Restaurant Recommendations Convenient to Ortega River Facilities (Jacksonville, St. Johns River)

On 7/17/08, as part of a “St. Johns River Wish List,” I posed the following question:

9. Can someone make some restaurant recommendations for places to eat within walking distance of the Ortega River facilities?

Responses follow:

Walk five minutes to the Roosevelt Mall and choose from a dozen places to eat, simple like a Subway, C.C.s Pizza, Panera’s Bread Company and Starbucks, through Tom and Betty’s, Longhorn Steaks, Harry’s Seafood Bar, a Japanese Restaurant and a Sushi Bar. You can also pick up ready to eat at Publix Market.

In the Roosevelt Shopping Center which is with-in walking distance of several of the Ortega/St. John’s marinas there is a Starbucks, KFC/Taco Bell, chinese restaurant, Panera Sandwiches, Tom and Bettys (casual food and bar), Harry’s (like a New Orlean’s style Red Lobster) Long Horn Steak House, Cee Cee’s Pizza, Chik-fil-A, a Japanese restaurant, and a guy with a hot dog cart that has killer dogs!
