While reservations are required, Laura the owner , was gracious enough to let us get transported to this wonderful place you see here. First off, this place is everything! The details from ceiling to wall to all the fixtures, it's very immersive, you are in the islands sir or ma'am! Goodbye Jacksonville! We were seated up front where performer Kalani Rose set the mood and infused the air with her lovely voice. The tempo was upbeat, the volume was just right, allowing for intimate conversation and lively chatter alike. Great for date nights and group outings. We ordered food including Aloha Sliders, Huli Huli Wings , and Furikake Fries. Food was good, would've loved more of the glaze on the mini burgers tho! The drinks we ordered included Mai Tai (rum based w/ orange ) and Halekulani (bourbon with pineapple orange and lemon) , these were delicious. A bit on pricey side but strong! But, you're paying for the presentation and the atmosphere! If you've ever been to the old tiki lounge off baymeadows from years past, this one is much better! The entire staff is so cool. Like really chill. Hubby and I really enjoyed our visit here! I'll bring the ladies next time!

They had a pineapple salsa on them and the flavors were so perfect together. Non alcoholic it was an acquired taste I'd give it a 4 sweet but not to sweet. Spam rice was about a 2, it was salty for me. I wasn't too much of a fan. Will return to check out the ambiance.

Just the kind of spot we were looking for! Natives to a…read morestate that nobody here likes we were looking for what people would call "a dive bar". No bells and whistles- just drinks in a non-pretentious environment and without an obscene cost per drink. We found THE place! We hit My Tap Room up for a pre-dinner cocktail (or 3) Greeted and served by our tender, Drew, we learned the history of the place (which also holds a packaging license so you can purchase bottles to go). They have trivia on Tuesday nights, we're told, where the open up a door on the wall that connects to the tap/pizza spot Nextdoor (same owner) Anyways- tons of choices for beers on tap and a ton of variations each type of alcohol you could want. We each had a shot of Crowns Chocolate as well as the caramel. Thanks for the hospitality, Drew.

Our Waiter-he did a great job in taking care of us. I call that, "WOW" service. Pros:food, service & atmosphere. Cons:never-none Recommend? Absolutely! This is an update from the previous reviews.

I went when they had the house band, pretty good music, nice easy environment, wasn't too crowded…read more I don't drink so I can't speak for that, I came for the music. The house band is pretty good, a little bit on the young side, but they seem to get the job done. OK. After the house being played a set, they had a sit in sessions with various musicians, which is always nice. The atmosphere is subtle and quiet at least for a club. Location is great, and the staff seemed friendly. It's good to have a place in Jacksonville with an environment like this and a place where you can go and listen to jazz/blues. I wish there was more like this, maybe with a little bit of older, jazz, musicians and more people who appreciate jazz as it didn't seem like the audience was 100% jazz lovers, but that doesn't detract too much especially since there's not a lot of places in Jacksonville that do what they're doing here.

Indoor table, bar or outdoor seating, the choice is yours. I had a phenomenal paper plane this last visit - perfectly balanced and shaken, truly 5 stars.

Only to find the most vibe forward loungey club I'd experienced before. It was a late Saturday night and I walked in without any idea where I was going, but I was pleased and shocked! The vibe was there and the noise was loud but I was still able to talk. Lots of people chatting in groups and a dj! The drinks were delicious but also was awesome it was connected to grape and grain! So it was a double win! Check this place out for sure

We were immediately impressed when we went in; lots of dark wood and a long bar with shelves and shelves of spirits. There were mostly bourbons and whiskeys. They even had a rolling ladder so bartenders could reach top-shelf bottles. We had about a 10 minute wait for a table on a Saturday for lunch. The time went by quickly and we were seated at a small wooden table. Our server, Erin, approached us quickly and took our drink orders. I ordered a Blue Moon and my husband had the WC Old-Fashioned. It was made with Evan Williams 1783 Bourbon and he said it was quite good. ($13). For food; I had the Rooster Royale which was a fried chicken sandwich with pickles and hot honey BBQ sauce. It was $16.50, and one of the best chicken sandwiches I've ever had! Even the bun was delicious! I'd planned on only eating half; but I ended up eating it all because it was so good. I also had the homemade chips which were yummy too. My husband had the Reuben which was $19. He said it was really tasty and full of meat. He commented that it didn't get "mushy" or fall apart. He had the crispy potatoes as his side and he raved about those too. We really enjoyed our meal at Whiskey Cake and would definitely return. The only drawback I can think of is that they don't seem to have very many healthy lo-cal options.

We came here today for my goddaughter's graduation celebratory lunch. Having never been here I was…read morenot sure what the menu options would be or what to expect. First I have to commend Christina, who was our server. A table of eight, she managed us with such grace, professionalism, and outstanding service! With a constant smile on her face, she asked us open questions and was very attentive. Not once did I have to ask for an iced tea refill because she was staying on top of it! The menu, though short with options did have a creative variety. We all tried the cinnamon roll, which I have to say was beyond, and I do mean beyond outstanding. In fact, it was the best cinnamon roll I have ever had with the toasted pecans and the sauce. WOW!! I ended up with the pancakes and eggs, and the eggs were cooked perfectly! The pancakes were were thick and had good flavor. It was a little overcooked for what I prefer, but overall, it was very good. Looking at the other options of what friends were having the food looked amazing. I am not a bacon eater, but one of our table mates had a bacon dish that she said was phenomenal. I will definitely be back
