to again!

The lady at the counter that waited on us seemed a bit bored & perhaps unhappy to be there. So she was not a good first impression for us, lol. I ordered a beef shawarma & a side of fried mushrooms to share. I admit fried mushrooms are not exactly a common item given a Med menu. When they arrived I had to laugh. We received a large bowl with what looked like golden golfballs. These were literally large mushrooms that had been deep fried. There is no way these were healthy, but they tasted good line State Fair food, lol. The shawarma was surprisingly good for a fast food joint. The beef was of decent quality & the tehina sauce was tasty. Overall, not a bad experience.

He took the time to go over the menu and explain in detail what they offer and some of their latest creations. It was a wonderful start to my first visit. After his recommendations I decided on the classic Cuban sandwich and the beef and cheese empanada. Hands down one of the top 10 Cuban sandwiches I've had in quite some time. Especially in the new Tampa area. The Cuban sandwich was absolutely delicious. Pressed perfectly with amazing quality ingredients inside. The beef and cheese empanada was equally delicious. If you are in the area and looking for authentic Cuban food, done, right I highly recommend giving them a visit. I will definitely be back and this will be a regular staple for me.
