Mimosa
Jill C.

The food here is top notch and amazing. The service is great as well. Lee is fab x 10. Bottomless mimosas are amazing.

Rachel M.

Went for drag brunch and tried the bottomless mimosas. In my opinion, these mimosas are huge and well worth the $20 if you can drink that much! I also got a burger which was good, half of it did slip out of my hand onto the floor but it was good nonetheless! The brunch boards looked amazing, I would recommend trying that and wish that I did. Would visit again!

Phenomenal brunch experience on a Friday morning with my hubby! I specifically came here because I wanted scrambled eggs and they have the best in town. I got the Go Jags plate which included two scrambled eggs, bacon, sausage link and a biscuit and gravy! Everything was made to perfection, eggs were soft and fluffy and the biscuit was made from scratch. My husband got the Family Affair which is a crispy chicken biscuit sandwich with gravy and scrambled eggs with a side of fruit. My husband demolished his meal. Our waitress, Sharricka, was so swift and attentive. We will definitely be coming back!

Tulua Bowl made hot and fresh
Tiffany B.

I had an early morning appointment that ended before I had to start work, so I decided to treat myself to a weekday brunch - a rare opportunity for me. I'm so glad I decided on Tula Bistro! There was lively music playing and it was a great vibe inside. I sat at the bar and was helped by Brian, who was amazing. I ordered a coffee and the Tulua Bowl. The coffee was hot and fresh, and the bowl was cooked very well with fresh ingredients. The grits in the bowl did not have a lot of flavor, however the fresh toppings definitely helped and made it a solid dish. Overall I had a great weekday brunch and the vibe from the music and Brian sent me off to work in an upbeat mood.

5 stars again!! Our food was great!! We love Tulua Bistro!! We had a taste for some good brunch, so we checked Yelp and Tulua came up, the ambiance was amazing, the music was good, we love art work on the walls. The service was good, our server was great. We will be back.

Inside

We came during the week so the vibe isn't as lively however the service never disappoints! We had Kriscinda as our server and she was beyond amazing. She made the drinks also! Whatever we needed she accommodated us. Her vibe was very kind and friendly. We'll be back for sure !!!

First off, the welcoming energy was fantastic there were lovely murals of famous figures who were amazing to be around. Secondly the food was fantastic, best seasonings around and the mimosas were very tasty. I recommend anyone to go here for brunch!!

Overcooked turkey sausage
Carm H.

After looking at reviews online I couldn't wait to try the food. What a complete disappointment. The food was mediocre at best. The biscuits were hard and dried out. After complaining about the 1st one, the waiter brought me another one and it was dry and crumbling in the center. Before I could say anything the customer behind me stopped the waiter and complained about the same thing. He brought her another biscuit as well and I heard her tell him that it was just as bad as the other one. The waiter stated he would advise the kitchen and blamed the biscuits on overheating. The problem is they weren't fresh, they were old. My grits were watered down with no flavor. My bacon was barely cooked and the turkey sausage was overcooked. At 1st I thought it was me, but I heard the customer behind me tell her daughter that it was the worst meal she has had and would need to purchase another meal when they felt. She indicated that the only positive was that her 3 year old daughter enjoyed the pancakes. I turned around and said to her that my meal was awful as well and that I too would have to stop at another location for food. To add insult to injury, this place adds 18% gratuity to all checks regardless of the size of your party. I did not realize it until I got my check. I was told that they place this message at the very bottom of the menu. I missed it. Anyway, for the price of the food you can eat at so many other breakfasts places. I'm headed to faithful Metro Diner. Also, the wait time for food was ridiculously slow. There were only 4 customers beside myself and we all walked in at the same time. By the time I received my food, the 1st two customers had eaten and were leaving

This cute little bistro definitely had some Fun pizzaz to it and the food was delicious as well. Located at Jacksonville Beach 3rd street at the south beach center. Inside- Cute murals on wall and woke culture implemented. I thought the names of the menu items were fun as well. I loved the quote from Ru Paul that states ' If you can't love yourself, how the hell are you gonna love somebody else?! . Menu items such as slutty potatoes, wake and bake, not your basic bi*ch had me chuckle. Food- I ordered the crab cake Benedict. Very delicious! The crab cake was tender and flavorful with the hollandaise sauce and side of grits on an English muffin. The grits were creamy as well. Service was attentive and they answered any questions asked. They also have bottomless mimosas from 8 am to 2 pm. Overall, definitely a fun place to try.

Everything Platter
Gabi Y.

What a cute brunch spot! Came here with some friends and we got the mystery breakfast platter to share. It had just about everything you could think of for breakfast items, and it was yummy! I would love to try the drag brunch soon!

K R.

We stopped in for a quick bite. The staff was running around because they were trying to accommodate large groups coming in to eat. The coffee was delicious! The decor is fun and bright. I had the veggie bowl served over grits and it was a large portion and flavorful. The omelette lacked substance and filler. The toast options are very limited. I would give this place a second chance but I wasn't wowed.

Lou B.

I had such a fun time here! The breakfast boards are creative and presented so epically. I would recommend for a special occasion and can't wait to go back for a drag brunch. Heads up: your entire party must be present to be seated.

Do they take reservations?

No - you have to be present to put your name on the list.

How many people will the large breakfast board feed?

I would say easily 6 to 8 adults . When I went there only four of us and there were a lot of leftovers.

Do they have bottomless mimosas?

Yes! Last time we checked.

The wait was around 20-30 mins and we were seated on the patio, the place was packed and super busy, so it's a bit loud to try to have conversation. The staff were great and the menu had a great vegan section too. It was a bit cold on the patio, so we started with some hot lattes which was decent. Also got pancakes & bacons, vegan mexicali wrap and size of haus fried (potatoes cubes). Portion size was huge, we could only finish half the food. Everything was delicious & if you get the vegan mexicali wrap, 100% would recommend trying with the hot sauce with it. Food and staff were great, but I am not sure if it was worth 20-30 mins wait and the hassle of parking. Would definitely go back but will not be a regular place for us!

There is free valet parking and a dinner self parking spots. There is indoor and outdoor seating. We usually choose to eat indoors but when the weather is good the outdoor seating is wonderful! I find the bar area too loud compared to the rest of the indoor seat, but would never pass a table up if it was offered. They are closed on Mondays and some days wait times can be extra long. We try to time it out so we are going in-between the typical meal times - that is usually when we have had the best experiences. Our last visit was Sunday and we arrived around 4:30. We like to call this time Linner. We were sat in less than 10 mins while they arranged tables for us. We had 11 people and separate checks. We were celebrating my niece's sweet 16. We did not announce it as she would hate the attention so we did not take advantage of the dessert they usually offer. Our waiter, Michael W, was AMAZING! He was attentive but did not hover. He was observent and kept our drinks and chips filled. We ordered a several different items from the menu but the favorites was the queso and the $10 tacos. They offer several gluten free options. Everything was tasty and made to our preference or allergy needs. We even placed a take away order so we could enjoy it all again later.

First things first: get the fresh squeezed orange juice. It is absolutely incredible and worth the visit alone. The menu is fantastic and they have everything you could want for breakfast. If you're in the mood for comfort food, the biscuits and gravy are phenomenal, some of the best I've had. But they also nail all the classics , French toast, bacon, eggs, you name it. I do have to be honest as a coffee lover, the coffee was a letdown for me. Neither the hot brewed nor the cold brew impressed, so if you're picky about your coffee you may want to manage expectations there. Stick to that fresh OJ though and you won't be sad about it! One major bonus, the restaurant is really big with a lot of seating,and we went on weekdays without ever waiting for a table. In a breakfast spot, that's a big deal. Overall a really solid, reliable breakfast spot. We'll be back next time we're in Jacksonville.
