15 Best Barbeque Restaurants in St. Augustine

“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.“

“A group of us went to Sonnys on the Fourth of July for lunch. The ribs were very good some said the best they’ve ever had. I had the big meal deal with the beef sandwich and the beef was very tender. Service was great. Only thing we miss is the salad bar🥲“

“This place has some great food and super friendly staff! Will definitely be back next time we’re in St. Augustine!“

“Just finished having a picnic for 2 from Smokin D’s BBQ!!! I would recommend this place to anyone looking for a dynamite bbq place to eat. Well worth the trip. Best BBQ I have had in a long time. Never had smoked turkey before but they recommend it and I will most definitely have more and the ribs OMG fall off the bone meat. The beans yes more please. Next trip to St. Augustine we will definitely be eating here again.“

“We love BBQ, and this is one of our top favorites in the area. Our kids love their garlic toast and fries. All of their sides are really delicious. Friendly and fast service too. Doing all things right!“

“We tried Mojo BBQ for the first time last Friday night during Nights of Lights. We walked right in and sat at the bar. Bartender was very friendly and attentive. Drinks were good and food came out pretty fast and was delicious! Will definitely go back during our next St. Augustine visit.“

“Oh my goodness!! Coming from Tennessee we know BBQ and this place is AMAZING!! You can’t go wrong!! The food is 5 star excellent!! The ladies up front are soooo friendly! It’s nice and cool at the tables and the peacocks 🦚 will definitely entertain you!! We had the Southern Fries and the Cuban sandwich and the Brisket sandwich all of which were made to order and piping hot!! So delicious!! We will definitely hit them up one more time before heading back home!! Forgot to get a pic of the Cuban but it was toasted just right and sooooo good!!“

“This is a great spot! It’s located right on the main strip, so it’s easy to get to with parking on site. They have beer as well as a full liquor bar and in my opinion are better priced than most bars around here. The side bar has a bit of a dive bar feel, which I love! And as a cute plus there was this kitty on site, which was purrfect! 🐈‍⬛

Parking: Parking lot in front as well as street parking.“

“Visited this restaurant as part of a trip to St.Augustine beach area.
The atmosphere was very nice BBQ cabin feel
The food was really good. The ribs were a hint overcooked but not a problem.
The seevice was fantastic and prices are reasonable.“

“We had an awesome server (older lady I wish I could remember her name!). Everyone was happy with their food, the atmosphere, and they sat 8 people at a nice large ROUND table :) Kid friendly as child was given kids menu with crayons which kept her happy the whole time :)

Kid-friendliness: Wonderful to children“

“Great place Great people highly recommend it great view I'll give it a 5 out of 5“

“Michael and Kelly catered my daughter’s wedding. Ultimate professionals! They were awesome from the planning stages right through to the event. They worked with us in designing the menu and were flexible as the headcount fluctuated up until the big day.
They showed up right on time at a venue in Clay County. Their set up was elegant and beautiful, not just the disposable chafing pans, but a very nice presentation. The food was incredible and received high praise from the guests (pork, turkey, chicken, beans, Mac and cheese, roasted Brussels sprouts, salad, bread, sauces, veggie platters, banana pudding). They attended the buffet during the whole event, even taking care of a few other traditional family dishes that we made ourselves. They were exceptionally polite and gracious to all of us, even the guests who made special requests. I highly recommend them for any event! So much more than what you might expect from a bbq food truck.“

“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.“

“Great Service and atmosphere loved the food. Will be back soon“
