MVP's Sports Grille

MVP's Sports GrilleI happened upon MVP's Sports Grille recently at the corner of Atlantic and Girvin. Not by accident though far from home on Southside. A plan formulated from the thoughts and threads of this community. Of the restaurant community. Respect and praise from your guests and peers deserves rewarding. My reward was a feast of well made and delicious entrees. I dropped the hammer on Loaded Potato Skins. Full of cheese and bacon and buttery potato mix topped with chives and sour cream. You know it was fire.I followed the boats of joy with a Rube. A good Reuben is an eff you to the conventional sandwich. Is it Jewish? Is it German? Does he have a Russian mother? Is their a Cuban Reuben? Sounds delicious but MVP's grilled Reuben on marble rye was exceptional. The crunch of the grilled rye as you incise the rounded edge is eye rolling. I've seen it...it's an actual physical phenomenon. And what of Onion Rings fried to a beautiful golden brown dipped in zesty ranch. It happened as you imagined.And while you may still be standing after all of this hyper satisfaction the clear winner of course is the TKO Club Wrap. Specifically requested on the Tomato Basil wrap this biased zephyr was stuffed with ham, turkey, bacon lettuce and tomato. I have been living that Club Life for several weeks now and have luckied upon several real winners. Good Reuben. Good Club. Good Skins. Good service (Micah). Good atmosphere. Family friendly but be mindful of the hour. Plenty of TV's, tables and bar seating. You will find Rana(I think she makes the desserts) and Louis Kazaleh there most days cooking and running the restaurant. Realizing their dream. Hats off and well done ***Daily Specials as well as games and entertainment on select days***Caramel Pecan CheesecakeTKO Club WrapLoaded Potato SkinsReuben Rebound Melt -- at MVP's Sports Grille.

On my way to Orlando I went in to catch some of the Dallas game and really liked the place. It was a pretty large space but there was an obvious community feeling between the bar tenders and customers. Everyone was having a good time, watching the various games, drinking and talking with each other. Good drinks, great food - I wanted to stay but had to get where I was going. Will visit again.

bacon jam cheez burger at mvp sports grille!100% bussnn! i added extra bacon, lettuce, tomato, red onion & chedder cheez!

Good sports bar food except they allow vapiing in the restaurant. Went there recently and could not stand being next to a regular who is always vaping.

Food and staff were great!!! I had the sunrise burger with the house made onion rings ! Can't say enough about it not typical bar and grill food compared to other places I've been. Will go back to try again. Lived in Jacksonville all my life and this place has been around since 1992. Expected a typical bar and grill inside but very clean and nice place to hang out.

Went there on a yelp lookup .... Staff very friendly even when she was the only person on floor!! Food was great we had jalapeño burger, halfback burger, wings(med), and BLT ... all where great Wings are the no batter type and cooked crispy! Burgers where cooked to perfection! BLT was perfect and fresh. Appreciate the great service from our lady who was running the whole floor! Nice local est. , Plenty of TVs to watch all the games ! Will hit it again on next rip to Jacksonville

In trying to find someplace different to watch the game, we finally decided to give MVP's a shot and was pleasantly surprised! It seems like the crowd is super local and mostly consists of regulars, but it was packed and I immediately noticed how friendly everyone was. We were a party of 8 and short 2 chairs, but several people in the tables around us offered up their tables and chairs so we could sit together. Luckily our server ended up finding a bigger spot for us to move to, so there was no need to take anyone up on their offer.For being fully packed, there was only 2 servers for the entire place, but you never would have noticed. They did an amazing job, were extremely nice and friendly, and always ensured that we had everything that we needed. For food, we ordered the patty melt, loaded fries, and hot lemon pepper wings. It was your typical sports bar food and everything was good. The rye bread on the patty melt tasted super fresh and was slight chewy, which I really liked, and the sandwich itself was not super greasy. We were also a big fan of their onion rings. Overall, it was a really great experience and we were impressed! Can't wait to come back and try some of the other menu items. MVP's is a total hidden local gem!

Kudos to the kitchen! The food was good but the caveat. We sat at the bar during a time when no one was in except a few serviced bar sitters. The bartender oh la la. What an attitude. You are not busy and do not want to acknowledge our presence.. ah.. thanks for the beers. Excuse me can we order. Yeah what do you want.. wings can we split the order in flavor? Answer: you can do what ever you want.. ok we order both with blue cheese.. order comes 1 blue cheese.. all good we made do. 1 wing left on the plate he appears with another blue cheese. My son orders a wrap with side salad and a side of honey mustard.. after delivery and several bite the honey mustard arrives. Never were we asked if we wanted another drink. We always had to interrupt his phone time to request another drink. Bill comes .95 for xtra blue cheese that came late and .95 for honey mustard arriving late. The service was unacceptable fir the amount of customers. I forgot to say the sulfur (poo) smell when we arrived was strong. Kudos again to the kitchen the wings were delicious. Bartender you need to step up your game!

Went for an early lunch. Was greeted right away by Britney. Ordered their shrimp quesadilla and a beer. Beer was cold and food was well presented and delicious. Price was just perfect. Will return when in the area.

Hours are not right they close their kitchen 3 hours before their posted time. I tried to place an order at 11:30 and he told me that they had already shut it down.
