Tucked into Beach Marine on the Intracoastal Waterway, Mavi Waterfront Bar & Grill is one of Jacksonville Beach’s standout waterside tables — the kind of place where the view of the marina is as much a part of dinner as the plate in front of you. Guests can settle in for climate-controlled indoor dining or take a seat outdoors, close enough to the water to watch boats slide past while the sun drops behind the masts.

The kitchen leans into fresh fish and coastal American cooking. A grilled Mahi sandwich, a pan-seared salmon fillet finished with lemon-caper sauce, and a proper fish & chips anchor the seafood side, while a fried shrimp basket and grilled octopus round out the from-the-water options. Beyond seafood, the menu runs through Greek salad, wings, burgers, sandwiches and a rotating set of small plates — all backed by a full bar that keeps the marina crowd lingering.

Weekends are the draw. Sunday brunch runs 11am to 3pm with wallet-friendly cocktails — $4 Mimosas, $4 Poinsettias and $6 Bloody Marys — and live music appears throughout the week (the current schedule is posted on the venue’s website). Between the waterfront setting, the live sets and the easygoing coastal menu, Mavi has become a reliable Jacksonville Beach favorite for both locals and visitors working their way down Florida’s First Coast.
