Black Sheep Restaurant

Black Sheep Restaurant is a closed Five Points dining room, not an open Riverside restaurant. It was at 1534 Oak Street in Five Points, Riverside. Stay Safe Jax keeps the listing active so residents who search the name can see that it shut down on May 27, 2023. This page is filed under Riverside. It is not Black Sheep Bar and Lounge at 7217 Atlantic Boulevard, and it is not Restaurant Orsay in Avondale. Jonathan Insetta owned Black Sheep. The Jacksonville Daily Record and News4Jax reported in late April 2023 that the popular Riverside restaurant would close the next month after 13 years. The Daily Record’s April 28, 2023 follow-up said pandemic-induced price hikes caused the closing and that Restaurant Orsay was not affected. Orsay and Bellwether stayed open. Stay Safe Jax does not treat those surviving rooms as this closed Oak Street page. Public ratings on this page are stored snapshots, not live scores. Stay Safe Jax removed the old Google card for the closed restaurant. This review does not attach Black Sheep Bar and Lounge on Atlantic Boulevard, a different business that has appeared in Places with a tiny 4.9-from-11 file. Without a current Google or Yelp listing for the Five Points restaurant, the headline rating is 0 and the review count is 0. Those zeros mean the dining room is closed, not that a live bar scored zero. Stay Safe Jax does not invent a reopening, a lawsuit, or an official website. The useful public sources are the Daily Record closing story, the News4Jax story, and the Daily Record costs follow-up. Warning flags stay at 0. A closed restaurant is a closed restaurant. The tone follows that evidence: clear, sourced, and not a hit list about a Five Points room that no longer serves Jacksonville. Stay Safe Jax keeps status active so the closed Five Points name still appears in search. The neighborhood is Riverside because 1534 Oak Street sat in Five Points. Residents who want Insetta dining in 2026 should use the Orsay page, not this closed room. Residents who see a 4.9-from-11 Google card for Black Sheep Bar and Lounge on Atlantic Boulevard should ignore it here; that is a different business. The April 27, 2023 Daily Record and News4Jax stories and the April 28 costs follow-up are the public closing record. Flags stay at 0. A closed restaurant is not a hit list.
