My significant other found this little gem on the way to see the capybara's next door after reading…read moreall the crazy good reviews for Buena Onda Café. Seeing a 4.9 rating honestly made me pretty skeptical becuase usually places that hyped never live up to it. But wow... this one actually did. I'm pretty sure my 5 stars are gonna help push this place to a full 5.0 The design itself is cute but not exactly perfection, and the checkout line process could definetly be smoother during busy times. BUT the food... thats where this place absolutley shines. The Arepas Special with the corn pancakes filled with eggs, avocado and tomatoes was an absolute BEAST. Fresh, flavorful and super satisfying. Then the Avocado Toast with the sweet pumkin pieces just blew the rest of our taste buds out the window. Such a weird combo on paper but somehow worked sooo good. And finishing it all with a Cafe con Leche and a blueberry scone just put the final dot on this breakfast experiance. It honestly didnt feel like "just breakfast" it felt like an experiance you remember later. Big shoutout to Huhny for a human she is! She absolutley knocked it outta the ballpark with recommendations, brought everything fast to the table, and you could really feel the passion and positive energy she delivered Thank you team, we'll 100% be back next time we visit your cool town St. Augustine.

The staff were super helpful since it was our first time, explaining the menu, options and provided recommendations. I ordered a vanilla latte iced w/ almond milk and the mushroom tostadas (which was a special) The vanilla latte was very good, creamy/ smooth vanilla taste. The mushroom tostadas were probably the best tostadas i've ever had. They were so flavorful and fresh I ate my whole plate. Definitely a must try if you're from or in the area.

We brought a group of very…read moreexcited Girl Scouts for our end-of-year trip, and it was such a fun and memorable experience for all of the girls. A huge shoutout to our tour guide, Daven, who was incredibly patient with our energetic group and made the experience even better. He was so knowledgeable and shared tons of fun facts about the capybaras that kept the girls engaged the entire time. You can tell he truly enjoys what he does! The capybaras were adorable, sweet, and such a unique experience. We're already talking about coming back to try some of the other animal café experiences they offer. Highly recommend!

I guess that's why we sign the waivers! With that said, my kids loved this place. It was nice to hear their giggles and see my 5-year-old son basically get tackled by a caybara trying to get his lettuce. There are other animals in the experience, including a floppy ear bunny, a loud parrot (that bites so don't touch!) and a few other animals. They are great in keeping the kids distracted before the main capybara event. We had a really fun time.

I would highly recommend the Lavender latte and the Banana chai latte. For entrees the Joburg Jam was amazing and the avocado sampler plate was tasty, too.

And it was DELICIOUS. The restaurant was a bit busy while we were there, but it didn't take away from our experience. The staff were all amazing and we'd love to go back when we visit St. Augustine!

Both omelettes were very large and came with choices, I got grits, Mel got home fries. The omelettes were great. Mine had plenty of chicken, an adequate portion of jarred salsa, and plenty of peppers and onions. I'd have liked to have seen tomatoes included. I'm sure I could get that on request. Mel's omelette was loaded with mushrooms, and while I didn't try it, she reported that it was quite good. The grits and home fries were good. Overall, the food was a solid 3, the service tacked on the other star. Gail was great. She was very attentive and offered all the right things at the right times. The 20oz juice portion is a welcome option in a world of small juice pours, but it clocks in at $6. Total ticket, including a 16oz OJ and a coffee, was $49. Maybe I'm just giving boomer vibes, but that's steep for breakfast. The portion sizes were sufficient for both of us to have another small meal off each order. In summary, I recommend this place for a breakfast/brunch (they had a small menu of alcoholic drinks for the brunchers), in spite of the sticker price. I'll be back.

View - only thing good about this place, but you can eat next door for the same view or just walk around. Barely any cheese on the breakfast sandwiches. Very basic! As for the staff......our waitress was good and helpful. Then, about 5 min before we were done, I received a phone call from my daughter and grandson because they got a new kitty. Not something you just talk over the phone about, needed FaceTime! The rudest person I believe I have ever met in 50 years of life, poked her head around the corner and very loudly stated she did NOT want to hear my conversation, and to turn my call down or get off. There was only 1 other customer there, on the other side of the room, we couldn't even see from our seats due to a wall. This was JUST an employee. This woman represented the owner, her sister! We immediately got up, without finishing, walked to the front where I said that was the rudest experience I had ever had. She continued with, "no what you are doing is rude!" I said answering a call from my daughter is NOT rude! Treating a customer this way is and I walked out. My husband went to pay, and asked her if she was the owner. She said no, my sister is. To which he replied, "then I don't want to hear another word out of your mouth! Your opinion does not matter! She didn't like that at all. We paid and tipped our waitress but will NEVER return! I hope that her sister takes this very seriously! It is not ok to be that rude to your customers! I would fire anyone who talked to my customers that way. There is a way to handle things you don't like. She had zero empathy and her approach was unacceptable. Her clout, lacking lol!

Unbiased to the service the empanadas are repulsive, flavorless beef filling and a crust that's twice as thick as the meat. (2) empanadas and (1) off brand bottle of water $21.
