Eureka (I have found it)! Hollywood in Florida!!!!…read more JUST like Dr. Indiana Jones combing through the jungles seeking his ancient museum artifacts, I was navigating the curvy wilds of the Jacksonville Southpoint area, located near I-95 and JTB. The best things in life require some effort to build your appetite, and whereas I did not collect a golden idol like Dr. Jones, I was rewarded instead with a cheerful new friend and one of the absolute FRESHEST sandwiches in JAX! Nestled between the sparse woods and surrounding offices you will find happy, loyal diners who fill Hollywood Heroes and Subs each lunchtime to the point where the line stretches out the door. I had just seen the last of the lunch crowd smiling and saying goodbye for the day to our energetic and upbeat host, Founder, sandwich artist and Jacksonville native Kevin Porter, an actor turned restaurateur -- known for roles including "Lazer" in Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story, plus appearances in Daredevil and General Hospital. Something that cannot be "acted" around was his genuine welcome and desire to roll out the red Hollywood carpet for all who make the journey (yes, it's a REAL red carpet)!! This sweet shop is the perfect size, and has a significant amount of Hollywood memorabilia all around to keep you engaged while chatting with Kevin as he works his magic. And what he produced was a treasure of cheese and meats that made me forget about whatever might have been chasing me through those woods to get there! J/K In between wonderful conversation with Kevin, each bite of my MASSIVE "The Towering Inferno" hot hero (pepperoni, Genoa salami, cappy and melted provolone) on fresh baked Village Bread made me realize just how huge and delicious this thing was. Kevin promised that the one pictured is exactly what every customer will get...he prides himself on highly generous portions at fair prices...and man, did he deliver!! I would have been completely satisfied with HALF, but NO!!!! There sat its twin, begging for sacrifice to the stomach Gods. I was only too happy to oblige! The owner Kevin = engaging, friendly, talented with his craft, makes you feel like you drove through the woods to come home to your happy place. The ambiance = bright, colorful, great memorabilia, puts you as the star of the show. The sandwiches = creative in name and product with fresh being the operative word, this sandwich hit above its price point and I can't wait to try to the rest of the menu! So no, I didn't get chased by a boulder, or leave with Dr. Jones' golden idol, but I did get a Golden Belly from my experience, and the knowledge of why hundreds of hungry lunch- goers seek this "Temple of Delish" every day!! Crack the whip and corral your family into the car for this absolute treat in the core of "ancient Jacksonville!!"

Ok, I have to be honest and say I went here thinking I would have given a worse review bc I don't…read morelike the long wait, limited menu (only salads, bruschetta, and sandwiches), and high prices ($45 for a sandwich, side salad, and slice of cake?!), but this place TOTALLY lives up to the hype!!! Fortunately, you can avoid some of the wait if you get your food to-go. They have reserved parking spots right next to the entrance and a whole separate area to order to-go food. I came on a Thurs at 1130am and was able to order/leave in 15-20 minutes. What made me fall in love with this place was, believe it or not, the Caesar salad dressing!!! It had so much flavor and was so addicting I ate the salad in 5 minutes. The Hot Italian sandwich had tender flavorful meats, great addition with the banana peppers, and bread was light/fluffy/spot on! The wedding cake was SO GOOD! Layers of moist cake, creamy icing and sweet strawberries. Yum! The inside decor wasn't very fancy but who cares when the food's so good? Will totally be back.

Newk's Eatery is one of my favorite places when I want a meal that's fresh, nutritious, and…read morereasonably priced. It's hard to beat the value--you can enjoy a quality meal for around $11 per person, which is rare these days. The food is consistently fresh, flavorful, and made with quality ingredients. It's nice to have a fast-casual restaurant where you can eat something that tastes great without feeling like you're sacrificing nutrition. The restaurant itself is always clean, including the dining area and restrooms, which says a lot about how they operate. Friendly service, great food, fair prices, and a spotless environment make this an easy five-star recommendation. I'll definitely keep coming back.

We settled on into experience Newks all over again. The restaurant opened at 11 am on Saturdays. I had the Ceasars salad with the salmon. Wifey had a soup and a half of the po boy sandwich when she could have had a whole sandwich. Both of us did not like the lobster bisque. My first choice was the new cheddar and cheese soup but I would have had to wait. The manager came over and asked how we liked everything. Customer service was at its finest. We were treated to the cheddar broccoli soup since we did not like the lobster bisque. Free refills with the decorative cups to take home as a plus! Money well spent and continue to reminisce about the first time we came to Newks over 10 years ago. Newks has changed but we enjoyed it.

I call in my order sometimes and I'd say the wait is around 15-30 minutes for fresh food so I'm never mad about it. They're always nice, but not overly friendly (I mean that in the best way) - not the "overly fake customer service I'm going to get fired if I don't show all my teeth nice". I think I usually spend around $23-30 for 2 people when I go so burgers, fries, drinks, and a little tip for the jar. This is a place I suggest if you're on the East side of the river and want a solid meal.

Was excited to try the Luck of the Irish pop-up appetizers with friends, but we left disappointed…read more The St. Paddy's Day decor was nice, however the floors, tablecloth, chairs, and even the seat cushions were extremely sticky. Staff mentioned it was from drinks spilled by other guests, which really showed a lack of proper cleaning. We ordered all six appetizers but only received five, as the Guinness pub cheese never came out. The Reuben eggrolls were a 4/5 and the giant pretzel for two was a 5/5, but the other three appetizers were about a 1/5. The specialty drinks were also underwhelming. Angela's drink was mostly ice with very little flavor, especially disappointing for $15. My Irish cream drink needed ice added several times. I'm also unsure why a 13% gratuity was automatically added when there were only four of us with three separate checks. For two appetizers and two drinks, my bill came to $63 with tip. Very overly priced. Our waitress was very nice and accommodating, but she mentioned she was also the bartender, waitress and host, so it seemed like they were understaffed. Unfortunately, between the cleanliness issues, missing item, and underwhelming food and drinks, I'm not sure I'd come back.

Charlie was the lead bartender and our server, he is absolutely fantastic!! Such a people person with such a kind demeanor! So glad we had him! We started with the potato skins, which were delish! I chose the chicken quesadilla and my friend chose the chicken tenders with fries. Speaking as someone who LOVES a quesadilla...this one was perfect!! Put together well and did not fall apart one bit, very flavorful, and the tortilla was cooked correctly and was a perfect golden color, zero burn marks!! My friend loved her tenders as well, the crinkle fries were great too! Definitely will return to try more items!! The decor at this time for the Sippin Santa is the perfect ambiance for some fun & a night out! We had a great time, keep it up Laura- you've got a very special thing going here!!!

Broadway Deli is hands down my FAVORITE deli in Jacksonville!…read more They literally have everything... hot meals, fresh salads, classic deli sandwiches, and the freshest bread every single time. You can taste the quality in every bite. The bread is always soft and perfectly baked, never stale or dry. And let's talk about the chicken salad... I could eat it every day. It's flavorful, perfectly seasoned, and always fresh. What really keeps me coming back is the consistency. Every visit is the same high quality, generous portions, and quick, friendly service. It feels like one of those hidden gems that locals know is elite. If you're in Jacksonville and want fresh, reliable, DELICIOUS deli food...Broadway Deli is it. 10/10 recommend every single time.
