Marker 32: Premier American Seafood Dining in Jacksonville

Amazing local upscale seafood spot. Solid bar and wine menu. Chef curated menu has some fun and exciting recipes. Make sure to grab a reservation in case it’s busy! Very reasonable prices for the quality.

Top notch birthday celebration Chef Brittons creativity and professionalism are top in north Florida. We had Jen as a server. She was very welcoming, attentive and her hospitality took the experience to the next level. We were visited by Jonar and Todd who checked on our experience and made us feel well taken care of. This was my first time at Marker 32 and I will definitely be back with more first timers. Keep raising the bar guys the rest of jax needs to catch up.

What a great dining experience! Every dish we had was bursting with flavor and beautifully plated—it’s obvious the kitchen puts a lot of care into what they serve. Everything tasted fresh and high-quality, and you could really tell that attention to detail makes a difference. The cocktails were also fantastic—creative, well-balanced, and really enjoyable. The atmosphere is fun and inviting without being loud or overwhelming, making it easy to just relax and enjoy the meal. The staff were attentive and friendly, which made the whole evening feel seamless. Between the amazing food, fresh ingredients, and awesome drinks, this place easily impressed us. Definitely a spot we’ll be returning to and one I’d recommend to anyone looking for a high-quality, flavorful meal in a relaxed, welcoming setting.

We went for our 8th year anniversary. The food was wonderful. Our waiter was very sweet & kind. He mentioned some specials which my husband got. We will be back :)

I came by myself and sat at the bar on weekday, Stephanie attended to me and was very attentive, nice and gave great recommendations! I had the seared scallops to start and bistro steak! I took home the cheese cake and it was delightful! Compliments to the chef and I’d definitely be back! My one thing is brighter lighting in parking lot!

Marker 32 sets the standards high for the overall perfect dining experience for all occasions. It’s the solid combination of incredible food and stunning atmosphere. The menu offers a wide variety of options, but a few dishes really stole the show. For starters, the M32 oysters were fresh and briny, the ideal way to kick off the meal. The bread they bring as a courtesy keeps you wanting more. Several different options come to the table. the cheese is a show stopper. My steak was cooked to perfection — tender, juicy, and packed with flavor. And the crème brûlée for dessert? Absolutely divine — creamy, rich, and perfectly caramelized on top. What truly elevates the experience, though, is the setting. The restaurant has perfect lighting that creates a warm, inviting ambiance, and the view overlooking the river during sunset is simply breathtaking. It’s a dining experience that appeals to all the senses — delicious food, gorgeous scenery, and a relaxed yet elegant vibe. We have been coming for years for a date night or with the kids, and everyone loves it!

I absolutely loved celebrating at this restaurant. The atmosphere was quiet and intimate with dim lighting and cozy candles. It was also beautifully decorated for Christmas. Our server, Ben was delightful and kind. He was also very helpful with nailing down good food and beverage picks. I would highly recommend. We got the crab cake and the ribeye. Delicious!

Marker 32 has been a Jacksonville gem for Well Over a decade, and it’s easy to see why. The food, the service, and the location right on the water make it a place I’ll always recommend to friends and family visiting from out of town. I recently brought my aunt and uncle (visiting from Texas and Atlanta), and it was one of three places I suggested near their hotel. They absolutely loved their meal — even though we didn’t end up with a window seat as requested days in advance, the experience was still wonderful. If I could offer one small piece of constructive feedback, it would be this: I’d love to see a few fresh additions or seasonal updates to the menu. Everything on it is fantastic — it’s just been consistently the same for at least 15 years (which says a lot about how well-loved those dishes are!). A few rotating specials or new seasonal dishes would give regulars even more reason to keep coming back. Still, Marker 32 continues to deliver the kind of quality and hospitality that’s very well appreciated. It’s a true classic that remains one of my go-to recommendations for visitors and locals alike. I’d love to visit more often, eventhough I’ve never lived close to this restaurant. I’d make the trip more often for some fun, new additions on both the food and drink menu.
