This is a 4.5 review…read more Stopped in for the first time and enjoyed the restaurant. Something as simple as chips and salsa they bring out omg. They were mad fresh , they were so light and I loved the salsa. We both got enchiladas. I did chicken red sauce. She did combo green sauce. We both enjoyed our meal. The ambiance is nice. Our server was a sweetheart. You can definitely do worse then eating here

La Cocina has easily become one of my favorite go-to spots for Mexican food in the area. Every time…read moreI come here, the food is fresh, flavorful, and served up fast. You can really taste the love in the cooking--it's authentic, delicious, and super satisfying. The atmosphere is always welcoming and laid-back. The staff is consistently friendly and attentive--they make you feel right at home as soon as you walk in. I've tried a bunch of dishes here and I've never been disappointed, but the tacos will always be my favorite! If you're craving great Mexican food with great service, La Cocina is the place to go.

The wings were amazing, burgers were good, and the Nacho Fries were so good they were gone before I could take a picture. Waiter was an absolute beast, constant supply of Ice Cold Michelob's.

Treylor Park was such a fun find in St. Augustine!

It got pretty busy while we were there, but impressively, they were running with just one server--and he absolutely held it down. Despite the crowd, he stayed attentive, friendly, and kept everything moving smoothly, which really stood out. The menu is where things get especially interesting--unique, playful, and definitely not your standard fare. I tried the chicken apple pie sandwich, which was as unexpected as it sounds. It was fun, different, and surprisingly good! It is one of those dishes you won't find just anywhere. Husband loved his upscale bologna sandwich and the waffle fries were yummy! Overall, Treylor Park delivers on atmosphere and creativity. It's a great spot if you're looking for something a little outside the box with a fun, energetic vibe and memorable food.

Came here last year and had an amazing experience. Food was delicious, and we felt like we were…read morestepping into a family member's house to eat. Large portions, beautiful plates and silverware, and quaint, cozy ambiance in America's oldest city. Fast forward to Saturday the 14th, and I'm back again with family visiting from out of the country. The food was good, but the vibe was a bit different. Started with chips & salsa - good, but hardly any chips. We had 3/4 of a dish of salsa remaining after finishing the chips, and we were told that we would have to pay for a refill of chips. Very sad! We also ordered two taco platters, and three chicken quesadilla platters. Food was good, but the side portions (beans and rice) were very small, and served in tiny plastic cups. The plates and silverware were replaced with cardboard plates/trays and plastic cutlery. Although the food was good, the presentation was disappointing. Our waitress did a good job, so kudos to her! $120+ before a tip - a couple more chips would have been nice, and real plates and silver would have been amazing.....just saying.

I'm so impressed!! Going to FL from TX, have little…read moreexpectations on Mexican food but I was proven wrong because Mayita was amazing. I got the lamb birria bowl and it was so tender ans well seasoned. Their rice bowls are very much like chipotle style in components but fresher. Avocadoes are fresh and tasty and they have a bunch of different kinds of hot sauces and salsa on the side. Plaintain chips are good but I wish they were warm/hot. my friends like their beef burritos a lot too. Their ranking was lamb then beef, pork, chicken. Love that the menu is quite simple and easy to order. The staffs are so friendly and helpful and location is right across the Castillo de San Marcos fortress. Would def come back.

We had a pretty nice experience at Cantina Louie last night…read more Ambiance-- welcoming, fun & funky. Service-- our server was a bit too casual for my taste. She seemed like she was always eager to leave the table, but then go talk to other employees. I needed to get up from my table to look for hot sauce. It's a Mexican restaurant, so I thought it might be offered to me or easy to find. Food-- everything tasted great! Presentation was on point, and the chips and salsa were delicious as well. This is food for the Americanized palate, so there isn't a ton of heat anywhere, including the salsa. Drinks-- I had thr Spicy Watermelon Margarita and it was perfect! Great flavor, with the right amount of heat. And on Tuesdays its only $6.99! I should have ordered a double though!

Well I visited last night for a work event and I was pleasantly surprised. When we walked in and told them how many were in our party they barely blinked an eye and set us up at our table within 5 minutes. The waitress handled our party of 10+ smoothly and like a boss! The food was great, she got every order correct and our drinks were full the whole time we were there. I was so impressed and will definitely be back.

They have a fun drink menu and we tried the Green Bee, Luna Blu and It's in the Bag (it comes in an actual bag!) The drinks were all very good. We had chips and salsa and the tortillas were unique because they were whole tortillas. The food was very good. My friend had the surf and turf tacos and I had the mahi mahi tacos. Overall it was a nice spot to have lunch!

This place is the best and extremely consistent! This is a self-serve spot on A1A with 100% outdoor…read morepatio seating. There is a small covered area but it's mostly high top seats for a few people. But this is a neighborhood spot feels like you're eating in your backyard. The line for ordering can get extremely long during popular dinning times such as lunch and dinner. So be prepared to wait in line and wait for your dishes. I promise it is worth the wait. I recommend ordering chips and queso they do bring that out quickly and you can much while you wait for your main dishes. The UFO is my favorite dish on the menu and I crave it all the time. It's a flour tortilla that covers a hard taco stuffed with a protein (I love that blackened Mahi) and you can get it spicy (Baja style) or mild (the works). Absolutely the best thing here! If you're grabbing to go, check their website. Sometimes it's not open, but normally you can order ahead and pay online. So when you arrive you can pick up at the pick up window. Love this new addition. You cannot go wrong with anything, everything is amazing and honestly top contender for best taco on St Aug!

Oh, absolutely--if you've been searching for a way to make time stand still, this place has…read moremastered it. Sunday night, 9pm, and somehow it takes a full 40 minutes to produce...two burritos. Yes, two. Burritos. Just in case that needs to sink in. But don't worry, it gets better. The woman ahead of me only waited 45 minutes before discovering her order had simply ceased to exist. Lost ticket, no food, and a friendly invitation to wait even longer. So really, my 40-minute wait felt like I hit the express lane. And the grand finale? The food finally arrives--after nearly an hour of anticipation--and it's...painfully average. Not bad enough to be memorable, not good enough to justify the wait. Just perfectly mediocre. So if your goal is to waste time and lower your expectations simultaneously, this is your spot. Otherwise, maybe keep driving.

The arepas were perfectly crispy on the outside and creamy on the inside. The beans were simultaneously simple and complex. The sauce that comes with them was a perfect match.
