Jacksonville’s restaurant culture is an ever-evolving affair.
As older spots plateau and fade, new places come on strong,
meaning there’s never a shortage of exciting places to explore.
Here is one our favorite spots.
« WHITEWAY DELI
Serving breakfast and lunch since 1927, WHITEWAY DELI in
Riverside is Jacksonville’s oldest deli. Throughout the years Whiteway
has had high-profile city leaders make the deli a weekly place to enjoy
amazing food; some even have had sandwiches named after them.
The Hans Tanzler has roast beef, pastrami, and bacon; the Ann Beard
is turkey and tabouli, and the Dr. Millan is chicken tenders, mozzarella,
and tabouli with ranch dressing. These people sound delicious.
Or, try the “Twenty 15” with quinoa, avocado, tomatoes, chickpeas,
hummus, kale, feta cheese and cran-raisins in a wrap that’s grilled. Then
splurge and enjoy a piece of Pistachio Baklava.
