The 38 best bars and drinks in Vilano Beach

Great atmosphere and beach vibes! A very pleasant way to spend an evening Right along the water with trees surrounding you and water and sun views! The food isn’t bad and traditional beach seafood. A bit heavy on cream in the soup. The blackened mahi was a bit bland and under seasoned. Service can be a bit slow and inattentive! Prices are very reasonable and great for large groups as well Plenty of parking out front and a wonderful dock to watch the sunset. A bit noisy if you’re trying to have a conversation

Very fun restaurant for dinner! We got seating on the back deck and the vibes were phenomenal! We got the Seafood platter and the Shrimp basket, we were very happy with both. Seafood Platter (Broiled): the best parts were definitely the shrimp, scallops, and the mahi. The crab cake was okay, very doughy, not my favorite. The fries were fantastic, loved those! Shrimp Basket: We swapped normal fried shrimp for the coconut shrimp and also swapped for sweet potato fries. The coconut shrimp was great, we were very happy with that choice. The sweet potato fries were unique, in stead of salt, they seasoned them with sugar. I personally didn’t love that, but it did make it sweet. We loved coming here!

Aunt Kate’s in St. Augustine is a fantastic spot to enjoy a meal. The food is fresh and very tasty, with flavors that truly stand out. The wait staff are friendly and attentive, making the experience even better. This is the perfect place to visit around sundown—be sure to sit outside for the best atmosphere, you won’t regret it. The views are beautiful, and the setting inside and out adds to the charm. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a memorable dining experience in St. Augustine.

Highly recommend this restaurant, it has a wonderful back porch on the river with a great vibe. Our food was fantastic and the service was just as good. The first night we didn't get to see the sunset,but after such a great meal we decide to go again. Ended up at same table with same waitress. Aoife our waitress was on top of everything truly made our visit memorable right down to the beautiful sunset. Definitely don't miss this place.We will be back for sure the next time we are in St. Augustine.

We had a great sunset dinner at Aunt Kate's. All the food items we had were delicious and the service was very helpful. We had the Calamari, Blackened Fish Sandwich with the catch of the day Grouper, and the Friend fish sandwich. The Calamari and Cheese Grits were stand outs!

Aunt Kate's is an Awesome place to dine at. We sat outside so we could see the water. It was a beautiful evening, the sun was just go down so we experienced a wonderful sunset. The service was excellent from the very start with the hostess suggesting the perfect table for us outside. Once our server came he was very informative on their many wondetful meals. He asked what we might be interested in eating that evening and gave us some wondetful suggestions. Once we received our food the taste and smell was so delious. We both ordered seafood along with a appetizer of Gator bites and Lobster Bisque soup. Our server came back numerous times to refresh our beverages. He was very attentive to our needs. The whole experience was just wonderful. We will definitely go back again.

The food and atmosphere fear was awesome!! They seated us and it was quite of a wait around 20 minutes before anyone came to our table, but after that everything went well. The fish tacos were great and the fries were potato wedges which was great with the tacos!! The fried green tomatoes were delicious!!!

We had a great experience at this restaurant. The snapper fish in coconut salsa served with coconut rice is exceptional! The local beer and mojito really enhance the flavor of the fish, and the key lime cup finishes off the meal. We were lucky enough to get a table next to the water and watched the stunning sunset and dolphins play. The music is very soft and unobtrusive, and the restaurant is quiet, despite more than half the tables being occupied. The service is excellent, and the staff is polite and friendly. There's plenty of parking. We paid $135 for dinner, but it was worth it. Highly recommend!

By the name of the restaurant, one can tell that this outfit is located on the waterfront. Some diners indeed arrive in this watercraft. The decor is authentic, and the ambience is romantic. The team members from valet parking to hostesses to servers are pleasant and attentive. The wines are decent but not overpriced. Seafood dishes are fresh and tasty. My favorite tonight is the side dish of creamy spinach, which is delicious and satisfying. A very nice place indeed.

I cannot say enough great things about this restaurant ❤️ The food was so delicious. The chicken was so moist and savory. The cucumber salad is so refreshing 😋😋 drinks were flowing. Great all around. Chef Chip is the MAN!! Cristin at the back bar top notch! Spend the money for an amazing experience it's worth it❤️

From start to finish, our visit was absolutely delightful. The atmosphere was cozy and inviting, with a beautiful view that made the experience even better. The staff was friendly, attentive, and made us feel welcome right away. Every dish was cooked to perfection. You can tell the team here really cares about quality and service. Truly an awesome experience that I would recommend to anyone visiting the area. We’ll definitely be back! 💙🙏🏻

My 16 year old wanted to experience the sunset and dining with her friends for her birthday. There is not a better spot than right here. We had a very large party and our servers were awesome. They were attentive, friendly and we could not have asked for a better experience. Since we were a large party, we made sure to give a few weeks notice. Everyone we talked to was very helpful. Most of the girls had never been here before and kept talking about taking their parents back to this gem. They all said the food was delicious. If you like spice the calamari was tasty. Their favorite was the gator tail and garlic shrimp. Thank you Caps for making this a day to remember. She said it was more than what she could have dreamed of ❤️

Banana Pudding Martini.. Best I’ve ever had 🍌!! Clair was the best server ever, only there was the weekends, worth it! Went for our 10 year anniversary lunch, would recommend to anyone wanting a beautiful lunch spot! King crab claws were enormous!

Awesome atmosphere! Plenty of parking. Outside heaters. Dock where you can hang out and feed catfish. The food... honestly... it was just decent. Nothing special. Very fresh though.

Loved everything about this place! The decor was interesting with a fun atmosphere, and great customer service from Jasmine! My cocktail (Waiting in Vain) was tasty and refreshing. We started by sharing the Lil Gems Caesar…best caesar I have ever had, the olive tapenade made the dish. I loved every part of the Skillet Fried Chicken & Hoecakes! The chicken was crispy and juicy, and the hoecakes were so delicious (loved the apricot butter!). My husband also loved the burger and cocktail (Dazed and Confused). Would highly recommend!

I would recommend this restaurant. The atmosphere was nice, though the main course was not to my liking and the rest of our order wasn’t the best. The drink also wasn’t to my taste, and while sitting near the bar I had to wait a bit since the bartender stepped away. The restaurant is located above the distillery, which adds a unique touch. Facilities were clean, parking was convenient, and the area was very chic and well-kept. Overall, I really enjoyed the location.

Great place to stop in St. Augustine. The restaurant is in the same building as the St. Augustine distillery so you can do 2 things at once. Awesome space in original ice house setting. Unique menu featuring locally produced ingredients. I had the 2 egg offering that had their homemade bread. The meal was fantastic. When you're done eating, take the distillery tour & sample their bourbon & gin.

No reservations required.Tried the crab beignet, pimento cheese & bread, burger , fish of the day. Everything was well seasoned and delicious made from scratch. Cocktails were great and balanced. Service was attentive. Love the historical aspects of the industrial building. Really enjoy that it’s off the beaten path. If in St. Augustine I recommended this restaurant.

This is the best meal we’ve had so far! Our server Gina was absolutely awesome, and we had the Lil Gem Ceasar salad, Crab Beignets, and Shrimp Aguachile. It was all so fresh and flavorful!

I got the special fried snapper over dirty rice in May and haven't stopped thinking about it since. It might be the best meal I've ever had! Love that this place is open late, we bring friends here all the time.

The food? It's awesome. But everything wants to be 'fancy,' when my preference is for simple food, prepared exceptionally well. They DO prepare their foods exceptionally well. We had a large group, and everyone was pleased with the food. The drinks? OUT OF THIS WORLD AMAZING! You will not top this in NE FL, and you might not top it anywhere. Sam was our bartender while we waited for our table, and he created some custom bourbon drink magic for us, even demonstrating some ice techniques that were absolutely fascinating. I can't say enough about Sam, nor about the drinks we got - absolutely fantastic in every way!

Nice spot on A1A with a free parking lot and terrific ocean views. Reservations are encouraged. Deck and interior seating gives you great views of the Atlantic Ocean. The menu is good for somethings and not worth it for others. The fish sandwich was a bit small with it not filling the bun. Had a few bits with no fish. It was tasty though and the grits were excellent as well as the spinach artichoke dip.

I chose this spot for lunch mainly for its close-up ocean view, and it did not disappoint. We ordered the avocado egg on an English muffin, fried chicken with waffles, and fish and chips. The dishes were decent overall, though the batter-fried fish was a bit oily—likely due to the oil temperature. Service was friendly, and live music played throughout our meal, adding to the laid-back atmosphere. Overall, a pleasant experience with unbeatable views.

Beautiful, quiet and classy restaurant right on the beach. We had a beautiful view of the beach, perfect to watch the storm roll in. The service was top notch - very friendly, professional waiter, quick and provided excellent service. The food itself was all delicious. It's a much classier feel than the typical beach restaurants so it was a welcomed change during our recent beach trip. 10/10 recommend and will be marking it as a "must go again" for our next trip.

My wife and I chose this place because of the reviews and close proximity to our hotel a mile away. We also wanted seafood. We loved the location between the road and the ocean. We enjoyed the seacoast while we waited for our table. We were able to sit next to a window and watch a cruise ship pass by. My Samsung s25 Ultra got a great closeup with a 100x. We were served fresh hot bread with butter and it was very delicious. We ordered spinach artichoke dip which came out piping hot but also very delicious. Our entrees came out. My wife ordered the Caribbean Grill with mahi and shrimp. She said it only had 2 small shrimp and was unexpectedly spicy, which she was not pleased with. I had the fried shrimp with French fries and squash with zucchini slices. My meal was very good. What motivated me to give 4 stars was that our server, Mia, wasn't tending to us quickly enough nor did our desire for dessert get satisfied because she quickly provided the dessert menu but disappeared for an extraordinary long time. The other server working tables near us had a better work ethic than ours. I found it ironic that a restaurant of this caliber and higher prices would have menus with no pictures of the food. A picture is worth a thousand words and more people would order based on pictures. That's also true with the dessert menu. I had to go on Google reviews to find photos of food and desserts before making my decision. At least the restroom was clean and attractive. The sign next to the Hostess stand had "appetizers" misspelled.

Had a wonderful time at the Reef today for lunch. The views of the ocean from our table and outside of the property are spectacular. The service was excellent, and the food, most importantly, was great! The seafood chowder especially was outstanding!

My friend & I went to the Reef for a light snack around 3:00 pm on a Sunday. No waiting. We ate outside to take in the gorgeous ocean view & breeze. Our waiter, Jacey, was very nice & attentive. I had the Coconut Battered Jumbo Shrimp (pictured). My friend had the Lobster Bisque. Food & service great.

Have been wanting to try The Reef for a while but hadn’t had the time to make it out. I wish I could have a raving review but unfortunately I cannot. We came in on a Saturday night with reservations at 4:30 so that we could enjoy a drink and appetizer before we had entrees. We were sat immediately and asked if we were okay sitting next to a table with a dog (appreciate the hostess being aware). We sat at our table for 30 minutes without waters or any wait staff acknowledging us. At this point my husband went back up to the hostess stand and requested the server be sent to our table. We waited another 10 minutes without being acknowledged. I flagged down a waitress and requested our wait staff be sent to our table. Another 5 minutes later and the table next to us waitress noticed that we had not even been served water. When our waitress FINALLY arrived after 50 minutes of waiting all she said was that there was a miscommunication. Between the time that we were sat and our waitress showing up at our table 5 other tables had been sat, had their beverages and bread served, and had either ordered their entree or had their entree on the table. At this point we were hungry and ordered the coconut shrimp appetizer (told dairy free). The complimentary bread and alcoholic beverage came out followed by the appetizer. We ordered the shrimp and lobster risotto (not dairy free) and the Honey Dijon Basted Atlantic Salmon (told dairy free) entrees. Coconut shrimp were large. All the food was just okay and not worth the price. Unfortunately the food that was supposed to be dairy free was either cross contaminated or had dairy because we did not have a good next 2 days. No manager stopped by to check on us after the “miscommunication” nor did the waitress offer any type of discount/complimentary meal.

Tried this place for the first time and overall had a pretty good experience. The burger was solid—juicy, cooked well, and had decent flavor, though it didn’t quite blow me away. The wings were just fine—not bad, but nothing special either. The real standout for me was the short ribs sandwich; it was tender, flavorful, and definitely the highlight of the meal. Service was friendly and the atmosphere was relaxed. I’d come back, especially for that short ribs sandwich!

We really enjoyed it here. The server was great Casey thank you! She was so friendly explained the menu in full. She really helped to make our dinner a great one! The food was really good. We had the devil eggs which we liked. Everything we ordered was cooked to perfection and was really good! I will definitely be back!

Really love Prohibition Kitchen, great food and such a cool atmosphere. The whiskey BBQ is soooo good so usually get that burger or on wings. The milkshakes are so yum. Always great service. The have tables, booths and seating upstairs. There is often really great live music artists. Right off the main tourist street so be prepared to take a little extra time for parking and seeing some local shops.

This was our first time visiting. We went on a Wednesday afternoon. The atmosphere is dark, a little steam punk/ industrial vintage. It was sunny outside but inside i really felt like I was in a 1920s speak easy at 3am. We had a trainee server and he did a great job. Food didn't come out too fast or slow. They cooked our burgers to perfection and we got a fantastic portion of the best fries I've eaten in Florida. Nice and crispy with the right amount of salt. The menu was a mix of burgers and fun oddities to the typical florida fare. Pork rinds, poutine, or Mac n cheese. I loved the variety of options. The menu is printed on the back of a faux newspaper adding to the theme. They do have live bands around 6pm on certain days and I can see this place absolutely vibing at night. 10/10 recommend if you are on St George Street.

Live music is great! But seating upstairs towards the door is excruciating when you’re trying to hold a conversation with friends while dining if the music is playing because it does get really loud. I begged to be moved, and they were able to sit us closer to the back, and I was grateful because the experience became SO much more pleasant. I loved the live music, the view from the top, and still being able to hold a conversation with friends. And the food! Must be said, food prices were totally worth it, beers were quite expensive, at $9 per glass. Flank steak salad Gorgeous salad, fresh and crunchy. And the flank steak was actually one of the best I’ve had! I’m usually always disappointed with these because it is not easy to cook flank steak well without it getting too tough. These were cooked perfectly medium, but still super tender and perfectly seasoned. The dressing was sweet. I was glad i had asked it on the side, so I could control the amount i would end up eating. It being too sweet for my taste, I ended up asking for a side of ranch. The salad was great with either. I wish I had asked for the ranch substitution when I ordered, cuz they ended up charming me extra for the ranch later. Fish sandwich Oh wow, this was a huge piece of fish! With a perfect crunch and delicious seasoning. I only had a piece of the fish that was sticking out, and it was delicious. Hany had the whole sandwich and said it was even better. Don’t doubt it. Very nice! Burgers Friends got the burgers that looked amazing and both said they loved it. Side salad was in a smallish bowl, but fresh and satisfying. Overall, a fun place with good music, good service, good food, and great vibes. Expensive beer, but I guess that’s the payment for being in a tourist neighborhood.

My server Delia was an absolute delight! From start to finish, she made the dining experience fantastic — friendly, attentive, and incredibly knowledgeable about the menu. Her recommendations did not disappoint! I ordered the Braised Short Rib on a bed of mashed potatoes, and it was absolutely amazing — tender, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. I added the country-style green beans, and I’m so thankful I did; they paired perfectly with the dish. To top it all off, I went with Delia’s suggestion of the chocolate peanut butter milkshake for dessert, and it was super good — rich, creamy, and the perfect sweet finish. Big thanks to Delia and the team at Prohibition Kitchen for such a memorable meal. I’ll definitely be back!

My girlfriend and I found this place randomly and gave it a try. Sure glad we did! We have been back a total of 3 times and each experience has been phenomenal! Extremely good food and beer. Live music and great dimly lit atmosphere. When we hit St. Augustine this is our spot! Little bit of a wait when they're busy but it is totally worth it! They take your phone number and text you when they are ready to seat you. This is no big deal because there are tons of shops around to go explore while you wait! 10/10!

Wow. It’s been a long time since I’ve been wholly impressed by a restaurant. Every single thing about this place was amazing. Service, ambiance, food were all 10/10. There is not one complaint to be made. The hostess who sat us was so sweet and very accommodating to our large stroller for our son. Our server Daniel had what could only be best described as charisma, he was not over the top pushy yet was still completely attentive and subtly funny. It felt like we had an inside joke with him (over what I can’t tell you but it’s like we had our friend serving us). He checked in just enough that we didn’t feel neglected but also never felt over bothered. On top of that when we sat down it seemed the whole restaurant did as well. But the staff didn’t let us see them sweat. Honestly we were so shocked to see how cohesive they moved to get tables serviced. If you’re wondering no we have no personal connection. We are simply on a family road trip and we always stay in Saint Augustine. Can’t believe this is our first time here because pretty sure it’s the only restaurant we’re going to eat at when we visit.

Went to a soft opening in early September and the place is awesome! Food, service, and ambiance is all very good. Being on Lake Okahumpka is a plus as you can see sunsets & the occasional gator. Bar is very cool with about 50 seats with views of the TV’s! Check it out! There will be a wait so be patient as it is worth it!

Our recent visit to Harry's Seafood Bar and Grille for my man birthday was exceptional, starting with our incredible server, Melanie, who made the whole experience effortless and five-star worthy. We started strong with the appetizers: the rich, smoky gumbo and the fish dip - they were both amazing! For the main event, the Crab Crusted Redfish Royale was a truly luxurious indulgence. The delicate, flaky redfish was topped with a generous, savory crab crust that was absolute perfection. My partner’s Andouille Grouper was equally dynamic, featuring a beautifully prepared fillet with the robust, spicy kick of Andouille sausage. Harry's delivers expertly crafted seafood and true New Orleans flair. We'll be talking about this meal for months! Overall Rating: 5/5 Stars Recommended Dishes: Crab Crusted Redfish Royale, Andouille Grouper, Gumbo

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “Fish tacos, history, and a balcony view worth every calorie!” If you go to Harry’s in St. Augustine, do yourself a favor — sit on the balcony! You get this postcard-perfect view of the waterfront and the Lions Bridge, right next to El Castillo de San Marcos. It’s like dinner and a history lesson with seasoning! Our server Jeremy from Indianapolis was awesome — he just moved to Florida and already delivering 5-star service. (Good luck out here, buddy, just wait till you meet Florida humidity 😅). We found this spot on TikTok, and for once, TikTok didn’t lie! The calamari was crispy, the fish tacos were 🔥, and yes… I ordered a hamburger at a seafood place. I know, I know — but don’t judge me, the burger was legit! 😂 Between the view, the food, and the vibe, I left full, happy, and slightly jealous of Jeremy’s new job location. 10/10 — would definitely go back (and maybe even try something that actually swims next time). 🐟🍔🌊

First time experience was exceptional! I had the shrimp and scallops orleans, everything was prepared well and fantastic, and my wife had the fried shrimp and grouper with red beans and rice and sweet corn grits. She enjoyed every bite! My meal included grits cakes, which I don't normally care for, and these were delicious! We had the butter pecan cheesecake for dessert, and I would have paid the cost of the meal for that cheesecake.

Harry's Seafood, Bar & Grille is an absolute gem! From the moment you walk in, you're greeted with an enchanting atmosphere that sets the tone for an unforgettable dining experience. The food is nothing short of excellent—every dish is packed with flavor, and the seafood is a must-try. Whether you’re there for a date night, a family outing, or just a fun evening with friends, the lively and welcoming vibe makes it enjoyable for everyone. I truly fell in love with this restaurant and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a perfect mix of delicious food and a magical ambiance!

Father's Day and hello again, beloved St. Augustine! The restaurant is in an old two-story house, many separate rooms, there is a great party area, where in the evenings there is live music, an excellent view from the balcony of the bay. There are a lot of people, but the wait for a table took only 10 minutes and it's great! Prices for lunch and dinner are different. We ordered Grouper Fingers, fish in batter, arugula and sauces, delicious and they also brought hot bread with garlic butter, this is crazy taste, I need to cook it at home too. French Market pasta for me, be prepared that the portion is huge, shrimps, professionally cooked, chicken pieces, the pasta is delicious. Bourbon Street Salmon for my husband, broccoli was a little raw, but this is an acquired taste, I always eat them fresh, it is healthier, but my husband did not like it, mashed potatoes were delicious and most importantly salmon under a slightly spicy sauce was magnificent. Thanks to Eric for fast and unobtrusive service. Thanks to everyone who works in the kitchen. We will definitely recommend you to our friends and acquaintances.

The atmosphere was esthetically pleasing and very inviting. The food was tasty and unique. There was also a wonderful drink menu dedicated to a fellow local bartender who has fallen on hard times medically. Though we only had one drink from the menu, it was great. The only area that could have been improved was the service. At the beginning of our visit they were more attentive, but as the night went on and the restaurant began to fill up the service got slower. All in all, would definitely recommend.

The food was great! My husband got the shrimp and grits and I had the Bahn Mi. For drinks, my husband had the godfather improved and I had daybreak. They were perfectly and freshly crafted. I did not really enjoy the chia seed pudding. Not sweet enough and it tasted as if it had turned. Our waitress was attentive and wonderful. The atmosphere was a vibe and the music was super chill. If the chia seed pudding had been better I would have given 5 stars.

We used the online reservation system and were immediately seated. The drink menu was quite imaginative and they had excellent homemade sodas! They were decorated for Halloween and the atmosphere was ideal. Our server was very attentive, delivered our food as ordered, and wasn't pushy at all. I ordered the pork chop, we split a large salad, and my wife got the Penne a la Vodka. My pork chop was perfectly cooked and didn't seem to be ruined by the always-common wet brine that so many restaurants employ. It had a wonderful homemade BBQ sauce and I subbed the Brussels with gochujang sauce-- which were fried nicely with the sauce being a perfect complement. The salad was very fresh, nicely dressed, and used a very good quality cheese. Lastly, my wife's pasta was generously sauced and she was extremely happy with this vegetarian option. Certainly not phoned in like some places. It had a softito base with vegetable broth and then was finished with cream, high end cheese, and vodka. We were only in town for two nights and I scoured the city to find the right place for our second night. Forgotten Tonic didn't disappoint.

Incredible! We planned to only come here for drinks, but ended up staying for appetizers as well. Every bite was delicious! Our server could not have been any nicer. We ended up talking to her for quite a while. This place was jammed on a Saturday night, but our service was absolutely excellent. I highly recommend the deconstructed artichoke dip. I’ve never had anything like it, and it was absolutely incredible! Super fun and creative spin on drinks too.

Loved the customer service from our waitress, Amelia! She was phenomenal! We had the meatballs and fish dip for appetizers, and the mussels and shrimp & grits for our entree. The food was great!! We totally forgot got to take pics of it! My husband has three glasses of Chardonnay, which he loved. I had a mocktail (Widow Maker) but it was too sweet so I couldn’t drink it. It was taken off the bill, no problem. Great selection of drinks, though, and Amelia treated us to the creme brûlée which was absolutely divine!!! 10/10 highly recommend

Such a fun and unique spot! The drinks were great, and the staff made the whole experience so enjoyable we stayed past closing. Brandon was an awesome bartender who made the night even better. The decor was perfect for spooky season, and I love that they go all out for Halloween! Also I thought the bathroom sink was so cool!

Absolutely beautiful meal from start to finish! Awesome service from Ethan who has great recommendations and timing. We enjoyed sharing a few appetizers that were each awesome. Lovely cocktails and a great atmosphere. The pop-up Halloween vibe was unexpected and so fun! We'll definitely be back and explore more of the menu.

I’ve been to St. Augustine before, but never dined at this place until now. We just arrived in town today & were looking for a nice spot for dinner when we stumbled upon this cute, cozy & surprisingly spacious restaurant. They offer a great variety of options for everyone—meat eaters, vegans & vegetarians alike. As a vegetarian, it’s not always easy to find a good place to eat, but both my boyfriend & I were genuinely impressed. This place is a solid 10/10! The food, service, ambiance & drinks were all top-notch. As someone who doesn’t drink, I had one of the best non-alcoholic beverages I’ve ever tasted. I ordered a curry with tofu & it was an absolutely incredible food experience. My boyfriend had a meat plate that he loved & he was also really impressed with their beer selection. We also got a dip appetizer which was very delicious. Overall, an amazing experience—we’ve already decided this will be our go-to spot whenever we’re in town!

Great food and server, but disappointing reservation handling and missed opportunity on a special occasion We had a reservation at The Floridian and arrived 10 minutes early. Despite checking in promptly, we weren’t seated until over 20 minutes past our reservation time—30 minutes after check-in—with no communication or update from the host stand. To make matters worse, a party of four and a party of thirteen, both with the same reservation time and who arrived after us, were seated before us. No explanation was given. It felt like our reservation—and our time—weren’t given any consideration. When we booked the reservation, we were prompted to indicate if we were celebrating a special occasion. We noted that it was our anniversary, hoping that would add a nice personal touch to our evening. Unfortunately, there was no acknowledgment from the host stand, and no gesture or effort from the restaurant as a whole. Our server, however, was excellent. When we mentioned it was our anniversary, she warmly wished us a happy anniversary right away. She was knowledgeable, kind, and attentive throughout the meal—an absolute bright spot in the experience. This review is in no way a reflection of her service. The food was also a highlight: the brisket posole was phenomenal, and the meatloaf was quite good. We left satisfied with the food and truly appreciated our server’s professionalism. Still, on what should’ve been a special and memorable night, we left feeling overlooked. A simple gesture—a dessert, a note, or just a little acknowledgment—would have gone a long way. Especially since the system prompted us to share that we were celebrating, it was disappointing to see no follow-through. Great food and service—but the front-of-house experience and guest communication need work, particularly when it comes to honoring reservations and occasion-based bookings.

I visited The Floridian in St. Augustine with three friends, and we all had such a great experience! Every meal we ordered had its own unique flavor — each dish tasted different in the best way, and everything was delicious. You can tell they put care into the ingredients and preparation. I felt really good after the meal, both satisfied and impressed. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, and it’s a perfect place to enjoy a relaxed, flavorful meal with friends. Highly recommended!

Nice little place and amazing food. It has vegan and dairy free options for anyone who needs those options. We went on the weekend, so a little busy. But that didn't slow them down for getting our food out to us in a timely manner. Wonderful, friendly staff. Highly recommend if you like to try different twists on some yummy food.

Came across this place by accident. There was a giant selection of gluten free food and vegetarian. I was not a fan of the veggie burger but that was a personal preference. The homemade chips were delicious! The staff was super friendly. It was very clean and seating inside.

Visiting from WA state and we had an outstanding meal. So fantastic to be able to find truly delicious vegan options and not just a salad minus the cheese! I had fried green tomatoes (my go to when I am in the South) followed by the curry with tofu which was wonderful. My only sadness, they were sold out of vegan dessert so my waste-line was saved! Hats off to our server Troy, he explained everything and was attentive throughout our meal.

We had a wonderful lunch experience! The lunch menu had an excellent selection, and the food was prepared exceptionally well. If you're looking for something fresh and earthy, the Grain Bowl salad is a must-try, seriously, no need for extra protein! The Biscuit and Belly appetizer was delicious. While the soup of the day (vegetarian eggplant, potato, peppers, etc.) might sound simple, its flavors were surprisingly complex and truly outstanding. Our group also thoroughly enjoyed the Burrito Fresco and the Cuban (pork) Floridan. We're already planning our next visit to explore the dinner menu!

Wonderful happy hour! Sea vibes and band jamming in the background! Sit out on the deck and enjoy the breeze with an old school beach vibe Friendly bartenders with a great selection of drinks! Reasonably priced considering the atmosphere with ample parking!

Everything and I mean EVERYTHING WAS ABSOLUTELY outstanding! My significant other (Ben) and I went to The Conch House on a Saturday night and we had the upmost pleasure to meet Dylan! He is such a great person and all of the staff were so friendly and helpful! Starting with the two amazing girls that helped us get a table. To Jordan the best bartender who was patient with us when ordering a drink and directing us to wherever we needed to go. Our server Kyle made such a lasting impression on us and answered every question we had and brought everything out in such a short time. To the chef we give you so much props! The food was so flavorful and seasoned to perfection. We indulged in the best pumpkin cheesecake I have ever had. Thank you Dylan for everything you did for us. We can’t wait to see you and your amazing staff again and enjoy all the laughter and open conversations. You all created a core memory that Ben and I will never forget. I recommend EVERYONE come here for the food, vibes, and outstanding experience and views.

World class service, phenomenal food, amazing views and atmosphere. The food here is actually cooked and seasoned like a real restaurant should do. This is not microwaved garbage from some knockoff seafood restaurant. I sampled the Fried Conch, Lobster Bisque (best I’ve ever had with TONS of lobster added), the blacked flounder (catch of the day), the Shrimp Anastasia with their AMAZING white wine butter sauce, and the homemade Key Lime Pie. All dishes were 10/10. You can bring your own freshly caught fish also and have them prepare them for you if you’d like. All in all a great experience.

We used the upstairs for a wedding rehearsal dinner. I can’t say enough about How wonderful our experience was. The service was top notch. The food was great. The view was incredible. Everything was more than we had expected. I would highly recommend. This restaurant for an event or just dinner!

We sat at Tiki table outside over looking water and marina. The service was awesome, our waitress was knowledgeable, courteous and attentive. She was there when it was time for refills and answered great questions about the food and other things about the restaurant because it was our first time. The food was also awesome, we had the pulled pork tacos and a jerk chicken sandwich. And shared the sides of fries and rice & beans. The cocktails were tasty, it's sitting at the table overlooking the water with a lot of fun. I definitely give this a two thumbs up and if you're visiting St Augustine area someplace to try.

If you get there early enough you can sit at a tiki hut by the water and it is gorgeous. The view of the marina and the food was fabulous. I had the Cajun shrimp and grits that were so flavorful and hubby had the whole fish and said it was great.

I enjoyed lunch here recently. I got the wedge salad and it was wonderful. My friend got the tacos with beans and rice and he said it was great. We had good service and we had a great lunch. The prices were fair. The setting is absolutely amazing and they have completely revamped everything. I'm a Saint Augustine resident and I haven't been here in years. It feels like this place has underwent a transformation with all of the remodeling. It's very well done. I highly recommend this place.

Beaches At Vilano offers an unbeatable combination of flavorful food, relaxed beachside atmosphere, and friendly service, making it a must-visit spot for anyone traveling to St. Augustine or Vilano Beach. Let’s start with the fried gator. Crispy on the outside, tender on the inside—this dish is everything a good gator bite should be. The breading was golden brown with just the right amount of seasoning, complementing the slightly firm yet juicy texture of the meat. Served with a tangy dipping sauce that enhanced its rich flavor, each bite was mouthwatering and packed with Southern charm. Next up, the Bacon Cheddar Burger. A masterpiece of comfort food, this burger was cooked to perfection, with a juicy beef patty topped with thick, crispy bacon and melted cheddar. The balance between the smoky bacon and the sharp cheddar made every bite irresistible. The bun was soft yet sturdy, holding everything together without becoming soggy—a true mark of a well-crafted burger. And let’s not forget the fries! Golden, crisp, and delightfully seasoned, they were the perfect sidekick to an already fantastic meal. Each fry had the right amount of crunch, with a fluffy interior that made them incredibly satisfying. Whether dipped in ketchup or enjoyed on their own, they were the ideal finishing touch. With its fresh seafood, hearty classics, and unbeatable waterfront view, Beaches At Vilano is an experience in itself. Whether you’re a local or just passing through, this spot delivers in every way, making it easy to see why you’d highly recommend it. Sounds like a meal worth revisiting!

Amazing food. Exceptional service. Our waitress, Jessica was awesome. Very attentive. We had snow crab legs, 3 sets!, fried plantains, conch fritters, fries alligator, and the Thai chili scallops. Everything was cooked perfectly and delicious.

Good place to catch a quick tasty bite. It was raining so outdoor seating was a bust. Waiter was kind and did her best to check in despite it being a busy day. Crab cakes were not as crispy but very flavorful! Painkiller drink 10/10

I appreciate they have gluten free options, but it would be even better if they offered a gf menu with the options listed out rather than relying on staff who don’t seem to confidently know. The gluten free wrap they offer isn’t bad, but the fresh catch sandwich was dry and lacking something which I believe was tartar sauce. Altogether, the food didn’t blow me away. The ambience is very nice.

Busy day - 4th of July. Fried food was barely warm, and took a while after we were sat to get a server, finally flagged one down. She very gracious and took great care of us. But overall, we enjoyed sitting on the deck watching the sunset.

Although there was a little wait (to be expected with how busy it was) it was well worth it because the food was spectacular. The nachos were the best we’ve ever had and the shrimp and grits still make my mouth water. This will be a regular stop for us when we are back in Vilano!

The mini Ahi tacos were light and delicious, went great with our happy hour margaritas. And the key lime pie was the perfect little treat.

The family and I went here when we went to see night of lights. After walking around the shops for a couple of hours we got hungry and stumbled across this little gem. The food was good and the service was also good, exactly what I expected which is a compliment. The place itself was really a pretty cool experience and something I'd love to do again. If you're there and looking for a good meal at a good price I would definitely recommend this place, at least give it a look, I doubt you'll regret it.

Well, all good thing's come to an end, or do they ? Scarlett O'Haras is now Scarletts, fantastic burgers, hot dogs, and chicken fingers.. Our meals were delicious and one of the best burgers I have had in a long time. Service was spot on great job 👏

Wow, what a cool place! Open late with a lot of different types of drinks. I love the dark wood and rustic vibe. The staff was very friendly and easy to talk to. We had the bbq pulled pork sliders and the chicken nachos, both were great. They have a bunch of different sitting areas and a few different bars. Highly recommend!

Food was very tasty! I loved the sweet potato tots with the honey sauce. The Pulled Pork sandwich, Ceasar salad, Mahi Mahi sandwich, and the Buffalo Chicken Wrap were all good choices. The Fries Green Tomatoes were very flavorful. Another great meal from Scarlett's!

Reasonably priced drinks and friendly staff. All day Happy hour, great old fashions, live music (we went on a Sunday afternoon), and interesting history/story of the origins of the house and the man that built it. Didn't try the food bc we had lunch right before stopping for drinks, but the wings that someone else ordered next to us looked and smelled amazing!

We had a wonderful lunch . My wife had Mahi Mahi sandwich and I had chicken tenders and onion rings. Our server Judy did an outstanding job with our service. (Thank you Judy). We went upstairs to the “ghost bar”, didn’t see anything, but it is definitely creepy up there. Overall, excellent restaurant and the food is spectacular. Try the onion rings, best I ever had!!

Hands down, one of best little places in area. Food was delicious 😋 Brussels sprouts were some of best. ive ever had! Parking is limited and you may find across street. Not a good place to try to get into of you have handicap, wheelchair!!

Nice restaurant on the water. The food was pretty good. We had the conch fritters, fish dip and steamed oysters for starters. They all tasted good and were served promptly. For the entree I had the crab cakes and my husband had the tuna. The crab cakes were ok but my husband did not care for the tuna, it was a little to spicy for him. I tasted it and I liked it though. Our server was very nice but did not offer us any condiments for our meal or any refills for our drinks. I'm happy I tried it here but probably won't be back. The prices were good but just not what I was expecting for a fish camp.

St. Augustine Fish Camp is truly a gem that captures the essence of coastal dining! From the moment you step through the doors, you're greeted by a warm and inviting atmosphere that perfectly complements the stunning waterfront views. The menu is a seafood lover's dream, featuring a delightful array of fresh catches, expertly prepared to highlight their natural flavors. What truly sets this place apart, however, is the exceptional service. The staff is not just attentive; they radiate genuine passion for what they do. Our server was knowledgeable about the menu, providing fantastic recommendations that made our experience even more enjoyable. Their enthusiasm for the food and the local ingredients truly enhanced our meal. Every dish we tried was a masterpiece, from the perfectly grilled fish to the mouthwatering sides. The attention to detail in both presentation and taste is commendable. Plus, the cocktails are a must-try; they’re crafted with a mix of creativity and quality that elevates the entire dining experience. In short, St. Augustine Fish Camp is not just a place to eat; it’s an experience that leaves you feeling satisfied and eager to return. Whether you're a local or just visiting, this restaurant should be at the top of your list for a memorable meal paired with outstanding service. Highly recommend!

Just in town for a couple of days and stumbled upon this gem before going on a sunset cruise. This place was AMAZING! The food was absolutely delicious. Cooked to perfection and the flavors were perfect!!! I had the spicy seafood linguine minus the spicy and my boyfriend had the pork chop. Both were so, so good! Our server was so wonderful too! 10 out of 10 highly recommended! Just be sure to make a reservation before you go!!!

A must stop for us when we're in the area. Well thought out menu and excellent service from Paul. Started with sweet tea and a teeth numbing bourbon bliss cocktail. Followed by conch fritters, Mahi sandwich and shrimp & grits. All done perfectly. Do seek this gem out in the perfect waterfront location and linger.

My first time eating there. The hostess was nice and greated me. I was seated withing 2 minutes. The atmosphere was great. The waitress was nice and cheerful. She brought my drink quickly. I ordered salmon with potatoes and greens, a dozen oysters on the half shell, and a wedge salad with blue cheese. The salad was awesome. It was very fresh and crispy as it should be. The salmon was also delicious and very juicy. The potatoes and greens were also very good. Now the reason I only gave 4 stars. The oysters failed. As you can tell in the picture, they look mangled by the person who shucked them. They are not juicy. And the person who shucked them, theft them attached the the shell. I was really looking forward to some good oysters but that didnt happen. Other than the oysters which I dont recommend, everything was great. 😎

The Halibut on a butternut squash puree, and raspberry gastrique was mouth wateringly delicious. Pairs so well. The boil for 2 was amazing, hot, fresh and well seasoned. Scallops and shrimp were cooked perfect. The bread pudding and key lime pie were also great.

The food was so delicious! I wish I remembered our server's and hostess' names because they were super friendly and accommodating. When asked, our server gave us his recommendations. We got a couple that he recommended and they were delicious. I have a gluten allergy and he helped me navigate the menu to make sure my food was gluten free. Totally recommend!

What a remarkable experience. Courses were beautifully prepared, thoughtfully and knowledgeably presented. We enjoyed the tasting menu of 4 courses and a wine paring. Tiny restaurant but servers were so skilled at keeping waiting guests comfortable. The restaurant is expanding next door which should allow for more to enjoy on any given night.

My fiancé and I just popped in to see what the Llama was about and grab a cocktail before the concert down the street. The hostess was lovely and squeezed us in as it was reservations only. She said if you can be out before 7 and we said yes!! We were so grateful to get a table. The place smelled amazing! We wish would could have stayed for dinner but grabbed a few glasses of wine and sides and loved watching what they brought out of the kitchen. We are definitely going back to have dinner and try more. Every that came out of the kitchen smelled amazing or looked incredible. Such a cute place. Kind of strange to go out back to use the restroom but the food is worth it! We will be back for sure!

A gem of a restaurant. Went for a birthday celebration and it didn’t disappoint. The food was super fresh and delicious. We had the poached lobster appetizer which was wonderful and the yucca fritas were great with three dipping sauces. My husband had the pulpo (octopus) app and said it was amazing. The entrees kept the excitement going - the lamb was so fabulous I wanted one more bite. The risotto was perfectly cooked and had an array of seafood on top. The salmon had a very nice pistachio -huacatay pesto sauce which truly enhanced the fish flavor. And the lobster tail special was melt in your mouth memorable! We finished with the sacred valley - a wonderful mousse and the s’mores on fire which was so artfully presented it truly took our breath away. This is a fine dining destination. The restaurant is small so reservations are important. A winner!!!

We’ve had the pleasure of the dinner experience at Llama in the past it’s extraordinary every time so many layers of flavor and depth. This time we tried brunch and it was exceptional! Same as dinner packed with unique flavors and the best bottomless mimosas I’ve ever had - green cactus, guava, passion fruit, and a spiced corn (sounds bizarre but was delicious almost like mulled blackberry). The pumpkin waffles and breakfast sandwich were so insanely delicious. Can’t say enough great things about this place: hand crafted food, quality service, and a cozy Peruvian atmosphere. I didn’t catch our servers name but she was wonderful. Kendall usually takes care of us and she is the best attentive and sweet!! Definitely try this St. Augustine gem!

Absolutely fantastic experience at llama! The restaurant is quaint, intimate, and the food is out of this world. We had an absolutely incredible visit. We started off with a ceviche, and I had a seafood dish with a sticky rice and the seafood had octopus prawns shrimp, clams, muscles it was to die for. My husband got the lamb chops and he said they were some of the best he’s ever had. He finished the evening with the s’more dessert, which was fun, interactive and delicious. Great wine let as well. We will definitely return here when we come back to Saint Augustine.!

Everything is always so delicious, the portions are generous, and artfully plated. I love that they understand eyes eat first, it’s such a treat! We’ve sat at the same table every time, also a treat. I’m excited that they’ve expanded and have a new bathroom area. The brunch menu is nice too, I don’t want to eat normal shrimp and grits again after having their shrimp y choclo dish. I hope to keep coming here for many years to come.

ONE OF THE BEST RESTAURANTS ST. AUGUSTINE HAS TO OFFER!!!! My son and I dined in here last week when we were visiting from South Florida. From the moment we walked in Lindsay was such a friendly face. She was so helpful and so kind to us. Her and Alandra took care of us the entire evening. They gave us wonderful suggestions. We started with the chicharrones and the mango Ceviche to start. My son really wanted the chicharrones and I really wanted the mango Ceviche but let me tell you those chicharrones were the best chicharrones I've ever had in my life. The mango salsa was super tasty and refreshing. For entrees we couldn't decide because everything sounded so good so we decided to get two entrees and share them. We got the Tallarines Verdes and the Patarascha. THEY WERE INSANELY GOOD! In between our meal they also gave us these cute little drinks that were for pallet cleansers. I forget the name of the dessert but it was like nothing I've ever had before ! They even lit I don't know if it was Sage on fire but it was so good we put it in the dessert and ate it . The decor inside was so cozy and the food was so refined. This was the best Peruvian restaurant we've ever been to and my son and I are big time foodies. When we travel all we do is try new restaurants and Llmama is definitely going to be a place we're going to have to visit every time we come to St Augustine. Ask for Lindsay and Alandra.... They are hard workers, with friendly attitudes that really care about taking care of you.

Our anniversary dinner here was everything we could hope for. Service was spot on. The house favorite appetizer is the fried green tomatoes. Garnished with goat cheese, bacon, and pickled veggies, it was a masterpiece. My "conquistador" old fashioned was a wonderful take on the classic. My wife had the seafood platter, a fine mix of shrimp, scallops and flounder. I had the stuffed new york strip. Wow, what a fun take. Shrimp and boursin cheese filled the steak, with a herb and scallops butter on top. The parmesan saffron risotto was creamy and complimented all the other flavors. After dinner we went up to the top deck to enjoy the beignets. The view was almost as good as the fresh made donuts. They have something gooey inside, we think its cookie dough! Yum. Cheers!

This was our favorite restaurant in St Augustine because it hit the mark on all fronts. The service was amazing (ask for Shane for the best recommendations and very attentive service), the atmosphere was refined, but not stuffy, and the food was so refreshing. The fried gren tomatoes were so unique and full of flavor as were the scallops. The chocolate pie was also excellent.

I loved this place! The food and service were excellent! Meaghan was friendly and hard-working. She made my birthday celebration special. I loved the crab/corn soup, salmon, and hummingbird cake. The cake was a first for me and it was amazing! The flavors came together nicely for all that I ordered. It was a great dining experience!

Great place to eat. The views are spectacular, and the service was very good. We had lunch on a slow day in St. Augustine, but this restaurant can surely handle a large crowd. I recommend taking advice from wait staff, as they know what is good. Our server was very accommodating to a couple of picky eaters in our group, and that was helpful to us.

The host, server, and most of the food was great. The Canonball shrimp and lobster tails were big portions and really good. I would also recommend the Cannonball cocktail. The main dishes did take a while but we did go on a Saturday evening. Or Mac n cheese and potatoes were cold. We made reservations and we arrived 15 min early. We had to wait to exactly our reservation time in order to be seated.

My wife and I stopped into River & Fort for an early dinner date, and it turned out to be a really nice evening. We were seated right away (always a bonus), and chose to sit outside — the view was absolutely beautiful. It was a little noisy, but honestly, that’s part of the charm of dining in what feels like colonial New York City, right? Our server was friendly and attentive, and the food was impressive overall. We shared the stuffed New York Strip, which was full of flavor with a beautiful char and caramelization on the outside. The shrimp stuffed inside were cooked perfectly — juicy and tender. The steak itself was a bit overcooked for our liking, so I’d recommend ordering accordingly, and it could’ve been a touch hotter so the steak butter melted properly. The risotto was creamy and flavorful, and the stir-fried vegetables were surprisingly excellent — vibrant, fresh, and seasoned just right. When we saw the fries at the next table, we had to order some, and wow — totally worth it. Fresh, starchy, and sprinkled with just the right amount of sea salt. We wrapped things up with a Key Lime Crème Brûlée, which was a hit — tart and creamy with a perfectly caramelized top. The meringue was the cherry on top (or I guess, the cloud on top). All in all, River & Fort delivered a memorable meal with great flavors and a killer view. A few small tweaks could’ve made it perfect, but we’ll definitely be back.

Highly recommend this restaurant to anyone visiting. Went for lunch and had an amazing experience. I truly never write reviews but am writing this solely for the purpose of highlighting Walter, the waiter we had the pleasure of meeting. He was incredibly kind, funny and one of those people you recognize as "they don't make them like that anymore." Truly exceptional service cannot speak highly enough of him and the food was delicious. He recommended the key lime creme brûlée, and I was so glad he did. Would make a trip back in town just for the desert and exceptional service. Walter, thank you for being you.

My schedule was light on Friday so I took the family out. We got there around 4pm right before they got busy. Happy hour was 3-6pm(Sunday-Friday 3pm-6pm). Great prices and great tasting cocktails. We tried the Pesca Punch, Mantanzas Margarita, Vilano Vixen, Old Fashion. The kids chicken fingers and tots were mid. The Firecracker shrimp came with a sweet and spicy aioli. I would say that the Firecracker shrimp were worth getting. The band was very good. The views and ambience were great. Our server Jack was tentative and friendly.

High potential but inconsistent. When it’s good, it’s great. Unfortunately, they seem to be all over the place. Their branding is adorable and they have the cutest happy hour drinks. Some events have been great, others have been dead. Call ahead to make sure they will be open before getting hyped about plans.

My family and I had an amazing time at Pesca! We were seated quickly and the service was great. The food and drinks were the star of the show, though. Everything was delicious. If you like cheese, I highly recommend the brie appetizer! I'm still thinking about it. Shout-out to our server, Jack, who handled out 16 people group like a pro! Thank you Pesca for making our wedding dinner experience amazing!

We were staying at the Hyatt for 4th of July and went up for lunch the next day and again that evening to hear DJ Natural after fireworks. Lunch was amazing, we tried fish tacos, fritters and rum punch. 360 views of the beach, the rooftop pool and St Augustine in the distance.

Crispy chicken tacos...no mention of nuggets.....so so disappointed!! You can do so much better, I'm an adult so CHICKEN NUGGETS??? FOR $18? NUGGETS DONT EVEN FIT ON A TACO. ESP A SINGLE SHELL...JUST A MESS .had to chase our waitress to pay the bill. Band was great. Jimmy Buffett tribute esq. Nobody liked the fish. We have come to the conclusion it's all made from a bunch of air fryers!

Nice chill date night spot. The food was really good. Limited menu but the food was better than I expected. We will be back.

Ate on the rooftop with a large group of friends & it was an absolutely beautiful evening. The waitress was very nice. I got the brie appetizer & spring rolls to share and they were both delicious. I ordered the tuna poke bowl for dinner and it was outstanding. My friend did not care for the cod fritters at all & the rest of us tried a bite and agreed that they were not very tasty. Everything else was wonderful & will definitely come back with my family sometime. Their drink cups are adorable & they should defintely have extra on hand to sell. We were all disappointed that we couldn't buy any from them.

A definite must-try if you have dinner somewhere on the St Augustine coast and are looking for a place to grab cocktails. The martinis were perfectly strong, and they give you the entire shaker so the value for each drink is really great. I ordered the lemon martini and Nathan ordered the bikini martini. Both were amazing, and we will definitely revisit in the future.

I’ve been to this martini bar once before and really enjoyed it, which is why I decided to come back. This time I dined inside, and while the building is older (which is part of its charm), there was a noticeable “old” smell that took away from the atmosphere. The service was slower than expected, especially considering it wasn’t very busy, and the food was just okay — nothing that really stood out. Overall, it’s an alright spot, but my experience this time didn’t quite live up to my first visit.

We had such a fun and romantic night at Tini Martini Bar in St. Augustine! We grabbed a table outside, enjoyed the cool evening breeze, and people-watched while sipping our cocktails. The vibe was lively yet intimate and we even caught a horse and carriage ride passing by, lit up with beautiful colors, which added to the charm of the night. The service was excellent, and I loved that they left the mixer cups at the table, giving us an extra 2–3 pours with each drink. Such a nice touch! The martinis were delicious, and the whole setting made it feel like the perfect date night spot. If you’re visiting St. Augustine and looking for a place that’s romantic, relaxed, and fun, I’d highly recommend stopping by the Tini Martini Bar. Great cocktails, great atmosphere, and a perfect backdrop for a memorable evening.

We went mid-october and thiis was the cutest bar ever!! Very elegant and romantic. A little small but a great atmosphere! The martinis were delicious 🍸 the lobby decorations were Harry Potter themed. We would definitely go again if we're in the area!

I didn't catch our waiter's name, but he was incredibly friendly and professional and had great martini recommendations. Our 15 year old daughter was allowed to eat with us. For the menu price of the martini, we were able to get atleast 3 full glasses out of each shaker.

My fiancé and I have always loved this location. Can you beat the outdoor seating by the water, it takes you to an oasis immediately. The drinks are amazing, my go to is the cappuccino martini absolutely recommend. Last time I brought my mom along for the food and vibes and this location never disappoints. I recommend also the spinach omelet.

Drinks were good! But they only have drinks. Nice location w great views.

🍺A lovely place with a great atmosphere! Unfortunately, we had to leave earlier than planned because the restroom plumbing wasn’t working at the time. I really liked that the beer menu included the BU information—it would be even better if it also listed the types of hops used. Tried two lagers and one West Coast IPA, all of which were very good. 👍

Beers Amazing ! Place Amazing ! Why 1 Star ? Well, being new to the city and as a local business owner i feel very dissapointed with the service... Me and my wife feel like we where asking for something Free although someone next tome gave me some tips about the place the bartender didn't see very friendly when serving us. Honestly, i've felt this vive of discrimination before somewhere else long time ago in Alabama because we are Latin Americans... Anyways i'm not doing this to destroy it's so that we have more empathy, i been in hospitality business for more than 20 years. Friday July 11th 2025

Well thought out and executed design. I went in the early afternoon on weekday. It was a chill atmosphere. A few folks at the bar. About a dozen selections of beer. I gravitate towards honey beers considering I'm a beekeeper. They had a sour and another style that's in the pic. The sour was difficult to drink cause it makes your mouth pucker. I didn't stay after 1 drink. It's pretty good place to hand considering it's proximity to the old town. It's like one block from Alcazar.

Really liked this place. Beer was good but they have beer, wine, cocktails and even a THC seltzer! Nice atmosphere to chill for a beer. They also have their own food truck in the beer garden. We talked with the owner/brewmaster Doug and he’s a very personable guy. Very friendly. Even tho he was busy as can be, he still took time out to talk to us. Their brewing stuff is done on site too. They also have a great merch area, and hats are embroidered! Not the cheap iron ons. If your looking for a good beer and in the area this is the place to go!

Good brewery in St Augustine. Decent selection of brews and nice staff. They have music regularly and interesting seasonal beers.

Fun place to hang out and play darts or shuffle board while you enjoy some beer. The beer was good. It's obvious they are passionate about their craft and we can't wait to come back later and try other seasonal beers. However, the people working there were super friendly and you can get any combination of flight sized beers without being locked into just 4 or 5 like some places...you can even just buy one if you'd like.

My wife and I held our wedding weekend welcome drinks at Dog Rose and were simply blown away. Courtney was incredible to work with. She accommodated our every ask, and her staff ran an efficient, friendly bar service. All of our guests were wildly impressed. Dog Rose Brewing was their first impression of St Augustine Florida, and my wife and I are so grateful that Dog Rose played the role perfectly. Great beer, great staff, highly recommend.

Excellent food. It's hard to beat Columbia for good food. Great atmosphere. Plenty of selections on the menu to choose. The seafood paella made it to my plate. And the crab cakes are a must have if you are a fan of crab cakes. Everything was made to perfection. Our server was super friendly and helpful. She knew her way around the menu and had some great suggestions.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ First visit to The Columbia in St. Augustine, and it absolutely lived up to the hype. The atmosphere alone makes it worth the stop — historic building, beautiful tile work, and that old-Florida feel you just don’t get anywhere else. The place was busy, but everything ran smoothly. I had the 1905 Salad, made tableside — super fresh, crisp, and packed with flavor. The ropa vieja and flank steak was perfectly pressed, with just the right mix of crunch and melt. Everything tasted authentic and made with care, not rushed. Shoutout to Jason, who made the whole experience even better. His professionalism, patience, and attention to detail stood out. He checked in at the right times, knew the menu inside out, and genuinely made us feel welcome — that kind of service makes all the difference. Overall, The Columbia is one of those places that reminds you why St. Augustine’s food scene is so special — great food, great people, and real pride in what they do. Highly recommend.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Consistently Amazing Dining Experience 🍽️ No matter which Columbia Restaurant location I visit—Ybor City, St. Armands Circle, or St. Augustine—the experience is always exceptional 🌟. The atmosphere, service, and food are top-notch 👌. Must-try items include the refreshing sangria 🍷, warm Cuban bread 🥖, and the iconic 1905 Salad 🥗. For entrees, you can’t go wrong, but my personal favorite is the Cannelloni de Langosta 🦞—absolutely delicious! This is a must-enjoy dining experience wherever you find one. Highly recommended for anyone who appreciates flavorful Cuban-Spanish cuisine 🇨🇺🇪🇸 and great hospitality 💛.

We stopped into The Columbia Restaurant in St. Augustine for lunch after a hot morning of sightseeing, and it turned out to be the perfect place to take refuge from the heat. We sat upstairs on the second floor, which was fairly busy and a bit lively — not quiet, but not uncomfortably loud either. It actually added to the atmosphere and energy of the place. Our server was excellent — very polite, attentive, and genuinely helpful with recommendations. We kept things light and ordered sandwiches and plantains, and both were very pleasant. The sandwiches were flavorful and fresh, and the plantains were perfectly sweet and well-prepared. There’s no dedicated parking, so you’ll need to walk from wherever you can find a spot nearby, but it’s worth it. Between the beautiful historic setting, great service, and flavorful food, The Columbia is definitely a place I’d love to return to — next time for dinner.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Absolutely loved my visit here! The shop had beautiful dish ware and pottery! The chicken sandwich was fantastic tender, juicy, and had flavor. All the sandwiches we tried were great, and the salad was huge. The bathroom was clean and well-maintained. The dining room is absolutely beautiful, with a warm and inviting atmosphere that made the whole meal even better. This place combines great food, excellent cleanliness, and a lovely setting, a must-visit if you’re in Florida! Very happy with the filling food for lunch!

This place is great, has a unique traditional feel to it! Food is super tasty, lots of good options. Take your time here, allow 2 hours to enjoy, not a place to rush. Recommend. Kudos to our waiter Miguel from 🇪🇸 Side note: this is St.Augustine, parking might be a bit challenging but it’s very walkable so not really a biggie

Awesome lunch along with excellent service by Maraiya B. Great food nice atmosphere, fountains on patio around the seating area. Plenty of seating with choice of indoor, patio or outdoor seating. They first brought the freshly baked bread to the table then lunch We had the 1/2 1905 salad with 1/2 a Cuban and it was a large portion. Along with a piece of the famous key lime pie ( to die for) to go. Plenty of parking and it is free with validation. Placed right off of St George street and it was busy. Kids menu and some vegetarian choices. Gift shop in rear

We were looking forward to this place as it came highly recommended by a friend. The service was fine. The atmosphere is nice, especially if seated by a window or outside with great views. The food, however, the nachos, were bland and definitely not enough chips for the amount of topping. Fisherman platter and shrimp dinner... let me start with the good. It was cooked perfectly. However, the breading did not have much flavor by itself. The coleslaw... I'm not sure what happened, but we both thought it was inedible. Honestly, the most tasty things were the fries and the cocktail sauce, one of the best cocktail sauce I've tried. If we ever return and try new items, I will update the review.

Fantastic service and fantastic view from upstairs balcony. Emily our server was on top of it. Drinks were prompt and tasty. Great selection of house cocktails and craft beers combined, something you don't often see. Had the Paella for 2, a house salad with beer cheese soup, a Mediterranean Salad with Ahi Tuna and a Blackened Fish Sandwich. Overall the food was good. The beer cheese soup was oily and the fish portion of the fish sandwich was malnourished. It should have been bigger. Using "reservations" is a bit of a misleading substitute for priority seating. And while the wait was minimal, it was still a case of putting us back into the queue. So a star lost there for the above items. But otherwise a fun experience with great service, plenty of good seating options, fantastic views and an enjoyable atmosphere.

Went in on a Saturday around 3:30. As we waited for our table at the bar, the bartender served us immediately. Great drinks. When seated at a table the waitress took about 20 minutes to come take our orders. Thankfully we still had our drinks from the bar while waiting for her as we looked at the menu. When she arrived she took our orders. We got the fried shrimp appetizer that came out in 5-10 minutes. As we waited for our entrees, within 20 minutes the waitress came by to tell us it would be a little longer for our food and offered to bring us a basket of bread while we waited. The bread came out and was hot but very hard on the outside. Our entrees finally came and were very tasty. I got the shrimp tacos and my boyfriend got the jambalaya. He said it was so good just a lot of grease at the bottom. Overall would not come back on a Saturday but any other day for the good food and drinks.

Great place, very nice bar and restaurant upstairs, old school bar on the ground floor. Good selection of beer, approximately 25 taps. Food is good, we had the Jambalaya, just the right amount of spice. Service was great. They only do one 5 beer flight, "Florida Flight", no substitutions. They are pretty good about letting you taste a few before you order. Good stop!

This is a great brewery right in Downtown St. Augustine! It’s two floors so they’ve got plenty of seating so hopefully you won’t have to wait long for a table if they’re busy. We sat on the second floor patio. Our waitress was really nice and attentive to us. I only got appetizers since I wasn’t all that hungry. I got the Calamari and the Pretzels with beer cheese. Both were insanely good! The pretzels were hot and fresh, the calamari was crispy, and the beer cheese was good! Overall, I’ll definitely make a stop here again.

Busy place with good service, spirit-ful drinks, delicious food and beautiful views. Tasty apps, especially the artichoke dip. The tuna dishes are incredible, the shrimp and grits was good but a bit dry. They have paper straws which I understand but hateeee. The bar is downstairs and they had live music which wasn't as loud upstairs where the restaurant is and it gives it a good vibe 👍

The shrimp and grits is more like bacon and grits. Barely any sauce and more bacon than shrimp. Extremely disappointed with their food. This was my second time there and again another disappointment. :-( Their nachos were okay. The waiter that served me on the balcony was nice. An expensive experience for not good food.

We ate in the restaurant, which was crowded but amazing. Drinks were tasty. Food was outstanding--from the Beggars Purse to the fundamental favorite cheeseburger. Live music was good but made the atmosphere a bit loud for average conversation. Still, the talent was good, so we enjoyed the whole experience. Certainly worth a stop.

Location was great. Easy to walk to while visiting other sites. Food was good and husband enjoyed the extensive selection of Irish whiskey. Wait staff was just ok. No real greeting when we arrived or when we left. We asked to sit outside, but the table was wobbly so we asked to move and went inside. Could be cleaner, tables felt kind of icky and just in need of a deep clean.

We didn't have a wait and got to sit downstairs and the food was absolutely delicious!! The adult beverages were soo good. and its such a great vibe! We would have loved to sit outside but it was pouring down rain! We did get to go check out the upstairs bar area and its soo pretty!! Definitely go check it out!!

As we were visiting Saint Augustine this week, we happened upon your Irish pub. Aaron Our waitress was amazing. she was very attentive to our needs and always smiling. We even stopped by as we were walking by this morning and saw her there and said hello one more time before going back home. The food was amazing as well as the drinks. we definitely will be returning

Wow! So good we stopped in twice during our visit. Sat at the bar and Brandon's service was superb. Mussels in cider were delicious, ordered them both times. Partner ordered a Ruben sandwich that was served hot and juicy. On the second visit, he enjoyed the fish and chips.

MUST-GO dining spot when you’re in St. Augustine! BEST Mac & cheese iv ever had! The shepherd’s pie was comforting, filling, and full of flavor. The Reuben sandwich was big, savory, and delicious, while the wedge salad was creamy, flavorful, and worth the effort of cutting through. The chicken sandwich was large, tender, and had perfectly seasoned breading, plus the ranch was rich and milky (my favorite kind). Moderate noise level with a nice balcony to enjoy. Our server was on top of his game and made sure we had everything we needed.

Beautiful Irish pub. Extensive Irish whiskey list. Food was good. Wife's fish and chips was a healthy portion of cod fish, fries and key lime slaw. My burger was good but a little overcooked. Ordered medium but it was a little dry for such a big burger. Our server Michelle was great. We'd definitely go there again.

Finally a beef Wellington that is on point! The service was phenomenal, the beef Wellington was so far the best I've had in the area. The warm wedge salad was mouthwatering The atmosphere was very peaceful and beautiful! Would highly suggest this place and I will be back to try the

We went here today for brunch, mainly because I saw a photo of a traditional eggs, Benedict and an eggs Benedict Arnold, sausage, patty, sausage gravy…. And while those were good, especially the sausage one., I am giving this five stars because of the schnitzel!!!! Go order the schnitzel !!! Now! I spent 15 years in the restaurant business and this is one of the best meals I’ve ever had! On top of that it’s affordable ! Cheers!

We had a lovely evening and the food was delicious. We stared with some old fashions. Began the meal with the salad and lobster & sweet pepper soup. Then moved on to the prime rib and halibut with lobster champagne butter sauce. We didn't have room for dessert but I saw some in passing other tables so it's definitely on my list for next time.

Been to Sunday brunch here a few times. Nice historic building. Prices are definitely a bit high for what you get, but that's the tourism tax. Duck Waffles are excellent. Their home fries are soft and mushy, I don't recommend them. Men's room is too run down for somewhere this pricey. Gratuity is added in here automatically, and our waitress did not disclose this which always rubs me the wrong way.

Oh gosh,everything about our dinner was so perfect.2 weeks ago,we had our anniversary dinner at a Whataburger,after a busy day ,that was about all that was open.we joked about it,but we knew we would eventually a ll do it right.and we sure did at Raintree!our server was superb,the meals and desserts were sublime,and the restaurant is beautiful and welcoming.

Raintree Restaurant boasts a charming atmosphere and friendly staff, creating an inviting setting for a meal in St. Augustine. However, our brunch experience was marred by significant service and food quality issues that overshadow its appeal. The ambiance is undeniably pleasant, with a warm, welcoming vibe. The staff, in general, exudes friendliness, but our server’s performance was a major letdown. Described as a “social butterfly,” she was flighty and frequently absent, leaving us waiting excessively for basic requests. It took 15 minutes to get a to-go box and another 10 for the check, despite requesting both simultaneously. We overheard her sharing her life story—apparently, she “grew up” in the restaurant—at another table, not even hers, which explains her tendency to mill about as if she lived there rather than worked there. This lack of focus left us neglected and frustrated. The food was equally disappointing, suggesting the kitchen was operating with its “C or D team” during brunch. The Beef Wellington, meant to be served rare (120°-125°F), arrived raw, purple, and room temperature—completely unappetizing. The eggs Benedict featured “poached” eggs that were clearly microwaved, not poached, resulting in an unmistakable texture. The burger had potential with a good grind, size, and bun, but lacked seasoning and was overcooked to a dry, gray mess instead of the requested medium (135°-140°F) with a hot-pink center. The home fries, likely air-fried in an unheated air fryer, were dry inside with a rubbery skin. The grits, however, were a bright spot, flavorful and well-prepared. We didn’t complain about the food, chalking it up to an off day and planning to return for dinner to try their reportedly wonderful dishes. We requested a box for the uneaten two-thirds of the raw Beef Wellington, intending to cook it properly at home. When the server finally returned with the check, we were shocked to see a 15% gratuity automatically added for our party of two. No signage indicated this was standard policy, which felt deceptive. I typically tip 20% even for poor service, but since the server preemptively awarded herself 15% for subpar performance, we left it at that. Ultimately, Raintree’s combination of inattentive service, poorly executed dishes, and the audacity of an automatic gratuity for a party of two left a sour taste. If this is their standard practice, it’s a sign of deeper issues—perhaps they should pay their staff better wages instead of relying on mandatory tips to compensate for lackluster service. Regrettably, Raintree is off our list of recommended dining spots in St. Augustine. We won’t be returning, and neither should you if you value attentive service and properly cooked food. Note: This review reflects a single brunch experience. Others may have different experiences, but based on ours, Raintree falls short of its reputation which brought us here that day.

Raintree combined Saint Augustine’s histoic feeling with amazing food. Damion was a great waiter and the food was perfect. Definitely recommend checking it out!

I was impressed with the quality of the food. I ordered “The Shrimp Plater” with fries and coleslaw. (12) very good decent size shrimp. They were lightly breaded and cooked to perfection!. The side of fries were very well done and crispy. And the coleslaw hat, just the right amount of sauce. The place is a bit pricey $$$… although the food is very good. My server was excellent, she was very attentive and gave good suggestions as well as positive comments regarding the quality of the food served at this restaurant. I would definitely recommend others to come and eat at this place.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I had an amazing experience at king Fish Grill! The food was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. The atmosphere was welcoming and enjoyable, but what really made the visit outstanding was our server, Candace. She was friendly, attentive, and went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. Excellent service paired with delicious food—I’ll definitely be coming back!

We went out to try this place on opening night - the food was delivered fairly quick- we tried the spinach artichoke dip (it was okay - the bread chips were tasty but had to ask for more to finish the dip) ; my wife tried the chicken picato with mashed potatoes & broccoli- although we had to ask the waitress for the potatoes because her meal came out with rice instead and I ordered the horseradish Mahi with rice & broccoli - none of the food had a wow factor that could justify the price - however the service was outstanding- she even helped us get a better discount- not sure we will be back

Okay but can we talk about how stunning the new Kingfish Grill location is?! From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was so coastal and classy. And our server, Candace, was an absolute gem. She was so warm, attentive, and just had that perfect mix of professional and friendly that makes you feel instantly at home. She made GREAT recommendations, kept everything flowing perfectly, our glasses were never empty and honestly made the whole experience next-level amazing. Between the gorgeous new space, incredible food, and flawless service — this visit was a 10/10. If you haven’t been to the new Kingfish Grill yet, go and ask for Candace!

Tried the new location and we were so impressed! The space is beautifully redone stylish, clean, and welcoming. We ordered the mahi sandwich, crab cakes, and the Thai peanut salad with mahi (request with sauce on the side), and everything was delicious. The fish was fresh, a generous portion, and cooked to perfection. Rachel took great care of us she was attentive, quick, and offered helpful recommendations. We’re already looking forward to our next visit.

The food is great, the owner is down to earth kinda guy. The staff is amazing and we have gotten to know most all of them since we come every Friday night. Our cousins have been eating there every week since they opened and now we live here it is also a Friday night dinner. We love it here and encourage you to check out their new location in cobblestone as soon as possible. Special shout out to Ashley for always taking care of us and chatting with us when we are there. Also great job to Christine, we had the pleasure of being her guests her first night and by our second visit she already had our drinks down and my food since I order the same thing.

Food was excellent were seated right away. Our waitress was accommodating and attentive was by several times to see if everything was good. Did think the Diet Coke tasted a little funky she changed it out for ice tea.

We had a great meal at Casa Reina. We went for a late lunch and were seated at a prime outdoor table overlooking the Bridge of Lions. The entire restaurant is beautifully decorated especially the bar on the 2nd floor. We started with cocktails which were delicious. Our waitress was fantastic. We sampled 3 types of tacos. All were excellent. A nice dining experience.

Highly recommend this place, loved the outdoor seating and everything we ordered was delicious. Really big portions for the price. For dinner we got the following items: hibiscus margarita, jalapeño rellenos for an appetizer was great for the whole table and had such a great flavor. For the main meal the seafood combo enchiladas were delicious and the house made hot sauce with the blue crab cream sauce made it. Our waiter recommended the yellow rice with the pinto beans which I thought paired great with the enchiladas. Plenty of food, we even had leftovers. Will be back!

What a great place! We went early to miss the big crowd at dinner. The service was fabulous, the food was excellent and you have a choice of inside or outside seating. The place is huge... Lots of tables. We tried the Crusted Grouper and the Pork Belly Tacos both were excellent! I'd like to go back and try more of the menu.

I understand that it is practically impossible to find authentic Mexican cuisine, however, I expected more from this restaurant. For starters, there are no people at the entrance who speak Spanish, even though I greeted them in the restaurant's native language. The hostess responded in English. Afterwards, I waited around 40 minutes, which is not a waste of time when the food is so good, and it's not that bad at all. The restaurant is very nice, its menu is promising, I really liked the service (even though no one served me in Spanish). Finally, the dessert is extremely delicious, perhaps the best I've had since I arrived in the United States. However, I prefer to hold back on my desire for this dessert until they tell me they have coat racks or at least lend me a chair to put my wife's backpack on so I don't have to carry it throughout dinner.

My husband and I came here for lunch. The food and drinks were amazing. Service is top notch. Atmosphere on a hot day is top tier. If this were the evening, I would bet there would be a wait, and would be okay with it. Will come back here again on my next trip.

Celebrated our 10 year anniversary here. Went about 5:00pm on Friday afternoon and sat upstairs outside with no wait. Bartender Steven(?) was very spot on with his service and we were very appreciative of that. Ordered a house margarita, a paloma, and a regular mojito. All great tasting and very well made. Ordered the Jalapeño Rellenos as an appetizer, and the Tequila Lime Grouper (for me) and Carnitas Platter (wife) for our entrees. For dessert we ordered the Churros. Pretty good despite one still being a little cold in the middle but even that one was still good. Overall, the food portions were generous and speed it all came out was great. Not too bad in terms price either. Definitely would recommend visiting for a full dinner or even a quick bite while sitting outside and looking over the bayfront.

The service was excellent. The food is some of the best Mexican cuisine ever. The calamari appetizer was cooked perfectly and plated with just the right amount of sauce. The tacos super fresh. The steak cooked just right with an amazing hot truffle sauce on the side. Megan, our server did a fantastic job. The only concerns I have with this restaurant is the furniture and the music. The chairs are super tight in the hip, uncomfortable, and don’t even have cushions. It almost makes the guest want to spend a little less time there, although the food was so good. The chairs absolutely gotta go. Replace with something comfortable that fits into your decor. We didn’t understand the music in the restaurant. The Music played in the background doesn’t really identify with anything Mexican. The food superior, even the decor of the restaurant like the tiles and walls made you feel perfectly in a Mexican setting. But the music in the background doesn’t fit at all into this scene. Overall, this place is excellent.

Overpriced and disappointing. Tacky decor tries to be more than it is. There is a distance between well done tacky and just cheap tacky, maybe due to the age of the place. Seating wasn’t great, booth with very straight backs and worn out cushion. Our server was very nice and tried hard even if there were kitchen/bar delays. The “catch of the day” was already out at 7:30 on a weekday night, which is sad when you go to a seafood restaurant. Bread service was $8 with a very small loaf that reminded us exactly of the frozen take home baguettes from Costco. Wellington appetizer was bland with tasteless overcooked beef tips. Pitcher of Sangria took nearly 20 min to come out, but tasted like a bottle of house red dumped into a pitcher with ice and a few slices of fruit, no taste of fruitiness or juice. Ultimately just watered down wine. Entrees were better, but the quality wasn’t reflective of the cost. My wife’s tenderloin and shrimp consisted of fairly fatty beef tips. For a total bill of $220+ for 4 people, it didn’t deliver.

The food was amazing! We did make a reservation so we were seated in the private dining area. It was a Friday night and the place was very busy, louder in the main room. Our waiter and the bartender were extremely friendly, making us laugh the entire time. Will definitely go back on our next trip to St Augustine.

Delicious! We had the lobster egg rolls (not pictured) along with Seafood & Grits, Trigger Fish, Salmon and Red Snapper. Will definitely return!! The staff was great, especially Stephany.

We walked to this restaurant from our nearby Edgewater Hotel. The food is top quality and presented beautifully. My husband has the tuna and it was delicious. I had the blackened flounder which was also great. It was a little spicy for my taste, but they are not afraid of flavor here. Your taste buds will thank you.

Delicious drinks, wonderful waitstaff and incredible food. Please don’t miss this St Augustine gem. Save room for the peach cobbler

What a find! This place is off the charts amazing. The food is phenomenal, the atmosphere is delightful, and the staff is so nice and friendly. Shout-out to our server, Stephanie, who was hands down the best server we've ever had anywhere! The scallop and shrimp appetizers were to die for, and the entrees were just as good! The Furikake Crusted Ahi Tuna, Surf & Turf Fried Rice, and Spicy Cashew Beef were all out of this world, and we look forward to trying the entire menu on our future visits to St. Augustine. Add this place to your itinerary!

I came to the restaurant for a cocktail hour during a wedding and the service was really great. The leadership and staff provided us were great and the private room was excellent for the occasion with plenty of space! I think the drinks were really good too and reasonably priced. I was able to try the fried rice, and I would say it's a 4/5 and the conch chowder a 3/5. Make sure you don’t arrive during peak hours or take ride share because parking is limited.

Nice pub to go to while visiting st Augustine. Paid parking or you can free park across the alley. We got the Curry pub fries which were very tasty and good. For main course we got the Mac & cheese 🧀 and it was really yummy! Cheese sauce was made really well! A lot of places close at 9 so this was great to go late night Prices are very fair Curry fries were $11 Mac & cheese was $16 100% recommend

Best lamb burger ever! I live in Austin, TX, and we came here two years ago , my boyfriend has been dreaming about this burger ever since. We finally came back, and it’s still just as amazing! The vibes and cocktails are on point, the late-night hours are perfect, and the service is wonderful. Barley Republic, you’re doing it right! 👏🍔🍸

We waited a long time for our order, but the burgers were delicious and the beer was good. It's a fun place. You can sit on the veranda. But the tables could use some updating.

Great experience in a dinner for 4. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed their meals. Food was delicious and flavorful. Cocktails were interesting and tasty. Prices reasonable. Susan was a wonderful server. Loved that the music was reasonable volume and we could easily talk.

My husband & I were walking the Historic downtown St. Augustine area when we stumbled upon this little pub. Thought we'd give them a try. Once i side we saw a sign advertising $5 happy hour food and drink specials. My husband decided to get the $5 smash burger and the $5 wings. While I chose to get the brussel sprout appetizer and poutine! First off, we waited a long time for our food when finally another waiter came to our table and said he had accidentally given our food to another table and they were making our food again! Okay, sure, it happens! We finally get our food. My husband's wings & burger were decent, nothing crazy to write home about. The brussel sprouts were HORRIBLE! I love brussel sprouts but these were woodsy & gross! There were supposed to have "applewood bacon, caramelized shallots & diced green apples tossed with honey"! I never got one piece or taste of bacon or the apples!!! I had to pull several "stick" like pieces out of my mouth while eating these! I did not finish them and my husband even tried them and also agreed NOT GOOD! So disappointing! But this is what really chapped my hide.... I asked for a little bit of extra gravy for my poutine and after my husband paid the bill I said that seems extremely high for what we got.... I start looking at the itemized bill ( we had to ask for because when you pay they just bring a hand held machine and you pay, you don't even see the itemized bill first) and they had charged me $3 for e tea gravy and charged for my husbands blue cheese that came with his wings & had charged for another small item I can't remember right now!!!! In my eyes,........ since we had to wait DOUBLE THE TIME FOR OUR FOOD DUE TO A WAITERS ERROR why are you charging me for some extra gravy!?!? And not offering to just comp it to make up for the mistake!!!!! Literally that's all they would have had to do to make me happy!!!! It's called customer service!!!!! I do not recommend!!!

I ordered the Lamb Burger — absolutely delicious, juicy, and full of flavor! 😋 The atmosphere was energetic and lively, which made the experience even better. 🔥 The prices are fair for the location and quality.😅 I highly recommend trying the fried pickles while you wait — they’re incredible! 🤩Everything was excellent.✌🏻👌🏻

Great small place. The food was awesome. I recommend the Bangers and Mash. Very filling and tasteful. The Fried Oreos are a must. Drinks were resonable, and it's not directly on George Street, so there is not a lot of foot traffic.

During our visit from Maryland, we received a warm welcome, marked by friendly smiles and positive attitudes. The $5 tour and tasting proved to be an exceptional value, resulting in the purchase of six high-quality wines and a port. Our tour guide, DJ, provided outstanding service.

The atmosphere was cozy and inviting. The service was good. I appreciated the little thoughtful details, like putting our names on the reservation card. The food was good, especially the lobster biscuit! We had Seafood platter, shrimp itself was not tasty but the broth was good. The only downsides were that they didn’t offer custom drinks—for example, I ordered a martini with gin but was only given the standard drink menu—and the menu has changed, but the website hasn’t been updated.

We went for my birthday and I will definitely be coming back to try more of the menu! Everything was great and food was even better. The Blood In The Water drink was delicious. The lobster bisque and ceviche were both Devine! I didnt like the duck personally but my husband loved the short ribs. My server was great and helpful with the menu. 5 stars all around.

Delightful staff. Awful food. Ridiculous prices for the quality. Ordered their signature shrimp dish, the duck, filet mignon and Brie appetizer. Only the steak was acceptable. The shrimp dish had an off taste. The Brie dish was nothing, and I've never had tougher duck. For the three of us with no alcohol, I paid $207. Never again. Never.

Sebastian & crew always do an amazing job. Lunch was absolutely spectacular the other day. Pictured is the shrimp & crab salad over greens & fresh avocado, as well as the shrimp & pork belly po boy! Absolutely amazing!

First time at the rooftop. They have a new craft cocktail menu with fresh pressed, locally-made mixers that are absolutely phenomenal. The Don Norberto is a poetic reference to Chef Norberto’s father, and a beautifully balanced and well crafted spin on the classic espressotini with an iconic marshmallow foam. Throw in a cheese board and it’s a day to remember for the girlies! Great chill spot before date night inside as well.

I am amazed at not only the quality of the food but the service. It has been years since I have had the quality of food and service provided by an establishment. I will become a regular customer of this place moving forward.

Difficult to find but it’s a waterfront treasure. Fish and chips excellent and shrimp and grits spectacular. Waterfront location is a bonus. Service was prompt and professional. As a disabled person… the outside deck is concerning —- suggest board repair and leveling for improved wheelchair access. Overall—a wonderful dining experience! Recommend!!!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We had such a great time at Hurricane Patty’s! Our waitress Heather was super sweet, friendly, and attentive — she really made our visit enjoyable. It’s a bit hard to reach the restaurant by phone, but we decided to take a chance and drive there for oysters. Unfortunately, they didn’t have oysters that day, but we caught their Happy Hour Wednesday deal — buy one entrée, get one free. We tried the Hurricane Shrimp and Mussels, both were delicious! I also noticed they have an All You Can Eat Snow Crab Monday special for $44, which sounds amazing — definitely coming back for that! Great local spot with a relaxed vibe and nice waterfront views. Totally worth a visit! 🦐🦀🌴

Stopped in while on vacation. Good service and pretty good food. I ordered the fish and chips. Tasted like others I have had, but the key lime tartar sauce was excellent. My husband ordered the key lime shrimp bowl and really enjoyed it. I would recommend!

This place was recommended but unfortunately was a disappointment for us. Our server Diana was the only bright spot. She was friendly and attentive. We were seated right away as they weren't busy at all. We were told by Diana the many things they were out of, as were other people when they were ordering. One couple walked out when they were told what they wanted was out. We ordered our drinks and the raw oysters from Diana and they were brought in a timely manner. My husband said the oysters were good. He ordered the grouper which came with Floribbean rice, coleslaw and broccoli. He said nothing had any flavor unfortunately. I ordered Patty's Crazy Crab Cakes that came with 3 crab cakes, Floribbean rice and coleslaw. The crab cakes did have a good deal of crab but not much flavor. Neither one of us finished our meals. Maybe it was just an off day for them, but I'm not sure we would go back.

Funky place a little hard to find. Food and service was good. Not so much with cocktails. Bar didn't really know how to make Old Fashions or Manhattans. Very poor house bourbon.

Our server was delightful! My daughter came to visit and wanted to try alligator. She found an appetizer on the menu and was going to order that for her dinner but our waitress steered her towards the gator tacos, a better choice. My brother had a burger, I had a shrimp and black bean bowl. The food was tasty, hot, and plentiful. Too hot to sit outside, but there is generous outdoor seating. Prices were reasonable for our meals.

We tried Hurricane Patty's out on vacation. Great little restaurant right on the water! Our only complaint was they were out of a few menu items but what they did have more than made up for it! Very good food and big servings!

I'm a little older so I wouldn't generally hang out there on the weekend at night. However, it's a great place and the staff is awesome. Also, if you're 20 or 30 something, it's a great spot to meet people.

Went 10/13 on Monday for Monday night football with my gf. JJ was awesome attentive and kind. Went back 10:15pm on 10/14 a Tuesday was greeted and IDed by a kind man and then went in to the bathroom while my gf was going to order drinks. 7 minutes went by she was never approached the bartender was just chatting with people, she then also went to the bathroom after a while we both came out at about 10:25 and the female bartender was just texting on the end of the bar still ignoring us so we ended up leaving. Absolutely horrible behavior men’s bathroom was clean tho.

I don’t recommend this place. We went there to have some drinks, we had one and was enough… the bartender was so rude. I put $2 tip on the bill but I think they didn’t like that because they still added $4 to my bill. That’s just ridiculous. If you don’t offer a good service you need to understand it’s not mandatory. Don’t go there!!!!

Bartender sucks rumple minze is the worst drink 🤮🤮 and he made the worst LIT I’ve ever had. Tipped him better than I should have!! I asked for a strong drink not the strongest ! Gave me a 50 percent alcohol shot when I already was drunk! Definitely doing that jerk bartender thing! No wonder why he doesn’t have any regulars that were there. Place was empty, pathetic!

My wife and I tried to go in for a drink last night and the bouncer who was checking for ID was a complete jerk off for no reason, mind you we look way over 21. He couldn't see the date on my wifes ID and when she went to take it out of her wallet he tried to yank it out but ended up with her concealed carry permit instead and yelled at her that that doesn't work as identification even tho he was the one who yanked the wrong ID from her. He also made me pull up my shirt in the rudest way to see if I had any weapons (btw I didn't). I would not recommend this place at all, dont walk but run from this place. After letting us in we turned around and walked right out. Definitely gives off a rough not safe crowd vibe. Absolutely disgusting behavior.

BEWARE!! THEY WILL CHANGE THE TIP ON YOUR TAB!! They charged an extra 45.00 dollar tip on my card. I had a $10.07 tab, I put a $5 dollar tip, WHICH IS GENEROUS CONSIDERING THE TAB WAS $10.07. I check my bank account later on and I’m being charged $55.07. Very trashy, ungrateful, and extremely inappropriate of the establishment.

Don't know who gave this establishment less then 5 stars but shame on them. Its a classy joint, yummy food, try the wings. Fantastic specials 1/2 price wings and 1.50 drinks on Tuesdays. Not far off the water, great stop for the college drunk crowd or family types coming off the pontoon boat. Jeff Morrison %100 diggs the white Lion.

Went here on a Thursday night because we heard the live music from outside. We were only going to stop in for a few songs and a drink, ended up staying all night because the band was so good! Oh and by the way, we came back the next night specifically for the music. It was a different band but still just as great! Shoutout to the tall bouncer, he was so friendly and was enjoying himself just as much as we were while watching the bands perform. Would highly recommend this place for people who enjoy a chill vibe, live music, and a dive bar vibe. We will definitely be back next time we’re in the area.

Trade Winds Lounge is hands-down our favorite bar in downtown St. Augustine. Whenever we’re out for date night, it’s our first choice to grab a quick pint and catch some live music. The bartenders are always friendly, the atmosphere feels authentic and laid-back, and the music is consistently top-notch. It’s a true local gem we keep coming back to.

By far the worst bar I have ever been to. Bar tenders are incredibly rude especially the girl with dreads. You aren’t allowed to stand or dance unless you are in a small area by the stage. They provided no explanation as to why this was the case. It blows my mind that any body who owns a bar would run it this way. Good band though. Will not return.

we went last night was my 21st birthday!! was having a great time had went to literally ever bar in st. augustine was so exited to end my night here until they tried to tell me my id and military id was fake when im fact its definitely not the old bald man the bartender clearly rude and needs to get his eyes checked.

We had a lot of fun celebrating our one year wedding anniversary here. The bartender Holly was amazing. The place was so packed there weren't even any seats but she still found some for us. The live music was awesome and kept us entertained! We will definitely be back when we're in the area again.

Super fun, great staff - make sure you don't miss the popcorn buffet. Spent the better part of our two nights in town enjoying the live music of Mark Hart (super fun guy, excellent playlist - enthusiastic spokesperson for the popcorn buffet) and chair dancing (and even out of your chair dancing) multi-genre music from Salty Daug. The two man Jackhammer band played rock tunes from up and down the ages. Bartenders and waitstaff Matt, Sara, Angie P, Eric, Holly and Julie were super attentive and treated these visiting sailors like we were long time friends.

Only reason for the two stars was because the band was amazing. Blond bartender got angry because we didn’t want to start a tab, she says “I’m not going to keep doing this” (we got 3 rounds of 3/4 beers). The dreads waitress looks to be the most miserable person in the world. She is mean to anyone she might have to walk around. I’m a local, and I’ll go there once in a while thinking maybe this time it will be different, but nope, it never is. You must sit like a zombie as you listen to music (who can do that), or you can go over to the side stage on a small platform and dance. It’s dumb! No other bar in town treats people the way this place does. It was once a great place to go, but now the fun has been sucked out of it thanks to miserable staff and ridiculous rules.

My wife and I enjoyed bringing her grandparents here for a drink. We enjoyed a few drinks and the live music. The view of Castillo de San Marcos with a cool breeze made for a great atmosphere. A few draft beers were tapped at noon on a Saturday, but the service was quick. There was limited seating with only a few stools per table. We will definitely grab a drink here again when visiting St Augustine.

Open air place right across street from fort. Great service! Great drinks...the Runner was fabulous! Don't know about the person on Yelp that said they had the worst rum and coke 😆

Great little dive bar with great prices! This spot usually has live music on the weekends, and is always a good time with a great bar layout. It is really close to downtown St. Augustine and pricing tagged in this review is based on having a few rounds of drinks! Love this place!!

Service was excellent at first until after we were there for 4 hours and the manager actually came into work. He started getting nasty with us. He told my son to stand in a certain spot by the bar, which my son complied but it wasn’t good enough. He got nasty with my son even though he complied with him and we were the only ones outside in the area we were in and my great nephew was kicking a rubber duck around and he threw us out and threatened to call the cops on us. My niece wanted to pay her tab and he told her to get off HIS property and that he was going to call the cop’s. The bartenders were amazing but unfortunately the owners have a manager who should not be in the position that he is in. He did not ruin our night, we took our business elsewhere to a much more friendlier atmosphere.

Went here the other day as we were in the area and last time we really enjoyed the no name bar. Went to the bartender and asked for a drink and I haven’t had someone show me this level of disgust for trying to order a drink. She was on her phone the whole time of the order and was just flat out rude to whatever I said to her when I was nothing but polite. This bar went from a happy memory to a really negative one real quick. I won’t be returning and won’t be recommending it to friends in the future. (Last time I liked it so much I bought two tshirts was gunna buy the new orange one but don’t want to support bad service)

Tony and I were walking around the city of St Augustine Florida, checking out the sites and shops. We stumbled across this little pub very close to the harbour and the Fort, with beautiful views that even included the bridge and lighthouse on Castillo Drive. Strange name, No Name Bar! I would have to give it a beautiful name to go with it's beautiful location. I went inside and got Tony a PBR and myself a glass of Ice Water. We sat outside on the lovely deck enjoying the gorgeous view and slight breeze off the water. A perfect day!! After drinking, we continued our stroll of the city. The bar is very lovely inside and out. Bartender friendly. Smoking outside available not a lot of parking, but we were walking so perfect for us!

Go here for the views. It’s a great place to people watch. The drinks are as good as anywhere else, and sometimes they have really loud live music. It’s a nice stop in the afternoon

It just really depends on the night you go for what kind of atmosphere you get. As tourists, we trusted the name - jazz club….listening. That was not what we got on a Saturday night. Definitely not the jazz club I was hoping for. Instead loud live music, with a frat boy feel. Fun, just not the vibe I was expecting. Crammed. Unable to even get to the humidor. Definitely didn’t get any service.

I have heard so many great reviews, especially through my friend about this place. Last night was my first night attending to this establishment. The overall atmosphere was very crowded and muggy, however I expected it to be rather busy considering it being Halloween. It was myself, my sister and a friend and her boyfriend that came.. all of us decided that we should find a spot which ended up being upstairs, and the idea was one person go down and try to get drinks for the table. While this was being done, I needed use the restroom and used the one upstairs. When walking in first thing I noticed was two sinks, then to your right what looks like a rectangular indent in the wall, a shelf basically inside the wall. The lightening in the bathroom was very dim so it was hard to really make out exactly what it was but it looked like it had a shelf to put your phone down or purse ect. in which all I had was my phone and I did not want to put it on the dirty floor so I thought it be safer to put on the shelf piece. When I did, my phone fell through the wall. I calmly went downstairs and grabbed one of the bartenders and explained what happened. She had a bit of an attitude and was taken back that I would have done something like that. The other bartender that was an older man was very arrogant and treated me as if I was drunk and basically dumb if you will and just dismissed anything I had to say. I was actually pretty sober had no drinks, so that started to get me upset. What made it even more worse was rather than helping me ASAP to get my phone, I was told I had to wait over an hour for her to attend to the matter.. rather than moving people that were upstairs downstairs temporarily so she can get whatever she needed to do to get my phone. In the meantime another girl had done the exact same thing, and now not only was my phone in the wall but so was hers and she was basically told the same thing that was told to me.. wait over an hour in which by the time they finally did something everything closed. What angers me even more about this situation is that I was told to never come back to this establishment as well as the other girl. And neither one us should have even been punished for having our phone get lost in the wall, where you should have put something there to begin with to prevent such occurrences. This is ridiculous and believe me I will never return to Stogies again especially after how I was treated. I never even bought a single drink or cigar from here because I spent the rest of my night sitting and waiting until she decided and felt like going and getting myself and the other girl’s phone out of the wall. I understand that the bar was heavily busy due to being Halloween but there should have been certain protocols in place when incidents happen. And I highly recommend either patching that wall or putting something there permanently to prevent things happening like that in the future. Also to top this off there was a third phone that the bartender retrieved out of that wall which tells me that this person probably have lost this and not realize where it was lost.

The best of this place was the live music with Michael. He is amazing! If we return to Saint Augustine we will definitely go to this bar just for listen his music.

I didn't go in, but hubby got a cigar and us both a beer. The patio and location was great and the people we met were amazing. Chairs outside were comfy and was very relaxing! Will stop by again when we come back!

One of my favorite spots in St. Augustine. Grab a cold one and a cigar, hang outside and people watch. Service is great and super friendly. Live bands and music and close enough to everything where you can sneak off to real quick. ;)

This place will always hold a special place in my heart! An absolute must visit for my friends and I when we go to Saint Augustine..My buddy even had his first dance after getting married in this establishment and the live band played them a special song. Very nice atmosphere, vibe, and cigars/humidor!

Always a highlight of a visit to St.Augustine. Centrally located, fantastic selection of not only cigars but also suds. They have a walk in humidor and big cooler full of craft suds. Indoor and outdoor seating where you can enjoy a puff and a drink. Also home to professional helpful friendly service. These folks are true pros! A bonus is the live music. Pretty much a must stop if your out on the town.

Great place to try different beers from the beer wall and have a delicious burger. We had the surf and turf and the bacon, egg, and cheeseburger. Enjoyed the sports memorabilia as were big sports fan. Will come back on next visit.

Auggie's is a decent place. I'm guessing the draft beers are the draw. The burgers were good. But I'm not sure I'd use the word gourmet to describe them. They are very friendly and efficient. Also dog friendly outside. So for me that's a plus. I will go back knowing what to expect.

First and foremost, my fiance and I was searching high and low for a place to eat and we just simply couldn't find a good one that popped out to us. We stopped here and grabbed beer to start, then walked around the town. Later in the evening, we decided to come back here and order the burger. WOW!!! Best burger I have ever had in my life. We ordered another to take home. The staff was absolutely amazing and the atmosphere was very chill. We decided to go back the next day for lunch and again had an amazing burger 🍔 We will definitely be back again!!

3.5 ⭐️ . It’s alright, nothing really good or bad here, burger was okay, chicken sandwich was okay, fries were good. The self serve tap is a neat idea but does add up quickly. But it’s nice if you want to try a variety of things- otherwise it would just be easier for staff to pour.

If you like a classic thin 2 patty burger, this is the spot. If you’re looking for a thick juicy burger, you’re not gonna like it. The burgers were bangin, fries crispy and delicious. Server went to the back to get us some BBQ sauce. Love the draft service, honorable mention for the cider selection. Little pricey for the amount of food you get but the draft is affordable so it balances out. Would come back and would recommend

Great place to watch some sports. Draft beer selection is great, service was awesome, some cheap food selections available. Food could be improved, it was good but basic frozen patties, and a basic bun for the burgers, fries are the same french fries you see in a lot of places pre breaded frozen fries.

Amazing burgers! Best we've had in a long time! The gluten-free bun was very good too.

Grilled cheeses were SO good! Beer was also good. Bartender was knowledgeable and very friendly. Recommend for a late dinner, arcade is an added bonus.

The tokens are quarters, if you have some bring them in! Games cost $1 per person per play, the coin pusher being the exception as it’s per coin. There are a ton of games and there are different little rooms to go into. The bathrooms are nice and big, locking with a latch lock not a door lock. The drinks were reasonably priced. We did not get food.

Highly recommended the steak grilled cheese. Tasted incredible and arcade was also super fun. Everyone was respectful, only small problem I had was parking.

I love this place! Visiting St Augustine for work today and stopped in Sarbez! They have gourmet grilled cheeses, craft beer, local selections, kombucha and wine. It's a game arcade with unique games and classics. Lots of quirky art and artifacts around. And a patio with plants, and tables with umbrellas. They have live music at night. I had a Smash burger grilled cheese with cheddar and grilled onions, absolutely amazing! Sammies come with chips. You order at the bar and take a number to your spot, then they deliver it. There were a few people here but my food came fast! If you've never experienced Sarbez, you need to check it out!

Cool place, alright sandwich if a little pricey. Pinball is what we really came for but the games were $1.00 ea (for pinball?) and set-up very high in the back, leading to short games of straight down the middle, so I only played a few. All around this place is just okay with lots of potential, but as is, it feels a little money-grabby and I wouldn't return.

Fun grilled cheese restaurant with games! Service was great and the food was amazing. Decent beer selection and plenty of games to play.

This place is awesome! The vibe is immaculate, the games are top notch and the grilled cheese is to die for. Kid friendly before 8pm!

The food was very tasty, the atmosphere was good, but we were a little dissatisfied with the service. They absolutely don't know how to make a proper latte. We weren't even offered water, and when we wanted to ask, they didn't even come up to us. We came with friends and wanted to pay everything by card and leave a tip in cash, but the waitress accidentally made a mistake and withdrew money incorrectly, and also added tips to online payments herself, and we unknowingly left tips cash, and then saw them on the card. I wanted to ask you to be more careful in such things. Our bill came to $135 and we left a $50 tip. I wouldn't be writing this if the waiters were so great. That's why I gave 1 for service. Sorry for the negativity Thank you.

PK’s ROOSEVELT ROOM, ST. AUGUSTINE’S ANSWER FOR IF YOU ONLY HAD 1 CHANCE TO BRUNCH OUR CITY, RANDI IS THE BEST SERVER With only 1 day in St. Augustine for Brunch, we did the research & came up with PK’s Roosevelt Room. Our server Randi did a fabulous job & we never felt rushed & was always present. We enjoyed Monte Cristo & Corned Beef & Potatoes dishes. I always have grits wherever we go. It’s fun to try as each place always has its own unique way of making their grits. The PK’s Cheddar Grits were stone ground & very flavorful. Cheddar Cheese (yum). I added extra butter just because. On a side note, the potatoes were crunchy on the outside & nice & tasty on the inside. Order a dish with these or as a side. You’ll be glad you did. Who has a draft beer with their Brunch? Me! It was a great local selection. The Mrs. had the Orange Juice Mimosa which was spot on & came with a beautiful floating flower.

We had a fantastic brunch here during the week. Service was excellent. The girls really could not have been any nicer or helpful. I don’t think there was a crumb left on either plate. Fantastic menu, and an absolutely super cute place for a girls day! Highly highly recommend! I really can’t say enough good things.

Teddy Roosevelt’s moustache would twist in delight this daring cuisine. PK’s Roosevelt Room is a “presidential” offering within the pantheon of fantastic food haunts in St. Augustine, Florida - and a gastronomic gem worthy of your vote. This quaint spot is located on the eclectic and charming St. George Street, considered the cultural epicenter of the Ancient City. And while the decor (stamped ceilings and Victorian nods) evokes a by-gone era, it’s anything but old. The chef has elevated brunch to a fresh level, adding a zig where other zag. With so many intriguing options, we attacked the menu like a three-course meal. Start with the tomato soup, which features grilled cheese croutons. Or devour the salmon board with fried capers. Delectable. For the “entree,” you have to try the Sweater Weather - a sublime seasonal concoction with pumpkin spice bacon and a sweet hollandaise. The home made bread knocks it out of the park. I also recommend the quiche. Dessert - if that’s what you prefer to call it - came as the signature brûlée French toast, which is simply unmatched. The carmelized crunch meets the soft, comforting bread with pure ecstasy, and your mouth will thank you for it. They also make amazing waffles; we tried the chocolate s’more with a homemade marshmallow and graham cracker center - a total slam dunk for your tastebuds. There’s a great bar, and I might suggest you sit and chat with Jeanne, who was incredibly kind and knew her way around the menu. She also mixed some solid cranberry apple mimosas and cafe con leches to keep us properly hydrated. Roosevelt’s is a no rez scene, so things can get busy. I suggest a weekday jaunt if your schedule permits. It’s owned by the Prohibition Kitchen (located next door), and that’s another great spot to hit. Oh, if you have a special event (reception, party, etc.), this place is dynamite. They transform it into a long table for a large guest list - it ends up looking very sheik. Check the Instagram for photos. Parking is a bear in St. Augustine, so give yourself time and the feed the meter. But don’t be a Rough Rider and miss Teddy’s namesake - this might be the best brunch you’ve ever had.

Our waitress Riley was super sweet and attentive. I had the French toast and it was AMAZING. You get so much food I feel like you could even just share. The Watermelon Mimosa was the special drink when we went and it was divine!

Amazing brunch spot!! No wait & super friendly staff. Our food was incredible and high quality. Make sure you give this a try if you are in town!

The Roosevelt Room had some redeeming qualities: excellent service, a fantastic vibe, and food that was surprisingly decent (two out of four plates were genuinely delicious!). But the coffee. Oh, the coffee. It was so remarkably awful and bitter, it overshadowed everything. For a breakfast place, serving such an awful, bitter brew is a major letdown (as commented in another review). When the waitress mentioned their decaf brand name was 'Columbian' from Costa Rica (then corrected to 'Colombian,' citing a likely menu misprint), I just chuckled. Because whatever that was, it tasted less like coffee and more like a bitter, existential crisis in liquid form, as if the beans took a scenic detour from Colombia (best coffee in the world by most baristas) or Costa Rica (ranked among the best) through a charcoal plant after being dark roasted in a volcano to be brewed with regret at the Roosevelt Room. I just realized my coffee snob transformation might officially be complete.

What can I say except boat drinks is fabulous. It’s always consistent- fun atmosphere, friendly service, delicious fresh food and yummy drinks. My son loves the cheeseburger, and you can’t go wrong with the fish dip, chips and dip (it’s a fun lighter play on the original), peppered shrimp and bread, peel and eat shrimp, and datil pepper sliders. Seriously get it all! They don’t take reservations but we’ve never waited. So fun and yummy! We visit every time. It’s truly the best. A must go!

Got the chance to stop in for lunch after wanting to go after they moved to their new location. It is awesome! Great vibe inside, they say it on the sign, but it’s a bar, not a restaurant! Definitely more adult friendly overall. However, food was great, and so was their selection of drinks. We ordered the Datil shrimp sliders and chicken skewers, both were fantastic! Service was great, everyone was super polite and informative. Highly recommend, will be back again soon!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Boat Drinks is truly a local, family-owned gem and a must-visit for oyster lovers! I thoroughly enjoyed their trio of mixed oysters—Mookie Moto, Queens Cup, and Fire Lake—all fresh, briny, and bursting with flavor. Each was perfectly shucked and served on the half shell with an excellent vinegar-based mignonette and a well-balanced cocktail sauce with just the right kick of horseradish. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, the service is attentive without being rushed, and you can tell every detail is handled with care. A fantastic spot to savor top-quality oysters in St. Augustine!

The food here is definitely a step up from your average bar, despite what the sign says (this is a bar, not a restaurant), it is very much a bar with restaurant quality food. While a puppy event outside might suggest a family-friendly atmosphere, it's not truly designed for families. Be warned about the overpriced cocktails, which are mostly ice; your money is much better spent on a bottled beer (there is no draft beer) so you actually know how much alcohol you're getting. Interestingly, they do offer wine on draft.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Boat Drinks in St. Augustine is incredible! Their cocktails are some of the best in town especially their frozen drinks and specialty rum creations. Everything is super fresh, creative, and perfectly balanced. The food is just as impressive. The char-grilled oysters, datil shrimp sliders, jerk chicken skewers, and blackened fish sandwich were all delicious and full of flavor. You can tell they put real care into every dish. The atmosphere is fun, tropical, and relaxed, and the service is friendly and attentive. This is one of those places you visit once and immediately want to come back. Highly recommend Boat Drinks for amazing drinks, great food, and a perfect St. Augustine vibe!

I have to be honest and say I can remember when this location was a Greek restaurant in the late 70's, and it's been transformed many times. The decor is cool. Very large space with inside and outdoor seating. Very many cool drink options, but no draft beer. I did settle for an IPA in a can. The fish dip was awesome and it came with some yummy raw veggies. A worthwhile visit.

On the plus side...good cocktails at a fair price ($14-ish). No beers on tap - a no go for my hubby. Extremely loud inside, sounded like being under a massive waterfall. Outside seating is better, but be prepared for the heat and humidity (nice sunset though)...the food menu is very limited. Not a great place for kids, no kids menu and a very adult oriented atmosphere (although people bring them here anyway). This is a good place to start or end your evening if it is on your way into or out of town, but not a destination restaurant nor is it within easy walking distance of the venues in old town St. Aug. I really liked their old location better on St. George St where you could sit upstairs and watch the crowds go by. Parking can be difficult on a busy weekend night.

Excellent Pizza! I asked what the special was and when the i heard the description I said oh my give me that please. Perfect medium-size pie, thin crust, pesto, bacon, brussel sprouts, with warm honey drizzle. OMG it was off the chain delicious! Lauren and Cindy were great servers! Loved the live music. Highly recommend this place.

We were so excited to try Surfside Kitchen for breakfast after seeing all the amazing photos and reviews… but unfortunately, they don’t serve breakfast during the week — only on weekends. This was such a disappointment since it wasn’t clear when we checked the reviews ahead of time. That said, the staff was very friendly and apologetic, and they offered suggestions for other breakfast place. I appreciate the great service, but I wish the breakfast hours were made more obvious so travelers don’t get their hopes up like we did. If you’re coming for breakfast, plan for a weekend visit — otherwise, be ready to explore their lunch and dinner options instead.

I was going to give them a 5 based on our first night meal. We ordered the Cajun chicken tacos and the mahi mahi tacos our first night and the food was so delicious we returned the next night with our daughter and her family. We ordered the same tacos plus two pizzas for the grandkids. The tacos were completely different and terrible. The first night the Cajun chicken was hot, spicy, and in strips. The second night the chicken was cold, wet and cubes of chicken without any spice. I don’t think a restaurant should have completely different flavors and presentation chef to chef but this place did. Unfortunate. Service is a 10 they are awesome!!

This was a great spot within walking distance of our hotel. It was so good we went twice in one day! We went for brunch and came back for dinner. As someone who needs to eat gluten free, I was impressed with their options and how good everything tasted! Their gluten free pizza was delicious! Our server was also so kind and served us both times that day!

This place is absolutely atrocious. Where do we start. Let's begin with the frozen biscuits and broken gravy that you could have used to shore up the coast with to prevent the King tide. Moving forward to yet again another frozen pastry for the lox and bagel. Not only was it frozen and simply toasted, when it came to the table, they just threw a container of cream cheese on your 🍽 so you then had to remove everything, then apply stand reassemble your bagel. Did i mention the single slice of smoked salmon that came with it for an outrageous price of 18$!?!! Our brunch potatoes were under eggs were cold and runny, and the truffle fries had to be returned as well. Nothing that was ordered should have taken 45m to fire yet that was the ticket time. Luckily our bloody marys came with shrimp and bacon. We would have done better getting subs next door at publix. Not sure what we paid for but it wasn't a quality dining experience. Here is a pic for reference. If I could have videoed trying to get through the biscuits I would.

Lauren is a great server! Knowledgeable on the menu items, fixed our wobbley table (without us asking!) and we never ran out of drinks. The drinks were strong and delicious. They even did all flats on my wings! Everything was spot on, even the old school country music hit differently. New favorite!

Like the outdoor music. It's not obnoxiously loud and it's tasteful. The food was ok. The drinks were relatively tasteless tonight (probably the bartender because they have been better). The server was fine. Good hang out spot when it's not so hot outside.

I liked Arnold's better last year, before new owner. Music was great, good for dancing. I don't care for the music they play now. Don't go as often as I used to. Love Mr. Natural, of course!

Went for steak night and some cocktails with a girl friend. We had a blast listening to the karaoke and meeting others! Great people watching. We sat at a high top table so we had to get up and order at the bar whenever we wanted anything. That was annoying considering there were 3 bartenders working. The steak with potato and veg were okay for $20. Pretty fatty overcooked steak and tinned veg. Decent overall considering the free entertainment. There were some really great singers and the dj /karaoke host was outstanding! Definitely coming back soon.

Atmosphere: fun Dive bar. I miss them up here so I loved it! Food: very limited BUT hot and good when got it. Service: waitress was very nice and great with service. Drinks were as ordered. I like mine tall with glass filled with ice, gotcha that way!! Band played so much great music. I would go back 😊

Have been driving by for a couple years and finally stopped in tonight. It was a Wednesday evening and it was pretty quiet. Bartender was friendly, food came out fast, tasted great, and was reasonably priced. I want to get in to try their Thursday night $17 ribeye dinner special and on Friday or Saturday to check out the live bands. Will definitely be back.

Great atmosphere as one of our local dive bars but difficult to get a seat and service on a Saturday night Sundays are good for something to do like shooting pool or playing darts, not as many people. I’ve heard their Steak Night is yummy!

Best mozzarella stixs & fries . Savannah was our server and she was adorable. Her energy filled the room and was very polite and attentive. Can’t wait to come back .

First time here. I was very surprised how good the food was. It was Thursday Steak Night. The bone-in Ribeye was perfect. It was tender and juicy and great seasoning. The green beans had bacon and a smoky taste, baked potatoe was spot on. Great service, cool atmosphere. Overall just awesome. Will be back...

Sunday brunch. Not perfect, but good - and worth another visit. Beautiful live Spanish guitar and trombone were not too loud and VERY skilled. The waitress was very nice but should have been more attentive. Made an error in our order and never did get it corrected. Beautiful atmosphere and no crowd and no wait. We will give them another try.

Nice elegant hotel bar that allows the public to visit also . Our server apparently doubled as the hotel pianist and that was a nice touch as we sat back in the extremely comfortable chairs and enjoyed a couple of beers and a very well made cocktail.

I can’t pinpoint exactly what I love about this bar but it is my favorite in St. Augustine. I like that I can get a dirty martini made with vodka from the St. Augustine Distillery. Bar has a cozy cool vibe day or night. Staff is always friendly and attentive. Always clean and inviting. I’ll keep coming back!

Excellent experience I do not drink alcohol however the bar tender was able to make a delicious non-alcoholic raspberry, with bloody orange, lavender and mineral water. My husband said his drink was great as well.

Very nice location, comfortable beds, and it is well maintained. Staff was very helpful, the room was clean, there was an aditional, smaller pool on the second floor so kids did not have to trek as far. (3 foot deep only)

Excellent place for a cocktail and appetizer. Pleasant staff. Will return again.

We managed to get to the bar, because it was packed and we ended up having a great dinner. Food was delicious!!
