Nice atmosphere inside and out. Rainy outside so we were indoors. Excellent, very friendly service. Small but decent beer selection. For my wife's Chicken Parmesan they were willing to change the pasta to grits - and that was very nice of them. Grits are similar to polenta- which is how she makes hers. She liked her dish. I had the three fish combo - and it was not very good. I believe a small piece of flounder (which was overcooked), three or four shrimp (which were overcooked as well), and a crab cake - which was decent but kind of mushy, but the moisture helped me to eat the other overcooked fish so ended up being a positive. Had key lime pie for dessert- which was okay but not great in my opinion. We did not complain or ask them to redo the fish. Service and ambiance, plus them working with my wife on her dish pushed them to a 4-star. My dish by itself was probably 3 star at best but other elements of the experience were very nice. We would go back again but would be hesitant to order items like fish that are easy to overcook. read more

O.C. Whites looked very nice from the outside, and a permanently closed restaurant nearby had signs recommending it so after perusing the menu, me and my girlfriend decided to give it a try. The restaurant was completely empty for lunch. The staff there, while very attentive and friendly to us, clearly had nothing else to do and just stood around the bar talking VERY loudly about sports or whatnot. Our waitress was very nice, we both ordered Fish and Chips made with different meat and it was.... okay. The breading was nothing special, though with the fish I think it was fine. The fries were pretty decent. I could see O.C Whites being a fantastic spot if it tightened up its menu a bit and maybe lowered prices a bit. 'Til next time! read more

Sure to being 4th of July of course there was a 30-40 min wait but no big deal. Casual setting with love music outside while you wait. It was nice soothing sounds too I really liked that. After being seated the food came quickly which was unexpected with the amount of people dining inside and outside. The ribs didn't disappoint but the hushpuppies were just ok. I hadn't had a drink in quite a while and the key lime martini was not it. Maybe it's just my taste buds have changed since being sick or the fact it didn't taste like key lime which I love, I had to return it. There was no problem having them take it back which I appreciated and I got the white sangría instead and that was much better. Our server Hanna was great, she had a fun personality. read more

Had an amazing meal here last night. We sat outside and they had live music which was amazing. The seating outside had fans that were very nice as well. The service was great. We got our cocktails fast and they were delicious and well poured. Our waitress's christina (2 of them) were very kind and attentive. My husband loved his fish tacos and I got the special of the day which was to die for. read more

I stopped into OC White's around 6:30pm on a Sunday to order the Caribbean salad and bruschetta to go and sat at the bar with a water while I waited. The female bartender was really friendly and kind. My food was ready in under five minutes, which was such a nice surprise after a long day. I'm usually really basic about salad dressing and was a little unsure about the honey lime dressing with all the toppings, but I took the plunge and it ended up being really good and went perfectly with the fruit and nuts. The Caribbean salad was super fresh and delicious (even when I had the second half the next night!), and the bruschetta was great too. Very crunchy! They have a free parking lot for restaurant customers, which makes it an easy choice in busy St. Augustine. I'd definitely order from here again. read more

We had been here 9 months ago and sat outside on their shady patio and enjoyed it. However, we had never seen the inside of the restaurant. Today we decided to return for lunch and sit inside because it was way too hot to sit outside again. We arrived fifteen minutes before they officially opened but the parking lot attendant was nice enough to let us park and escorted us inside the restaurant. They kindly seated us anyway and our friendly server, Julian, got us some waters. The menu has plenty of good sounding appetizers, salads, sandwiches and entrees. They also had three lunch specials. I went with the shrimp melt sandwich and it was absolutely delicious. It came on a soft hoagie roll and had shrimp, garlic, tomatoes, arugula, and melted provolone cheese. A side of seasoned fries was also included. My husband had the fresh catch sandwich. His choices of fish were Mahi, salmon, flounder or cod. He chose the blackened flounder and really enjoyed it. My mother in law had fish and chips. She also got to choose between Mahi, salmon, cod or flounder. She chose the cod and said it was very fresh. The restaurant has both upstairs and downstairs dining, as well as an upstairs outside balcony. I have a feeling we will be back again. read more

Very nice atmospheres and a warm welcome, with an offer sit outside during the week. Server was prompt and familiar with the days specials and didn't waste any time taking our orders. Started with a standard Fried Calamari, that was served at a good temp and plentiful. Unfortunately it was a bit bland. Next was a nice cup of New England Clam Chowder, that was very flavorful but slightly thicker than I prefer. Fried Flounder Sandwich was good flaky and not greasy, served with seasoned French Fries, which are a big NO in my book. I want to taste the potato and not a mix seasoning profile. Great ambiance and setting with great service well priced for good food. read more

It was another very busy weekend in Saint Augustine when we were all looking for a place to eat dinner. Being a group of seven it's hard to accommodate well and OC White's did it with grace and ease. We were seated right away. Our server was very attentive and amazing. We started out by ordering a drink, and they were very good. What we liked most is that they had a selection of a specialty drinks, which made our visit unique. They were all scrumptious. What was even better was our dinner. The fish tacos were very, very good. The fish was tender, and it was not covered with a bunch of batter. It was flaky well cooked and paired well with the mango salsa, served on top. The crabcakes and the clam chowder were all delicious. This is a place that I will revisit every time I come to Saint Augustine because they made seating easy. . . Something that is hard to find in this area. Oh, and they had a live guitar and singer outside, which was a super nice touch. read more

Food was delicious. Quiet while we were there which is nice so you can talk to your company. Server was pretty good.

Conch fritters are delicious good size very tasty! We also had the fish and chips with Mahi - wow tasted great. We had a lovely server Barbie. She was attentive and kind. Ambience is both fun, you can watch sports or sit outside and enjoy the beautiful bay view. Would definitely recommend and return. read more

We were looking for a spot to grab some seafood and saw this in the distance so decided to try it. Now being in St Augustine the prices are not going to be cheap and they weren't here. The portions were very small too unfortunately. I will say though that everything tasted fresh ! My mom and I split the fish and chips and the Cod fish was amazing . The fries were really good too. We ended up getting green colored mimosas which was a fun touch to our lunch. We sat outside and it was a beautiful day and the outside seating is very pretty . Tons of tables and greenery. Our server was attentive and nice. read more

We had a table of 4 on a Friday night and was sat right away. They brought us up to the top patio to overlook the bay. They had live music playing and was giving us the beach vibes. The Pina colada was delicious and everyone else orders were flavorful and hit the spot. Great location to go shopping after to walk off dinner! read more

Came here for dinner while visiting the area. The location is fantastic, spacious outdoor patio with live music and plenty of seating indoor in the two story restaurant. The parking validation they offers is also hard to come by for the area. Even though they were very busy, our wait was only 15 mins, which was very reasonable compared to other near by spots. Our server was friendly. I ordered the fish&chips with catch of the day, mahi mahi. The fish was tender, and clearly freshly made. Over all I'd definitely recommend this place! read more

We enjoyed the live music as we waited for a table. It was really busy, but after about 40 minutes we were seated. The seafood here was delicious. For the appetizer, we ordered the bruschetta, which was a little heavy on the balsamic, but was otherwise good. For dinner we ate the bronzed salmon, which was basically a Cajun crusted salmon. We loved the flavor and the slight spice at the end. We also got the fish and chips, which were light and flaky. The atmosphere itself was lovely and inviting. We would have liked to be upstairs, but maybe that's just for bigger parties. Either way, on a busy Saturday, this was a great option! read more

Great lunch with a cool outdoor patio vibe. My initial disclosure is that I never made it inside the restaurant, since the covered patio looks so beautiful, we just sat out there. We were quickly approached by our server, Brenda who brought over some freshly made iced tea. She was super friendly. I had the shrimp melt sandwich which was something I had never seen before and it tasted excellent. The sweet potato fries were perfectly prepared even with no additional sauce, ketchup, etc. needed. It was a great place to spend a weekday afternoon for about an hour, get a great meal, and brend even gave us an iced tea cup to go. Pricing for the two of us averaged about $30 per person including tip, tax and drinks. I would certainly go back, next time maybe I'll get to see what the inside looks like - the outdoor patio is beautiful and comfortable. read more

I found this to be a thoroughly enjoyable place to get dinner! Everything was tasty and fresh, service was fast, and our server Lauren was very friendly with great recommendations and a considerate touch. With the exception of the calamari and white sangria, everything we had was a specia/not on the regular menul, but I feel confident saying taking a shot with them. Live music and ambience on the patio make this a fantastic choice in downtown to grab a bite for dinner! read more

The food was subpar. The crabcakes were disguising. It was soft and mushy and not edible the mashed potatoes were gray, and the mahi was dry. I think the only way they have customers is because they are tourist who have never been there. They have a nice location. I am Pretty sure they would not have repeat customers read more

I have been to O.C. White's more than 10 times over the past five years. The food has usually been very good, and the service has ranged from acceptable to good. Unfortunately, my visit on July 3 was a completely different experience. We had a party of six and arrived in the middle of the afternoon. The restaurant was not crowded, and we were greeted promptly. Our drinks arrived about 10 minutes later, and the appetizers my friends ordered were delivered quickly by a food runner. The appetizers were fresh and tasted great. We placed our entrée orders shortly after, and that's when things went downhill. Five of the six meals came out correctly, but my order was completely wrong, not just the entrée, but the sides as well. Mistakes happen, so I wasn't upset when it was sent back to be corrected. After waiting 15 minutes, there was still no sign of my meal. At the 25-minute mark, everyone else at the table had finished eating and their plates had already been cleared. Our server, Amanda, finally came over and simply said there was one more ticket ahead of mine. There was no apology, no explanation, and no effort from a manager to address the situation. The lack of concern came across as if my experience simply didn't matter. At that point, I canceled my meal. Even when the bill was presented, there was still no apology from the server or a visit from a manager. A sincere apology and some acknowledgment of the mistake could have gone a long way, but neither happened. Unfortunately, the complete lack of customer service overshadowed what had started as a good meal and left me and 5 other people very disappointed. read more

Apparently we visited St Augustine during hell week (as the locals called it) and I understand why. There were so many people in the area that finding a place to eat was insane. We put our name on a list around 7pm and hovered around the bar until someone left to snag a seat in 30 minutes. Despite how busy the place was, the staff was excellent. One person came outside and offered some water bowls to a couple with three dogs and a long wait. Our interaction was mostly with the bartenders and they were great. They were taking orders from all directions, got them correct, and were still chatty and welcoming. Food was good. I chose the fried shrimp. A bit too much batter but it was served nice and hot and the cocktail sauce was good. Fries were crispy. There was both indoor and outdoor seating. They had a very nice patio overlooking the water. It was nice to get a couple blocks off downtown for a little quieter atmosphere. read more

Ohh what can I say about O.C White other than that they are Amazing. My wife and I have been coming here for years and love the place and the service. This time around with our toddler and new born was a bit different but we got to try the outdoor patio and even tho it was chilly they had heaters on so that worked out. They have live music playing and it wasn't that loud that we had to move or anything , and it was great music I had an Old Fashioned and it was great , as well as the St Augustine sangria, can't go wrong with white or red , both are amazing. We ordered a kids pasta with chicken and were not impressed as it barely had marinara on it so you are basically paying $15 for plain pasta with chicken. The blue crab cake as an appetizer was outstanding but it's just one cake and not two, hint.... Hahaha Shrimp and Grits for me and Lemon Rosemary chicken for the wifey both were amazing. Side note... while they can sit you and the little kids upstairs, you have to either leave the stroller downstairs or get ready to fold it and move it upstairs where is really tight, so the outside patio is your best option. read more

The place is pretty, inviting and cozy. Our waitress Cat was terrific. The ambiance is great, but unfortunately we were not impressed with the food or drinks. The old fashioned a were just basic and too pricey for what they were. I personally don't like having a maraschino cherry in an old fashioned. The appetizer was cold and lacking flavor. The chips tasted as if they were poured out of a bag. The price for the appetizer was high as well. Not a place we would go back to. read more

OC White's in historic St. Augustine offers an enchanting dining experience in the historic Worth House, dating back to 1790. The menu showcases the best of coastal flavors, with dishes like homemade crab cakes, fresh seasonal fish, lobster, crab legs, choice steaks, and comforting chowder. Daily chef's specials and a variety of pasta and sauté options ensure there's something for every taste. The outdoor seating is a must-try, especially in summer, where you can enjoy your meal under a fragrant canopy of jasmine flowers. OC White's beautifully combines historic charm with fresh, flavorful seafood and classic dishes, making it an unforgettable destination in St. Augustine. The service is friendly and warm. The inside decor needs to be revamped. read more

We've lived in St Aug for 5+ years. This OC's was one of the first places we went and it was not a good experience. 5 years later we thought we'd give them another chance. Never again. The patio was half full but they refused to sit us outside. It was overcast so we weren't too discouraged. They sat us upstairs at 728P on a Friday. We didn't get our entrees until 832P. Waiting over an hour for entrees when didn't order appetizers and the dining room is half empty is absurd. If we weren't so hungry we would have got up and left around 8P. read more

Good service. Nice location and vibe , but that's it. $28 for 2 small fish and about 12 fries with the fish and chips. Lemon chicken $18 for a tiny 4oz breast. Kids grilled chicken $8 for about a 4oz pre grilled (and probably microwaved) with side of canned mandarin oranges. Calamari app was ok, $19 fish Tacos were blah... $105 for 4 people a bit much for cafeteria level food. read more
