    Went to JaxSpice for Valentine's Day and had such a great experience. We had to switch our reservation time last minute and they accommodated us with no issues, which I really appreciated. The service was amazing from start to finish, super attentive without feeling overwhelming. I also thought the iPads for the menu were a really cool touch, and I loved that there were visuals for each meal. The portions are HUGE. Our entrees honestly lasted us at least 2 to 3 meals, so definitely come hungry or plan for leftovers. Overall, everything about the night was smooth and enjoyable. Would definitely go back!

    Rice
    Briana N.

    Really solid spot and located in such a convenient spot. And the food came out sooo fast. We tried the Veg pakora - I liked this a lot, as well with all of the sauces it came with. Super oniony in a good way! But I found myself wishing it was crispier. Maybe it's because we got it for takeout though. Naan - was debating on getting this because the curry came with rice, but I'm so glad we did. It was so warm and soft and chewy. Part of me wishes we had gotten another order just because it was so good, but it's honestly big enough on its own that one order was enough. Chicken tikka masala (medium) - basic I know, but it's basic for a reason! Super creamy and really hit the spot. But a little on the spicier side for me, kind of wish there was a level between mild and medium. Chicken biryani - the portions for this are hugeee. But super flavorful and really good too.

    My monthly group of friends gathered at Jax Spice. The happy hour is great. It's so much fun when a group orders Indian Food as sharing is the norm. Our server handled our table of 16 without issue. I have been to all locations of Jax Spice. The food is always delicious and service great!

    Fantastic! Fortunate to be there for lunch during their grand opening of the Gate Pkwy location. the food , service, owner were all wonderful. There's table and booths and the it's clean and well lighted The items were marked for the event so what we were able to sample we could relate to name and all the items were spot on! My favs were the garlic butter Naan, all the appetizers were tasty esp the chicken 65 chicken mo mo and chickpea salad. The bar area has TVs be a good spot for some game watching Like the menus are on a tablet so easy to read - overall very good experience. Definitely will return.

    One of my favorite restaurants in Jax! The service is always top notch and it's a huge space, perfect for big parties. We came to celebrate my dad's birthday and he loves this spot. My favorites are the garlic cheese naan and chicken 65, but everything is so good, you can't go wrong. The flavors are so good and it's a great introduction to Indian food for people who have never had it before.

    There was adequate parking and lots of seating inside and outside. The restaurant was airy and clean. I do not usually eat Indian food, but Jax spice did it right. Our waitress was excellent and friendly. We were able to choose our level of spice heat. I enjoyed all the items we ordered, it was very flavorful.

    Vegetable samosas with tamarind and mint sauces
    Ravindra M.

    I learned about this restaurant at the recent yelp event. I am familiar with the restaurant at the beach and so I knew I would be familiar with the quality of food. They have street and parking lot parking, which was free. The restaurant is located a few minutes. Drive away from the town center in the same compound as midtown table. When I visited today, the restaurant was relatively empty as they are not fully open as yet. At this point, the started a soft opening. The menu included appetizer and main course dishes, but no disease at this point. They did not have any drinks, other than water, but that is understandable as they are not for the open. The space is large and open, and the decorations are not fully in place. The ambience did not bother me as I was here for the food! We started off with vegetable samosas, which tasted fantastic. They were hot and fresh with a crisp shell and tasty center. For the main course we had rice, plain and garlic, naan, lamb, korma, as well as butter, chicken and paneer. Our server was attentive and prompt and checked in with us frequently without being too intrusive. Our portions were large where we had enough to take home to have a second meal tomorrow. We got great recommendations per split to spice levels and started up with mild and medium range. Orders for space which was well tolerated and tasty. We will try to make another visit in a couple weeks time when they are fully opened. We are not disappointed and I recommend that you try it out! It is nice to have more options for Indian cuisine near to the town center on Southside.

    Safura O.

    So excited that JaxSpice opened a new location on Gate Pkwy! The food was absolutely incredible -- we tried the samosas, pakoras, daal tadka, shrimp curry, and chicken biryani, and every dish was full of bold, authentic flavor. You can really taste the care and quality in each bite. The service was outstanding -- a big thank you to Chris and Sunny for making us feel so welcome! The space is clean, inviting, and easy to get to with plenty of parking (and no Town Center crowds!). Whether you're craving Indian classics or exploring Nepali favorites like momos, this place delivers. Highly recommend stopping by -- we'll definitely be back soon!

    Jax Spice might be my favorite spot for Indian food in the area. I was pretty excited when this new location opened up within walking distance of my office. The restaurant looks great, the service is solid, and the menu is huge and full of classics like naan, butter chicken, tikka masala, and more. Everything I've tried has been delicious, and they definitely live up to the name with just the right amount of spice. I really hope this location does well because I plan on coming back often.

    The Elder Martini
    Tiffany B.

    I went to the new Jax Spice location on Gate Parkway. I was solo dining and sat at the bar. Chris was very attentive and the service was awesome. I had The Elder martini to drink. It is now one of my favorite martinis! It is very similar in taste to a lemon drop martini, but I found it to be more refreshing and not as sweet. To eat I had the Kachumber Salad and the Methiwali Kali Murgh. Both were very fresh and really good. The salad had crisp cucumbers, tomatoes, and red onion tossed in a light squeeze of citrus and a little salt. Rhe Methiwali Kali Murgh included a side of rice. The sauce that the chicken was in had a flavor unique to me that was really good. If I had to describe it, I would say it had a hint of curry and tomato flavor. I loved it. I chose a spice level of 3, and it was truly medium where there is a bite, but not fire. The location itself is clean and there is a ton of space. The bar has a lot of seating, there are plenty of tables inside, and they also have outdoor seating. I'm looking forward to returning and hopefully will make it for happy hour soon.

Some of the plates were dirty or cracked, and the silverware was placed on the table in a way that felt careless and unprofessional. They advertised guava drinks, but after about 15 minutes our server came back and said he couldn't get it out of the can and asked if I wanted something else instead. Meanwhile, we watched tables that arrived after us receive their food while we were still waiting for ours. We were also told they had no regular napkins available and were only given small cocktail napkins. Overall, it felt like the restaurant was unprepared for guests that night. The server did seem like he was trying, which I appreciated, but overall the service felt disorganized and slow, and our table did not feel like a priority. My family has always liked this place a lot, but after this experience, I'm not sure how often we'll be coming back.

He asked me where I had been and I named the places and he said, in essence, "do you expect to find authentic Italian food at Olive Garden". I had to say NO ( I mean it is not really bad but it is NOT authentic). He then suggested JAX Spice with the proviso that he was NOT related ot anyone there and gets no perks for recommendations, but that it is where he goes when his wife does not cook (and for the record she teached Indian cooking) Well I went and it was the best Indian food I have had since I ate Indian in London (about as good and authentic as you can get unless you actually go to India). Their prices look high at first but then the portions arrive. A couple can EASILY share n entree and even have some to take home. The Tikka Masala and Butter chicken are both DELICIOUS and here is the surprising part for me. I am a dyed in the wool carnivore and even I like (and will order) the vegetarian dishes. Their veggie Korma is super and their Gobi Manchurian is binge worthy. I cannot stop ordering it! The ambiance is laid back and service is super (at least at the one off CR 210 that I go to). I cannot say enough good about it and I get cravings about twice a month and have to go there. It is a bit more upscale than many of the Jax establishments, but still laid back enough that you feel comfortable with a big family.

It was a healthy portion of chickens and vegetables cooked perfectly and a huge side of white. I'm going to assume basmati rice. It was $24 but it was enough for a meal and a half - ish (more if you eat all the rice) I just wish they served some type of bread along with the meal no extra charge

Since I didn't have any friends in Jacksonville, I leaned on yelp for everything from getting my nails done to of course eating some good food. I passed this place several times while leaving the St. John's town center. Because of their hours of operation and my schedule, I was not able to make it there for their lunch buffet. Since I was by myself, I opted to sit at the bar. Let me say, the place was absolutely spotless! And I loved the decor! Everyone from the hostess, to the runners, to the bartenders were all very friendly. For the price of what I paid for wine, I definitely had a slight buzz from the amount that was given! I opted to order the tandoori chicken with rice with a side of naan. The non-laced a little bit of salt, but I see that this is a trend in the Jacksonville area. But no worries, it was still fresh and did it job. The chicken was nice and tender, and I left feeling full. Reheated my chicken and rice two days later, and the quality and taste was still there!

I was a bit disappointed in the selections, as so many tasted the same. The goat curry - which I love - was all bones, I went 3 times to try to find meat, and it was just all bones, but it did have a lovely flavor. I found the Naan not to be at all soft and chewy, but rather hard and tasteless. Maybe I hit the end of the batch? The interior is lovely. Very calming and pleasant. I do think they could do without the big screen TV. Sometimes it's just nice to sit and not have that playing in the background. Service was a bit off and on. I had asked for ice, several times, before receiving it. As most people get the buffet I guess they figure you're on your own. My table mate did not get the buffet, and had a hard time even placing her order as they just don't return to the tables. I would go back, but probably for something off the menu, not the buffet.
