    Chipotle beer cheese flatbread.

    Wow! The food is incredible. Their signature burger is absolutely incredible and different. Steaks are great. Good flatbreads. Deserts looked incredible going by. Service was great. Food cake out pretty fast. Very unassuming ambiance.

    "Good Vibes, great bites!"
    Eva-Tanja C.

    Our dinner at The Press was a delicious blend of comfort food and classic favorites. We started with the lightly breaded calamari, which was crisp on the outside, tender inside, and perfectly seasoned. The breading was light enough to let the fresh flavor of the calamari shine, and the grilled pineapple added just the right touch. For the main course, my husband went with The Conquistadore Burger--juicy, well-seasoned, and stacked with bold toppings that created a rich, satisfying bite every time - this burger won best of St Augustine. I ordered the Steakhouse Burger, which was equally impressive, boasting a smoky, savory flavor that paired perfectly with its hearty toppings. Both burgers were served on house made buns and came with one side. Service was prompt and friendly, and the relaxed atmosphere made it easy to enjoy the evening. By the time we left, we were already talking about what we'd try on our next visit. Rating: -- A great spot for a casual meal with food worth coming back for. Food: 5/5 | Service: 5/5 | Atmosphere: 5/5

    Steakhouse Burger and the Conquestidor. Burger!!!

    From the delicious pretzel and beer cheese and homemade fried pickles For starters - then the burgers were amazing!!!! To top it almond the white chocolate bread pudding was AMAZING! And all served by our wonderful waitress Audrey! Great job! We will be back for sure!!!

    I didn't order this burger but had to take a photo!! Staff said it's called the vanquisher.

    We will find any reason to drive 95 miles to St Augustine just to be able to grab a burger here. Lunch or dinner, it's all good! And it's not all burgers... check out the menu there something for everyone. It's a small establishment with amazing staff & fast chefs. Seating is mainly inside with a few casual tables outside the front entrance. Establishment is in a plaza with shared parking.

    Seafood pot pie

    If I could give it more stars I would. This place hands down rocked my world! I had the filet mignon, with grilled veggies and the most amazing shrimp and lobster cream sauce and my husband had seafood pot pie. I can't wait to come back to this little gem.

    Mushrooms n onions on the side

    Traveling, he drove past it while I ck on yelp,looked good so we turned around. Got there around 5, not a big place. Sam the bartender was welcoming and made my man happy with a cold Amstel Light, his fav! I got the chicken corn chowder, nice n hot with a kick to it. Prime rib sandwich was good, could have used more meat. He enjoyed the salad that came with it and the mushrooms (for me ) n onions on the side. When we were leaving the place was filling up. Definitely would go back, pictures do not do them justice.

    Prime Rib Sandwich
    Christine G.

    The Press is a cozy spot in a strip mall. We had to make reservations for this small place, otherwise we would not have been seated. Food was good. Portions were large and the service was good. We were interested in trying the large pretzel with the cheese sauce. So yummy. For entrees we had the goat cheese and spinach flatbread, the el Cuban, the Cabernet mushroom and Swiss burger, the prime rib sandwich and side salad. The burger was really good, but I don't care for Swiss cheese. It seems you can't ask for substitutions here. However, I did like it regardless. The day we dined had a dessert special of Key Lime Pie for $5, so look for that on Thursday nights, if available. The portions were good but overall I thought the prices were fair considering the quality of ingredients. Everything was very fresh and well prepared. We had a really good experience here, but you must make a reservation if you want to sit in dining area.

    The small dining room was packed, and dinners were patiently waiting inside and outside. That was the indicator of excellent cuisine. This chef driven, no kidding tasty food and extremely friendly place won our heart last night. We drove from Orlando to the Nights of Lights in St. Augustine, and decided to have dinner at The Press. The Open Table reservation at 7 truly helped. We walked in at 7 and Brystol asked me, "Are you Tony?" Then she sat us right away. The folks in the queue was impressed. Brystol was also our server. We recommended the Sangria, so we took one red and one white. They only have beers, wines, and Sangria. We started with the Ginger Calamari, which was delicious and fresh. I also tried the House Onion Soup, which I really liked the way it was -- not so much of cheese and I could taste the sweetness of the onion and other ingridients. We ordered the 2 special dishes of the evening, both with a touch of New Orleans flavors. I had the steak and shrimp, with medium heat; my guest had the fish and shrimp. The entree portions were huge, but well garnished. My medium steak was perfect. I loved the way the greenbeans were cooked, still green and crunchy. Each main course came with a side salad with a dressing of choice. No room for desserts after such a great meal. I couldn't get the name of the young man who expedited the food, but he made the dining experience special, with nice smiles and prompt attention. I wish this place can grow and perhaps expend its dining room by taking over the spot next door. They deserve the higher ranking though not to be right at the historic corridor. I sincerely thanked the culinary team and Brystol for such a great dining experience. We will return soon.

We started with the Fried Green Tomatoes, made vegan, and served with herbed ricotta and basil aioli on the side. We both ordered the Black Bean Sweet Potato Burger, one vegetarian with pimento cheese, and one vegan. Everything was prepared and served with care--the servers identified each dish as it came out, noting whether it was vegan, which is always appreciated. This was by far the best meal we had on this trip to Florida--every single bite of food at Floridian was an explosion of flavor. We saw a vegan coconut cake in the display but were too full to try it. Maybe next time!

It is basically a hotel breakfast buffet in TRYP hotel (which looked really nice). The restaurant area is open to the public. We were able to park, walk in, and eat breakfast without any issues or questions. The buffet is a little on the smaller side, but it has more than everything you need. It was absolutely perfect for us even though we choose to avoid 80% of the available options. From what I remember, the buffet had scrambled eggs, cheese omelets, bacon, sausage links, sausage patties, bagels, muffins, cereal, milk, fruit, yogurt, water bottles, and much more. The fruit was individually packaged and located in a "take what you want" fridge with the yogurt, water, and I think there were some other things in there. We were also offered coffee. We accepted and were thrilled when this amazing Italian coffee arrived (Lavazza). It was some of the best coffee I have had in a long time. The service was also impeccable. We had two incredibly nice ladies waiting on us. They kept our coffee full, encouraged us to eat more, offered to bring us juice, kept the table clear, told us to take water bottles with us on our adventures, and more. They were so sweet. For $10 each, we left with full and happy bellies and water bottles for our trip. We will definitely be back the next time we are in town.

Meanwhile, every table was full and they were people like us waiting. She sat there for an additional 20 minutes while we waited. Yet the staff refused to chase her off, mostly because they were worried about her giving them a bad review.

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.

I'm not sure if they landed on the orange garnish that got put in our drinks or what, but it was not ideal. We swapped for another beverage and didn't have an issue. The other issue was the food itself. Thankfully everything came out really hot and pretty fast, but it was just super mediocre. The shepherd's pie was a bit lackluster and my husband said it was not seasoned/kind of tasteless. I'm sure it's just because of the busyness, but still disappointing. The party outside seemed super fun and everyone who was just drinking and standing for the music were happy. I would give it another chance, but absolutely not on a holiday adventure.
