    First time here and enjoyed sitting by the water. Fish and chips were very good but portion was a little on the small side. Friendly staff and reasonable prices. Even had a visit from a friendly gator. Nice place.

    What a cool spot this was. I was in town burning some time waiting for my evening flight when I stopped in here right at opening. The bartender and the hostess both made me feel right at home and were personable and friendly. I had a couple Guinness beers and tried the Grouper Po'Boy which was incredible. I finished this up with a piece of Rum Cake which was equally as good. I had never heard of the spot or been here, but I told my Wife when I got home it should be one of our regular spots when we visit the Jacksonville area. The staff, scenery, and food were all top notch.

    Outstanding service, very professional, clean, and cozy environment. All the employees were very professional and customer service was their number one priority. Penchant for excellence and commitment to service, made our visit to Pusser’s a memorable one. I loved their service, the location, the food and honestly will be coming back here again. Kyle was very attentive, quick and came back very often to check on us. This place is definitely a must. I recommend the shrimp and the oysters, they were very fresh.

    Off the bat, I was presently surprised. At first I was concerned when I entered the restaurant. I am not from the area, here for work. So this was a location we all decided on. I got the NY Strip. Absolutely delicious. The service was also on point.

    Shannon the bartender was absolutely amazing! Fast, friendly, attentive, knowledgeable about the food menu and the drinks! She recommended the fried green tomatoes, they had goat cheese, peach chutney, and bacon jam! Let me just say... they were out of this world! While my wife and I ate two other gals sat down... they were extremely nice... come to find out that they also work there... they were just there to eat. That says a lot about the place. 10 outta 10 I'd recommend this place for the food, drinks, and atmosphere!

    Great view outside on the patio. It was shady in the afternoon. I had the coconut shrimp, Sauté curry chicken and a raspberry martini. It was 3pm in the afternoon on a Monday. It was perfect because there wasn’t a lot of people. ❤️

    Came here for my wife’s birthday 5/30 and had a really relaxing time. Environment wasn’t too loud in fact a little too quiet and it was just comforting. First, my wife started off with a Bahama Mama which was nice. I didn’t think it was too overpowering and I enjoyed the taste/flavor. My wife had the Firecracker Shrimp “Sweet, fresh, and crispy shrimp tossed in a chili cream sauce.” Now personally I did not try one but my wife loved them. She said they tasted really fresh and didn’t disappoint. Myself had the Calypso Fish Tacos (Grouper) “Southwest seared grouper topped with firecracker slaw, pico de gallo, and cheese. Served with tropical sticky rice, sour cream, and sofrito.” Now this was sooo good. I really enjoyed the sticky rice and the group was cooked perfectly. All the flavors were fantastic in this dish. This place was really a good little spot for date night. The service was good and the waitress was very attentive.

    For 7 years I avoided this place because of the name…but it was the only open location on Thanksgiving and I’m so glad I finally tried it! The location is spacious and staff very friendly! (Carter was awesome!) they served a limited holiday menu and everything that we ate was delicious. Only complaint was the crab dip (it was more of a queso with one bite of crab). Other than that, we enjoyed our lunch! Definitely will return!

    Really nice bar and restaurant tucked away in Ponte Vedra. Beautiful outside bar with live music on the weekend. Oh and the food…Must get the coconut rum shrimp and the fresh mozzarella, tomato and avocado salad.

    The food at Pussers is consistent for what it is. They don't try anything out of their wheelhouse...and I'm cool with that. The drinks are always great! And the staff is polite and knowledgeable.

    Pusser's always has a great atmosphere, great food, and wonderful service. Matthew is the best server! We had the crab dip appetizer, and it was delicious! I like to try shrimp and grits almost everywhere that serves them and the flavor was amazing. The St. Lucia Seafood Pasta had a great white wine sauce. The upstairs was booked for a private party, but we could still hear the music downstairs on the deck while enjoying a great water view and breezy weather.

    Live around the corner from this place and have been wanting to try it out. Came in on a Sunday, which they have daily drink specials. We got the 5 dollar goombay smash and red sangria. Which were great deals. Just came it for an app between grocery shopping and orders two apps. Ordered Country Fritter, which were super fresh and as a hush puppy critter lover I enjoyed them. The coconut shrimp app was cool. Shrimp were not the best but the chutney that comes along with it was amazing. Cool place, decent prices, good service, great atmosphere. Definitely coming back!

    Recently, my friends and I decided to check out this place. We picked a Sunday to visit, taking advantage of their daily drink specials. We opted for the $5 Goombay Smash and Red Sangria, both of which turned out to be fantastic deals.😍 We ordered the Country Fritter, and as a lover of hush puppies, I found them super fresh and delightful. The Coconut Shrimp app was interesting, the chutney that accompanied it was absolutely amazing. The place had a cool vibe, reasonable prices, good service, and a great atmosphere. Needless to say, we're definitely planning to come back! And, oh, don't even get me started on the Lava frozen drink – it's epic! We'll definitely be back. The food was great, the location and views outstanding. The interior seating made us feel quite private, and the prices were reasonable. This place has left us looking forward to our next visit.🌟👌

    I had my in-laws visiting and wanted to go somewhere there was seafood and other offerings for the less fish-inclined. Upon arriving, we were taken to two tables put together near the water. One of the tables lost its towel keeping level, and we had to readjust it ourselves. There were many working tables that we were not taken to. The umbrellas were just stacked at the bottom of the ramp behind our table and an eye sore. One of the electrical cords looking out at the water was cut and not taped off. Our server took our drink order but brought my drink in a styrofoam cup and my son's drink in a glass. Even when he saw I was drinking from my kiddie cup and needed a refill, I got the kiddie cup back vice an adult glass. He proceeded to drop and break my 9 old's drink and covered him from head to toe in iced tea. The server did not bring extra napkins or use a rag to help us clean my kid or the table top. He only picked up the glass from the floor. He apologized. We stayed despite everything so far. Everyone got their food. As I was taking pictures for this post, I caught a hair in my son's plain burger and fries (can be seen on fry near bun). We get it sent back but ended up having to get it to-go since we were done eating by then. The mashed potatoes were bland. The oysters were fresh and delicious. The lobster roll was decent but could have used more seasoning. The shrimp tasted more burnt than coconut. The burger was good with crisp bacon. The fries were the best part out of anyone's meal. The server ended up comping my son's burger. This was definitely a disappointment compared to the Annapolis Pussers or any other place. I would not recommend this place to anyone.

    Nice waterview restaurant with affordable lunch options. Sunny on the patio, but they'll put up an umbrella if you ask. Time limited ample free parking in the office park lot.

    The food is very good! We had artichoke dip for an appetizers I didn't care for it but my husband liked it...too many onions for me. I had coconut shrimp and my husband had shrimp and grits very very good. Portion size was good, big shrimp, not greasy for being deep fried with mine and the shrimp and grits were very good as well, good size portion, grits were really good my husband said and the shrimp were cooked perfect. Very friendly staff, we sat at the bar this time and everyone was very helpful with suggestions on their favorite dishes to get and checked on us often. We went on Mother's day and it was really busy and we were fortunate enough to get to sit at the bar. I've had the fish and chips as well, also very good.

    A nice place but the food was pretty average. We had the crab dip as an appetizer but didn’t taste any crab. Their chips were stale which didn’t help. We wanted steamed oysters but they only had raw. I ordered shrimp tacos and they were smothered in their mayo sauce which I didn’t care for. Could be good but this trip was meh

    My surf and turf combo, ahi poke crisp and Palm Valley Burger, is worth a stop near Sawgrass. The poke could be a meal in itself. Plenty of tuna in crisp greens and the crunchy wontons provide a balance to the dish. The burger is a two-hander and the pimento cheese, bacon and onion rings meld together for one tasty burger that will have you saying, "What!" I added some sliced pickles to top it all off.

    Was intown for a work conference. We had the cuban sandwich, mojito and the cheese cake. All are really good and would recommend. The cheese cake was really good.

    Went for Thanksgiving. 40 bucks for turkey and sides. Sides came in small cups normally reserved for ketchup or salad dressing. We asked waitress after we were nearly finished if the meal came with rolls. She said "oh I could have brought you rolls." It was Dessert wasn't included either. Young staff more concerned with their phones. Weird that kitchen door is open as you walk out of dining area.

    I've been for a chamber event and a Florida State game before and it's always packed and fun. Basic but tasty bar food. Always excellent service. Made it a business lunch meeting spot recently and got the special lobster roll. Literally the best I've had south of Maine. Perfect portion and the lobster was excellent and fresh. Highly recommend.
