Restaurants near Holiday Inn Express Jacksonville Beach

If I could give 6 stars I would! Absolutely the best dining experience I have had in years, and it was lunch service on Christmas Eve. Jeff, our server, was outstanding. It’s rare, in fine dining these days, to fine an establishment that cares both from a culinary and service perspective. Jeff and the 11 South staff knocked it out of the park. We will be back and thanks to 11 South as you truly are a dining gem.

The food was delicious! The eggplant appetizer and the meatball appetizer were so delicious! Two of us had Lasagna and the homemade pasta and all the ingredients were so so good! It had both Bolognese and Bechemel in the Lasagna. Two others had the Tagliolini al Limone, scallops in pasta with a lemon buttery sauce with pistachio nuts was divine! The fifth person in our group had the Tagliatelle Bolognese , 2nd time this person ordered this dish, they liked it so much the first time they visited the restaurant. Service and drinks (Limoncello spritz) were great too! Would highly recommend this place.

One of the best in JAX area. Always a treat! The chefs are very creative. The Duck Confit with bread pudding was awesome.

If you are thinking of a place to go on your birthday or even an average night, COME HERE! We truly had one of the, if not THE best service experiences of our lives (not to be dramatic). Mario, our server, deserves a raise and a promotion. He made my birthday one of the most special days by playing along with all the birthday surprises, sending us some specialty sushi on the house, catering to my friend’s dietary restrictions with us barely having to tell him, being quick and efficient, selling excellent recommendations, and just being hilarious. The sushi here is SO fresh and unique, the drink list was overflowing with options of beer, wine, and delicious craft cocktails, and the atmosphere was intimate yet lively and fun! There’s a rooftop area as well as a downstairs portion with a huge window that makes the place feel much bigger than it is. Everyone here was so kind and really made this day amazing. Cheer !

Absolutely loved The Refinery! This was our first time eating here and we chose the Refined Dining. We loved everything about our experience from our great Server, Michael to the excellent food and the view. Perfection! We will definitely be back.
