50 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Fernandina Beach

“This Spanish restaurant is an absolute standout. The seafood paella arrived piping hot and overflowing with bold, rich flavor, every bite was tender, perfectly seasoned, and honestly unforgettable. The warm rolls, friendly service, and cozy atmosphere made the whole experience even better. I grabbed the cheesecake for dessert since they were out of the chocolate cake, and it was creamy and delicious. It was too cold to enjoy the outdoor seating, but it looked amazing for next time. If you’re ever in the area, go!! you won’t regret it.“

“Do not walk away if you see a line to get in. The service is fast and the food is excellent! I definitely recommend having lunch there.“

“Came here on a Friday night. Prices are reasonable, $4 for a Coors Light and there were 3 other beers available for $3. There's limited bar seating, only 2 seats total, which is strange however there is plenty of outdoor seating at picnic tables and such so on a nice night seating isnt an issue. Bathrooms are unisex, there are at least 3, 2 of which are outside. Staff was generally friendly although 1 bartender didn't like to give customers back their change. Overall, preferred this to Palace Saloon.“

But the item available were very good, especially the ribs. Service was very cordial and the draft beer selection was good. We plan to go back but early in the evening.“

“Located inside of the Ritz this spot has it all! Great coffee, pastries, cold drinks, deli like food and green juice that has to have bad stuff in it because it tastes far too good for just a healthy juice.
Awesome service that learned your name and drink. A morning highlight during my stay.“

The ambience was absolutely perfect — warm, inviting, and beautifully set. It made the entire evening feel special from the moment we walked in. The food was incredible. Every dish was full of flavor, fresh, and clearly made with care. You can tell they take pride in what they serve. And our waitress… truly beyond outstanding. She was attentive, friendly, knowledgeable, and made us feel so welcome. Honestly one of the best dining experiences we’ve had in a long time. We will definitely be back!“

“great outdoor spot downtown w excellent music people couldn’t be nicer“

“Found this restaurant a few months ago. The food is good. Went back today for lunch and I got the steak and cheese in a wrap and my husband got a calzone. Only compliant would be the cheese and wrap for my sandwich wasn't toasted or melted which could have made the steak and cheese with grilled onions slightly better. Otherwise the calzone my husband had was good and our pizza from our first visit was good as well.“

This was my husband's and I first time there for date night and when we walked in Jerry the manager was So warm,inviting and personalable he made us feel like royalty.

We met some great locals that was friendly and so fun!! This was the best date night ever at Shuckers“

“As a family our Christmas tradition has been to get take out Chinese from New China. Unfortunately New China was not open (or so busy they were not answering their phones) and we were forced to try something new. Let me say, I AM SO GLAD we tried King Wok! The Orange Chicken was phenomenal and was even good warmed up the next day! The pork fried rice was just fine and the man answering the phone could have been warmer (but hey, they were slammed busy). I will definitely be back.“
