Had a nice lunch out at Wicked Barley Brewing Company - Jacksonville, FL today to kickoff and enjoy…read moretheir Reggae Sunday season. 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.

The bar was pretty full when we arrived, so we took a seat on the couch for a second, before we decided to start browsing the beers in the frig and on the wall! Such an interesting place. I chose a beer to take home. Tyler the bartender introduced himself to me and we chatted a bit, and he took my order. Such a nice guy! The 1st time I ordered a Quad and the Gringo nachos. The bar was full, and people were shooting pool and playing darts. Tyler was the bartender again, and he remembered me. Then also the owner's son introduced himself to us. Such a good vibe here! I order a Quad, and it was on special for $4.99 a pint! Scored on that one! Also ordered the grilled cheese and sweet potato fries (I met to order the zucchini sticks) Next time! The Quad was great! I don't know why that grilled cheese was so freaking good! (it's just grilled cheese, right?) lol the sweet potato fries were also good but let me tell you about that made from scratch ranch dressing! Hidden valley ain't got nothing on this Ranch Dressing! It took those sweet potatoes fries to the next level They do run out of items, so make sure you have a 2nd option in mind! They also make from scratch, pretzels and perogies. If your Vegetarian they have: The grilled cheese, Gringo Nachos and Potato Perogies Tyler also said you can bring in food from other establishments.

Laura was treating me to lunch for my birthday that has since passed. This was our first time here…read more We've heard good things about the place. 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. Pros:big place with a very friendly atmosphere. Great service and food. Cons:it was out of their control that the machine went down. Recommend:Yes

There was an older man inside watching the game, we all sat at the bar and my aunt and I ordered our coffee, I ordered the Turkish Coffee and my aunt ordered a mocha. They were both delicious. They didn't have desserts or pastries. There was a box on the countertop that had chips and granola bars for sale. The man was kind enough to gift a bag if chips and a fig granola bar to my 2 y/o. He said he was from Rome and he was very kind. Our total for the two coffees was $6.50. Great Price! For a quality beverage so glad we stopped.

We'd been here before but only once prior to a Michael Jackson event at Painting With A Twist nearby. First, let me say that I made my beer choice on name alone. It ended up being a great sour red though, so I'm not mad at it. Humor goes a long way with me though, so even if it wasn't great I would've dealt with it on name alone: Cherry Busey! We only hung out for a little bit (again, we need to get home for dinner) but it would he very easy to stay for longer. You can see from the photos that they have a ton...and I mean a ton of craft beers. In addition to that, they have a big room with lots of room to kick back. Our night was delayed shortly when my wife decided to take on one of those wooden barrel puzzle. You can see her dismay in the picture of us! We both took a crack at it for a while and never did solve it, but we eventually decided we needed to let it go. You win this time wooden barrel puzzle! One other thing to note is that there's parking behind it. So if you decide to go there, don't be intimidated by what looks like street only parking. Go around behind the place and you'll be all set.

The restaurant was extremely clean and it definitely gives "island vibes". They were out of jerk chicken and plantains - but they immediately let us know what they had to choose from. We opted for curry chicken and 2 veggie plates to go. The staff were helpful and made our plates promptly. I would note that they were also conversational and wanted to know if we had ever been there before. I was happy they didn't skimp on anything - food or service. I couldn't wait to get back to the house and dig in because the entire car smelled like a kitchen. I would consider myself an 'island food connoisseur' and I can confidently say they have THE BEST Rice and peas I've tried in Jacksonville. It tastes just how my family makes it and the seasonings were all on point. The portions were great and my mother stamped the curry chicken as one of the better restaurants in the city. She also felt the cabbage was flavorful and not over-cooked. Overall we give it high ratings and will be back with others.

It was delicious, but when they tell here that something is very spicy, believe them. I can't wait to go back and if you haven't tried this gem, I highly suggest you do.

First off we ordered steak burritos- paid extra... the meat was literally STEW meat- not steak! It was so disgusting. Secondly, the ground beef tacos tasted good until you realized how crusty the meat was- as if it had been sitting ALL DAY in a bin! And lastly the nachos were exactly the same crusty old chicken meat!! We ordered pretty much every meat there and all was DISGUSTING and we had to throw out because meat sitting around all day can't be healthy! My recommendation is to NOT come here for the food!

Almost that of a club, the servers were pleasant and quick , which I do appreciate. The food needs a big improvement , What I ordered Queso : which came out thick like a barely melted block of cheese. Enchilada trio : verde , plain chicken and queso The star of the show was the verde , it was seasoned to perfection with a little kick of spice. The other two were quite bland to me. Churros : while I could tell they were homemade , I think feel short in flavor.
