Excellent meal last night. The Surf and Turf with hanger steak, shrimp, tagliatelle pasta, tomatoes, onions...and the sauce...it was to die for! The Ceviche Lima was incredibly fresh and flavorful. We ended with the Sacred Valley Cacao dessert which is sweet, salty and oh so delicious. The service was excellent and the ambiance delightful. Highly recommend! read more

Wow... what an experience! This cute little place packs a BIG punch. From the moment we walked in, the staff was very welcoming and friendly. We had a reservation and they sat us right away. Reservations are usually required since they get full real quick. The server was kind and explained the menu and meal service to us. We started with specialty cocktails. Everything is hand made and fresh. You can taste the difference. We got some appetizers. Personally, my favorite was the yucca with the trio of dipping sauces. Each sauce was better than the last, and I wanted to continue eating each one long after it was done. The octopus was delicate and melted in your mouth. The flavor combos in the volcano dish were so wonderful. It was like chips and dip. I was most excited for my meal. The pesto pasta with the hanger steak. EVERY.THING.WAS.AMAZING in this dish. I was savoring each bite. Getting sad when I was reaching the end. The pesto was packed with flavor. Creamy and aromatic. The hanger steak?! Oh boy... perfectly cooked. Juicy. Melted in your mouth. I wanted a lot more of that. What a great piece of meat. I was reallllly looking forward to dessert. And it did not disappoint! I got the s'mores dessert. I love s'mores everything. And this was an elevated s'mores like I never had before. The presentation was WOW. The smore was in a bag that they lit on fire at the table. The fire charred the marshmallow on top perfectly. The Carmel on top of the delegate shortbeard was melt in your mouth. Those shortbeard cookies were incredible. Buttery and crumbly. Perfect. The strawberry compote to mix with it was fresh and bursting with flavor. All the flavors melding together to light your taste buds on fire! I would LOVE to return and try some more items. We had a wonderful experience! read more

Llama absolutely exceeded every expectation. I truly believe a great restaurant is about more than just incredible food--the people make all the difference. Our server, Kendall, and the entire team went above and beyond to create such a welcoming, memorable experience. Their hospitality, knowledge of the menu, and genuine enthusiasm elevated an already amazing meal. The food was phenomenal. We ended up ordering what felt like half the menu, including the lamb, hanger steak, pappardelle, pulpo, ceviche, grouper wrapped in banana leaf, and fried yuca, and every single dish was outstanding. The flavors were incredible, and the presentation was absolutely beautiful--every plate felt like a work of art. From the first course to the last bite, everything was thoughtfully prepared and executed perfectly. If you're looking for one of the best dining experiences in St. Augustine, Llama is absolutely worth the reservation. We'll definitely be back. read more

One word: wow! Finally I had the opportunity to try this restaurant on a date night. The place looks small from outside but actually has some room. Love the llamas and flowers decor. To be honest I'm not a very adventurous person and I was about to order my to go Peruvian plate, lomo saltado, but then we agreed with my husband that if he tried the heart beef then I will try the octopus that I've never have before. We share both appetizers. Presentation 5 stars. And wow! Both dishes were great!! Then we shared the lamb, the potatoes, the sauce, everything was delicious! And last but not least dessert. Service was great, we did get chips and Peruvian corn for the table as soon as we arrived. Also a complementary passion fruit shot with pisco. Definitely coming back to try more! read more

My husband made a dinner reservation at this wonderful restaurant for our wedding anniversary. It is a small but intimate place so it was perfect. The hostess seated us at a nice table by the front window and then brought over some complimentary plantain chips and roasted corn. The menu offers plenty of appetizers and about six entrees. I opted for the Mar Y Tierra. It was a spectacular surf and turf that included hanger steak, shrimp and tagliatelle pasta, along with tomatoes and onions. It was a delicious dish. My husband had the Patarashca. It was magically seasoned grouper wrapped in plantain leaves, cooked over hot coals and served with hearts of palm, yuca and plantains. A cup of passion fruit cilantro sauce also accompanied the dish. We were both too full for dessert but maybe next time. Service was good from Sergey. read more

Great experience at Llama! We stopped by on a Tuesday evening to celebrate a special occasion, since the reservations for this place do fill up quickly on weekends. We were quickly approached by our server, Sergey and he went over some of the specials and most popular items. I had the Patarashca which was a piece of halibut prepared in plantain leaves with a side of plantains, hearts of palm, and some fried yucca Hall with a sweet Peruvian sauce on the side. It was a wonderful meal, very tasty and filling. The dining room is small but well decorated in a Peruvian theme. Pricing averaged about $70 per person all in. This is a wonderful restaurant for special occasions, with excellent food and service. Parking was readily accessible on the side of the restaurant, to the rear of the restaurant, and even some street spaces out front. read more

My all time favorite peruvian spot in Florida. Very subtle, dimming, and welcoming environment. The area has expanded so it was a one room restaurant now it has branched out with more seating! The food is always so amazing and catches your tastebuds off guard! I came here again for my anniversary and it's quite literally my favorite restaurant to this day! read more

Simply, Amazing! Llama is among the best dining experiences I've ever had. I would give 6 stars if that were possible! The food was super tasty and beautifully presented. My ceviche Classico was fresh, fragrant, and delicious. Pro tip: get the hot peppers on the side. The service was great. Thanks, Alondra. The star of this evening was the immersive and authentic atmosphere. I felt like I could be hanging out at a cafe in Peru. I would not have been surprised to see a morochuco tie up his horse, and sidle in to enjoy some pisco and anticuchos at the bar! read more

I don't usually re-review places, but this spot more than deserves the extra credit. If you haven't been yet, do yourself a favor and book a resy--you'll see why it has all the hype. They've even added weekend brunch, which I cannot wait to try next visit! Pro tip: if you spot something new on the menu, go for it. I did, and every bite was a win. The Japanese-inspired ceviche was a knockout--layered with flavors and textures that I could honestly eat this dish every single day. dessert? Game changer. I've never been big on tres leches, but their white chocolate version completely won me over. Dare I say, I may have liked it even more than my former go-to, the s'mores on fire. Both are must-trys, so definitely save room for dessert! Remember there are only so many tables in the restaurant so if you are looking to book peak weekend time slots, please reserve well in advance. Llama's instagram page has all of their latest updates on brunch, new menu items, etc. I usually glance at their insta for a heads up of any new items I want to try. Keep an eye out for yourself. read more

We arrived at Llama on Anastasia Island during a storm at 4:55 p.m. and stood outside under the tin overhang while dirty water dripped on us. The lady at the bar and two waiters could clearly see us through the windows, yet instead of opening four minutes early, they simply watched us stand there in the rain. When they finally opened, we walked into an empty restaurant. We were literally the first customers there and the place was completely empty. We asked to be seated and were told by the hostess that reservations only were accepted. We then asked if we could at least sit at the bar and eat there, but she said the bar was only for people waiting and no food would be served there. What makes this even more frustrating is that when you drive by, there is nothing indicating reservations are required. We discovered the restaurant while passing through the area and were excited to try it. The flavors may be unique, but the attitude felt unnecessarily pretentious for a restaurant that should make more of an effort to accommodate walk ins, especially when the dining room was empty. read more

This place is like teleporting to Peru! From my first encounter via phone to confirm if a reservation was needed. I was welcomed to come in. They have expanded and are now a bit larger with a second dining room. So those who were reluctant to come, due to needing a reservation may be in luck, like us! We enjoyed a pitcher of one of their non alcoholic beverages, Chica Marada. Would definitely recommend! For appetizers, the Japanese Ceviche Nekkai was one of the best things Ive ever had. It was a fusion between Japan and Peruvian cuisine! On the 2nd appetizer, the Pulpo was prepared so well and very tender. I was in awe with the kalamata olive sauce for dipping! Never had I had such a delicious pairing! The beef hearts were presented in a beautiful presentation with a smoky street vendor elegant vibe! The real game changer here is the palate cleanser, before our main entrees arrived! The attention to detail was incredible and so delicious! For entrees, we were all wowed once again. Especially, the way our server, Gabriel explained every dish so well! He even elaborated the location of where the lamb comes from: New Zealand. We will definitely return! It was a memorable experience! I really want to try their seafood risotto dish or maybe their fusion stir fry! Everything is a culinary experience for the palate! read more

would give 10 stars if I could!! This place is amazing from the moment you walk in. This was our 3rd visit and each time the food has been nothing short of phenomenal. Great flavors, perfectly balanced and cooked. We love this date night spot to have different Peruvian dishes. Highly recommend. read more

Incredible experience for foodies! We did the 4 course chef special and every bite was as memorable as the next. The chef sourced ingredients all over the world. Kendall was so kind and gave us great recommendations for our vacation. They also offer wine pairing for the special but we did not alcoholic drinks that were just as tasty. The portions were large so we had plenty of leftovers. Keep in mind there are 10 ish tables so make sure to make a reservation. The cherry on top was the bidets in the bathroom. Make sure you come here on your last night of vacation otherwise everywhere else will disappoint ;) read more

We came to this restaurant on our last night in St Augustine, the restaurant is a small quaint feeling, with room enough room between tables. The host took us to our seat and gave us the menu, very cute soft leather looking book. Then we were greeted by the waitress which ask if we had been there before, our friends had already been and they had gotten a good experience. We started with the drinks, I had the maracuya mismosa which had a great tart taste mixed with mango and the crisp of the prosecco. On the table there was baked sweet potato crisp chips with chanca which are Peruvian corn like chips. We ordered the appetizers and the entree at the same time as they take all orders at the time since everything is prepared fresh. For the appetizers we had the Pulpo which is octopus it came in a form of a gazpacho thinly sliced, very tender that melted in your mouth along with a little purple sauce that kicked it up a notch to perfection . After our appetizers our waitress came by and drop off a delicious palate cleanser to sip on before your entree comes out. Note that each dish has a wonderful presentation. We ordered the Mar y Tierra (surf and turf). This is a tender hanger steak with shrimp, pasta, and fresh vegetables. We also ordered Ceviche Classico this is a traditional serving of Ceviche with sweet potatoes, crispy chulpe corn, giant Andean corn, Leche de Tigre, topped with purple onions. My husband got the Tallarines Verdes a hanger steak which was super tender and a pappardelle pasta in a pesto cream finished with their limo pepper soy glaze it was delicious. Reservations are highly recommended. Pricing is a bit higher than normal but the overall experience is worth it. This is a must try if you are ever in St. Augustine. read more

I had a wonderful experience. We arrived slightly early for our reservation and got to wait at the bar and order a drink. I got the Passion Mimosa, it was a very balanced and elevated version of a passion fruit mimosa that I really enjoyed. When we sat we were given a nice snack of roasted Peruvian nuts of some sort and plantains. Gabriel, our server, recommended the Ceviche Lima. It was really fun hearing the story behind the dish and it was incredibley fresh, I personally loved the sweet potato in this dish as well as the slight heat from the peppers. Before our entrees, a small pour of their sangria was given to us as a pallet cleanser, which was a nice touch. I ordered the Tallarines Verdes with the Pork Belly and it was one of my favorite dishes in a long time, the best pork belly i've ever personally had. I enjoyed my dish with a glass of their delicious tempranillo. My boyfriend got the Mar Y Tierra without shrimp (allergy), and the chef subbed in an extra piece of hangar steak which was delicious as well. We then went with the S'mores dessert as our finisher and it had a big flame! The dessert itself was good but simple for my taste, should've went with Gabriel's recommendation to try the tres leches! Overall had a great experience from staff, to ambiance, to the food. Definitely recommend as my favorite spot in St. Augustine. read more

Outstanding We did the four course dinner offering with the wine pairing. Gabriel, our server who guided us through the meal and wines he was amazing and the service was exceptional. We went with each of the two choices so instead of a four course meal it turned into an 8 course meal. All the food was delicious but we have two items to highlight One was the beef heart appetizer. Served street food style so just use your hands and enjoy. The heart tasted so good tender perfect marinaded and cooked The second was the hanger steak and shrimp and pasta. I know I would not ever have ordered this if I saw it on the menu. I am now a convert The steak was delicious the shrimp was cooked to perfection and the pasta and sauce completely complemented this meal. Dessert was crazy good. You will need reservations. I repeat you will need a reservation read more

Date night on Anastasia Island, enjoying Peruvian Cuisine at Llama feels like you are magically transported to a mini vacation to Peru.

We found out about this place when we had coffee at Marakuya by Llama Restaurant. We enjoyed their coffee and decided to celebrate my husband's birthday here. First of all, the place is small and I counted like maybe less than 10 tables. So, it is a must to make a reservation! We started off with Anticuchos. It's a marinated chargrilled beef heart. Oh my goodness, it tasted like steak! So tasty and tender! For the main entree I got the Mar Y Tierra which is their version of Lomo Saltado, It has stir-fry hangar steak, onions and tomatoes over a shrimp tagliatelle pasta. This was so delicious and great portion too! I also get to try my husband's rack of lamb, it was fantastic as well. And yes, you get what you paid for, which is a high quality food bursting with flavors, not to mention the exquisite presentation! Service was fast and our server was very knowledgeable and patiently answered all our questions. Worth every penny! read more

From start to finish this was one of the best dining experiences in St Augustine, and honestly probably one of the best hidden gems on the east coast. A small, intimate dining room made from what may have been a former store front, transports you to a vibrant and earthy space with llama pictures adorning all walls. There are limited tables - reservations ARE required and honestly you should look to book a minimum of four weeks out as there are limited spaces the closer to your day of interest. The food, service and space was phenomenal. We heard nothing but great things from locals as well (thanks Ice Plant & Old Coast bartenders!) and the food lived up to the hype. We split three entrees, two apps and had some phenomenal wine. I'm not sure how often they change specials, but they had a group over coconut rice on special and it was delicious. The lamb as well as the surf and turf were great, and one of my favorites were the beef hearts. So tender, and the sauce they serve along side was incredible. Don't miss the opportunity to dine at a place like this if you're in town or local and want to add what will become a staple to your rotation. read more

Llama Restaurant in St. Augustine promises an elevated Peruvian dining experience with a modern twist, and they certainly deliver on the food front. However, our overall experience was a mixed bag. I made our reservation several weeks in advance and was reminded of their no-show fee policy a day before our reservation. They emphasized punctuality, so we arrived 15 minutes early, only to find our table occupied. Understandable given the small space, but we weren't seated until 30 minutes after our reservation time. While we waited, they invited us to sit at the bar, but with a party of five, the standing room was inadequate. Once we were seated, the culinary journey began with some delicious appetizers. The standout was the Ceviche Nikkei, a Japanese-influenced salmon ceviche garnished with chalaca salad, quail eggs, avocado, scallions, chulpi corn, and Ponzu leche de tigre. It was a delightful mix of flavors and textures that set the tone for the rest of the meal. For dinner, the highlight was undoubtedly the Patarashca--grouper wrapped in plantain leaves, and cooked over hot coals. It was served with yucca, plantains, hearts of palm, sweet jungle peppers, and a passion fruit-cilantro sauce. The dish was a beautiful blend of flavors. I was also pleased to see an extensive vegetarian menu. I ordered the Hongos Bachiche, featuring chilled, chargrilled marinated king trumpet mushrooms with a creamy Parmesan leche de tigre, toasted Andean corn, and micro cilantro. Although the mushrooms were delightful, the sauce tasted too reminiscent of mac and cheese for my liking. For dessert, the restaurant kindly brought us a complimentary Luna Llena dessert to apologize for our long wait. This honey-lavender Tres Leches cake with butterfly snow pea ground and white-chocolate yeast ice cream was the star of the meal. It was well-balanced and not overly sweet--a perfect ending to our dinner. Despite the outstanding food, the overall experience was not great, due to the cramped, loud ambiance and slow service. With crowded tables and uncomfortable wooden chairs, I found myself waiting for the meal to end due to physical discomfort. They were also serving something that was smoked in the dining room (not sure what it was), so since it was a small space, I was constantly hit by the haze of the smoke). While Llama boasts well-executed Peruvian cuisine, I felt the experience was somewhat overhyped and a bit pricey for what was offered. Overall, Llama Restaurant is worth checking out if you're interested in trying some beautifully crafted Peruvian dishes. Just keep in mind that while the food may be excellent, the dining experience could use some refinement. read more

Dined here in April 2025, mid week, incredible experience! Smallish but posh restaurant, maybe a dozen tables. All the staff was friendly and very accommodating. The food. It was one of the best meals I have had in quite a while. Appetizers, we did the octopus, super tender and tasty, the other was some type of mushroom that was I think slightly better and more intriguing, really unusual combination of flavors that totally worked together. Main entree I did the surf and turf, it was unbelievably great. Would recommend it to anyone. Wife had a seafood risotto, and she loved hers also. Full disclosure, it was a rather expensive meal, however I'm always fine when the quality is this special. We don't live in the area , but it will be at the top of our list to visit next time we come back. read more

We came for my husband's birthday and it did not disappoint. We ordered a trio of appetizers and shared the lamb. They brought a complimentary house tres leche for his birthday and we ordered two additional deserts. Safe to say we left fat and happy! Notes about the location: it is TINY (only about ten tables) so I highly recommend making reservations well in advance. That being said, there was five staff seeing to the tables simultaneously so the service was amazing. It is not a kid-friendly restaurant. Also, to get to the bathroom you have to go outside, down some cobbled steps and back inside in the back so if you have mobility issues, it may be a challenge to get there. read more

It's a shame Michelin skips over Northeast Florida, because I think Llama would -- and should -- earn that recognition. We went as a party of three and were immediately greeted by staff, who were friendly and helpful (especially with suggestions) throughout the meal. The restaurant itself is very small and cozy; it almost feels like eating in someone's private dining room. The food was top notch. We had one vegetarian, one pescatarian, and one omnivore in our party and loved that there is an entire menu page dedicated to vegetarian options. We started with the hongos bachiche and the yucca fries. My only "complaint" with the hongos bachiche was that the leche de tigre was so good that we wanted something to scoop up the rest of it with after we ate the mushrooms. The yucca fries (and dipping sauces) were so delicious -- crisp on the outside, tender on the inside -- that we ended up getting a second order! I can't remember ever doing that in a restaurant. For entrees, my spouse enjoyed his cordero cusqueño (lamb dish), and I went with the patarashca (grouper) on the server's suggestion. The fish was great, and the accompanying sides paired with it well, especially the peppers. The other person in our party went with the mushroom quinotto, which was cooked absolutely perfectly. Everything here was plated beautifully, but the desserts are likely to catch your eye, especially as multiple involve fire. My spouse got the s'mores, which, of course, involves flames. The alfajore in it was perfect, and I personally loved the taste of the Parmesan ice cream, although my dining partners found it a bit too, well...Parmesan-y for their tastes. The rosemary in the compote was a delicious addition, too. My dessert -- the Sacred Valley -- may be my favorite thing of the night. It came with a eucalyptus "aroma" (hence the involvement of fire again) that helped balance the deep chocolate flavors, which were spectacular. Oh, and the drinks! I could drink a gallon of chicha morada if given the chance, and they make a delicious one here. They also brought an alcoholic "canapé" just before our entrees, which we liked. And we really appreciated that a server checked with us to make sure alcohol was OK BEFORE serving it; we're all fine with alcohol but thought it was considerate for those who may not be. The only "negative" -- and it's mild -- is that I actually would have liked a bit more time between dishes to really sit with the flavors after finishing a course. We had three courses in less than 1 hour and 10 minutes; while I wouldn't want it go the full two hours for that many courses, taking a little bit more time would match what I've experienced at restaurants of similar (great) quality. Overall, Llama feels like a love letter to Peruvian food and to its diners. I'd suggest it to anyone intrigued by the menu. read more

UPDATE: Marcel, the chef owner, responded to my initial review by asking "why is it so hard to be a good customer and human?" He ended his lovely retort by "hop[ing] [I] get better at that." Marcel, it's unfortunate that you took my review personally and resorted to personal attacks. There's no need to be salty (no pun intended). Our dining experience was mostly unremarkable until I scrolled through some older photos and realized I had never posted a review. My review could've mentioned how slow service was that day but I focused the content on the food itself, which was well below average. Mid-meal, we remember staring out the window at Mellow Mushroom, wondering why we hadn't just eaten there. That night, the meals did not warrant the high prices, and we did not have time to ask for the dishes to be prepared again. I have never asked for meals to be comped. I will ask, however, that you maintain your composure and professionalism on Yelp or more of your comments that violate content guidelines will be removed. read more
