Reviews for Uptown Kitchen And Bar in Jacksonville, FL

Been to this establishment twice. The first time was a Sunday afternoon and the place was packed. The second time was on a... Tuesday around 2pm and it was fairly empty. If you go during peak times, parking may be a challenge and you may have to wait fora table. I sat outside on my second visit and was greeted by a passerby. No matter the time or day, the food was really good.This could easily be one of my favorite places to eat based on the quality of the food and the fast and friendly service. Read more

The food was decent but I believe the kitchen was swamped. I really liked the drink menu which had a different selection of... things you can have in the morning, including multiple options for mimosas. Our waitress was awesome. The only thing I wish isthat a food was better. Read more

This was my second time visiting and I brought a new group of friends. We enjoyed everything! Last time I came at 10 and there... was quite a wait (it was well worth it). This time we got there at 9 and the 5 of us were seated right away and we found parkingright behind the restaurant. So arriving earlier on Sunday did pay off! In addition to their regular menu they do serve variousdaily specials. That day they had the lobster omelette which my friend said was moist and yummy. They also had salmon and gritswhich was very flavorful. Also the fish and shrimp croquettes were perfect packet with flavor and the perfect amount of crunchand moisture! I love this breakfast place! I?m from atl but when I?m in town this is my Sunday brunch spot! They also have $20mimosa buckets which include a bottle of champagne, orange juice, cranberry juice, strawberry syrup, and peach syrup that youcan add yourself. The chef also comes around and checks on all the guests to make sure we are satisfied with our orders which isso nice! If you have not come here, what are you waiting for? Come eat and fill your bellies with some prime eat! Read more

First if you haven?t been here don?t think twice. You must go. The food was so good haven?t had food that so fresh and favorable... as this place. The service was excellent. I do suggest going early on the weekend. This place is good and people know it. Soit?s a crowded at times. If I could would give this place 10 stars. And I will be back once I travel into Jacksonville again. Read more

Visiting Jacksonville and found this place online. While sitting at the bar I heard someone say that they had a new chef at the... restaurant and that the food was much better than before. I can say that it didn?t disappoint. The service was also good. I hadthe fried catfish and grits. Only I would add is more of the sauce they put on top, but the bartender brought me extra. I wentduring the week so I didn?t wait and there was plenty of street parking. I?ll be back next time I?m in town. Read more

Was visiting Jacksonville and heard about this spot. The wait was crazy on Dec. 31st. ( 1.5 hours at 11:30am). We waited and it... was well worth it. Being that it was one of the busiest weekends of the year they had run out of Oxtails. Oh how I wasdisappointed. Our waiter recommended the Shrimp and Grits with a piece of Salmon! The flavor was amazing and the the Gouda gritswere on point. I would definitely recommend this place if you are in the Jax Area. Read more
