City Grille & Raw Bar

The story

Crafted with passion, served with love

A Riverside Table Worth Seeking Out

City Grille & Raw Bar sits along Prudential Drive in Jacksonville, Florida, where the St. Johns River sets a natural backdrop for a menu that moves between the ocean and the pasture. The restaurant earns its reputation by doing two things with care: sourcing quality seafood for its raw bar and delivering the kind of steak experience that keeps guests coming back.

Seafood and Steakhouse, Done with Conviction

The dual identity — seafood and steakhouse — is not a compromise but a commitment. A raw bar anchors the lighter side of the menu, offering the kind of straightforward, fresh preparations that let the ingredient speak. On the other end, prime cuts bring the weight and satisfaction expected from a serious grill. It's a pairing that suits Jacksonville's coastal-meets-Southern character well.

A Wine List That Earned Its Stripes

In 2025, Wine Spectator recognized City Grille & Raw Bar with its Award of Excellence, a distinction that reflects genuine investment in the cellar. For a restaurant that bridges seafood and red meat, a thoughtfully built wine list matters — and the recognition confirms that the pairings here are taken as seriously as the food on the plate.
