22 Best Italian Restaurants near St. Augustine Beach

“Been here before and this place is still a winner. Great and creative choices plus cheerful and more important competent wait servers. It’s becoming an our favorite when we crave pizza or perhaps mozzarella sticks. Don’t let the construction outside from the new Publix turn you off. Bronx Pizza is alive and well.“

“I had the Insalate Pera (pear salad), sweet, tangy, and the perfect crunch to it with walnuts and gorgonzla too. I also had the pizza salad, cheese crust wrapped around a delicious salad, I added grilled chicken and it was so tasty.“

“What a great place. Food was wonderful and authentic and the service was excellent. So glad we went.“

“Just thought I was gonna go into this little joint. I was pretty fooled when I stepped in to a totally different atmosphere, a place where all the locals come, and it was packed, sat at the bar Andrew the bartender took care of us. He was amazing. He was on top of his game. Nothing unusual for him whatever he suggested was excellent service excellent food excellent wine excellent I drank sangria from Spain so did everybody else in the place? It’s my new go to it’s a hidden gem and I really thought this was just a joint and didn’t know if I was actually gonna eat here but was T fooled thank you so much guys for your food and service will bring all my friends and family to you.“

“Donna Hopke provided amazing friendly and very professional services! I like coming here and I always ask for her!“

“We popped in here on a whim. Tucked down a little, cute street, fostering a wonderful vibe. It was about to sprinkle(maybe..Florida, ya know) but the owner said if we wanted to chance it, would could sit outside, as the wait time for an inside table was over an hour. We decided to chance it. So glad we did! Best chicken piccata I’ve ever had. Generous “wife portions” of wine, hah. And the food came very quickly. Really enjoyed the owner’s hospitality as well. Highly recommend!!“

“Awesome food and Ivy was the best of the best serving us and everyone our food and drinks at the bar. It took us 3 attempts over 3 hours of walking around the Nights of Lights to finally get in...was worth it! :-)“

“One by of worst experiences of our lives! Food is ok. Rude waiter, loud, perhaps high as kite!!!! Could not wait to get out of there. If you want to be treated poorly,and by Jason,this is the place to go. He has poor customer service.“

“Thank you very much for a wonderful evening for our wedding in The Milano Room. The staff was very attentive to our needs during pre-planning and during the event. The meatball appetizer was incredible!! Thanks for everything!! -Tom and Michelle“

“Been Getting lots of Things Stuff Shells,Cervellata,Hot,Mild Sausage, Bread there 2x now and it all Awesome..!!“

“I have eaten at Piesano's twice, and each time it was awesome! The food is absolutely wonderful - today, my party and I enjoyed a cheese calzone, shrimp scampi, and gorgonzola salad with shrimp. All were excellent. And the service and ambiance are exceptional. It is very quiet and comfortable, and the wait staff are patient and kind and don't mind if you take your time. Not many restaurants are quiet and relaxing these days. The prices are fair, as well, especially considering the high quality of the dishes. Highly recommended!“

“The food is amazing and would highly recommend!!!!“

“Pizza was hot and tasty! Salad was fresh. Friendly staff, quick service, relaxed dining environment. I will definitely go back!“

“I've been in Florida for almost a month and honestly this is the first place that got my order right the first time!!!!!!!! and it was sooo good 😊 better than Carmelo's Domino's st Augie's and Pizza Hut 💯 chicken is off the cain as well“

“We were visiting St Augustine for a couple of days and both of our dinners were from Carmelo’s pizza. The first night we had supreme special pizza. Yum! Last night was lasagna and salad with artichoke, peppers, feta cheese and more. Sorry didn’t remember the name of it. It also was delicious! If we come back to St Augustine, we will be eating here. Not only because the food is delicious but everyone is happy and really great at customer service. Jean - on the left both times on the phone with our orders but also in person makes you feel like you are the most important customer in the shop. I am a manager in customer service and the service she gave to me and the customer service that the team gives each other is outstanding. This is how a business is run: great food, customer service and team work! Thank you Jean and everyone for making our anniversary weekend special and delicious.“

“Had higher hopes for this evening… atmosphere was point, music selection was good but loud. Did turn down later. Service was kinda slow and could be more attentive, but was very nice. Cocktails were good. Great story about Horse Soldier Bourbon. Great bourbon selection, enjoyed craft cocktails. Food was just alright and was very expensive. Two cocktails, one app, one salad and a steak $111. Probably wouldn’t eat here again but would stop in for cocktails. No parking, wouldn’t bring kids here, wheel chair accessible.“

“Best Italian restaurant in St Augustine by far. Food was delicious, staff was fantastic and the owners are from my home state of NJ. What more can you ask for ?? My wife and I will definitely be coming back !!“

“We decided to have pizza delivered to the condo for our last night of vacation and omg so good! The island Baja pizza is amazing! Wish we lived closer so we could eat here more often! Best pizza I have ever had!“

“My wife and I were coming back from TN. And wanted Marcos pizza and cheese bread. She ordered on the road and when we arrived at Marcos close to our home . The manager figured out it was ordered to another Marcos. The manager David without hesitation said he would make our order there. David’s customer service skills are highly polished and removed our mistake to make us feel he care so much about all his customers. Thank you again David we definitely will see you soon.“

“Sorry it took us so long to try this place, fantastic!“
