The hostesses always seem less than thrilled and/or not very energetic in their role. I can't think of another place where the people who greet you & seat you, are so drab. You don't have to be like Texas Roadhouse but, a little something would be nice! The servers do what servers do. I've sat with several and can't say I have a favorite & can't say there's one I refuse to have wait on me, again. They're courteous, and attentive. They're consistent with their food offerings and can't say there's much I'd ask to fix, except the hush puppies... seems like they always fry them too long! Otherwise, it's still on the "yes" list!

Beware of purchasing a gift card. I purchased a $50 gift card on May 3rd on the website. It was…read morean actual hard copy gift card. I spoke to a man by phone after the purchase (PayPal) and was told it was mailed to my son in Macclenny, FL on May 4th. My son has yet to receive it. He went to the Macclenny restaurant and was told there wasn't anything they could do to resolve the issue. I have tried numerous times to call the original number, left texts as well as emails to two different addresses listed as their "Contact us" email address. No response. The end result is they got the money and my son got nada. Thankfully, PayPal refunded my money.

The restaurant is located in a small shopping center and has a colorful sea related decor inside. I came here to specifically try the Shrimp Charleston, and I was not disappointed. The dish includes Blackened Shrimp and Nettles Country Smoked Sausage, topped with fried cheese grits, seafood bisque and chives. It tasted savory, fresh and flavorful. My server Jennifer was friendly, personable and attentive. She anticipated my needs and checked on me frequently. I would definitely recommend this restaurant for flavorful seafood and friendly service in the Jacksonville area. Cheers

I decided to get my kids and I a nice dinner for a Friday night and ordered through DoorDash. Firstly the shrimp I paid an extra $8 for as a topping to my steak was missing. Luckily DoorDash refunded that, but of course they couldn't do anything about the inconvenience of missing a big part of your meal. The meal listed "sweet potato" as a side and showed an actual sweet potato. What I got was a small cup of mashed sweet potato, the kind they put sides of dressing in. Same with their side of Mac n cheese. Quite small for sides. The 8oz steak had about 3 good pieces and the rest was all fat. So that was a disappointing $30 meal. I got unsweet teas for all three of my kids' meals because they can't have sugar. All three teas were sweet. So I had to make them tea at home so they weren't disappointed. I spent over $100 on this Friday night, supposed to be NICE meal, and entirely wasted that immense amount of money. Last time I'll be getting a nice meal take out in Macclenny; they've really got the WORST service here and horrendous prices. Do yourself a favor and avoid this local restaurant.

Fried fish and shrimp with fries and slaw. Everything cooked to order and that kitchen has it going on. Served hot and fresh and fried to perfection and well seasoned. It was really one of the best fried seafood platters that I can remember - seriously ! The line was steady the entire time we were eating but it was moving steadily. Parking lot is currently undergoing some updates (July 2026) so be prepared when you arrive. I only wish there was a location closer to home but regardless, this place is worth the drive from anywhere in Jax and surrounding areas.

I really wanted to like New Berlin Seafood, but after giving it two chances, I'm honestly left…read moredisappointed. On my first visit (a Wednesday), I waited over an hour just to be seated....only to find out they were completely out of oysters for the week. That was frustrating, especially after such a long wait. I decided to give them another shot this past Wednesday, hoping for a better experience, but unfortunately, it didn't improve. This time, I was told that oysters can no longer be prepared a certain way because it's considered a "special order." Instead, you're limited to however they choose to serve them.....either raw or lightly steamed. For a seafood spot, that's a bit surprising. Most people have a preference when it comes to oysters, and being told you can't customize your order feels restrictive. After speaking with the manager, she did agree to accommodate my request this one time (for one or two dozen), but also made it clear that moving forward, it wouldn't be allowed. That response didn't sit well with me....it gave the impression that customer preferences aren't really a priority. Between the long wait times, limited availability, and lack of flexibility with orders, I left feeling unpleased and unsatisfied. At this point, I'm not sure if I'll be returning.
