J.l.trent's Seafood Grill

Stunning about this jewel, while in Jacksonville my father visited the hospital. I had the record where you chose 3 items. I had the scallops, shrimps and crushed crabs. I had Slav and cheese as sides. Very good! The whole food was fabulous. The service was great. The atmosphere is cool. And the cats outside are very nice and friendly. We even packed a bowl out of the oyster pot to come to my father so he could have something better than hospital dinner.

Visiting my son, he just transferred from San Diego to Naval Air Station Jacksonville. This is the closest restaurant that isn't on base. Very unassuming, mom and pop looking dive with great food, friendly service and fair prices. First ate here on a Friday evening, had the stuffed flounder, son had the sampler with haddock, shrimp and scallops. Unlike other seafood places, you can get most offerings fried or grilled/broiled. Liked so much that we made a point to go back in a few days. Better yet, picked up some groceries at the nearby Winn-Dixie and found a buy one entree, get 50 percent off the second on the back of our receipt. Saved a little money and had a little quicker service on the following Tuesday. Highly recommend to anyone that loves great seafood and low country style southern hospitality. Will return on future visits with more family members, can't wait ! Keep up the great work y'all !!!

At the first visit of this place. It was definitely a good experience. Our appetizer consisted of Peel and Eat Shrimp we ordered it hot as suggested by our server. It was pretty good. Messy? Yes, absolutely! I chose Fried Shrimp as my entree and had a side salad and a baked potato to accompany my dish. It was pretty good! Very friendly staff, clean installations, tasteful food and decent prices.

We've been here for years. This is our favorite seafood restaurant in the area. It's okay. Always a kitty or 3 on the front porch. Very recommended.

I went a few years ago and was not impressed. I'm so glad I left. Your food was amazing! Great food and great atmosphere. The servers were friendly and helpful. Make yourself a favor and try the green. They're fantastic!
