Island Breeze Cafe 3000 Dunn Avenue, Jacksonville, FL 32218

"This place stands out among so many Jamaican restaurants. The food is consistently delicious, they serve Jamaican as well as other dishes, and the service is pleasant and friendly; but that’s not all, it’s a full sit down restaurant and bar! Plus, there’s fun entertainment on given nights and an overall come in, sit down and enjoy atmosphere."

"Yall this place is absolutely amazing, so I went to sign up for the gym, cause well I love food, so time to lose some weight, but I walked out from the gym and completely forgot island breeze cafe was right down from it, so I had to go and get me some ox tail, now that I'm in Callahan I needed to find me a place that compared to Irie diner and potter house, y'all this place in my opinion tops both of them, the flavor and tenderness of the ox tail was ON Point, the rice and peas was excellent and cabbage was so good. Yall have got to check it out. There was so much food."

"This is a Jamaican restaurant so although they do have a few other items, please not that Jamie food is the primary cuisine served. The menu is hefty, and yhete are plenty of things to choose from. So let me just state up front that I completely forgot to take pictures of the majority of my food. When I arrived I was starving. I hadn't eaten all day (unintentionally), so I wasn't even thinking about photos until much later. I did manage to get one photo of my Breezy Shrimp. They were delicious. If you need a reference, think Bang Bang Shrimp, but it's slightly different. Other items that were ordered were beef patties, rice and peas w/ oxtail gravy, and the wings. I wanted all flats w/ sweet and tangy sauce. Please note that there is an upcharge for all flats. All of the food was hot, fresh, and delicious. I also ordered several rum punch and a Ja'Mosa, which is their version of a mimosa. Drinks were absolutely phenomenal and strong. The environment was nice, chil, and inviting. They had a good R&B mix playing in the background. All of the wait staff were very friendly and accommodating. The place was clean as well. It's located in a plaza so there PLENTY of free parking. They have karaoke on Wednesday, Happy Hour on Thursdays from 5 - 7 PM, and brunch on Saturdays. I definitely plan to return."

"Island Breeze Cafe stands out for its exceptional Jamaican cuisine, surpassing any other experiences I've had with this flavorful cuisine. The generous portions ensure you leave satisfied, and the taste of each dish is nothing short of delicious. The commitment to freshly prepared food adds a touch of authenticity, though the short wait only heightens the anticipation for the culinary delights to come. It's a testament to their dedication to serving top-notch, quality meals. Beyond the food, the warm and inviting atmosphere created by the owners and staff elevates the dining experience. Their genuine hospitality and personable approach contribute to making patrons feel like cherished guests. If there were an option to rate Island Breeze Cafe beyond the conventional scale, I would easily grant it a perfect 10 stars. This restaurant not only excels in delivering exquisite Jamaican flavors but also in creating a memorable and enjoyable dining ambiance."
