Drive Home With Dinner: 3 Great Asian Restaurants Near Jacksonville, FL

1. Hawkers Asian Street Fare

Bold and authentic; Asian street food. Dinner, beverages, brunch, you name it, and Hawkers Asian Street Fare will mesmerize you with its one-of-a-kind take on it. At only a 10-minute drive over to 1001 Park Street, why not give it a try? There are plenty of vegan options and a fun atmosphere that you just can’t miss.

Hawkers Asian Street Fare offers small plates, and we would recommend the soup dumplings and the Pad Thai lettuce wraps, a fun way to have a healthy day. They do a variety of noodle dishes, noodle soups, and curry. You just can’t leave without trying their signature Hong Kong-Wonton, and no meal would be complete without finishing with their marvelous Cinnamon Roti à la Mode. Brunch offerings include Char Siu Baos and Hong Kong Bubble Waffle, which are well-priced.

2. Blue Bamboo

Blue Bamboo will spice up your life with its eclectic and unusual take on Asian cuisine. They have been serving the folks of the Jacksonville area with Cantonese comfort food for 15 years. An intricate fusion between traditional and modern is just 21 minutes away at 10110 San Jose Boulevard, and thankfully your Volkswagen Jetta can handle it! Blue Bamboo serves lunch and dinner with the same carefully crafted, beautifully prepared intricacy that brings about the vibrant and flavorsome taste we all love.

Their lunch offerings are a mixture of light bites, street food, and a variety of wraps, sandwiches, and stir-fries, of which we recommend the Moo Goo Chicken Veggie Stir-Fry. They do a range of signature plates and bistro dishes for the evening meal; the Kung Pao Tofu Stir-Fry is particularly fabulous. Don’t miss out on the weekly Southern specialties such as softshell crab and grits served on Friday and Saturday evenings.

3. Indochine Downtown

Fancy something casual? Indochine Downtown is perfect for you, and you guessed it, it’s within an easy walking distance located downtown at 21 E. Adams St. They serve Thai, Vietnamese and Japanese cuisine, so; more than enough choice to entertain your taste buds. They even do sushi!

They serve lunch and dinner most days, except for Saturday and Sunday when they only serve dinner. They offer the same choices for both meals, including great specialties, soups, and salads. Entrees are customizable, and you choose your own protein and spice level so that dishes are as accommodating as possible. The restaurant also does a wide variety of non-alcoholic beverages, including Blackberry-Jasmine Iced Green Tea and Thai coffee which are both delightful.
