    This is the second time I've been here and both times it's been crap. Once in the winter and once in the summer. I tried giving them a second chance. Kids meals were ok, but no kids menu they " ran out" so I just googled it myself. Chicken tenders were very peppery for the kids. Steak and eggs was gross... eggs over cooked, steak like a piece of leather, hash browns refried and yet cold somehow. They comp'd the meal so I gave them an extra star and the server that helped us was fine but was the only server there.

    We went to the downtown Jax and had a very bad experience. When we arrived, we were told there was a 50-minute wait, which we accepted. Once seated, it took 30 minutes for someone to take our order, and another 30 minutes for the food to arrive. Almost 2 hours total for a coffee and Eggs Benedict. The eggs were not poached at all, they were basically hard-boiled, and the hollandaise sauce looked dry on top, not fresh. The worst part came shortly after eating: I had severe stomach cramps, bloating, and diarrhea. I felt extremely unwell and could barely move. This is the first time I’ve had such a strong and immediate reaction after eating such a simple dish. I do not recommend this restaurant. Long waits, poorly prepared food, and an experience that ended with serious stomach issues. Save your time and avoid it.

    This restaurant was disappointing. We stopped by a little before lunchtime and were seated right away, which was nice. Then we waited for 25 minutes for the server to come to take our drink and food orders. We waited another 25-30 minutes for our food to arrive and our cheese steak was overly salty and lacked substance. We couldn’t finish because it was so salty and didn’t want to wait another 20-30 minutes for them to make us something else. We chose to ask for our check when our food came so we didn’t have to wait another 20-30 minutes to pay.

    This is THE BEST breakfast place I have EVER been to. Certified by Guy Fieri, I was not disappointed. I had the French Toast and it was to my surprise, filled with custard and topped with powdered sugar and fresh strawberries. The BEST French Toast I have ever had the pleasure of trying.
