I’ve been to Riverside countless times but I’ve never gotten a chance to eat here. I’m finally glad I was able to last weekend. We went on a Sunday night and it was the best time to go. The Sunday rush was over so we were seated immediately and our server gave us full attention since there were only a few tables left inside. The menu has so much variety it took a minute for me to decide what to have for dinner. I decided to get calamari to start. The calamari is very good! The breading is just right and the inside wasn’t over cooked as some places tend to do. Our table decided to order the Rice Bowl with salmon and a French dip sub chicken and everything came out at a decent time and tasted delicious! Our server was very helpful in helping us make our decisions and made the experience very pleasant. Guess I’ll be back for happy hour!

Hit up Brick in Avondale for lunch with some friends, and man, we were all pretty stoked about our choices. Those shrimp and grits? Spot on. Creamy grits paired with shrimp that were just full of flavor. And the bread pudding for dessert? Just the right touch of sweetness. The place had this laid-back atmosphere which was perfect for a midday catch-up. If you’re in Avondale around lunchtime, this place is a solid bet.

Go! The place is huge and extremely clean. The food is delicious, and the servers are salt of the earth friendly. The prices are reasonable and do leave a good tip to the servers because they deserve every penny of it. The cake slices are HUGE! What are you waiting for? Go!

The restaurant is spacious with patio door open for good ventilation. The menu has a good variety. The food tastes great and the service staff are friendly & personable. Matt was a charm.

We just had a wonderful brunch. It was a beautiful day and we sat outside. One of our friends was cold do they turned on the heater for them. The staff was very friendly and helpful. I recommend the smoked salmon Benedict and my friend had a Bloody Mary with bacon and it was fantastic.

Wonderful experience! The delicious food matches the awesome ambience. The server was very attentive with a great personality. A very good experience!

My daughter and I went for lunch recently and we really enjoyed it. I had the rib eye steak tacos that were delish but the best thing was the cole slaw! I think it has kale in it and the dressing is so creamy. A little bit of lemon flavor to it? So yummy. Atmosphere was very nice and our server was so sweet! Definitely going back to try more dishes and get that cole slaw again.

Great environment, no long wait on a Friday night after 8 PM. Staff was very attentive. The bar was busy and the game was on the tv. The presentation of the food was okay. Ordered a steak and you were able to get one side. I chose the baked potatoes. The steak was cook perfectly (red not bloody )The drinks were beautiful and very creative, the carrot cake was bland …. clean bathrooms; clean restaurant. Overall good experience ver laidback restaurant for Families, coworkers and couples just missing the wow factor.

Cool restaurant, great vibe for a nice dinner! Parking can be a little challenging, but with some patience, you can do it! Clean and spacious inside. Friendly front host. Tonight on a Thursday around 8 pm, for a party of four, there was no wait time. The restaurant was busy, but not extremely crowded. Our waiter, James, was ok. He was quick, friendly, and attentive. All of our orders came out accurately, except for one of them. We don’t like sending plates back to the kitchen, so we just dealt with it since it was something minor. The waiter did noticed the mistake, but we were already done with our plates. He apologized, we didn’t make a big deal about it! The food was very good, fresh ingredients, awesome flavor, great seasoning.

I’ve been to The Brick four times. The first two times I liked it, but the food wasn’t something I’d remember days after. That was until I tried the Goat Cheese and Beet Salad. I had that three weeks ago and can say with full conviction that I’ve thought about it every day since. I had it again tonight and it was absolutely incredible. I have dreams about this salad. My boyfriend and I also shared their soup of the day, Shrimp Bisque, and loved it. I’ll be thinking about this salad until I have the pleasure of eating it again.

We enjoyed filet mignon and a cheeseburger. The asparagus was a little undercooked, but everything else was wonderful. Very quiet on a Monday night. They have limited outdoor sidewalk tables.

We had the surf and turf Benedict, regular with grits, and a Belgium waffle. The regular were so delicious!! All our food was so tasty and fresh. Filling but not overly heavy. Highly recommend!

The wait was minimal to be seated. They are still seating every other space. The waitress was kind but didn't offer any suggestions as this was our first visit, felt a bit rushed to pick a dish. We ordered the Mediterranean salad with chicken and the rice bowl with steak. The salad was large enough to share or split for 2 portions. Both were delicious and offered a variety of tastes. Sweet tea is extra sweet. The booth we sat at had a huge hole in one seat that dipped towards the back making it uncomfortably positioned away from the table. My husband kindly switched seats with me and didn't notice the dip but he's sweet like that. Atmosphere is nice and the noise is tolerable. Parking was easy at 7pm on a Thursday evening. We were happy to pick this as a new venue for our date night. We'll be back to enjoy this place again!

I had the rice bowl with steak. It was DELICIOUS! The servers were attentive as well! Made my family and I feel welcomed coming from SC and our bellies FULL! Thank you for the Southern hospitality!

Nice restaurant great service and food was delicious. Nice outdoor seating and dog friendly.

Best shrimp & grits. It is served in a crispy shell. The grits are creamy, and the shrimp is perfectly seasoned.

Great restaurant for lunch or dinner. They have outdoor dining. The restaurant is clean including the bathrooms. I ordered the warm turkey sandwich and it was excellent. Service was excellent and all of the staff was pleasant.

Really great food and drinks. Pleasant atmosphere. The shrimp and grits are awesome! Must this place one time. 👈💯💯💯

If you are hungry after walking around historic district, thia is the great place to go and eat. Delicious food and good service. I recommend the spinach dip for appetizer and key lime pie for dessert! Thank you and stay safe.

Go! The place is extremely clean. I love the atmosphere and you can sit outside and watch pedestrians shop or enjoy the night lights. The food is delicious, best I’ve had across the country. and the servers are salt of the earth friendly. The prices are reasonable for the amount and quality of the food. The cake slices are DELISH and HUGE! Do not pass GO, GO straight to the BRICK RESTAURANT

This place is fc*n delicious.. that's, that man.. loved the food here.. 5 stars all day..

The food was so mouth watering. The crab cake and Lamb are absolutely delightful and they have a very good assortment of drinks as well. Pretty pricey but the food, drinks, and atmosphere are very great.

Everything thing I order was absolutely excellent it took a while for my food bt definitely worth the wait.. will be back!

Kryshta was the best. She served me three of the best drinks I have had in JAX. Couldn’t recommend highly enough.

The best Calamari in town! The Chef cooked it just right. Not at all chewy, but soft. The Prime Rib was amazing and the chef's cut was easy to share with my neice who loves steak. She enjoyed how soft the bites were and the marbling was perfect with just a bit of fat. Will have to come back for some more Prime. Thanks to the staff who were all very friendly. We enjoyed our brunch!

Had the poke which was called Raw Tuna on the menu. The flavors were good. Felt healthy. Good portion. The service was the best part of the experience. Always friendly faces.

Staff and food was excellent. Wish they had a bottomless option or some kind of brunch drink special but was still good just the same.

This restaurant is located in The Shoppes On Avondale, a quaint, hip and trendy area of Jacksonville. The food was delicious, the atmosphere was pleasant and our server was amazing. We had a group of 11 and they were very accommodating.

I have been to this restaurant many times and the first time I came I really enjoyed it! It does seem that the quality of the service has decreased and they gotten rid of their drink specials which is unfortunate. I typically get the frittata which I did this past weekend (and was able to order meatless). The food took forever to get to us and when it did, everyone’s food was cold. I can sympathize with the restaurant being understaffed but that didn’t seem to be the issue with multiple tables clearing out at a time. We voiced our dissatisfaction which didn’t seem to mean much. They did try to resolve the issues but not in the most hospitable way. I would say it is a good place to eat, just hope you get a attentive waitress/waiter!

The rack of lamb and sweet chile sauce with asparagus is so delicious, as well as the loaded shrimp and grits. I think the asparagus is the best I've ever tasted at any restaurant I've ordered from. I definitely wish I could have ordered a plate of asparagus to go.
