    My husband and I moved to Jax six months ago and I regret that we are just now finding this place! Recommended by a friend- and I see why! We loved the honey chicken- HOT. Everything was great from beginning to end. Great service, food, music, dessert, and drinks. We’ll be back. And we’ll bring people with us too.

    Surprisingly good. The place was mostly empty (we went during a storm) but the food and service were excellent

    My husband and I have always had a great and satisfying meal each time we have been to Gilbert’s. In fact, when we have finished our meal, we begin planning when we can return. My only complaint would be the waitress who took care of us this last time. She was not as friendly and accommodating as the wait staff we have had on our other visits. That being said, the food and cocktails, try the Seachaser, are outstanding. (Written by my wife)

    The hot chicken was great. The drinks were a complete disaster. The service was weak and disorganized. The staff was pleasant but ineffective. Love the space.
