“Got off the beaten path today with my wife to try St. Augustine Fish Camp for lunch. We’re really glad we did too. Everything about or visit was amazing. Seated quickly, Josh and Cody were very attentive to all or needs as were all the staff. Food was presented well, it was fresh, hot and tasted great! Well done Fish Camp!”
“It is cool place to eat lunch great food people that work there are great”
“This is the best lobster roll I have ever had in my life and it’s worth every penny. The mouth watering lobster on the perfectly light toasted roll just fabulous. Great outside area to sit and cool upstairs also if you want to be inside . I was there a few Saturdays back in the day and saw such a cool Reggae band that even boosted the atmosphere more . Great service. The manager Caleb was very accommodating to myself and my family.”
“If I could give 10 stars , I would! Food is incredibly good and creative with excellent products. Yes , you will wait a little bit but that is precisely a very good sign that everything is fresh and details oriented. The patio is charming, the service is incredible, you just have to go there to enjoy the best food in town. We are french and we will definitely come back to taste everything. Thank you for the great experience!”
“We had Tallarines Verdes with hanger steak and Mar Y Tierra. Both were amazing and a good portion size. For dessert we had Sacred Valley. It was so delicious that we contemplated ordering a second for the car ride home. If we are back in St. Augustine, we will be coming back to Llama.”
Restaurants by Cuisine
“Met some friends for lunch and we had a wonderful time! the food was great, very fresh and quick, also two of the rolls on my friend's platter wasn't prepared as they had asked, so the waiter was very accommodating and quickly went to have them made over! Ambiance was very nice the place is super clean and we will definitely be back for more! Also they actually had the lunch menu available on a Sunday!!!”
“Disclaimer: I’m a native Texan, traveling on vacation.
This place offered an elevated dining experience. It wasn’t your typical local food joint. We only had appetizers and drinks, but that was enough to know it was exactly what our foodie hearts were craving.
We tried two craft cocktails—the Double Vision and the Lavender Haze. Whoever came up with the idea of mixing carrot, ginger, whiskey, and fennel was pure genius. It was such an exciting drink, perfectly made—we could’ve easily had a few more. The lavender drink was equally refreshing and intoxicating.
Small menu - which we love. We like when restaurants perfect everything, instead of a large menu where everything is mediocre.
We enjoyed the fish and sausage egg roll.
I’m a Minorcan chowder girl, and I could’ve easily swum in a bathtub of that tasty conch soup. It was that good.
The atmosphere was peaceful and beautiful, setting the perfect vibe for an intimate experience. Everything about the vibe was just right.”
Restaurants with Delivery
“We had a fantastic meal! The beet poke was fresh and had great flavor and the 3 ramen dishes we ordered were all out of this world good! I had a sake cocktail that was refreshing and well balanced and my hubby had a nice sweet potato beer. Definitely worth the hour drive for us!”

“This is one of the very best Sushi restaurants that i have ever eaten at. The service was spectacular and the selection of sushi and sashimi was stupendous. I have eaten in many Sushi restaurants and I have to say this is by far my favorite . Whenever we are in St. Augustine I know we will eat there again. My husband, who does not like sushi, also loved the food he was able to get.”
“Our family has been visiting Mayday every day for the past two weeks, and we simply cannot get enough of their amazing ice cream! The flavors are absolutely delicious, and the quality is top-notch. But what truly sets this place apart is the incredible staff. They are always very friendly and welcoming.
A special shoutout to Phoenix – you are truly extraordinary! You always go above and beyond to help our family, making each visit even more special. Your kindness, energy, and attention to detail never go unnoticed, and we appreciate you so much!
If you're looking for a place with not just great ice cream but also an outstanding team, Mayday is the place to go!
We still have another week in St. Augustine and we will definitely keep coming back!”

“Was a little bit of a wait to get seated but well worth it! Bobby took great care of us and made sure everything was perfect. The food was presented perfectly and tasted as great as it looked. Will definitely visit again!”
“Great service and an amazing difference from the prior occupant in this location. We really enjoyed the attentive and pleasant nature of the service staff. The food was well prepared and entertaining. The sushi was good as well as the hibachi meals. I agree with many of the other positive reviews and I am happy that I have this restaurant a try after ownership and name change. It is definitely well worth it and I will recommend to my neighbors and friends.
Parking: Plenty of parking in front as lot is not used much at night.”
“We were sat upon arrival for our reservation. The leather bound EXTENSIVE meno was a nice touch. Ethan, our waiter, was jovial, attentive, but not hovering. We took our time ordered drinks (Raising Cane was a fun, different flavor!). The meatballs were unique and "exotic" spices as claimed in the menu. The tuna tartar had a little bit of kick with flavoring, but the highlight was the grilled toast. We shared a small tossed salad which was just the right amount after two apps. Our mains were Duck Pappardelle (special) and pasta al vodka with chicken thighs. Both were outstanding, with nice portions size. As we were leaving my husband gave his best review "We need to come back here, there are several other things I'd like to try!" A nice after dinner walk back to our car, parked on the river. (Give yourself plenty of time to get parked and walk, as there is no direct parking on these beautiful old brick streets.)”

“Visiting from Maine and stopped at Woodpeckers for lunch. I’m not sure anything back home compares! Everything was delicious, quick service and friendly staff. Definitely recommend the mac and cheese and Datil bbq sauce. I will absolutely be back on future visits to the area.”
“We were in St Augustine for DH’s birthday and stopped by for the best cup of coffee we’ve had in a long time!! So we decided to go again on early Sunday hoping they’d be open otw home! And they were!! Michael bright a complimentary bagel 🥯 LOADED with cream cheese and jalapeños. A minute later the largest, piping hot, DELICIOUS egg , cheese and bacon bagels arrived with our specialty coffees! Sloan and Michael, the owners, take care of their customers and produce an excellent product!!! Sweetwater will our first stop next time we visit!”
“What can I say about this place that our waitress didn’t do to make it amazing and memorable! Catie was fantastic! Very sweet, very bubbly and on it! I had the best time because of her attention to detail. She was just great. Took our plates away after every “meal,” she kept our table clean and friendly with her energy and enthusiasm. She recommended the Brussels and they were on point! She made this a great time for us. She sets the bar high for all other establishments! Well done.”
“My love and I enjoyed breakfast at The West Egg. We primarily chose to go there based on the great reviews and the fact that they had keto options.
The service was wonderful. The woman who took our order and brought our food out was very friendly and knowledgeable. The food was perfectly cooked and delicious.
Seating is limited so we knew there was a possibility that we would get it to go if necessary. We were happy to sit right outside.
The reviews were correct!”
“I was on vacation when I saw this restaurant in St. Augustine FL. I saw the menu and said I have to go in and get something! I am a grilled cheese connoisseur and I make some good ones myself but oh my gosh, the grilled Mac and Cheese I had with I can't remember what kind of meat was AMAZING! So was the tomato soup! This amazing 70's music was playing inside and I was dancing waiting for my take out. It was so cool inside! They asked for my name and I told them. Little did I know when I came back in a few days later where we ate inside that time, that the man who waited on me 2 days before would remember me and call me by name! Holy cow! That was so cool! He said it was because I was dancing. I'm a dancer with 5 trophies so yeah, I was dancing to that good music but to remember me like that! If you love grilled Mac and Cheese or just grilled cheese in general and you love tomato soup, you have to eat here! I promise you will not be disappointed at all! Next time I want some Poutine and another sandwich! YUM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”
“Hearty food with excellent spins on traditional favorites. The fried banana peppers were a table favorite. Cheese steak egg rolls and pb&j wings were outstanding. Top 3 patty melts I’ve ever had and their take on the pot pie is awesome. I cannot recommend this place enough.
Well done Treylor Park.”
“front hostess today was amazing and very helpful. 5 star service. Thankyou!”

“I have eaten at the restraunt a couple times inside and it has been awesome everytime so I do recommend eating there. Service has always been awesome, but Do not order to go. The food quality to go is nowhere close to when eat eat there and that's disappointing. I ordered hibatchi chicken and shrimp to go and pretty good chicken and shrimp floating in sauce and a bunch of onions and carrots floating in watery sauce. Will never order to go again. Especially when my whole order was over 75 dollars.”

“My wife and I went to Michael's for our first wedding anniversary and were blown away by the experience. The atmosphere may seem simple, but understand you're sitting in a restaurant that began as a house in 1764. The floors are older than most of our ancestries in this country. On this hallowed grounds they serve amazing wines, mashed potatoes to write home about, and a filet that is done to such perfection and personal preference, that I know they're cooked sous vide, not held too long at temp, and seared to perfection by a very deft hand. I cannot wait to return to the charm of St Augustine and, when I do, it will be this very same experience that I rush to first.”
“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!”
“Our second time eating here and it was amazing! Not to mention the service was fantastic. You can tell the ingredients are sourced high quality and fresh! We loved everything. This is our go to place for amazing food!”
“I brought a 51 person choir group to celebrate our tour and MM knocked it out of the PARK!! Johnny, Krystal, and Emma were rockstars!! I can’t thank them enough. If you have a large group or you’re riding solo go to Mellow Mushroom in St. Augustine. They’ll knock your socks off!”
24 Hour Restaurants
“worst place to work, store managers transfer o.t hours to next pay period or remove them all together to avoid paying the employee o.t. they write people up when off the clock and lie on the write up when threatened to be reported to the labor board. they also hit sex offenders in management positions and change employees schedules without notice and write them up if they do not show up. They also write people up for being late even when the person calls and tells them they will be late.”
“I want to thank and recognize the person who brings the food to the tables. He was incredibly kind and attentive, always delivering each dish with a smile. He offered us sauces and extra napkins without us even asking. Honestly, the world needs more people like him. It was heartwarming to see how happy and caring he was while doing his job. We’ll definitely keep coming back. <3”

“I called Denny's on Ponce De Leon in Historic St. Augustine, from out of state, to see if I could purchase a gift card for a guest who is staying at the Days Inn next door. Unfortunately they could not take a credit card over the phone. However after explaining to Brooke my situation, she was so gracious to offer my guest a free breakfast. I will forever be greatful to her and her genuine thoughtfulness and hospitality. I sure hope I can visit St. Augustine soon to personally meet with this great lady!”

Cheap Eats
“My wife and I had breakfast there and the food was great tasting, very friendly and fast service plus excellent prices. It’s a small restaurant with a feel at home atmosphere. We live in Ohio and will definitely eat here (several times) on our next visit to St Augustine FL.”
“My husband and I live in Palm coast and when we make the trip to St. Augustine, this place is always a must! We’ve been a few times now and each time they are so friendly and fast with the service. I really appreciate how child-friendly they are, they always treat our toddler with such kindness and patience. One time that we went they even brought him out a dessert of ice cream! They are the best and so is the food. The buffets they have during the week are always hot, fresh and tasty as well.”
“Excellent craft beer!! Highly recommend, and also next to a great taco place that you can bring the food over!”
“It’s always a pleasure and the service is always great!”
“What a great place. Food was wonderful and authentic and the service was excellent. So glad we went.”

“Great Ramen! We ordered right before close and still had an awesome experience! We brought it back to the hotel and watched a movie while eating our meal. Thanks!”
“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.”
“The attention was great, Franchesca took great care of us and her suggestions were excellent. The chimi was worldwide!!! The food was super delicious, despite the house being full, the wait was super short and the food was ready in no time!!! 10/10 🤗🤗🤗”
“Donna Hopke provided amazing friendly and very professional services! I like coming here and I always ask for her!”
“Good atmosphere. Mostly the food was good but my steak in the Asado Trio was super chewy (I tried 2 bites and had to embarrassingly spit them out into my napkin). The chicken, chorizo and veggies were great! Very disappointed I mentioned this out to our waitress and no apology from management or acknowledgement. For the price one would expect top notch food.”
“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!!”
“Last evening we had a delightful and delicious dinner. Rum pour was generous. JJ was our outstanding and friendly waitress. She made our dinner special with her attentiveness. We will continue to return to this gem and hope JJ is our waitress again.”
“We had an exciting time celebrating our graduates, and it couldn’t have been more perfect! The pizza was absolutely delicious, and we indulged in three mouthwatering varieties. And let me tell you, the house salad was incredibly fresh and packed with flavor! I can't recommend this place enough—it’s a must-try!”
“We had dinner at Elkhouse Eatery and were so very pleased with the service and food. Wonderful presentation and delivery. It's a must try when your in town.”
“I love their pizza and other food items. I go there often beautiful atmosphere and great music. A lot of fun!”
“The staff all throughout this hotel was remarkable. From front desk, valet, restaurant to pool…everyone was so kind, courteous, helpful and just fun! Amazing hotel that we highly recommend and will definitely be back!”
“Ashley took such good care of our family! We each got something different (kids Alfredo, kids spaghetti and meatball, lasagna, & chicken Marsala and dessert-gelato for the kids and bread pudding for my husband & I to share) everything was amazing! Thank for for giving us a wonderful wedding anniversary dinner 💞 we have been to this location a few times and it’s never been a disappointment!”
“Amazing experience! Service was top-notch and the food was fresh, fast, and full of flavor. Loved the wine, apps, and entrées — everything was on point. Highly recommend! I can’t wait to go back!”
“My wife and I came here for our 31st anniversary. A highly rated restaurant. My meal, steak bowl, was very tasty. The steak was tuff. Over cooked I think. My wife had a fish meal. I forget which. She was very disappointed in the taste and quality of her meal. I have NEVER see my wife complain about a meal before. When our waitress (she was great!) Asked how the meal was my wife told her. Later a woman, not a lady, came to our table concerning our dissatisfaction. She seemed to be insulted and left in a huff. Normally a dissatisfied customer is given a discount or a free dessert. Something. Nothing was offered. What should have been an enjoyable dining experience for Saint Augustine residents celebrating their anniversary was left lacking. 🤢”
“The food, atmosphere & service is always incredible. Great restaurant to go to casual or dressed up.”
“Sheri was awesome! Very neat and tucked away hidden gem. Culinary skills in the kitchen are a big stand out. A lot of homemade in-house recipes that left us wanting more. The bottle of proseco chosen for us was the icing on the cake. We will back for sure....”
“Always a great stay here. The staff is exceptional and the rooms are very nice. The view is unbeatable. We look forward to coming every year.”
“Fun must stop attraction in beautiful Historic St. Augustine area. Tons to do for the whole family, they have Trolly tours and Jail House tours. A few gift shops and an exhibit inside the Gator Bobs gift shop. The gift shop has a ton of things including T-Shirts, Souvenirs, and food as well. Loved all the decor and themed items located around the area. The surrounding area was absolutely beautiful. We will definitely come again our next trip in town.”
“Last night we made a dinner reservations quite late The food was very good We were the last ones but were given excellent service We would definitely come again The server Spencer was really on point”
“The food was absolutely delicious. We tried the escargot and definitely did not regret it. The atmosphere in the once past pool was a different experience. Quiet, romantic and simply beautiful. Our waitress was phenomenal and cared to our every need. We can’t wait to come back.”
“I love the ambiance and the food here. If you like seafood this is the place. Everything I’ve had is good. The portions are large and you can watch the fish in the ocean!”
“We had no prior knowledge of Blackfly. We chose it because it was close to our rental. We smiled as soon as we walked in the side door leading to the bar area and everybody seemed to be enjoying themselves. The further we entered the very well decorated restaurant the more we knew we had made a good choice. To us, the best reason to visit St. Augustine is dining at the Blackfly! We went all out and had drinks, appetizers, their version of Coquille St. Jacques and their Chilli lime shrimp. Both were delicious and cooked to perfection with exceptional sauces. Main course was a Chef's Special which was baked shrimps, scallops over a bed of thai noodles and a sauce to die for. I had the bone in Pork chop cooked medium rare and it was delicious. Blackfly has a vast selection of wines in their wine cellar and we enjoyed a nice Honig sauvignon blanc. Kudos to Matt, our server, who throughout the evening gave us the right amount of attention and space to relax for our entire dining experience. The food was so good and well prepared that I was compelled to go to the kitchen to thank the staff and gave a large tip for the kitchen staff . Our evening at Blackfly was the highlight of our trip. Thank you Vaughn and staff, you have an outstanding establishment.”
“The ambiance is effortlessly charming, with soft lighting, delicate floral decor, and a cozy yet refined atmosphere that sets the tone for an unforgettable dining experience. The staff were impeccable—welcoming, knowledgeable, and attentive. As for the food—oh, the food. Each dish felt like a masterpiece, with flavors that were both familiar and entirely new. The cocktails were a dream. Especially, the espresso martini. The best one I have ever had! Offering a menu of culinary artistry, this place is an absolute gem!”
“Savannah did a Great job serving us ,truly an a person to be working at your location”
“Absolutely fantastic service was very convenient fast food service our server Ashley knew all the answers to everything and she ordered for us we were not disappointed at all and have been there every time we visit. Lovely atmosphere must see”
“What an amazing experience! If you love wine and food you won’t regret it. Ed was an awesome tour guide!”
“St. Augustine, FL. Oh what a divine breakfast we had at Aviles! Shiraz, who greeted us and served us, was so wonderfully warm, quiet and sweet. Just what you need in the morning. We were the second table to be seated.
I tried shakshuka for the first time. It was incredible. And so was Steve’s croissant, omelet, our coffee, and my Cuban toast. Steve took extra long because on top of his croissant he ate my Cuban toast! They put little jars of Dickinson’s preserves on the table with a nob of real butter so of course he slowed down to savor that.
Aviles felt like a bright cocoon in the morning light with the flowers outside the shuttered windows. What a good memory.”
“Such a lovely afternoon! My husband and I are celebrating our anniversary this week. We found that The Chatsworth has an afternoon tea, which we always look for on our anniversary trips. We were not disappointed! From the warm welcome, to the lovely room with all types of tea china displayed, we were delighted. We had the afternoon tea, with a delicious assortment of teas and a 3-tiered serving dish. Everything was so thoughtfully set out -- such lovely sandwiches and desserts. We were able to enjoy our time there, without being rushed and just enough attention to what we needed. All the while, the music from "Bridgerton" was playing softly in the background. We highly recommend that you spend an afternoon and indulge!”
“Sweet server and and excellent chef. Perfect Dining experience and has been for over 20 years! Mikados never lets me down.
Kid-friendliness: Kid are always welcome but may be afraid of the fire.”
“I bought our piercings at the Port Orange city center event. Froze them until last night, cooked them today as directed. They were delicious. I will be getting them again”
“I was there on October 7th, and I will come back here any time I return to the city. The prices are beyond reasonable, the food was great, and the bartender was awesome. Would recommend to anyone who visits St. George Street.”
“My wife and I did our rehearsal dinner at the taberna and they were phenomenal.The food was sneaky good, I would definitely recommend the plantains, the beans, and most importantly the short rib. The bacon wrapped scallops rocked too!Autumn and her team took tremendous care of our whole group. I can’t say thank you enough.”
“Me and my family have dined here every time when visiting St Augustine and the food has never disappointed me yet, fresh food and a great atmosphere!”
“The food is typical Buffalo wild wings a decent meal with a beer or two. This place stood out for the Great customer service experience, and the manager Mr. Zanzari who keeps a constant eye on the place and makes everything possible to make sure all excels... Thank you Sir.”
“Ordered ox tail. Never had it before just heard how good it is. I'll tell you it was the best beef stew I ever had. Had cabbage and fried broccoli dam it was good will be back soon.”
“Stopped by today 2/14/2025 and sat at the bar for an adult beverage and dessert:) It was a different kind of experience sitting there (usually at a table eating!). Well let me tell you the 2 bartenders Taylor & Lena were the best!! So fun watching them being “mixologists”….so good!! They were so sweet too! And of course our drinks were sooo good, “a chocolate covered kiss and simple beer for the hubby!”. But to top it off Eddie, the chef came out and delivered a special dessert to me. So yummy and he is soooooo nice. OC White’s are so fortunate to have these 3 as part of their staff and many others. And let me mention their food is the best!! Thanks for topping off our Valentine’s Day!!! Jacqueline & Bob Scheidler ♥️”
“The grand opening of the Texas Roadhouse in St. Augustine was a bustling affair, with diners pouring in non-stop. The managers and staff were well-prepared and eager to serve. As I arrived, I noticed the addition of a To Go walk-up window, a fantastic concept that I'll surely use in the future. Our dining experience was delightful, thanks to our server Taylor. She was incredibly pleasant and knowledgeable, making our time there enjoyable. Despite my son running late, she remained patient as I held the table for an extended period. While waiting, I couldn't help but notice Nay, one of the servers, who stood out from the rest. She was not only efficient and diligent but also showed compassion and care. I watched in awe as she communicated with an elderly couple using sign language, engaging them in full conversations. The couple looked so happy and appreciative of Nay's genuine personality, and I was equally impressed. I made sure to inform Nay's manager, Chase, of my observations. The staff's genuine desire to make the dining experience enjoyable is what will bring me back in the near future.”
“Perhaps because of the night lights in the city, there were quite a few people shopping. The place was nice. Everything I ate was delicious.
It was worth the wait.
I loved your Christmas decoration.
It is not economical.”
“We were on the Rum Runner 21+ tonight and it was horrible. My husband and I wanted to get outta there so bad and we couldn’t. Another couple that was there could not wait to get off the ship as well. We get it’s a 21+ and totally fine with the bad words. But the way they talked about sex etc was just nasty and embarrassing. I would not waste my time on this if I were you. It’s nothing like it was said to be. Yea that sang and told jokes but that was it. No pirate stuff, no finding the treasure like we were told. Just not happy at all. We will not return.”
“Beautiful view,beautiful friendly folks and I must say food was delightful! 10 outta 10! Waitress Izabella was also very kind and super friendly and prompt. she also gives good recomendations on what to try! I stopped here on a whim was passing through this town as staying in Jacksonville for the week for work. I must say may stop in again was so good! Waitress recommended the Covina pan fried ..... First time I have ever had....I must say I'm a little obsessed with it now. I read alot of reviews and thought should I stop because alot were not good..... but they gotta be a bunch of Karen's or have no taste buds. By far this place surpasses my expectations. Great Job THE REEF TEAM! The food presentation was excellent also. Till next time I have found my new favorite spot! ❤️”
“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.”
“Small and quaint, lovely staff, food was fast and yummy!!! Highly recommend over chain restaurants. EAT LOCALLY and support small businesses”
“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”
“ordered a 32 piece and were not disappointed! got Nashville hot and santa fe. Nashville wasn't very hot but still tasty. wings were great size and cooked perfectly. so juicy. fries also good. just needed a tad more seasoning. 8 out of 10 will order again!”
“We had a celebration of life for my Dad here today. They did a brunch buffet. The staff and food were wonderful. We had a private room. Highly recommended!”
“Was visiting the area and looking for a nice burger spot. It's delivery only but this was by far one of the best burgers I have ever had. And the Chefs seasoned potatoes really blew it over the top. Price was reasonable too. If you haven't tried it. Try it.”

“Great burgers that have the freshest lettuce and tomato toppings of any restaurant I've been to. Pickles and onions taste great also. And you can customize the amount you want. Also, there aren't too many places that have real dairy shakes. But you can get real dairy here! Steak n' Shake definitely has the best shakes, and during happy hour they're half price. A very friendly place and the owners really put a lot of effort into making it a very pleasant dining experience.”
“Ok, so it has been a while since I did a review. This summer I am starting a blog on biscuits and gravy. So today my fiancée and I decided to enjoy the day in St Augustine. I made a post on 904Eats on facebook and asked for a place between Jax and Aug on HWY 1. I got The Spot Cafe. I ordered the southern comfort, biscuits, and gravy with chicken between them. Came with eggs and home-style potatoes. It was so good. When I start my biscuits and gravy blog (summer 2025). I will be sure to add this place. The biscuits were fluffy and most. The gravy just needed a little more pepper for my taste. On my blog scale, I will give it a 9.5 out of 10. Views going on Yelp, Google Review, and my blog page coming soon.”
“I was on vacation when I saw this restaurant in St. Augustine FL. I saw the menu and said I have to go in and get something! I am a grilled cheese connoisseur and I make some good ones myself but oh my gosh, the grilled Mac and Cheese I had with I can't remember what kind of meat was AMAZING! So was the tomato soup! This amazing 70's music was playing inside and I was dancing waiting for my take out. It was so cool inside! They asked for my name and I told them. Little did I know when I came back in a few days later where we ate inside that time, that the man who waited on me 2 days before would remember me and call me by name! Holy cow! That was so cool! He said it was because I was dancing. I'm a dancer with 5 trophies so yeah, I was dancing to that good music but to remember me like that! If you love grilled Mac and Cheese or just grilled cheese in general and you love tomato soup, you have to eat here! I promise you will not be disappointed at all! Next time I want some Poutine and another sandwich! YUM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”
“This is one of the very best Sushi restaurants that i have ever eaten at. The service was spectacular and the selection of sushi and sashimi was stupendous. I have eaten in many Sushi restaurants and I have to say this is by far my favorite . Whenever we are in St. Augustine I know we will eat there again. My husband, who does not like sushi, also loved the food he was able to get.”
“What a gem St Augustine has in its’ midst! We recently visited the fine establishment after reading previous reviews and was overwhelmed by the kindness and expertise of the owner! We were novices and had never prepared blue crab before. Instead of being annoyed at our lack of knowledge, he explained at great length and in easy to understand detail, how to prepare his delicious crab in several different ways. We served up a delightful, delicious meal that evening! The seafood was exceptional! He and his small business is a real asset to the community! You won’t be disappointed!!!!”
“The grand opening of the Texas Roadhouse in St. Augustine was a bustling affair, with diners pouring in non-stop. The managers and staff were well-prepared and eager to serve. As I arrived, I noticed the addition of a To Go walk-up window, a fantastic concept that I'll surely use in the future. Our dining experience was delightful, thanks to our server Taylor. She was incredibly pleasant and knowledgeable, making our time there enjoyable. Despite my son running late, she remained patient as I held the table for an extended period. While waiting, I couldn't help but notice Nay, one of the servers, who stood out from the rest. She was not only efficient and diligent but also showed compassion and care. I watched in awe as she communicated with an elderly couple using sign language, engaging them in full conversations. The couple looked so happy and appreciative of Nay's genuine personality, and I was equally impressed. I made sure to inform Nay's manager, Chase, of my observations. The staff's genuine desire to make the dining experience enjoyable is what will bring me back in the near future.”
“My wife and I came here for our 31st anniversary. A highly rated restaurant. My meal, steak bowl, was very tasty. The steak was tuff. Over cooked I think. My wife had a fish meal. I forget which. She was very disappointed in the taste and quality of her meal. I have NEVER see my wife complain about a meal before. When our waitress (she was great!) Asked how the meal was my wife told her. Later a woman, not a lady, came to our table concerning our dissatisfaction. She seemed to be insulted and left in a huff. Normally a dissatisfied customer is given a discount or a free dessert. Something. Nothing was offered. What should have been an enjoyable dining experience for Saint Augustine residents celebrating their anniversary was left lacking. 🤢”

“What can I say about this place that our waitress didn’t do to make it amazing and memorable! Catie was fantastic! Very sweet, very bubbly and on it! I had the best time because of her attention to detail. She was just great. Took our plates away after every “meal,” she kept our table clean and friendly with her energy and enthusiasm. She recommended the Brussels and they were on point! She made this a great time for us. She sets the bar high for all other establishments! Well done.”
“Our favorite spot to end the day when visiting St. Augustine! The drinks are great and fairly priced. When you go, make sure to ask to sit in Will’s area. Will has always been our server when there over the past couple of years and actually remembered us a year later after our 1st week there. Maybe we spent a little too many evenings here… Nah!”
“Visiting from Maine and stopped at Woodpeckers for lunch. I’m not sure anything back home compares! Everything was delicious, quick service and friendly staff. Definitely recommend the mac and cheese and Datil bbq sauce. I will absolutely be back on future visits to the area.”

“We had a fantastic meal! The beet poke was fresh and had great flavor and the 3 ramen dishes we ordered were all out of this world good! I had a sake cocktail that was refreshing and well balanced and my hubby had a nice sweet potato beer. Definitely worth the hour drive for us!”
