Dick Mondell’s Burgers & Fries planning Jax Beach location

Dick Mondell’s Burgers & Fries submitted plans for a 1,136-square-foot restaurant building at 1177 3^rd St. S.

The Gainesville-based eatery serves a menu of burgers and salads. The new Jax Beach location would take the place of a former carwash facility that will be demolished to accommodate the project. It would be the eatery’s first Jacksonville-area location as well as its second overall location.

State records show that a Tallahassee location is planned as well, as its third location.
