    There's just something special about a breakfast that feels like a warm hug and a trip back in time all at once. Stopped by Johnny's Angel and went straight for my forever favorite, the Fats Domino omelet. Packed with sausage, potato, bacon and melty cheese, it's hearty, comforting and absolutely loaded with flavor. Paired with creamy cheesy grits and classic white toast, this plate hits every nostalgic breakfast note. Service was friendly and quick, and the retro diner vibes never miss. Chrome, color and old-school charm everywhere you look. It really does feel like stepping into a time machine to when breakfast spots were the heart of the neighborhood. If you're craving a true diner breakfast done right, Johnny's Angel needs to be on your Jacksonville list. Have you been yet or is this going on your must-try list

    The food was absolutely delicious. That atmosphere was great. The noise level wasn't too loud.

    Love, love, love!!! Will definitely be back. Johnny Angels is so nostalgic and the food/customers/vibe is EVERYTHING that you just think it would be. There were just 2 people, day date with my husband, so we got sat instantly at the bar. Groups of 4/5 were pretty common and they had maybe a 20 min wait. I got a Ruben with fries and side of ranch. It was toasted to perfection! Not nothing overpowered each other. Not overly sauced, just pure deliciousness. And that RANCH, phew... it was heavenly. My husband got the pancake and egg breakfast with sausage and a side of home fries. The pancakes were slightly sweet and fluffy and just YUM! But let's talk about their sausage.... I'm not that big on restaurant sausage as most are pre made or frozen, but dang... I wish I could buy their sausage in bulk for real. I think the patties are made in house to be honest. They were cooked to perfection and juicy. The whole staff just worked well together and almost like they really LOVED their job. They flowed around each other with no problem and it's a small space. I will definitely be back and I most definitely encourage you to go if you haven't been. This will be in my list for bringing out of town guests to when they stop in.

    My daughter took me here as a treat for brunch. I had not heard of it before and was so pleased by it. It doesn't look like much outside, just located in a strip mall, but wait until you walk in the door! It's super kitschy with the whole 1950s vibe. Really made me smile when I first saw it. The waitress was lovely and personable. We arrived at that sweet brunch time immediately between breakfast and lunch, where there was a slight lull before the next wave of customers. Nevertheless, even as it continued to get busier and busier, we were always treated well and the waitress was very efficient. My Popeye's omelette was perfect, with tons of spinach, Swiss cheese, and crispy bacon! The egg was cooked well, not dry, and not a bit of brown. The biscuit and potatoes were very good. My daughter had the Salem's Benedict. I had a bite and it was perfection. So were the grits. We still ended up taking some leftovers home because the portion sizes were great! She wanted us to have milkshakes too, but we were too full and had too many errands to run. I do hope to come back here (with my husband) and try those milkshakes!

    Food was Fantastic! I ordered the La bamba (You have to try it) Coffee nice and fresh! Ambiance is on another level! Old school 60's themed. Old movie posters and photos on the wall makes for a great conversation piece. Service was Terrific. We got some recommendations to try the burger on our next visit. We will be back!

    Angel's Diner is such a fun spot for breakfast or lunch! The 50s-style decor is absolutely adorable and gives it so much charm. Our server was a total delight and made the experience even better. I got the bacon, egg, and cheese in a pita with home fries, and the portions were massive--definitely come hungry! I'm already looking forward to coming back to try something from the sweet side of the breakfast menu as well as lunch.

    If you want to feel like you've stepped straight into the 1950s while still in 2025 Jacksonville, this is the spot to visit. The restaurant is packed with retro memorabilia, and the waitresses bring the nostalgic vibe to life right down to serving classic root beer floats. The food is just as impressive: I tried the Captain Crunch French toast topped with strawberries, bananas, whipped cream, and graham cracker crumblesabsolutely delicious. A fun, unique experience all around!

    I've been in a few times when visiting friends. Always good food and service! The portions are generous for the price! I got a custom omelet and my friend got French toast and said no meat so the waitress asked if I wanted it since wed get charged... um yes! Love the decor and the juke box!

    Fathers day weeknd! Happy Fathers day to all the Yelp dads! I carouled my grands and son to a Fathers day breakfast/brunch. One son was missing. Johnny Angel missed the mark on several accounts. Mimosas were on point and huge, unlike flutes the mimosas come in. Silver dollar pancakes were out for the kiddos and were devoured. There were only 3 pancakes though on the plate. The La Bamba Omelette and Belgium Waffle with scrambled eggs came later. I asked the waitress to bring coloring books and crayons. All in all , Johnny Angels had a nice vibe. The La Bamba omelette had a nice flavor. However, the cheese sat on the omelette for minutes. The plates were sized well. Wifey and I will definetly visit in the near future

    The food is amazing. The service is top tier. The ambiance is like living back in the old good days. Definitely worth the money what I get to eat.

    The Restaurant is located in a strip mall tucked back from St John's Bluff. Plenty of parking. As you walk up to the restaurant your not expecting what's inside because the outside of the restaurant is modern looking, but as you walk in you're transported back in time with the checker board counter, the memorabilia hanging on the walls and even the booths had the 50s vibe. A TV in the back we were sitting close to was playing a Doris Day movie. Really cool concept. We were greeted by a bubbly server promptly. The menu items are names appropriately. I ordered the Elvis Special and wanted to try something unique and different from the standard breakfast. It didn't disappoint. Everything was cooked perfectly. We will definitely be back! The Burger is next!

    My sister had recommended Carolina Jax on a previous trip to Jax, however they had been closed…read more This trip we were looking for a decent lunch and decided to head over. There was a decent amount of parking which I was surprised about given the location. The line was to the door when we arrived. The line went pretty quickly, about 5 minutes to get our order taken. I opted for the Hurricane burger, my son opted for a basic cheeseburger with only pickle. We also ordered fries and onion rings for the table. Our food took about 15 minutes, during this time, we saw a tray of fries sitting in the window. We were hoping it was not our order as they would be cold by the time our burgers were completed, however they called us and sure enough it was ours. We touched the fries and they were very cold. We told the employee, who knew the issue and they remade the fries. I'm glad they didn't make an issue about it, but also disappointing because the employees thought it was okay to even serve cold fries. The burgers were fantastic. The hurricane had so much flavor, I wouldn't hesitate to order it again. The onion rings were good and the fries were decent. My son loved his burger and the rest of the family enjoyed their meal. It was a nice lunch and I wouldn't hesitate to return.

The burger was delicious and get why folks frequent this spot. It's a good size with loads of toppings. I don't like fries so the Mac n cheese side option excited me. Sadly the Mac n cheese was a miss. For starters the portion was about two to three bites for $6 it's already in a small cup so why it was less than half full I couldn't tell ya. The crew was super nice, they offered a different side and getting my order was quick. So as for customer service they got it down! I'll be back for the burgers and will make my spouse order them fries.

My friend ordered us the Pork Belly Kimchi Fries, I got us an order of the Cheese Curds, and for my entree I got an order of the Asian Sticky Wings. I probably would have never ordered the kimchi fries on my own. Sometimes kimchi can be fickle and really hit or miss. It was definitely a hit here. More on the sweet and tangy side but worked really well. Fries seasoned perfectly, and the pork belly cubed and cooked to perfection. Out of all of the times I've been to Wicked Barley, these fries have to be one of the best items I've had from there. Cheese curds were pretty basic. Tasted great, but nothing to write home about. If you like Cheese curds, you'll enjoy theirs. I originally had my eye on the jerk chicken wings and I was warned by the waitress and my friend that they are REALLY hot. Jerk chicken is generally one of those thats right on the borderline of too hot for me. To give you an idea, if you're familiar with Butthutt BBQ's jerk chicken, theirs is as far as I can go for spice level. So I switched it up to be safe, and I am glad I did. Sweet and sticky, these had really great flavor inside and out. Would definitely get these again in the future. Brought a couple home to the hubby and he seemed to enjoy them too, and he normally doesn't like, what he refers to as, "sweet meat". I had three different beers in my favorite tasting style, sour. I had the PB&J sour, the mango sour, and the orange cream sour. The orange cream was my favorite of the 3. We enjoyed the sounds of the band Splittone in the background and enjoyed the whole vibe of our meal. I'm hoping to visit again on a future weekend and possibly bringing one of my pups along with me since they are dog friendly.

When we walked in, we saw a huge table of senior citizens, maybe about 20-30! We decided to stay. There was only one Bartender and one Waitress. The place was packed. We sat by the window seats-that was all that was left to sit at. The Waitress was very attentive(even though she was slammed). Today's special was shrimp baskets. Shrimp could be cooked three ways. I chose fried w/onion rings(fresh-not frozen rings) & and a 50/50 tea. My meal was delicious. Laura had blackened shrimp w/broccoli. We both enjoyed our meals and had a great conversation. I had $40.00 cash on me and Laura had a card to treat me, but the internet and card machine had just gone down. So I paid for the meal and tip. Laura Cash App'd me $40.00.
