While seeking an exceptional dining destination in Southbank this evening, I happened upon BB's,…read moreand it proved to be an absolute culinary triumph! Arrival was effortless thanks to their convenient parking options. Stepping inside, I was immediately enchanted by the ambiance. While unassuming at first glance, the decor is exquisitely appointed, featuring a charming bar area alongside a breathtaking display of artisanal cakes and delicate treats. The venue is pristine, elegant, and impeccably maintained. The hospitality was top-tier from start to finish. My server, Evan, was remarkably gracious, attentive, and ensured I was seated comfortably, making the entire experience feel thoroughly luxurious. To unwind after a long day, I ordered an Espresso Martini, which was mixed to sheer perfection smooth, rich, and an absolute delight. For my main dish, I selected the Duck Wonton Napoleon, which was nothing short of divine. The flavors were sophisticated, beautifully balanced, and executed with real skill. From the pristine cleanliness and chic decor to the stellar service from Evan and exquisite cuisine, BB's earns full marks. A thoroughly marvelous evening I shall most certainly be returning

We came here to finally try their popular desserts but we stayed for dinner!…read more We loved the drinks and our food. We ordered a board as an appetizer and waited close to 35 minutes for it before our server realized she never rang it up. We were upset as we wanted something to snack on as we waited for our meal. She offered to quickly have it made, but our food was almost ready and it did not make sense to us anymore at that point. But no other resolution was offered. The food was great, but it took a while to get our food. It didnt seem to be busy, yet they where slow. Im sure if we had our appetizer, we wouldnt have noticed the 45 minute wait. We loved the cheesecake and the mocha cake! Drinks where very nice and strong. Overall, i loved it here. Hopefully next time ill be able to get my board!

We have been back here multiple times since my last review and owe them a better review…read more We live at the beach so it's a bit of a trip for us but decided to make it over today for lunch. It was a really good experience. We started with the baked Brie appetizer and it was delicious ( forgot to photograph that). I'm a vegetarian and love the fried zucchini sandwich but today's lunch special was a spaghetti squash special and it was delicious! I highly recommend it. Hubby had the smash burger and fries and all was good. I had a special cocktail called Blue Eyes something that was very refreshing. Elise gave us very good service and as always, I got a piece of Tropical Cake to go, that will last for days. Other than parking being tough, this is a great place for girls days, lunch with the hubby, etc.

One of the highlights of the evening was the chef/owner personally visiting our table. He was incredibly warm, hospitable, and genuinely passionate about his restaurant and guests. The salad was fresh and delicious, and you could immediately tell that everything was made to order. I had the Sofy with veal, and my husband had the Sofy with chicken -- hands down one of the best pasta dishes I've had in a very long time. Every bite was flavorful and perfectly prepared. Five stars all the way! Highly recommend this little gem to anyone looking for authentic Italian food and outstanding hospitality in Jacksonville.

She made sure to check up on us, answered all of our questions, and refilled our drinks often. It was super clean there too! We were started off with some fresh, warm bread and a balsamic/olive oil dipping sauce. The bread was perfectly crispy and went so well with the dipping sauce. We were served cold bread before at restaurant so I'm glad we had warm bread! We decided on the following appetizer and entrees: Fried meat ravioli - 8/10: it came out piping hot and it was so delicious! Fried to a nice, golden brown and covered in panko crumbs, it didn't feel heavy at all. It came with a fresh marinara sauce and had parmesan cheese sprinkled on top of the fried ravioli. Each bite was cheesy, crispy, tasty, meaty, and we devoured it quickly! Carbonara Alla Roma - 8.5/10: I thought the portion would be small since I seen photos online but it was actually a great portion. I had enough to take home and eat as leftovers! The pasta was cooked perfectly and the alfredo sauce was balanced and decadent. I could taste the pecorino romano, and cracked black pepper. The pancetta was smoky and added a nice umami flavor to the pasta. I didn't rate it higher because it was slightly missing a little bit of of that BAM factor! but it was pretty delicious! The Sofi - chicken - 9/10: Oh my gosh! My best friend got this and I wished I would have too! It was sooooooooooooooooooo good! It had prosciutto di parma, mushrooms, asparagus, shallots, cooked in wine and tossed in a rose cream sauce. The pasta was also cooked perfectly and that sauce was to die for! Each bite was like tasting the finest flavors and spices of Italy. I could not believe how tasty this was! If you come here, you HAVE to try this dish! Tiramisu - 9.5/10: One of the best tiramisus we've had in Jacksonville. It was the perfect amount of espresso and cream. They had dollops of chocolate sauce on the side and helped elevated the flavor of the tiramisu. It also wasn't super sweet which we appreciate. We don't really like overly sweet desserts and this one hits the mark on everything. Overall, service, food, and atmosphere was great! We would definitely come back to try other menu items! Thank you for such a great first experience, Sofi's!

The only downside is the parking lot--there aren't many spaces, and it can be a little difficult to park. The restaurant is always clean, and the staff are consistently friendly, welcoming, and attentive. As an added bonus, there's a beautiful scenic spot along the St. Johns River right behind the restaurant, making it a great place to relax and enjoy the view after your meal. Highly recommended!

It's a really small place, about 4 tables, 3 of them will seat 4 and 1 will seat 2 people, then they have a few tables and chairs outside. I was greeted as soon as I walked in. It was a bit overwhelming to order; my brain was on overload for sure. You can build your own, I started with that, but I wanted to pick more options, than what It was suggesting. And I didn't want to end up spending $50 on one bowl. I was at the self-order machine, and ordered the Bankok bowl, then realized the machine didn't take cash. So, I had to go to the cashier for her to take my order, by then I forgot what I decided. She was very helpful, even before I had to go to her for her to take my order. I got the teriyaki bowl with tofu. And the Kale smoothie with green apple. You taste mainly green apple with this smoothie. It's sweet, but not too sweet. The Teriyaki bowl came out smok'n hot! I was impressed with that alone! The sauce, came on the side, in a little pre-maid container, and it was just enough sauce for the bowl. That bowl had so much flavor. And the tofu was great! I would defiantly check this place out again!

The pork was fatty and soft, and the flavors really complemented each other well - genoa: this was decent too and a little lighter than the porcetta - le bouef: apricots mustard was interesting but not as good compared to the others - lamb shawarma: I love lamb but this was rather plain. I asked for more yogurt sauce to pair it with but definitely the least good here
