    I was in town working in Jax last week and our office is across the street from Pizza Dynamo, so when lunchtime rolled around and the hunger hit us, the decision basically made itself. Convenience level: elite! When I walked over, they weren't busy at all, which honestly felt like I struck the lunch jackpot! The inside has a super cute retro vibe, and I immediately loved the old boom boxes on display.. such a fun, nostalgic touch that gives the place personality! Ordering that day was done through a kiosk, which was quick and easy to navigate. My co-worker mentioned they usually have a team member taking orders, so maybe I just caught them on a one off day. I ordered a whole pepperoni and sausage pizza along with a large Caesar salad because balance... obviously. The wait time felt totally normal for a fresh pizza, and everything came out hot and exactly what I/we were craving. Solid, no fuss lunch spot that's dangerously close to the office!

    Stopped by Pizza Dynamo again recently for a Too Good to Go offering. We were waited on immediately and they had our order ready to go. Even though they were getting ready to close, it's always a fun atmosphere and I was excited to try some pizza I hadn't previously. Tonight, white mushroom pizza, pepperoni and Jalepeno and cheese pizza slices. All of them hit, really good white pizza and I was truly impressed with their standard cheese. It was fantastic. We'll be back, we did pick up, but I encourage you to dine in. I highly recommend this relatively new pizza gem in Jacksonville.

    Legit NY pizza. Great pies, good service, fun spot.. The recipes were brought down south from NY, this is the spot. My new go to pizza place in the city

    Found this place on the One Bite app, which had a high score and great reviews. Doesn't disappoint! Pizza has a nice char, and flavor is on point. Good thin crust that holds up and doesn't flop. I am a little confused; however, the menu is Italian-inspired, and the decor, with cassette tapes and 1980s boom boxes, creates a different vibe. Then there's the Spanish music throughout, and the sports on all the TV screens. The personality conflict is maddening.

    This place is soooo great ! Wow! I can't wait to go back already ! Pizza was amazing and delish ! For sure in my top favorite now! I love that you can just get a slice so you can get more than one ! Prices were great ! Workers were kind and service was very quick despite being very busy !I was so happy to see they were so busy on a Monday ! The vibes were so cool, fresh but retro ?! I can't wait to try out Pour, that is attached next door !

    What a great concept! A pizza joint and a pour your own alcohol combo spot. We went on the alcohol side and were able to order from a QR code which included both pizza as well as additional items. Pizza came out fairly quick. However, all the food came out at different times rather than the whole tables at the same time. I got two slices. The best one being the mushroom pizza, honestly it might've been the best slice of mushroom I've ever had. The hot honey pizza had a bit much honey. Like it was dripping off and I had to wash my hands afterwards. I would definitely go back if I was in the area and needed something quick to eat. Downtown street parking available. No charge on weekends. Place was packed on the Saturday evening we went. Fun vibes!

    I did my order online because we were going to be arriving 30 minutes before they closed. It was ready as soon as I walked in. Very friendly service. I love the online ordering option. Took the pizzas next door to Pour to enjoy a few beers and conversation with them. The pizza is definitely the closest to NY style I've had in Jacksonville. Thin but not soggy crust. Tasty toppings. Will definitely be returning. I easily found street parking but it was 8:30p on a Wednesday. At busier times, just park in the Vystar garage.

    Pizza Dynamo was a pleasant surprise! We decided to go for lunch last minute. It is connected to Pour Taproom. It's spaciou, you can get slices or whole pies. We had their pepperoni. Their slices are big and delicious. I really liked their sauce. Not too acidic. The crust was nice and crisp. Stop by if your downtown.

    Ok so here's the skinny one the 2nd day of the soft opening. This place was slammed! The staff hustled as hard as they could to get orders out in a timely fashion unfortunately the unexpected swarm of people overwhelmed them. That said, they kept a positive attitude, rallied and continued to bring out QUALITY food. Jacksonville asked for it and now they have it. A fantastic pizza place located in the heart of downtown. We ordered 4 pies. Cheese, Margherita, Pepperoni and Arthur (sausage and pepperoni w/ ricotta). Each pie was cooked to a delicious crisp. The undercarriage was perfection. The sauce wasn't too sweet or too savory. In my opinion it had the perfect zest. Overall the slices gives the vibe of the original Patsy's on 118th in East Harlem ( IYKYK ). DEFINITELY DO NOT SLEEP ON THIS PLACE!!

    We went to Pour and ended up ordering the Fungi Pie from Pizza Dynamo next door. The pizza took a while, they ended up burning our original pizza and had to remake it, which added to the delay. When we finally got it, it was a bit underwhelming. That said, I reheated it the next day and actually enjoyed it a lot more. I'd consider going back and trying a different pizza next time.

    Was kind of disappointed. The pizza tasted stale. The crust was very chewy. I feel they let their slices sit out for too long. I will go back to try a freshly made pizza. But this visit wasn't it.

    If you're not going to stay open until 10 on Friday nights, please don't advertise that you do. Showed up and the doors were already locked.

There's something for just about everyone here, whether you're looking for a healthy bowl, wrap, salad, or a satisfying protein-packed meal. Definitely a place I'd recommend for fresh food, great flavors, and plenty of choices.

I probably didn't choose the best option. I was excited about it but really had to force myself to like my broth bowl. The broth came out lukewarm. They did reheat it happily which I was hesitant to ask for. But I just couldn't eat it with cold broth. The broth had absolutely no salt. Like 0. I suppose if you don't like any salt it would be an okay option for you. I found most of the items to taste like grill and nothing else. Just wasn't impressed. I want to like it and I'm sure I'll try it again someday but wasn't memorable. Price was affordable however.

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

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!

You can create your own bowl or they have some options in the event you don't want to think too much. Very clean facility and staff is very nice. Lots of options for vegan , vegetarian and gluten free as well. Also, one of the best parts, they are huge military supporters. You can bring unit patch and have it displayed. This touches the hearts of all military families. They have so many sauces!!! They are so good
