My husband is an ice cream officianoto. So he had to try Christy’s Dream. They offer homemade ice cream in many flavors made with high quality liqueurs. He went for “The Average Joe” - two scoops of chocolate. His main concern was that it was just too rich. He had difficulty finishing it.

Tucked in a shopping center this is a very nice, very friendly Starbucks. Usual coffee choices along with pastries and other goodies. Inside tables but it seems to heavy on take out. Best of all it carries the New York Times and the Wall Street Journal.

Reviewed By HokieGal30 - Albany, New York
Casual dining with great food. Lots of choices of fresh fish and shellfish with 'down home' sides. Butter beans and pickles taste like mom's! Lunch or dinner work well! Friendly staff added to our experience. Only suggestion would be to offer full belly clams instead of clam strips to keep them of the good quality of the other entrees.

My wife and I had breakfast here and my meal of ham steak, eggs over medium, home fries with onions and english muffin was excellent. My wife had bacon (over cooked), scrambled eggs, hash browns and biscuit. All but the bacon were very good. Service was excellent. Next time will ask that the bacon be cooked medium and not be pressed as the later dries out the bacon and makes it hard.

Trasca Eatery mainly serves something called a panino (not to be confused with a panini). The panino is basically a cross between a calzone and a wrap: A pizza dough wrapped around a variety ingredients. Menu options include varieties of chicken, Turkey, pork, veggie, cheesesteak, and Reuben. However, I ordered the Spaghetti Pie Panino which was recommended by the staff. This dish was a guilty pleasure. The soft baked dough was wrapped around savory spaghetti and a mound of melty mozzarella cheese. The panino was topped with sweet and flavorful marinara sauce. Essentially a mound of starch, cheese, and sauce that will make you want to take a nap shortly after eating. I was also fortunate enough to stop in during BOGO Craft Beer (5 to 7pm daily) in which they had local Jacksonville area selections on tap. It was a very nice way to wash the panino down.

The best thing about this restaurant is the service is always very efficient and pleasant. The food at breakfast is very good. My wife enjoyed her western omelet although thought her home fries were slightly overcooked. Note that you only get one slice of toast with this meal. I had the ham steak (adequate size), eggs over medium and home fries with onions. All was very good tasting. Service was outstanding. Meal is not cheap as above with one cup of coffee and tip was $29.
9. Eleven South Bistro

Went with friends and Eleven South was excellent. The starters -- short rib spring rolls, grilled octopus and salads -- were all wonderful. My rack of lamb was cooked perfectly and had a nice presentation. Also, very tender. Our friends ordered the scallops and the double pork chop and they said these dishes were wonderful and also cooked to perfection. They have a good wine list -- very versatile. We did opt to sit outside on the closed-in area, being slightly chilly, but we all brought sweaters since NE Florida in winter can be cold. Inside was much too loud, but a lot of restaurants inside are noisy these days. When we walked in, we were greeted by a very happy and gracious maitre 'd (or maybe he is the owner -- have to ask next time), which was nice. Not so serious, encouraging us to have fun. Our server, Johnny, was very attentive and helpful with the ordering. We loved it. And the food was delicious. Not "same old, same old." We'll be back,over and over again.

There were four of us in the group and all of our meals were delicious and came out perfectly timed so as to be able to enjoy each course. We had two orders of linguini Bolognese, one chicken picata and one baked ravioli and we split a side of meatballs. All in the group loved the garlic bread and our house or Caesar salads. And we each had a glass of their house wine, which is very good for a house wine. Victoria provided very friendly and prompt service. While the exterior is strip mall, the interior atmosphere is very warm and pleasant. This remains our favorite Italian restaurant in the area.
