Had a very good brunch. Complete menu- lots of choices. Service complete. Will return, glad it's in the neighborhood.

My husband and I decided to 'try somewhere different' for a rare lunch date. We googled 'restaurants near me' and found Cafe Cairano. Thinking it was a hidden gem because we had never heard of it, we gave it a try. Sadly, it wasn't all we expected it to be. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Once we found it hidden in the back of a small shopping center in World Golf Village, we went inside to an empty restaurant at what should've been a bustling lunchtime crowd.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The restaurant had all of two employees working. The cashier/waitress asked us to seat ourselves and she brought us the menus. 5, yes FIVE, different things that we attempted to order were out of stock! How do you run a restaurant when 5 staple items are out of stock.... Hamburger patties, bacon, onion rings, and all fountain drinks including coke & dr. Pepper???? It quickly became obvious why the entire restaurant was empty! After we made alternative choices from the menu and received our meals, the waitress spent the entire time we were in her presence talking in the phone and to someone who seemed to be a regular patron that had come in after us to pick up a to-go order. I heard her say that 'today is my last day because I'm moving.' After hearing that, it made sense as to why she never came back to our table to see if we needed anything. We even had to request she bring our check so that we could pay the bill and leave. She was 'too busy' to notice we were finished & waiting.... The food that we got wasn't horrible.... Too bad the service wasn't that great. We most certainly did NOT receive a good first impression and likely won't give it a second try! read more

This is a destination. Not only had I never heard of the restaurant before, but had no idea the shopping center was there - just after entering World Golf Village on the left. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It was clean. Bathrooms were clean.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The waitstaff was efficient and welcoming. Ordering was easy and delivered quickly. iPad menus are a step-above most with their technology and limits the use of readers. And the food was fresh, cooked exactly as requested and coffee was plentiful. Will definitely return to his hidden gem. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]It was sort of a disappointment since this establishment was in the legendary World Golf Village.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]I needed a magnifying glass to find the restaurant tucked way back in the corner[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] . We waited a feww minutes to get our menus and drinks. Wifey had the mimosa flight. I wanted a Miller lite but had to settle for a Blue moon. They were out of Miller. [[HIGHLIGHT]]While we waited for a food, music was on point for a Saturday afternoon.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I had the grilled chicken sandwich with my choice of cheese and purple onions. My side was onion rings. Not really hot and fresh looking. Wifey had french toast, cheesy grits and sausage. It was a good time and food was appealing. Wifey will bring the ladies here for afteroon lunch or italian feast. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Quaint cafe with a chance to relax and unwind.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] It was a nice trip and a nice visit. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Cafe Cariano does what it is called. A simple cafe and a simple feel at the World Golf Village.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Come and partake the cafe feel. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Looks are really deceiving![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I changed my rating and actually like the place with a few hiccup! Oops, I almost forgot, there was no vodka for my bloody mary which I definitely wanted! read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Very cozy hole in the wall near World Golf Village.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Chose this restaurant due to location for a meetup with a client and it was pretty good.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Their menu is on iPads which was interesting. Our party of 3 each was given an iPad but you don't order off of it, felt kind of pointless? Staff was light when we dined and the cook was also waiting tables so food came out one order at a time causing a bit of a backlog. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I wouldn't recommend if you are looking for a quick bite but if you are looking to spend a little time catching up or chatting, good place to do so.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Also has a cute breakfast bar for dining.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I had a build your own omelette and it was good. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Interesting little place to catch breakfast.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] They arrived and opened a few minutes late, but had good service and a nice environment to have a business conversation. Food was fine, selection could have been a bit better, but for breakfast and a change of pace it was nice. Won't be my regular coffee and morning hangout, but I encourage you to give it a try. read more

The café is located in the Town Center West shopping center of World Golf Village (WGV). "Where" you're probably wondering. To spell it out...it's across from Buc-ee's in WGV and just to the left after you go through the light into WGV. A lot of folks think nothing is in that shopping center or drive past it without giving it another thought. But, there are businesses in there, and among them lies this little hidden gem called Café Cairano. [[HIGHLIGHT]]This is such a cozy and welcoming little place![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] My girlfriends and I have been here a few times for brunch and it never disappoints. I love eggs benedict and they have a few options to choose from. That said, every eggs benedict option is delicious to the last crumb. They have other options as well; like omelets, avocado toast, waffles, breakfast sandwiches, etc. I must admit...I/we enjoy the fun option of the mimosa flight to share with friends. Moreover, they have a lunch and dinner menu as well. The service is always good & friendly, the prices are fair, and the portions are ample. Can't get much better than that! [[HIGHLIGHT]]There is indoor and outdoor seating too.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Moreover, there is plenty of parking in the shopping center overall. So if you are in the area of Buc-ee's, or Costco, and are looking for some place to sit down to have a good meal...check it out! read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Small restaurant with limited seating.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] French toast was ok nothing to write home about. Western omelette was very good. Service was the best that could be provided as the server was alone and busy. Unfortunately we found a better place so won't return but still 3.5 to 4 stars. No pictures read more

Terrible food and rude manager. super super slow as well. I ordered a meal at 9:30 am through Uber Eats.. arrived at 11..the driver was very nice and apologized for delivering delayed due to this restaurant being extremely slow. Once it arrived, it was cold and my ice tea had zero ice left. Also did not receive hashrowns i paid extra for. Called and spoke to manager and she was very very rude. I couldn't even explain what had happened without her rudely interrupting me . Would not recommend this place.. so slow and terrible customer service . Just wanted a refund on what i did not receive .. manager said ok and then just hung up on me . Zero refund . Wanted to try this place and never will be back read more

Only got a pic of our mimosas cause everything else was basically inhaled haha. The boyfriend and I were looking for another place to eat since our hotel doesn't have the best breakfast. [[HIGHLIGHT]]This place is very cozy and can't fit too many people but since it was just the two of us it wasn't a problem.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] For our meal we both got the Greenbush breakfast sandwich with added avocado. It was absolutely delicious and the bread it was on tasted very fresh! The only reason my review gets a four and not five star is the server wasn't super attentive and even though we requested waters a few times it wasn't not brought to us until we asked another person that had brought out our food. Edit: moved this to five stars because of the owners prompt and kind response! read more

This family owned business is quite the little find! It is located in a hidden strip mall across from Costco. The daughter was very friendly and attentive. Mom was in the kitchen cooking and managing the orders timely. The corned beef was delicious, I like mine a little crispier so will ask for that next time. My husband had the sausage egg and cheese on a Kaiser and said it was delicious, bread was so soft and it reminded him of a good ol' NY breakfast sandwich. I on the other hand ordered the Saratoga and although it was delicious it was not what I expected. It had onions which I did not recall seeing that in the description of this sandwich but could be wrong. Also I had wanted an egg over easy with the ingredients but instead got a fried egg scramble. Overall, we really did love this place and we would def go back!! I posted a pic of their Eggs Benedict - we did not order it but I know what to get next time!! Try this place out - support this family owned eatery! read more

My friend and I stayed nearby and ended up having our first breakfast and last breakfast at Cairano's. They strive to please their customers and were very accomodating in being attentive to my friend's allergy restrictions. Our waitress was sweet and our food was very good. My only negative would be (and I find this with so many breakfast spots) the avocado toast would be SO much better is a better quality bread was used. My egg was perfect though so I won't complain... just saying. read more

Great new spot I found, great all day breakfast, nice service...corned beef benny was great and also rare find...will be back many times..

Had a nice breakfast here. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Quiet and calm atmosphere.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The food was good. I got avocado toast and a pancake both of which I enjoyed. Thanks read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]To the Owner: please clean your restrooms regularly. The men's restroom today was absolutely disgusting. The toilet had mold growing in it that had been there for a long time and the trash was overflowing.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]This at 10:30 in the morning. I originally was going to eat, but when I saw the condition of the bathroom and sticky floor in the main area, it told me that your kitchen was probably as dirty as your bathroom.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I opted for coffee only. Please it takes less than five minutes to clean a bathroom. read more

Went here for early dinner and was greeted by very friendly staff . [[HIGHLIGHT]]The place was small but since we were the only customers, it felt comfortable.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I had the chicken fettuccine Alfredo and it was very good! The chicken was grilled perfectly and the sauce was rich, creamy , and had a subtle herb flavor. I had a bite of my husband's Philly cheesesteak and it was also delicious! The fries were dusted with herb and Parmesan cheese and tasted fresh. Great food and excellent service! read more

Cafe Cairano - please excuse the half eaten omelet. I started eating it before I took a photo. Food is delicious!!!!! - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - St. Augustine, Florida

[[HIGHLIGHT]]This is a nice breakfast / lunch spot right in the World Golf Village complex.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We had breakfast there. I had a full stack of pancakes, but the short stack would have been more than enough. My wife had an omelette which was good. The service was excellent. It's a nice place for breakfast without the hassle of parking in downtown St Augustine. read more

Tucked away in an aging strip mall, this hidden gem proves that to be great, it's better to do a few things really well rather than doing a lot of things just average. Sandwiches and breakfast offerings have all been on point along with an enthusiastic (if overwhelmed at times) staff and kitchen. Definitely worth a visit if you are in the WGV area. read more

Cafe Cairano - Mediterranean style avocado toast - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - St. Augustine, Florida

My family and I were visiting St Augustine and decided to stop at Cafe Cairano. [[HIGHLIGHT]]My first impression was nice, clean and looked appealing.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] An hour or so later and we received our food. It was food. It wasn't bad just food. I had the Greek (avocado toast with feta and tomato) with an over medium egg. The toast was seriously toasted. Large toast that was hard to cut is not proper eating etiquette. Probably not somewhere I would go again. read more

Nice food. Nice staff. Good lunch combo. We had half pastrami sandwich with a house salad and a whole pastrami, made to order.

If I could give negative stars, that is what would have been registered. We attempted to eat here. We arrived and was immediately greeted by a server who said she needed to clean a table for us. Fine. No problem. As she was cleaning our table, another party arrived. [[HIGHLIGHT]]When we were sat, the table had a dirty tablecloth as it was not changed - just wiped. This was a cloth tablecloth.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Not great, but we decided to just stick it out. That should have been our sign to leave. When we were seated, no menus were given. We sat for a good 10 minutes with no menus the party that came in after us were seated after another table was 'cleaned'. They were provided menus immediately along with having their drink order taken. Same server. We finally received menus and gave drink order. 10 minutes later, no drinks and no food order taken. The table that came in after us received their drinks and had their food order taken. Another party came in and sat at the counter. They immediately got their menus, drink order, and food order taken. Same server. At this point we got up and walked out. 20 minutes of sitting at the table without receiving our drinks and no food ordered all while 2 other tables were waited on. read more

Amazing!! We ate there twice for breakfast then came back tonight for dinner! The food is sooooo good! And Service is fantastic ! We loved everything we tried- and we tried a lot! We will definitely be back! read more

Delicious. Food was fresh called for a reservation and was greeted promptly. Menu was nice variety but not overwhelming read more

Wife enjoyed her avocado toast. My eggs Benedict, had several issues. The English muffin was not toasted. The eggs were not poached. There are three things that make a good eggs Benedict, toasted English muffins, poached eggs that have a soft yolk, and the hollandaise sauce. The eggs were the pre made egg that was cooked with a semi solid white in one egg and the other with a solid yolk. If you are going to put 4 different eggs Benedict on your menu, then have the basics cooked right. read more

My wife and I eat both breakfast and dinner while visiting the area. Both meals were spectacular. Would highly recommend visiting.

This café is a 5-star Hidden Gem that we would highly recommend for dinner. We had bruschetta for our appetizer, Caprese, salad, spinach ravioli, chicken cacciatore, and angel hair carbonara. The food was excellent, generous portions and reasonably priced. To top it all off Kayla, our server with a beautiful smiling face was so very pleasant and efficient. BRAVO!!! read more

Service is awful. We sat down at 11 and didn't get our food until noon. It wasn't even busy. Very disappointed in the lack of urgency of the staff. Had to ask waiter to refill drink multiple times. Left over plates from previous customers were sitting on the tables the entire hour we were there and they had time to clean it but chose not to. read more

What great food! In a strip mall you might miss it. Wonderful Italian specialties for dinner as well as standard breakfast and lunch offerings. We went twice while staying at the Bluegreen World Golf resort. Great friendly service too! read more

The atmosphere is very confusing. It had Italian, Greek, and American decoration on the walls and with the bar it did not really feel like a cafe. However, the food was really good and the waitresses were really kind. read more

Had a wonderful breakfast there on Saturday. Service was great and the food was delicious! Its a small place, but they take great care of you! read more

Stopped for lunch. Great food. Clean and friendly. Varied menus. Open for dinner Tuesday and Wednesday

Cafe Cairano holds a homey energy run with smiling faces and food that is out of this world. The owner personally attends to all of the customers while also cooking delicious meals. While I was in town I had the pleasure of experiencing both lunch and breakfast at the cafe. I went back for more the next day because the menu was so extensive and I was excited to try more. The quality of the food was wonderful and thoughtfully prepared. It was a very friendly and cleanly environment to reunite with friends in. I look forward to my next trip and I strongly recommend to all. read more
