The Local

Great service, atmosphere, and food. The portion size was pretty decent and the food was very flavorful. They have lots of good menu options that I want to go back and try later and it is very cute inside.

We recently had catering for our 80 person wedding by The Local and can’t say enough about how wonderful the food and people were. From our initial conversations with Terrance , to our tasting for menu selection, each step of the way was smooth and well communicated. We truly felt like VIPs and had so many options to choose from. Once we selected the menu our day of service was stress free and beyond expectations. The team was seasoned and knew exactly what to do with limited instruction. Food set up and bar placement were well thought out and the team did a great job all evening. The staff was helpful and engaging and our guests shared many compliments on how the team handled the evening. It goes without mention that the food was delicious and exactly what we had hoped for. I will definitely recommend the Local and hope to use again in the future.

The Local was, without a doubt, our favorite happy hour spot until yesterday. Goodbye $11 poke nachos and $9 hot honey chicken. The hh pricing is now only $2 off apps, which makes the nachos $16 and the chicken $12 during hh (I get it, inflation, I'll get over it). The good news (so we thought)? They kept Jameson on for $5 and Tully for $3. So I had a Jameson and soda water and my husband had a Tully and Sprite. To our dismay, we were charged $10 for each drink!?! When we asked them to adjust the charges to the hh prices we were told that the menu says "Jameson Shot" and "Tully Shot" and does not include a mixer🤔 Will we be shot gunning beers as our chaser? Maybe we can play a mean game of flip cup after each shot. Am I in London right now, where I need to ration my glass bottle of diet coke over the next two measured pours? After being shut down for 3 days last week as a result of failing a health inspection, nickeling and diming your customers is just not the best business decision. The manager did reiterate, as a "one time exception," he will so graciously honor the $3 and $5 pricing and not charge us for the soda water and the Sprite. But just this ONE TIME. Such a great way to show that you really appreciate and value the locals. For the record, the staff is always friendly and the food is good, but they missed the mark yesterday.

this place NEVER disappoints. doesnt matter the day of the week, time, whos working, if im there by myself or with a big party - the food is phenomenal and the service is outstanding (the drinks are 10/10). this is ALWAYS my first recommendation when family and friends visit jax. the food and atmosphere is amazing. this business blows all others out of the water. more recently brought my dog for the first time and they even have a dog bowl, so accommodating.
