Food Quality & Taste: 5/5 The food is AMAZING! And always…read moreconsistent! My top favorite is the Mar y Tierra (the surf and Turf). Other standouts? The Tallarines Verdes. My favorite cocktail is the chichimosa. While the s'mores on fire is a really nice show, the base is composed of traditional alfajores cookies. The parmesan ice cream is an interesting and tasty addition, however. -Salmon Civiche (Ceviche Nikkei): 4/5 -Anticuchos: 3.5/5 -Surf and Turf (Mar y Tierra): 5/5 -Seafood Paella (Arroz con Mariscos): 5/5 -S'mores on Fire: 4/5 Service: 4/5 The service is really good. The servers are knowledgeable of the menu and able to answer many specific questions. At times the service felt a little rushed, which is why I gave it a 4/5, but nothing to deter me from going again. Atmosphere: 5/5 It is truly a beautiful restaurant. The décor, the lighting, the cultural aspects on the wall, the different sections of the restaurant...all really contribute to a vibrant and authentic experience. They've recently expanded as well, and I was blown away. Value: 4/5 This is truly an experience. The pricing can be a little pricey, but I believe it is worth it. This is probably not a casual night out for dinner, but a nice date night, a celebration, or an elevated experience. Opportunities for Learning: 5/5 The menu has many traditional Peruvian options with unique twists. The menu maintains many of the Spanish names for the dishes, so the menu will have you googling. I first learned about the anticuchos cooking style at Llama, and I continue to learn every time I go back.

Wow... what an experience! This cute little place packs a BIG punch. From the moment we walked in,…read morethe 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!

I had heard of Odd…read moreBirds from a friend who lives in the area and wanted to check out their speakeasy, Charlotte 33. We made a reservation for a Thursday evening and had a wonderful time. Our mixologist was named Talon; he was very friendly and knowledgeable. He started by asking us what we usually like to drink (spirits and flavor profiles). Once we gave him the information he needed, Talon proceeded to make us some amazing cocktails. I absolutely loved mine and could have drank them all night. I tried some of my friends' drinks and they were all excellent as well. We ordered several appetizers to share (guacamole, wings, empanadas, and mojo chicharrones), everything was very tasty. Talon came back over to ask us what options we'd like for our second round or drinks, so we all went with something different than the first order. Every cocktail he served us was really good and based on our individual tastes and preferences. I wish I lived in the area because I would go to Odd Birds regularly. The night we were there, they had a secret disco going on in the main dining area which sounded like a fun idea. I loved everything from the drinks, food, and interior decor. The Charlotte 33 Speakeasy area has a very pretty atmosphere as well.

We sat outside in the porch and enjoyed the view of St. amAugustine while also being sheltered from the sun. It took the team a while to bring out menus/greet our table - you might need to run inside and let them know you are outside. Overall, it was an incredible experience and we LOVED our drinks!

I had high hopes when I walked up the stairs to this beautiful top of us/wine bar. Unfortunately,…read moremy expectations were not met. The sangria was not impressive. Honestly, this drink did not even resemble sangria....It tasted like juice and did not even come in a wine glass. On top of that, I got the seared tuna tapas which was $35. I felt like this was worth about $18. It was incredibly overly seasoned with some salty blend, the quality of the fish was not impressive, and the salad that accompanied it was soggy. Then, I got left with a $60 bill even though everything was pretty bad.

I was looking on Yelp for a restaurant in St. Augustine to celebrate my birthday, and La Nouvelle…read morecaught my eye with such great reviews! I knew we had to go. I'm so glad I did. This French restaurant is located in a charming 3-story historic Jefferson house, once owned by Thomas Jefferson's great-granddaughter, Maria Jefferson Eppes Shine. The restaurant is on the first floor, with the entrance tucked away in the back. They have parking in the back. The second and third floors are home to a cozy Bed and Breakfast. We arrived right at 6 p.m. and were seated at a special table by the window. The restaurant isn't huge, but it has a lovely atmosphere. Renee was our server and treated us to a complimentary champagne for the occasion. She explained the menu and the specials. The Chefs Dinner Menu was fascinating, but unfortunately, I don't eat lamb. The menu changes frequently, so I'll definitely check it out again in the future and pair it with the optional Sommelier's wine pairing. There are so many wonderful choices, but I finally decided on the Bouillabaisse, remembering all the positive comments on Yelp. When my order arrived, it was presented on a large platter with a gorgeous display. It tasted as good as it looked, with the lobster eyes staring at me. It was a whole lobster, conveniently cut, which made it easier to eat. The combination of lobster, shrimp, mussels, and clams in a saffron-flavored broth was amazing. I'm so glad I chose it. My husband opted for the Steak au Poivre with Pomme Aligot. It's mashed potatoes with melted cheese, butter, and cream. The texture was a bit tougher than regular mashed potatoes, but still delicious. I tasted his filet, and it was so tender. He loves the poivre sauce on his steak. Renee recommended all the wines we picked. We started with the complimentary Frederic Chopin Brut Blanc de Blanc, and we really liked it, so we ordered more. For my meal, I had the Barbebelle Rosé, and my husband had the Peyrassol Merlot Syrah blend. Both wines complemented our meal perfectly. We did run into an issue with my Bouillabaisse, as it was a bit too salty. The manager, Parnos, came and apologized and had the chef prepare a new batch for me. They fixed the problem right away. I'm really impressed with the service, the amazing food, and the beautiful restaurant that's now La Nouvelle. They even gave me an amazing dessert with a birthday candle for free! It had a chocolate center, a crispy crust, whipped cream topping with chocolate morsels. La Nouvelle was outstanding in so many ways, making my birthday super special.

Nestled is a residential neighborhood, this historic house offers indoor and outdoor seating, with eclectic decor and welcoming atmosphere.

My wife's onion soup was good and her Steak Au Poivre was plentiful and tasty. The service was excellent and our server was friendly and extremely knowledgeable. I highly recommend La Nouvelle and I look forward to returning to try other dishes.

Upon walking in, I wasn't sure that we were going to have a good experience there honestly. It smelled pretty musky and felt very warm. We got there about an hour before trivia started and there were only a handful of people there. We sat at the bar and was greeted right away and ordered some drinks. After being in there a little bit, I guess you sort of get used to the smell - not sure if there were having issues that day or if it's always like that. We looked at the menu and we decided to order a couple of apps - and they were actually really good! We got the buffalo shrimp and the bacon wrapped scallops. The scallops were delicious! Once it got closer to trivia, the place started to fill up! So we decided to stay and play! The locals playing were very nice and we ended up having a good time overall.

Second it's not real balamic. Why is it on there when not on the menu description? There wasn't a ton so I used my napkin to get it off If you are going to charge those prices you should put the ingredients in the menu. $100+ bill for one person. I should have said "what is that brown stuff? Oh I'm allergic to it and had it redone. Not good. Maybe my last time there or next time ask. "Do you drizzle balsamic, wich is not real balsamic on the flatbread? You do? Why is it not on the menu? Leave that off. Ambiance is fine very French although I don't know if any staff are French.

We ordered Tacos Birria at 15.99, which were just okay, Tacos Asada 14.99 but they added 3.99 for rice and beans, which my daughter said had no flavor/spices and I had the Three count plate, which was rice/beans, chicken soft taco and hamburger soft taco. Everything was good except for the hamburger taco that had no flavor. I enjoyed my spicy margarita at $10.99. My son got three tacos and he enjoyed them. Service was good. A family of four with three drinks the total was $102 plus tip of 20%. Would I go back, probably not but it is close to the hotel and there are only two other places to eat up the road.
