This restaurant was recommended by one of the locals on Amelia Island and I am glad I listened to him. All of our party ordered seafood and none of us were disappointed. The fried fish dinner came with two huge fish fillets. Their 'famous' crab cakes were awesome and the shrimp was the best I have ever had. We also... more

My family of six went here for dinner and there was so much food we could hardly finish it. The prices were awesome and the service was wonderful! I would definitely recommend to any family. more

Crab cakes and bread are good, prices not too bad. Good food, not a tourist trap like most restaurants on Amelia Island. Worth the trip. more

We had never been there before,but visited twice in 2 days. Loved the crabcakes and if I closed my eyes,I could have been in Baltimore! The breads and side dishes were excellent,but alas we didn't save room for desert! A reason to go back. We liked the view over the marsh and the casual (but not overly so) atmosphere. more

My family liked it enough that we had to go back the next day. We thought the food and atmosphere were great. I liked the meatloaf and the spicy black-eyed pea soup with some jalapeno cornbread added. more

We've been to Barbara Jean's several times. Each time it was different. Overall, the bread was consistently good. Sometimes we have had great meals and other times the meal was just average. The outdoor seating is nice with good views. We've enjoyed the dessert called chocolate stuff. It's good for big groups and family friendly which keeps us coming back.... more
