Alhambra Theatre & Dining

Alhambra Theatre & Dining is the Southside dinner theater at 12000 Beach Boulevard, Jacksonville, FL 32246. Google Places lists the phone as (904) 641-1212. This Stay Safe Jax page is that Beach Boulevard house. It is not Theatre Jacksonville in San Marco, not Florida Theatre downtown, and not Players by the Sea in Jacksonville Beach. Public ratings on this page are stored snapshots, not live scores. Google Places currently lists 4.7 from 3,980 reviews for the 12000 Beach Boulevard listing. Stay Safe Jax has no stored Yelp rating, so the headline is 4.7 from 3,980 reviews. Those numbers do not refresh when someone opens the page. A 4.7 from nearly 4,000 reviews is a strong, ordinary dinner-theater score. Google currently lists the venue closed Monday and open Tuesday through Sunday 11:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. Those hours look like box-office and dining service, not a single curtain time. Check the public listing the day you go. Google Places lists wheelchair-accessible parking, entrance, restroom, and seating. Stay Safe Jax did not independently inspect the room. Call (904) 641-1212 if you need a specific accommodation. Wikipedia’s Alhambra Dinner Theatre entry dates the building to 1967 under Jacksonville businessman Leon Simon, a 1984 purchase by Tod Booth Sr., a 2009 suspension during the recession, and a sale that year to Theatre Partners. St. Johns Citizen interviewed owner Craig Smith in April 2026 and dated the opening to December 15, 1967 on then-raw Beach Boulevard land. The same piece said Smith’s group bought a tired buffet-era house in 2009, now auditions in New York, and that USA TODAY readers voted Alhambra the best dinner theatre in the country in 2025. Wikipedia repeats the “oldest continuously running professional dinner theater in the United States” claim and a roughly 408-seat thrust stage. Stay Safe Jax leaves warning flags at 0. A long-running Southside dinner theater with a high Google snapshot is not a warning page. The 2009 pause is historical recession coverage, not a current investigation. Stay Safe Jax does not add the company’s own website. Dinner-theater nights run on a meal-plus-show clock, so the 11:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. Google window is only a starting point. Beach Boulevard traffic and a full parking lot are ordinary Southside friction, not a safety case. Stay Safe Jax does not reprint menus or claim the USA Today reader poll is a government ranking. Residents comparing community theater to a professional dinner house should keep Alhambra on Beach Boulevard and Theatre Jacksonville in San Marco.
