Food scene

Flying Iguana has actually ruined tacos for us - no other taco place compares! There could be a long wait on weekends for dinner - so plan ahead, but it’s worth it! Our favorite tacos are steak, Baja fish, scallop, shrimp, and carnitas. Don’t be shy about asking for what you want on your taco, they’ll mix and match. The chips and salsa are free and the chips generally come out warm and with house seasoning that is so good we’ve tried really hard to replicate it ourselves at home - we always ask for extra seasoning on the chips! Great margaritas, never overly sweet. Guacamole is made fresh table-side. This is hands down one of our favorite spots.

Delicomb. There is something special about the coffee here. We always seem to get so much work done, so don't be afraid to bring your computer and set up shop for a few hours - you'll be surprised at what their coffee can do. We’ve found ourselves getting breakfast and lunch here because we stay so long working that it’s lunch time 😂. The owner is always there working hard and knows his regulars by name. Breakfast sandwiches and wraps, granola and açaí bowls, fresh sandwiches and grain salads, and all a regular assortment of baked goods. Everything is made in house!

If you like Pizza and Wings this is the spot. WOOD FIRE ROASTED CHICKEN WINGS (not fried!). Try the V Signature wings (the caramelized onions are incredible) and for the pizza you can't go wrong with the Pizza Delle Donne. It's fresh mozzarella, pesto marinated chicken, ricotta cheese, fresh spinach, fresh garlic. We love to ask for a side of balsamic for dipping. V Pizza also shares the space with Flask & Cannon which if you like a Beer or Hot Toddy with your pizza/wings they have you covered. You will thank us later!

City/town information

A short 45 min drive south will put you in another world. St. Augustine is a city on the northeast coast of Florida. It lays claim to being the oldest city in the U.S., and is known for its Spanish colonial architecture as well as Atlantic Ocean beaches like sandy St. Augustine Beach and tranquil Crescent Beach. Tons of Shops and restaurants. This would be a full day trip but it's worth it. :)

Sightseeing

Boneyard Beach is a magical place that’s near and dear to our hearts. Kim and I were married here because we love it so much. It is a favorite Jacksonville retreat and well-kept secret. We normally see only one or two other people during our day at this beach. Three miles of shoreline along the Nassau Sound at the very northeast corner of the city limits form a spectacular visual and ecological wonderland. You can take your car on the boat ferry for a shortcut or drive around the inter-coastal to get here. Things to do while here: Walk around the beach, take beautiful photos, go seashell/shark tooth hunting, watch the sunrise or sunset, soak up the sun, and enjoy a picnic surrounded by beautiful scenery. It doesn't get much better than this. Bring your own water and snacks, there’s not much nearby. Enjoy ;)
