    Lobster Benedict
    Brianna R.

    I stopped by Connolly's this morning for breakfast and was thoroughly impressed. I'm just visiting the area, so I've never been. My server, Robin, was super sweet and confirmed that my decision to order the lobster benedict was indeed a good one. In addition to the options on the menu, they also had a handful of specials available. The lobster benedict was excellent. The sauce was rich but not overwhelming and just overall delicious. I also really enjoyed the ambiance. It was somewhat industrial but also super cozy.

    Pork roll, potatoes

    Great service and food! I would absolutely come back when I return to St Augustine! The Bloody Mary was one of the best I've had too!!

    their hot sauce was incredible.

    the food. the service. i was blown away!!! it gave a family owned feel but i really enjoyed our time on the patio with pups. they were an absolute hoot. the breakfast sando. the fries. the home fries (omg) the meat lovers omelette. they even had their own hot sauce & that was phenomenal. my new go to breakfast spot when i visit st. aug! highly recommend visiting :) kindly, GTB

    Eggs Benedict. Wonderfully cooked.  Eggs perfect !!

    Wonderful place. We make it a point to come here every time we visit Saint Augustine. Food is great and coffee is even better. Very friendly staff and very welcoming. We will definitely be back !

    Lobster Benedict super yummy, holindaise was nice.  They let me try their sausage gravy and it was proper.

    Overall 5 stars, locals and regulars. Lobster Benedict was yummy, sampled sausfae gravy and it was proper. I see why it is a locals favorite. My only downside is eggs were like 30 seconds over so they didnt run but I ate it all and potatoes were salty but that could be my personal palette.

    Veggie omelette

    We tried this cute breakfast spot in St Augustine and it was very good. Prices were reasonable and the staff was very friendly. It is a bright place on the inside with a lot of choices on the menu. We tried the eggs Benedict, create your own omelette, veggie omelette, and a breakfast combo with bacon. Tea and juice were very reasonably priced as well, and all the food portions were quite large. We were heading to the St Augustine Lighthouse and we were full for several hours while there. This is a great spot for breakfast or brunch. They close early so get in by lunchtime if you want to try them!

    Had a fantastic Ladies lunch here today! Service was excellent! Food was great quality and tasty. Everyone enjoyed their meal and said they'd return! Clean bathrooms. Owner, Trish stopped by and chatted with us too! Highly recommend.

    Gluten free French toast and pork roll
    Amy P.

    Yum! Seriously so happy to find a breakfast place that has not only gluten free pancakes but GLUTEN FREE FRENCH TOAST AND WAFFLES!!!! Clyde was our server and did a great job! They have real maple syrup (just ask for it). The gf French toast was absolutely delicious!! The gluten eater in the group enjoyed French toast as well. Super cute place, terrific service and delicious food. Well worth the drive!

    Special order chocolate chip pancake. Yum!

    Had to check out of our beach condo by 10 am so we decided to grab breakfast here on our way out of town. Inside had cute diner decor with outside seating available as well. Our party of seven was seated immediately. Staff were friendly and the service was quick. Breakfast menu had both sweet and savory choices. Kids went with a chocolate chip pancake and French toast served with the most perfectly crisped bacon. I had a breakfast sandwich with absolutely delicious toasted potatoes on the side. Everything hit the spot.

    Excellent service, food was a miss today due to staff shortage. It was a fun and enjoyable environment. Our food took about 50 minutes to come out of the kitchen. We waited and asked the server several times. I believe there was 1 cook today and others called out of work. The restaurant was filled with lots of people enjoying St. Patrick's Day here. There was live music and all the staff were dressed to celebrate. Unfortunately, half the food on each plate was overcooked or burnt. The other half was good. I would have gave less stars but the service was so good and everyone was so friendly. I hope if we come back we would get to enjoy this restaurant at its best.

    Excellent place for breakfast! Small family owned place and they put their heart and soul into every part of the business. Andrew was our server again and he was superb!

    Veggie omelet
    Stephanie S.

    Amazing hearty breakfast. Veggie omelette was loaded. Grits (not pictured) were the perfect consistency. Pancakes were scrumptious, soft with crispy edges. I'd come back here any day of the week! Great quick service.

My wife had the Sunset Shrimp Pasta Bowl which had 9 pieces of shrimp in a cream based sauce which she said was fantastic! We also got a free t-shirt for our efforts! Woohoo!

The inside has a fun, laid-back beach vibe, and the staff made us feel welcome from the moment we walked in. Our server was super friendly, attentive, and took great care of us. We ordered the redfish special, which was blackened Redfish, topped with crawfish étouffée, served over a grit cake. Everything on the plate worked together perfectly, and the fish was cooked just right. We also had the homemade chips with salsa and beer queso. The queso isn't your typical Mexican-style queso, so don't go in expecting that. It's a rich, flavorful beer queso, and I actually really enjoyed the different twist. It paired perfectly with the fresh, crispy chips. They also have a cute little bar that looked like a great place to grab a drink. We'll definitely be back to work our way through more of the menu.

The corned beef is full of shredded corned beef with just a small amount of potatoes.

The salads and entrees were fresh, loaded with high quality ingredients, and each was remarkably tasty and well made. The grilled foods were grilled to perfection and the smokey taste of the grill was embedded into every bite. Black Molly dinner salads are enormous - they are a full dinner in and of themselves. There is a Cesar, a Mediterranean, and a Chef salad offered. I had the Chef and The Boss had the Mediterranean with Shrimp. I had no idea they were as big as they were or we might have downsized a little. They came in a bowl that was really big, full of fresh mixed garden greens, excellent grilled vegetables, plump juicy tomatoes and were a delicious meal all by themselves. Half the salads went home with us to provide another meal. The shrimp were huge and perfectly prepared. The Chef Salad had great hunks of real ham and the most amazing produce and the dressings were excellent. I will be saddened to go back to store bought dressings and ranch and balsamic glazes. Get a side of (I think you have to specifically ask for) "Crispy" French fries no matter what else you order.

The restaurant is not inexpensive, but it is worth it. Quality food prepared with great attention to detail, fabulous tastes and excellent value. If you want a fresh, delicious, exceptional ingredient meal prepared to perfection, give the Black Molly a try!!!

My spouse and I checked out the self-guided tour right before we grabbed dinner at The Ice Plant. The tour isn't particularly long but was filled with information. After the tour, we headed upstairs to the restaurant. The restaurant feels really spacious with its super tall ceilings. There was lots to look at reminding us of the previous use of the building. We ordered the hand cut fries, strawberry and beet salad, and the gochujang marinated pork chop. I also ordered a few of their drinks, each one featuring different types of ice to fit the drink. Honestly all the food and the drinks were so good, but the easy standout of the night for both my spouse and I were the pork chops. These might have been the best pork chops I've ever had in my life. The pork chops were incredibly tender and juicy, not dry at all. I was expecting it to be a little dry, as I feel like pork chop can sometimes get overcooked, but no. These were so juicy and tender.
