Chowder was not what I expected. Was more like veggie soup. Conch fritters were good and the crab cake on a kaiser roll was awesome Local place. Crowded with not many tables tho

Visited for lunch as advised by Trip advisor and was not disappointed. The chowder was unique and delicious, the shrimp were fresh nd expertly prepared. A TINY place with great food and well worth the drive! Location was beautiful.

I almost drove past the restaurant because there is no street signage. You have to be looking for the place to find it. It really is a hole-in-the-wall dive. The exterior as well as the ambiance of the place are not appealing, but I had heard the food was good. My husband and I went there for dinner, but the... More

Nothing fancy in fact this place fits the long told message of not judging a book by it's cover Chowder Ted's is a true Florida fish shack located right on the water with great food in a casual setting.

Later, I had a chance to ask some Jacksonville locals about the restaurannt and... More

We read the reviews on here and decided to find this place when heading home from Florida to North Carolina. We were tired of fast food and theme park food. We ordered the trigger fish sandwiches with jalepeno slaw. It was great! We were sorry they were out of the famous chowder but we were all happy that we trusted... More

This a must do if in the Jacksonville area. The food is awesome. Just be sure to bring cash as they don't accept credit cards. With that said the prices can't be beat. We liked it so much we came back again while visiting Jacksonville. Unfortunatly, the second time we was on a Sunday and they were closed. We were... More

A great place for seafood, typical hole in the wall, but great food and atmosphere. It is consistently good from its Signature Chowder (nice tomato based Manhattan style - a good spicy soup).

2 daughters, their husbands, my husband and I ate the night before leaving for a cruise on Dec. 7th. I had the fried shrimp, we tried the conch fritters for an appitizer, others had the grouper sandwich and chowder. Everything was perfectly prepared and served. We could not have hoped for a better begining of our time together on the... More
