We really enjoyed our breakfast here recently, and you can't beat the beach view. We came here several years ago and weren't impressed, but they gave really upped their game. Good food, good service, great view! read more

Great view- food was delicious- attentive staff! I'm from San Diego and have been in search of a place with good salsa... this place it the mark! Breakfast Burrito was on point!! Great Bloody Mary as well! read more

The view is amazing if you're sitting outside. The bartender was great and super fast. As for the waiters and the food, everything was super mid. The food was underwhelming and nothing to rave about. If you like mid food this place may be for you though. We had to ask the staff to take our order as they didn't even bother to check on us. You can find a better place with a better price point. We are not coming back, unless we want a good view with quick drinks. Be wary of the oblivious service and unimpressive food (my shrimp omelette only came with 2 small shrimp). That's not a shrimp omelette. LOL read more

Great atmosphere over looking the ocean . The Shrimp Crab Florentine was spot on. Eggs cooked perfectly , stuffed with lots of shrimp. Perfect blend of crab and Hollandaise sauce . Everybody loved the cheese grits. Great staff. Btw the Bloody Mary's were excellent read more

Fun breakfast spot overlooking the beach. Lots of good breakfast options. We had the crab Eggs Benedict, which were great. My daughter and her friend had the veggie omelette and the pancakes - both were excellent. They make some great Bloody Mary's as well - Jay the bartender is super nice. Good service overall though can get pretty busy for breakfast. read more

The breakfast was really good! And of course sitting on the balcony is what really makes the meal.

So visited today. Trying to figure out where the restaurant was is a little confusing as it is on the 2nd floor above Slider's. Stairs are located on the side under the sign for the Tiki Bar. There is also an elevator located inside Slider's for access. As far as food, it was ok. I had the Mexican omelette and my companions had omelette as well. Not bad.....just meh..... Now the oceanfront view was nice and there is outdoor balcony seating as well as indoor. The wait staff were friendly and attentive. The trippy thing was they had a robot food runner!!! Had never seen one and myself and all the kids in the joint were amazed! read more

Not sure how one finds out what the restaurant personnel will be before coming...but that was our situation today. We have eaten here before, upstairs, on the beach, creative menu, nice staff...this time very limited menu (apparently chef wasn't there so very basic menu eggs menu but had shrimp and grits, fried pork chops for breakfast...unusual). We have had seafood eggs Benedict that was real good. Today not so much! Our server was young and sweet and it certainly wasn't her fault...everyone was just trying to roll with the punches....I just wish I had known before we came. read more

After a nice early AM beach walk with friends, we dropped in here for a beverage and a bite of breakfast. Took advantage of the perfect weather and a table on the outdoor covered deck to enjoy the breeze and the ocean view. With plenty of great choices on the menu, we selected the huevos rancheros (wife) and a bowl of classic shrimp and grits (me). Both were expertly prepared with generous portions and super tasty. Big salute to the chef for masterful presentation and plating of both dishes. We first eat with our eyes, after all. I also enjoyed a refreshing and delightful Bloody Mary cocktail as a starter. Can't wait to come back! read more

Breakfast was solid. Ate at the bar for breakfast so that was nice change. Friendly service and view is unbeatable.

Perfect brunch spot overlooking the beach. Stopped in on Saturday during prime brunch hours. No wait, food was very tasty, and service was quick and friendly. They also offer brunch specials but we went with the seafood omelette w/ cheesy grits and benedict w/ potatoes. We also ordered spicy Bloody Mary's which definitely had a kick to it. Great experience overall if you want an ocean view and skip the wait of other brunch spots in the area. read more

Horrible service! They hate Christians! The management discriminates against Christians. Roy in particular!!!! Not the upper part with the brunch, but the lower tiki bar. Locals were a costing my daughter and my wife, and we mentioned it to the manager. The manager came out and told us that we should leave! This place does not have good service and utilizes the only spot on the beach as the reason to do so. Beware and go down a couple miles to the other tiki bars! This place will only disappoint you and try to get you in trouble for no reason. Roy the manager, and his assistant were so rude to us and only worried about the regular that was there a costing us! They never came and asked us to leave until I asked for the manager's name! Remember that. Stay away read more

Service was great. Awesome view. Request seating on covered deck. Omelet was large and tasty.

Guacamole was good. Had a couple of drinks. Service at the bar was marginal. Very loud and karaoke-like live music when we went yesterday. Could've been better. read more

My favorite breakfast restaurant on Amelia Island. The location is fantastic to enjoy a beach sunrise. It opens early so take advantage. The menu is a standard breakfast menu. The Eggs Benedict item are very good as are the cheese grits. The servers are fun and engaging. read more

One of my favorite places on the island .. never disappoints. Breakfast, lunch, dinner. Amazing cocktails and a fabulous staff!! Set aside a day to spend ocean front or on the beach enjoying some of the best appetizers around as well. Beautiful views, comfortable seating and smiles from ear to ear. Don't forget the outback bar with swings and live entertainment... Best Bloody Mary around... read more

I didn't realize we had a separate restaurant from Sliders upstairs. According to the server it's the same operator. They changed their serving hours for breakfast only now. They do not serve lunch or dinner. The breakfast was pretty good with a seat on the balcony overlooking the beach. The Bagel sandwich was yummy. The bagel is soft to eat which is perfect for a breakfast sandwich. The hours of operation are 6am - Noon Monday thru Sat and 6am - 1pm on Sunday. They serve breakfast only now. I contacted the administrator to make corrections to the hours of operation read more

Western omelette was good, not the best I've had but good. Lots of filling, so if you are hungry, this is the plate for you. Cheese grits were, without a doubt, the best grits I've ever eaten! So very good! Atmosphere was nice, services was excellent. I did end up eating here 3 times in a 5 day span. read more

Business is closed. I am not sure why it is still showing up as a legit destination eating establishment. I suspect an adjacent restaurants are happy to receive patrons that were in search of TJ's! read more

Food excellent. Service was great. I think your charges for soft drinks and coffee are a bit high. The paper straws need to go. And the syrup on the soda. Eggs were excellent and the rest was fantastic I think the coffee should be cheaper along with soft drinks. Definitely would come back read more
