Had occasion to partake of the Sandbar several times during my 3 night stay and was very pleased with the food and service. For food I had originally ordered the crab cakes and was surprised when they arrived "cajun style" which was not noted on the menu. I spoke to the manager, Matt, who told me they had just changed the menu but hadn't gotten new ones yet. He gladly removed it from my bill. The smash burger was great as was the Sunday brunch breakfast bowl. The staff, Grace, hostess extraordinaire, was great. Helpful and personable. Bartenders Vinny and Jesus were great, good conversation and drinks. Others working when I was there, Russell and Valeriya, and the manager Matt, all seeming to hustle and keeping the place running and I saw no complaints from other customers while there. Pretty well run shop and I have been in a few similar places in my time.

The servers are all great, but Brandon is the bomb in the dining room. The menu is robust and everything is made from scratch. Our family's favorites are cheese bread and lamb chops to start. The favored entrees are the filet meal, the ahi tuna meal, the smash burger and for me being vegetarian, I do the curry dish with no protein. Dessert is the donut bread pudding. It's a lively atmosphere but classy. Reservations are suggested for prime hours. You will love this place.

The pool tables were also removed. The service was great, but the food was not. The theme was "overcooking" the night we were there, and everything was overcooked and dry. My son ordered a medium-rare burger that was well done. The garlic burger lacked any flavor of garlic. The chicken wings lacked any flavor, and were so overcooked that we left them behind. The salad looked as if the kitchen simply opened a bag of pre-mixed salad and dumped it into a dish. The shrimp were clearly pre-frozen, and lacked flavor (Mayport shrimp are right up the road, hello??). The salad lacked dressing, but the served offered additional teriyaki sauce (which is not salad dressing, but did offer some flavor). This is sad renovation to a great burger place. The bar still has many beers on tap, so there is some hope.

I had my first meal there when I visited Jacksonville Beach recently. Got the grilled bone-in yellow snapper, which was a daily special. Fresh, meaty, smoky. It was served with mixed greens and apple salad, some grilled green onions and freshly made corn tortillas. All paired well with the fish. The tortillas were about 0.75oz per piece. Moreover, the dish was served on a HUGE cutting board! I also ordered a side of Spanish rice, but surprisingly the manager took it off from my bill, saying that "[he was] glad that I enjoyed the meal so much"! The first meal was indeed impressive; it had been a while since I had had such Mexican food last time. So I decided to give it another try the next evening. Ordered the Carne Asada (asked for rare) and sub the beans with extra tortillas (to avoid high GI food). But the steak was disappointing: the first time it was served ~medium-well. The second time it was ~medium-rare so I did not complain twice. However, it was quite chewy. One reason was that, as you can see from my picture, the meat was not rest long enough before it was sliced and served. Service was good, friendly and quick. The restuarant was a bit noisy but I enjoyed the energy. Moreover, there were lots of beautiful decors and murals. I really like the tiger painted on the wall of their main dining area. So in short, I would recommend this restaurant if you like Mexican food. I would recommend the seafood and slowly-cooked stuff, like their short rib and pork shank. And I will dine in again the next time I visit Jacksonville Beach.

On arrival my friends were easily assisted and provided a spot outside upon request for four of us for brunch. Server, Michelle, made sure all could be set up quickly- balloons and cake. She was exceptional. Quick service, very thorough, super friendly- but not just that, very personable. Answered all our questions and made great suggestions. Appetizers were Buffalo cauliflower (not on brunch menu) and spinach dip. Both were wonderful- great flavor and portion size was large. Meals; Two Short Rib Benedict's- Large serving, we each ate half. Good amount of meat on 2 pieces of seasoned toast with eggs and a side of home fries. Two salads- one goat cheese and one fig. One plain and one with shrimp. Super tasty. Started off with a bottle of champagne for mimosas. When time for our cake, Michelle was quick to action and bring plates and utensils. She felt like part of the celebration over just being our server. Really haven't had this level of service or genuine personality at any restaurant before- not even for upscale nights out. We will be back.

It's the kind of place you can recommend with complete confidence--you'll never have to apologize. In fact, I'd go as far as to say the experience felt Michelin-star worthy.
