I really, really liked this restaurant, but it's fairly new and has a few kinks to work out yet. Gumbo was delicious but not served hot, one bacon wrapped shrimp, (also delicious) wasn't flipped on the grill so wasn't cooked all the way, but...Read More

You guys need to get there ASAP and more like RIGHT NOW!! Went two weekends in a row! The only thing I'm mad about is not knowing that this location was tucked away on Jekyll Island. Dined al fresco and enjoyed the cajun crab dip,...Read More

We had a great service. The bartender and our waitress was amazing. Food was delish. We had plenty left over and ate later on that day and it was still delish. Place is beautiful and whoever picked out the playlist knows great music. We'll definitely...Read More

Visited on a Sunday, food was really good. We tried the bacon wrapped shrimp and the Cajun crab dip for our appetizers. Both were good, especially the dip!!! We almost ordered a 2nd dip. For our main dish, 2 of our kids ordered the Juke burger...Read More

We’ve had trouble getting into other restaurants on the island, so we thought we’d give the Juke Joint a shot. It’s in a great location in the shopping center by the Westin. We got the shrimp and grits and fried chicken with mac and cheese....Read More

The atmosphere was nice, the waitress was good. The shrimp and grits were delicious. The drinks from the bar was good and strong. The Mac and cheese wasn't the best. The fried chicken was overcooked on the outside. I took a couple bites and a...Read More
