What People Are Saying About Bistro Aix

The Scene – This swanky place has all the pulse and rhythm of a hipster spot for a boisterous lunch with friends and people-watching. With vaulted copper ceilings, exposed brick, berets on all the kitchen staff and lots of trendy eyewear in the crowd, AIX is happening. It's noisy and energetic and very popular, but reservations aren't accepted. – – The Food – The menu has mostly Provencal and Mediterranean dishes such as artisanal breads, hummus, grilled pizzas, risottos and roasted chicken with garlic. You can't go wrong with the roasted tomato soup and lamb with…

Editor's Tips

When to Go:
AIX is one of the few restaurants in town that's open late on weekends--take advantage.

Our favorite in Jax!

by teamrococo at Citysearch

Have eaten here 4 times - 2 dinners and 2 lunches. I cannot recommend this place enough! It is without a doubt the best restaurant we've been to in town. We don't go out to eat very often, so when we do we want to make it count!

The sandwich and soup combo at lunch is ridiculously amazing - and the homemade chips are worth a whole review on their own!

Only on one visit was the service a little below par; but other visits made up for it in spades.

I highly recommend the Pork Tenderloin for dinner.

And of course their dessert case is very drool worthy.

Looking forward to a visit next month for a birthday celebration!

My favorite restaurant!

by the_wench at Citysearch

Bistro Aix is a nearly perfect restaurant for just about everyone. Whether you are in the mood for a filet mignon or artisanal pizza (or anything in between), there's something great on the menu for you. Chef Tom Gray possesses the skills of a seasoned chef as well as a savvy businessperson, so the menu truly reflects seasonal foods (they just started their fall menu - hello, brussel sprout, my old friend). Also, the restaurant employs a pastry team (kudos), so all the desserts on the menu are made in-house. The servers and bartenders are warm, friendly, and knowledgeable, and will always assist in wine, beer, and drink pairings.

  • Pros: Everything!
  • Cons: Showing up at 8:00 on Friday? You may have to wait a while for a table.

Noisy, but otherwise good

by felixsis3 at Citysearch

The first thing I noticed when we sat at our table was the noise--and there is lots of it. If you're up for loud music and a room FULL of people trying to talk over it, this is your place because everything else is fabulous. Food is great, priced to match, wine list is extensive, and service is good. But if you're looking for a quiet, romantic table, or a serious business lunch or dinner, you might look elsewhere.

  • Pros: Food, service, location, modern decor
  • Cons: Noise

Always something new and delicious

by getsugarbeet at Citysearch

Having lived in New York, it's not often that I find a restaurant outside the city that could be magicially transported to lower Manhattan and fit in flawlessly. Bistro Aix is one of those places. Flavors are interesting and unique and dishes are well-presented. Wait staff could use some polishing and they really should take reservations, but overall, a wonderful place to spend a lunch or dinner. Decor and ambience are cozy yet hip. My dining companion and I did find it a bit odd that they charge for refills of what tastes much like Country Time lemonade, although our server opted not to charge us for it (she must have realized how downscale that is for a restaurant of this caliber). Overall, though, Bistro Aix is one of my favorite Jacksonville restaurants and a place I return to again and again.

  • Pros: Food, Ambience
  • Cons: Don't take reservations
