    Clean, friendly, fun!
    Dan B.

    The food was awesome! The service was friendly! And the atmosphere was relaxed! My family and I got so much food and the portions matched the price! Stop here next time you're in St Augustine, I suggest the Southwestern Egg rolls!

    Very polite and fast service we'll definitely be back

    Very quick and friendly staff. BLT and Easter island chicken sandwich was delicious. We'll have to come back with the kids

    Nachos with cheese
    Faith E.

    Stopped in on a Sunday night (during December/St Augie Christmas festivities) but we were able to get seated before the rush. Our server was really nice and personable. She took our orders quickly and had pleasant conversation. Our food arrived pretty quickly and was hot and steamy. Here's what we got and our thoughts: Fish and chips - very good. Very mild and large portions. Aloha chicken - a chicken breast (I chose grilled) with ham and pineapple on top. I'm a sucker for pineapple. It was very, very good! Really nice sandwich. Nachos with cheese for the kid - they were.... Ok. To be fair, our server did warn us that it wasn't queso (we assumed it wasn't) but that it was nacho cheese. Kid was more than happy with nacho cheese. But.... It was more like... plain cheddar cheese sauce, like what comes in the Campbells can. It wasn't great. We were a little surprised by our total when the bill came, until we noticed that they automatically included a "large party 18% service fee". There were three of us. Two adults and a kid. I guess we didn't realize that three people is considered a "large party." Overall... it was a decent meal.

    The rundown: Nice, casual environment with friendly service and reasonable pricing. The review: As one of the few late night food restaurants open, we decided to give Barefoot Bill's a try. We were met with friendly staff and found a variety of burger options. I was glad to see there were a good number of toppings that could be chosen for no additional cost - always fun! I went with a burger and pasta salad side. The side was quite small, but good. The burger was decent. *Be advised they are cooked well-done so those of you preferring other temperatures may be disappointed. I appreciated the staff enthusiasm, especially at the later hour and while festivities were going on away from their location (this was during Halloween). If you're in the mood for something casual and you have limited options, I'd say give Bill's a go. They may not come off as the lost memorable, but they will take care of you.

    Blackened Shrimp Poboy

    I stumbled in for a quick bite to eat at Barefoot Bills Island Grill. There is an upbeat family, friendly vibe. Fun decor for the holidays and a bunch of tiki masks my blackened shrimp Poboy was awesome.. It was exactly what I expected plus the fries are delicious. Food is reasonably priced and certainly a value compared to all the other overpriced restaurants off of St. George. Marie was my server and she got me in and out of the restaurant quickly, which was my goal. Marie took great care of me. I look forward to coming back and trying other menu items, especially since I work nearby.

    Fish taco

    Had the fish tacos that were recommended by everyone...fish was soggy but seasoned ok...maybe a frozen tilapia that's was cooked. Not really all that great for 17$. Salt life has better fish tacos. A friend I ate with had raw chicken wings that were pink and bloody still. Don't think we will ever eat here again.

    Got seating quickly, considering it was a holiday weekend.. Ordered burger and tacosb since we knew that if we ordered any specials, it would take time as the place was packed due to the Christmas season.. The jerk burger has a kick to it as expected.. They were both good... Service was also good... They do have indoor and outdoor seating. It's located right in the center of the historic district..

    Not much atmosphere and the menu had nothing unique. We only sat at the bar and had a few drinks, but we did have a direct view of the kitchen and one of the cooks never once changed his gloves, even after handling raw chicken and then grabbing rolls with the same gloves had. Not much concern for food handling practices displayed. Definitely won't be back

    Quick little nibble before we venture out to sea for a couple hours. Grilled shrimp salad for Queen Bee and a burger with LTOP for me; no fries. I asked for slaw instead. We sat at the bar as the two lady barkeeps and one of the kitchen dwellers all day around and discussed online clothing purchases they wanna make. Personally, I don't really care but I don't think I should hafta listen in on people's personal business when I'm a guest of theirs. Anyway, Queen Bee loved her salad, topped by half a dozen good sized and well grilled shrimp...romaine, banana peppers, mozzarella cheese and tomatoes are other ingredients in the salad. That sucker went down faster than a fat kid on a see saw! She made a happy bowl even though it was a pretty big bowl anyway! Burger was charred outside and a decent medium well inside. Items I chose as toppings made for a slightly sloppy sammich but not horribly so. My only suggestion would be that they toast the rather plain ordinary (borderline crappy) bun! Slaw was a nice portion of great, creamy and slightly acidic bunch of Napa, purple cabbages and carrot. Way casual joint with very little vibe of any sort. Server was fairly attentive when she wasn't discussing fashion purchase choices with her coworkers. Food certainly was okay and then some. Three stars is STILL all it gets and I don't think we'd ever bother with this joint again. Eh

    Well...for a touristy area like St Augustine I think this place is exactly what you would expect for bar/food. The waitress was super friendly and attentive. Food came out quick and was good..not bad but not spectacular either. What really surprised/irritated me was they added an automatic tip for our party of 6 tho 4 of the party are 15 and under abs all ordered from kids menu. If it was 6 adults maybe I can see the auto tip but honestly when you do that I don't add anything else. If you don't trust an adult to add their own tip you're getting whatever you add yourself nothing more.

    Had a very good selection of beverages. Fun atmosphere-a good place to stop along your stroll in St Augustine

    Big Kahuna Nacho 's with Chicken

    Found this place while looking for somewhere to watch some NFL Sunday games while visiting the area. The staff was friendly, the drinks were cold, they had the game on, and the food was good enough to wander back one day if we wanted to. We ordered chicken nachos and another appetizer I forgot the name of...and it was a good size to share with some cold brews in hand. It's a small location and it's located at the end of a strip mall so seating might be a problem on some days.

    French Pantry, established in 1995 in St. Augustine, FL, was nothing short of phenomenal!…read moreEverything we had was absolutely delicious, from the fresh oysters and Bang Bang Shrimp Po' Boy with truffle fries and garlic aioli, to the amazing Night Market cocktail made with Brugal 1888 rum, Amaro Nonino, Fernet, pineapple, ginger, lime and crème de coconut. And of course, we had to grab a Miller Lite too! We also tried the pork fried rice from their Vietnamese side restaurant, La Miss Ha -- coconut fried rice with eggs, onions, bell peppers, carrots, peas and green onions. So good! A huge shoutout to our bartender/server, Will, who made the experience even better! The service, food and atmosphere were all amazing. They've also recently opened a new speakeasy, with happy hour from 4-9 PM and the speakeasy staying open until 11 PM every Saturday. 10/10 experience and definitely somewhere we'd come back to. Thank you, Will, and everyone at the establishment for such a great time!

    Sometimes you go looking for breakfast and end up discovering a place that makes you question every…read morebreakfast you've ever had before it. That was French Pantry in St. Augustine. We chose this spot for breakfast/brunch and what a fantastic find. The atmosphere is beautiful and upscale without feeling like you need to whisper or worry that you're holding your fork incorrectly. I went with the Gruyère cheese and ham omelette, and honestly, I'm not sure how they managed to make eggs this light. The omelette was delicate, fluffy, and absolutely delicious. The kind of breakfast where you take a bite and immediately start thinking, "Well, now I'm going to have to compare every omelette I eat from this point forward." My wife ordered the spinach and mushroom quiche, which can only be described as decadent. Rich, flavorful, and the kind of dish that makes you slow down and appreciate what's happening on the plate. The atmosphere is beautiful, the service was spectacular, and the entire experience felt like a special occasion even though we were simply there for breakfast. French Pantry was a fantastic find and absolutely deserving of five stars. If you're in St. Augustine looking for a breakfast or brunch experience that feels a little elevated, this is one to put on your list.

    We were rather surprised to find a restaurant in Saint Augustine that specializes in ... grilled…read morecheese sandwiches! One would think there's not much you can do with a grilled cheese sandwich, but the Grilled Cheese Gallery proves that assumption wrong. There are 13 amazing and creative choices of grilled cheese here. Don't like grilled cheese? They also serve salads, poutine, mac & cheese grilled sandwiches, ice cream and other desserts. This is Comfort Food headquarters! There were actually so many choices it was hard to choose. I chose A Night in Amsterdam: Gouda, Gruyere, Swiss, Cheddar, on Artisan White. My wife had The Queen Brie: House cured bacon, French Brie, Raspberry Puree, Balsamic on Sourdough. My Amsterdam was quite a creation: three slices balanced on a pedestal with cheese trailing down more than a foot. It was delicious! My wife lauded her Queen Brie as well. We wish we had more time in Saint Augustine as this place is definitely worth a second visit.

    Yum!! I came here as part of a party of 5 on a trip to St. Augustine this past weekend. We were…read moretired and a little hangry when we walked in, and thankfully, everyone in the group loved this place! We ordered: the Amsterdam, the Artist, the Queen Brie, and the Classic (2 sandwiches). Three of us upgraded to a small cup of tomato soup (each order comes with a mini cup for dipping). I was the lucky person who ordered the Amsterdam, which, much to our surprise and delight, was served on a hook with melted cheese stretching down to the tray it was served on. Everyone had to take a photo of my sandwich! It contained a variety of cheeses, so while the taste was fairly classic, it was a bit more nuanced than the Classic sandwich, which only had cheddar cheese. Everyone else thought their sandwiches were delicious too. And we all loved the homemade tomato soup! I tend to be a bigger fan of creamy tomato soups, but this one was rich with umami flavor and had a bit of a kick. While this is a counter-service restaurant that's pretty much no-frills, the employees were friendly and helpful. One of them refilled our water cups at the table, even though the pitcher she had was leaking, and I didn't get the sense that they normally did that. Sadly, they don't sell soft serve ice cream any more, but there are so many ice cream shops in this part of St. Augustine that you can easily walk somewhere else for dessert (which we did). The place wasn't crowded on a Friday evening and had lots of menu choices, so if you like grilled cheese sandwiches, whether creative or simple, be sure to stop by the Grilled Cheese Gallery on your visit to St. Augustine!
