Went there for happy hour and the margaritas were delightful. They had some orange and blackberry margaritas along with traditional ones. The bartender was super nice and friendly. The bathrooms were a bit rough, but still a solid place in Jax Beach.

While visiting my mom from NYC, we came to the beach for a drink, while this place was empty when we arrived it filled right up and quickly! The drinks are amazing and if you want something special they will do it. Gin and Egg white “something” was my request and I had two beautiful drinks. I mean look at the pictures....
We have all been there, hungry at 1am thinking about hitting up the drive through or huddle house, but once you have had a slider from Shim Sham you will never go back to that big mac again. They are amazing and definitely worth the wait if its a busy night.

The bartenders were friendly and attentive. The atmosphere was lively and softly lit with a few places for photo ops. The downside is there are no quiet areas and it is too loud to hear what anyone is saying and the upstairs area was uncomfortably hot and humid. If you order food, it may take the wait staff/bartenders a while to get back to you. Personally, it was okay, but I wouldn't go back.
My husband and I came last week on a super slow night, the bar tender was attentive and fun. We got the nachos, but they barely had any toppings on them which was a let down. We ended the night with the absinthe shot that lights on fire which was a fun experience. The Bar tender even mixed up some drinks off the menu which was fun, but ended up costing twice as much as menu-drinks and we wish we had been warned because we walked away with a large bill that we should’ve meant we were smashed, but were barely tipsy at best.
Always come here for Taco Tuesday. $2 tacos and $5 for a beer and a shot. One of the best secrets for food in jax beach!
I visited this establishment last night and it was one of the worse experiences I’ve ever had. The bouncers were incredibly rude and aggressive to the point of choking a man and pushing ladies through the stairs for no reason. There are many ways to handle a situation professionally and violence is definitely not one of them. The bouncers in this bar need some serious training. In addition, we also felt discriminated since we got there. The club was horrible and I would not recommend anyone to go there...I will not be attending again. AVOID AT ALL COSTS.
Great bar with great music and good drinks. The only issue I have was that one of the bouncers doesn’t care about the patrons in the slightest. My girlfriend and myself were trying to meet up with a friend inside and one of the bouncers took her state issued ID and told her to have a good night implying it was fake and that he was keeping it. When she took out her military issued ID he gave us attitude and told us we couldn’t go in and she had to snatch them both back. All of this was extremely frustrating especially considering it was Memorial Day weekend right before Memorial Day.

Unfortunately, the Shim Sham restaurant and bar has gained a reputation for racism, homophobia, and transphobia, which is enforced by the owners. They have been known to intentionally target black individuals and enforce their dress code selectively for black customers and this was my experience as well. In addition, one of the owners, Dustin, has been reported to be extremely rude and transphobic, to the extent of yelling at customers who come to him with complaints. This type of behavior is unacceptable and unprofessional. It is essential to recognize that by continuing to patronize establishments like Shim Sham, we are indirectly supporting racism, homophobia, and transphobia. It is vital to speak out against this type of behavior and not support businesses that engage in it. In summary, based on the information provided, the Shim Sham restaurant and bar has a concerning reputation for discrimination, and customers should take this into account when deciding where to spend their money.
