Best Nightlife in Kingsley Lake

"Chef Dennis Chan’s restaurant was a Southside Boulevard landmark for more than 15 years. No doubt he’s hoping for similar longevity and success with a striking new Blue Bamboo rising in Mandarin. The new, larger space will feature Chan’s classics—vegetable spring rolls, hoisin chicken lettuce wraps, sweet and sour chicken and basil-miso salmon."

"Blue Bamboo is a unique name for a restaurant and it shows on their menu. The place is known for its Asian fusion dishes which feel both traditional and modern. The chef, and owner of the restaurant, had extensive culinary training before opening his restaurant and every single dish on the menu is well designed and carefully crafted."

"Owner and Chef Dennis Chan is not new to the Jacksonville food industry. His original Blue Bamboo location on  Southside Blvd served the community of nearly 15 years. With the goal of opening his “dream location,” Chef Chan started off 2021 by opening his new Blue Bamboo Canton Bistro location in Mandarin."

"Executive chef Charles Wang takes diners on a global journey of sorts with an expansive menu of upscale eats. Think curry beef empanadas, seafood gumbo, pan-seared Ahi tuna, tea-smoked duck breast, grilled salmon and lobster ravioli. A stylish exterior is made more special by an elegant interior, something not particularly common in the Fruit Cove area."

"The cuisine at Blackstone Grille, as directed by head chef Charles Wang. is described as ‘modern American fusion’. It may not be a familiar concept, but in practice nobody’s complaining."

"A truly classic steakhouse possess a clubby and welcoming vibe. One expect fine food but its the simple extras like heavy linen napkins, stylish but sturdy tables and chairs, a full bar and sharp interior design will set it apart. Such is the case at Chophouse 13, a Mandarin landmark for five decades."

"Whitey’s is a rambling restaurant that features a half-dozen different options at which to pull up a chair and indulge in something from its enormous menu. The Fleming Island landmark has covered seating overlooking the water and a small marina. The place is almost no-shirt, no-shoes casual (almost but not quite), which is exactly what draws crowds and boats from across Jax."

"Or, if you’re on the other side of the river, you can drop anchor or set up housekeeping at Whitey’s Fish Camp on Swimming Pen Creek in Fleming Island. In addition to a full-service bait and tackle shop, complete with boat ramp, docks and boat rentals, Whitey’s owners—children of founders Whitey and Ann Ham—included a 44-site RV park."

"This chain of trendy, mildly upscale seafood restaurants has a huge following of fresh and grilled seafood lovers. Although steak, chops, chicken and pasta are on the menu, their wide selection of fresh fish including Mahi Mahi, picatta, pistachio parmesan crusted rainbow trout and seared swordfish have made them so successful. 2400 South 3rd St.Jacksonville Beach, FL32250United States"

"So, when we found ourselves at Pura Vida Body and Mind Medspa, we were intrigued by their new Emsculpt Neo machine!. This non-invasive body sculpting procedure delivers heat and magnetic energy at the same time that results in fat reduction and more muscle growth wherever your hard-to-lose areas are!. It’s a 30-minute treatment that produces +25% more muscle and -30% less fat on average."

"This Salon & Spa is another Jacksonville local favorite and they offer a variety of services like Beauty, Hair, Nail, Massage, and so much more. If you are looking to have a full-on girls day, check out their packages. All packages come with a complimentary glass of wine and an add-on lunch option!"

"Julington Creek Fish Camp is located near San Jose Boulevard and is an excellent spot to enjoy seafood with a Southern twist. The spacious interior, outdoor patio seating, and a full bar make for a memorable meal with friends or family. This restaurant follows their traditional Southern cuisine with unmatched quality of seafood."

"Many southern cities will lay claim to shrimp and grits, but no one does it quite like Jacksonville. With fresh, locally caught Mayport shrimp and a white wine butter sauce, Julington Creek Fish Camp’s dish is a shining example of a local favorite."
