    First time at this Loop location but a very big fan of this chain. This Loop location was not up to the standard we expect. Caesar wrap was a woefully small portion. Onion rings were very good! Chicken tenders and fries tasted very old and not fresh. Service was fine but not expecting anything crazy from an order at the counter place. Outside area was under construction but I liked the ambiance otherwise!

    Love The Loop but this location and experience was subpar. Came in with my husband for lunch and we both weren't impressed with our meals. He ordered the Caesar wrap which came out almost like a kids size and way smaller than usual. I got my usual chicken tenders and unfortunately they were overcooked and the fries were cold and looked like they'd been sitting for a long time despite it being busy lunch rush. They are renovating the patio so it was very busy inside and every seat was taken but food still came out fast. The loop is one of our favorite lunch places in Jax so hoping our next experience will be better with quality of food served.

    Not sure how they stay in business. Just ordered a Greek salad to go. $11.50. It is tiny with hardly anything in it.

    Quality food and a friendly staff... the five cheese pizza and walnut gorgonzola salad are usually both on point.

Was struggling with nausea, and was trying to soothe…read moremyself with something that I could eat doused in their bad for me garlic sauce I crave sometimes. Personally I don't usually eat Papa Johns, as I feel their pizza is subpar. So I was already hesitantly giving them business. I ordered a LG pizza online applied the 50% coupon, (regular price is $22.99, so that brought my amount to $11.50). When I walked up to pick up my prepaid order (on Wednesday), there was a huge clearly posted sign on the store window. Wacky Wednesday 1 LG pizza $9.99. That means I overpaid for MY pizza (If I knew of this special, I would have selected it from the app). I requested that they fix my $ amt, and refund my money since this special was not online. They said pizza is pre-paid. Which I said.. I know. They said it would make their register weird, and they were not refunding me. I have worked customer service before... I know a manager can make a price adjustment on an order. It might be a hassle, but they can do it. Dude just kept pushing back, and insisted he would not make things right. I told him that's horrible customer service, and he shrugged. I said I'm not okay with that, and won't be returning. He said.. Eh.. Good Luck with that. I will be contacting corporate. This is unacceptable. It's the principal of the thing. I will never eat Papa Johns again. If I'm in a social meetup, or business meeting and they ask for input about which pizza co to order from... I will always NOT choose Papa Johns. (The pizza was okay)

The day of the…read moreparty we called and we were told that they did not have our order, even though we spoke to someone and confirmed everything from the date, time, location, and price. So I called another Papa John's thinking we might have called the wrong location and they said they didn't have the order. I called back the Palencia location multiple times and never heard back at all. We called probably about 10 times from my phone and my husband's, no answer, and yes the store was open. Very disappointed, and felt like they intentionally ignored our calls. We ended up getting pizza from Jersey Slice and they were great. Never using this papa John's again for any occasion, lesson learned!

She was patient and very helpful as well. I ordered a bacon and mushroom pizza. My go to pizza. The places is simple: ovens, slice station, and the prep counter. Exactly what's needed for a pizza place. The mural on the wall listed the 5 boroughs and had the Brooklyn Bridge, as well as the Statue of Liberty. I mean, New York is there. The pizza came out fast and I got back. Here's the thing: Florida is notorious for having lackluster pizza. There's no ways around it. The pizza was cooked perfectly, thin, and a thicker crust. Perfect for folding. The sauce: not too loose and not too thin. Good amount for pizza, regardless of location. Flavor wise, not bad. Cheese and toppings had the right amount so it could incorporate into every bite. Now going back to my statement on Florida pizza. It's better than other Floridian pizzas I've had. It scratched the itch and I definitely enjoyed it. They'll get my business when I come back to Jacksonville!

It should not smell burnt when you open the box. Very little cheese was like eating none at all. It's very sad and I gave them three chances to see if it was a fluke.....it wasn't.

They're located at 3787 Palm Valley Road in Ponte Vedra Beach. We started with the Arancini. There were two things that surprised us about it. First, it was way lighter than we expected which ended up being a good thing. I almost voted against it as an appetizer because it's usually a heavy app but I was happy with how light their take is. The other thing is that we were both surprised by was peas being included. Then again, its been a long time since we've had this app so that could be more common than we remember. I ordered Chicken Marsala which came with another surprise, in a very good way. Maybe it's just me but I find that a lot of places go way too sweet with the sauce on this dish. There certainly was a sweet taste to theirs but not overly so. More like a hint, which was good by me. The portion size was very big. So much so that I took half home for lunch the following day. The noodles were VERY good too. I'm no expert so I can't say for sure if they make them there but it certainly tasted like they might. My wife ordered a 12" Hot Honey Hustler Pizza. She's had variants of this type of pizza at a few places around town over the past year. She's actually had to kind of piece it together more than anything by ordering hot honey on the side or adding other things on. So she was excited to see they offer it like she wanted it right out of the gate. She said when you look at the photos you'll probably think it's too much on a pizza but it's not. When you eat it, it's actually well balanced. She liked the quality of the crust too. She took about 3/4 of the pie home, so she'll have some great lunch tomorrow as well. Like I said, we rarely get down to Ponte Vedra but we had a reason to be down there tonight so I'm glad we remembered to stop in at Vincenzo's while we were in the area. Definitely a solid choice for anyone who might be near them. A version of this review originally appeared in the Jacksonville Fun, Eats & Drinks Facebook group.

Vincenzo's is an ideal location. We enjoyed the How ya doin pizza and great service from Gina. Pricing is reasonable, dinner averaged about $25 per person all in, including tip, tax, drinks and a 3% credit card surcharge. Overall, this is wonderful tasting pizza at a reasonable price in a beautiful setting. We'll certainly be back.

Walked in, plenty of tables available at least 6 tables and 2 bench 4 seat tables The pizza came out really quick... Almost like they were prepared before us even ordering. After waiting 20 mins to speak to the only server, the price of 2 pizza, one regular pep and one of their house special closed top pizza, both 16 in, the price was $60 with water for drinks. The pizzas came out in 15 mins max.... The pepperoni was good, and the cheese was ok. The house special ground beef pizza taste more like green peppers and halved garlic cloves than anything else. Both were mediocre at best. I can say, that I did enjoy the style of the closed top, which we may try this place once more, and try the closed top as their chicken Alfredo. Btw, the closed top cooked better the next day in the oven. Bottom and top both crisps up like it should have been initially. Overall, not worth the price, but I will try once more just to confirm. I don't live close to this place. At least a 45 minute drive. Fell for my wife's Instagram ad, which I usually ignore.
