MILLER'S ALE HOUSE – Restaurant

Jacksonville carries five Miller's Ale Houses, spread from Mandarin to the Avenues, and each runs the same lively sports-bar template — screens everywhere, thirty-five-plus beers on tap, and a menu weighted toward sharing. The signature Zingers are hand-breaded buttermilk-dipped tenders in a choice of nineteen sauces; around them sit boom boom shrimp, barbecue baby back ribs, fried calamari and a Zingers Mountain Melt built on bacon-loaded fries. Steaks, salmon and pastas round it out. The thing guests mention most is the sheer volume of food for the price. Come for the game, stay for the plate.
