Famous Amos Restaurant

First time trying Main Street location, use to frequent the cesery and university locations before they closed :(. Seat yourself environment, service was quick Our waitress was very pleasant and attentive Catfish was fried nice and crispy, grits were a bit salty, biscuit was a little dry had to add some jelly. Loved the sweet tea Nephew enjoyed his wagon wheel, pancakes were his fave. Would visit again to try a different breakfast option :)

The best home cooking that I remember from all of the FA's. I used to frequent the one in Arlington and in Lakewood with my Dad on a regular basis for as long as I remember. Ernie picked me up from my cruise at Jaxport. I told him, "pull over and we can have breakfast, my treat"! I did not have to twist his arm. We had the best food and Waitress. She was young and had a unique name, that I forget, but she was good. Pros:good memories, food and serviceCons:they ran out of tables. We shared our large table with some people from the Legion. We were happy to meet such a nice group of people! Recommend? H to the YES! Day or night.

Seat yourself environment. Sweet tea is delicious. Very attentive waitress. Delicious fried okra and country fried steak. Thick mashed potatoes. Good gravy and barely seasoned black eyes peas. Thick pancakes and garlic toast.

Great service. Wanted to substitute hash browns for bacon and would not allow. Meanwhile potatoes cost a fraction of pork. Descent prices. Again, great service.

First off when we got here it was very manic I could already tell it was going to be a show, after ordering it took 35 minutes just to get the food and we didn't even get all of it it took another five minutes to get the toast. And on top of that I got the country fried steak with white gravy instead of brown gravy which puts brown gravy on a country fried steak anyway and they charged for a side of sausage gravy which wasn't a big deal but my husband got a side of two pancakes and it was seven dollars are you kidding me seven dollars for two pancakes Just ridiculous definitely won't be coming back here again they didn't even have enough syrup to get a syrup from someone else at a different table. The waitress was really really nice and I feel bad for saying this but she was kind of a birdbrain lol 2 words...HOT MESS!

After church I was craving some fried chicken and all the fixings.. I didn't want any of the big box stores... stopped in here and got exactly what I wanted. Great fried chicken and 3 side that hit the spot, black eyed peas, mashed potatoes and some collards..There was a hiccup with their WiFi and the waitress allowed us to leave without paying. That didn't feel right in my spirit, headed out to grab some cash ad settled things up..

Super casual breakfast spot in Jax! We stopped on our way to the zoo an it's very local spot. We each had breakfast in a large group and was able to just eat and head out. Pretty casual spot for a bite. The food itself is pretty normal and decent.

Breakfast again this morning was delicious. Service was fast and food was hot. This is definitely the go to for breakfast on the Northside because it is always busy.

Food / service / everything is crazy good. I get the fried boneless chicken with rice and crazy every time. Nothing is bad. Best soul food on the north side

Great breakfast on a rainy morning. Our server was grade A. Thank you Ashley Rose for sunshine on this rainy day. Will definitely come back.
