Chowder Ted's Inc - Jacksonville

Fantastic food and outstanding service, but the decor leaves much to be desired. However, that’s what you expect from Chowder Ted’s, which clearly has a long history. Our server was attentive, friendly, and very helpful. We shared a half pot of chowder, enjoyed a crab cake served on salad, tried a cajun burger, and had some really good fries. The crab cake was truly delicious, and while the cajun burger was flavorful on its own, the cajun sauce took it to the next level. Overall, we had a lovely experience and will definitely return the next time we’re passing through.

Fantastic local seafood spot! I've never had a disappointing meal here.

Made the drive to Chowder Ted's and it was worth every mile. The calamari was fresh and delicious, please ignore the fact I inhaled half of the order before taking the picture, it was that good. Keep in mind, the main items do not come with sides. So grab some fries if you want a full meal. Every option was $10 or less. Check out the chaulk board for daily specials.

Soooo Good!. So I seen the pictures on ig from jaxrestaurantreviews and I just had to be curious. I live 10 minutes away and ran out the door for lunch. I was not disappointed at all. Small place along the water, with maybe 5-8 tables in the whole place. I went around 1 after the lunch crowd. I ordered the fried grouper sandwich, suggested by the sweetest waitress. Got a blue moon and 1/2 pot of chowder to start. That chowder was spicy but sooo good. Comes with bread and that made it harder to quit eating. Not to mention, big chunks of potatoes, shrimp, green olives, onion for flavor, and don't forget big pieces of fish. The grouper came out on a bun w/let, tom, and a sauce that was so good they give you a side of it because they know you'll ask for more ; All in all, I only paid $17.00. I'm telling you what, for the awesome yummy food and very nice view of the water, it's worth it to stop by on the way in or out of Fernandina.

Incredible food, great prices. This place is out of the way up on Heckscher Drive, but it's well worth the trip... just check that it's open before you go. On Friday they usually have a grilled Tuna sandwich, which I get bunless with extra salad greens, and it's wonderful with a large piece of fresh tuna cooked perfectly (rare if you ask). Probably a dish you'd pay $15 and up for elsewhere. It's a small place and can get very crowded, so go early and be patient, it's well worth it.
