Bristol is the halfway point when traveling to an annual family outing. J Frank was rated so well on Trip Advisor that we decided to try it out. It was Fabulous!!! We had seating in the outdoor dining area, it was a delightful evening. There were 2 couples and we started with drinks & small plates. Two had gin martinis, one a vodka martini, & I had a vodka gimlet. Since I wasnât driving I had a second one. Yummy & cheers for all. The appetizers we shared were crab hushpuppies & salmon dip. These were very good. For our entree each couple ordered the Chilean Sea Bass & split. There was a slight split fee & well worth it. This might have been one of the tastiest pieces of fish my husband & I have had. It was cooked to perfection. The cherry tomato risotto it was served over was delicious. Our shared sides were Brussels sprouts & pimento cheese grits. I love cheese grits & these were oh so very good. The chef has a key lime cake that we shared for dessert. It was very good. We made friends with the people sitting at the next table & they were telling us about the restaurant & itâs owner, Jason. As we were leaving my brother in law, who has to use a walker, was having a hard time with his neuropathy & difficultly walking. The 3 of us were helping him to the sidewalk when the nicest gentleman offered us assistance. It turns out that he was Jason, the owner of J Frank. Thank you for your help. We will definitely be back to eat at J Frank on our next trip to Bristol. I highly recommend you give J Frank a try.

This place has the best seafood dinners and service!!! I can't believe that I have lived in Bristol my entire life and have never eaten here! I am very picky about my seafood and it was cooked EXACTLY the way I love it! The chef even came to see if it was to my liking! Best customer service I have had in a very long time!!

Stopped here after a long scenic drive. It was late and we were hungry. Tiffany took good care of us. The lobster and shrimp plank with sausage was very good. I adored the cheese biscuits. A good experience. We're glad to hear you received amazing service at our Red Lobster! Thanks for the kudos!

5. Long John Silver's
Reviewed By Southernnow
Stopped here as it was close to our hotel; haven't been to a Long John Silver's in a long time. Fish was good; fried quickly in hot oil; nice crispy crust with no breading. Vidalia onion rings were awesome; Mitzi the mgr came to our table and told us she grows them in her own garden! I would stop here again just to enjoy those Vidalia onion rings and chat again with Mitzi - she's a sweetheart!
