Bellwether

4.75Random Tuesday eve before a show. Environment- Clean, open, modernService- Sat at the bar, the bartender was awesome, good convo.Drinks- Delicious, she made her own recipe up that we opted to try- gin, rosemary, cherries.Food- We split the poutine and Bellweather salad. Poutine came out first, good but wish there was more gravy (and assuming we could have asked). Thinner fries. Salad- super flavorful and delicious- fresh.Will be back.

We visited bellwether on a Thursday night. They gave us a table in their private room because there were 18 of us, which was awesome! It can be hard traveling for conferences because we can't always book ahead, but these guys were very friendly and accommodating and actually seated us after their last seating which was incredibly kind of them.We started with a few appetizers, including the poutine which was super tasty. I also got the shoestring fries with truffle and Parmesan, and while they were good fries, I felt they didn't have quite enough seasoning.For mains, I got the ginger miso carrot salad. The portion was good for dinner, and the ingredients were fresh. It was really a great salad (coming from someone who doesn't usually order salads as mains). A lot of my colleagues got smash burgers which they said were good, and someone got their special which was a steak burger, and that looked amazing. I would've considered a burger, but I had a hard time justifying 20 dollars for a double smash burger. I think this place has everything it needs to be great, but I think that they're a little on the simple-yet-overpriced side at the moment. Nothing on their menu was overly interesting or special. That being said, it's a nice place and the service was great.

The food has a Korean southern comfort fusion feel to me.We went for an early dinner and there were many Korean-fusion options on the menu, but also southern comfort foods.The server was excellent, the restaurant had a farmhouse industrial type of decor and the food came out quickly and tasted great. Delicious pineapple bread pudding topped with coconut ice cream!

My coworker and I wanted to try something different for lunch. We walked here and was pleasantly surprised. The service and food was great. I had the single burger sheep style. I added bacon. The tots were great. The burger was fantastic and the bacon is thick style country bacon. My coworker ordered the truffle fries. I would return for those alone. I I'll definitely visit again to try something different.

We needed a place near the stadium for dinner before opening night for the Jacksonville Icemen hockey game. Obviously, it's not really that close to the arena but close enough for an early dinner and still time to make the first puck drop. I opted for the sheep style burger with truffle and Parmesan tater tots. Perfect flavor profile (think In-N-Out animal style) and those tots were bangin'. I dumped the fresh and perfectly crispy tots out of the silver cup onto my plate and it was a way bigger serving than I anticipated. Our server was on point - friendly and attentive. We decided to split a dessert and chose the hummingbird bread pudding. Trust me when I say save room for this creation. DEEP FRIED - yes, all CAPS - bread pudding, salted caramel sauce, coconut ice cream, and toasted coconut crumble. Best dessert I've had in a long time but I will confess I'm a big fan of coconut. My only critique is that Bellwether is not closer to my house. If you need someplace to eat downtown, Bellwether should be on your short list.

Tried this restaurant for lunch with my food besties and the ambiance and food were both worth the hype. I was surprised they weren't packed due to the location and time that we arrived but I also appreciated not being overwhelmed with people since we had a baby with us. My food was light and delicious and the flavors of the fish complemented the sides well. of course we tried the desert which had an interesting spin on Cinnamon Toast Crunch. Definitely recommend checking out this place if you're in the downtown area

What a lovely place to have lunch! Madeline was an absolute sweetheart who made it such a pleasant experience. Aside from being really good at her job, she was so sweet to our toddler daughter. The interior is modern and beautifully designed and the food is to die for! I highly recommend this establishment.

Modern designs and a sleek interior. Simple. The service was fabulous. The food, ok. It's simple American foods stylized in a slightly upscale manner. I overall enjoyed the food. I would definitely go back to try the shrimp and grits because the pork belly in that dish was beautifully crispy and flavorful.

Went in around 8 pm on a Thursday night with reservations but it wasn't crowded. Service was quick a d staff was friendly.I went with the special burger of the day, it was really good! The table ordered Brussel sprouts, which were also good with a smokey mushroom taste.Quite place at the time we went, great for groups or a date night.

If you're going to the symphony or a broadway show it's walking distance from the theater and a great choice for dinner.We started the meal with boiled peanuts and tater tots. Both seeped in flavor. You're able to choose from 3 different flavor profile for the tots, we decided on their spicy version. Delicious. For mains, we had steak frites, the don don noodles with blackened chicken and their special burger for the night. I had the don don noodles and I definitely will be ordering again. It was spicy but for me it was perfect, left the spicy after burn but wasn't so hot I couldn't continue eating them. The steak was perfect cooked to order, the fries were delicious, highly recommend the Parmesan truffle, and the burger I was told was great.The service was quick, their happy hour lasts until 7pm even on a Friday and the restaurant is stylish with large format tiles, brick walls and an open concept.
