    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
    Stacy S.

    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

    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.

They also have a wide variety of different wines, so we were able to pick out the perfect one (with the help of our knowledgeable server) It's expensive, so bring your wallet. Also, make reservations or you might not get in. Worth every penny!

The food is solid but hasn't blown me away, my husband also agreed. The two dinners both had slow service and it took a while to get our food and drinks. Lots of waiting for a semi pricy meal and experience. The last cocktail I ordered that was an old fashioned on their speciality list was just too sweet and a little funky. I got a glass of wine next and that was perfectly fine. With so many places to eat in STA, this just isn't my favorite. Everyone is friendly and it's a pretty place, but better for a rooftop drink in my opinion.

What should have been a pleasant dining experience turned into an extremely stressful and disappointing situation due to the unprofessional conduct of the manager on duty, Ms. Kale. Upon arrival, my family and I were instructed to wait outside, which we did patiently for nearly an hour. Despite this long wait, we were then seated in an extremely crowded area with no regard for comfort, space, or safety. This lack of organization created significant stress for us, especially given my current recovery from a broken femur and hip. Additionally, my elderly mother, who flew from another country to visit us, and my four children -- including one with special needs -- were placed in an environment that was unnecessarily overwhelming and preventable with proper management. What made the situation far worse, however, was the behavior of Ms. Kale. When we voiced our concerns politely, she responded with unacceptable rudeness. Instead of offering a professional apology or attempting to correct the situation, she dismissed our concerns and even laughed in our faces. This reaction was not only unprofessional but deeply disrespectful. It reflected a complete lack of leadership, empathy, and customer-care standards. It is clear that this location is focused on bringing in as many guests as possible for profit, yet management is failing to properly coordinate seating, resulting in overcrowding and poor guest experiences. A manager's role is to ensure smooth operations and address issues respectfully -- something that was clearly lacking under Ms. Kale's supervision. I hope that this complaint is taken seriously, as no family should be treated in this manner. I request that appropriate action be taken to address the behavior of the manager and to improve the overall management practices at this location. Thank you for your attention. I look forward to you seeing seeing to help improvements implemented so that other guests do not experience what we did.

Our server was knowledgeable, friendly and really elevated the entire experience. Our food was beyond delectable. Highly recommend the Escargot and Steak Tartare. The best I've ever had. We sat on the beautiful wraparound porch. I was delighted that it was a gorgeous December day and enjoyed the warmth of that Florida sunshine. I did peak inside on my way to the spotless restrooms and made note that the interior dining area is stunning as well. I will always opt to sit outside but on a day when the weather is uncooperative I would be just as happy sitting inside this historical gem. I ended my meal with a chocolate croissant that I regrettably did not snap a picture of. That was the perfect ending to this unforgettable meal. I reserve my 5 star ratings for restaurants like this for a reason. So that the great restaurants can shine above the good. Can't wait to go back!

We started with the Chili-Lime Shrimp, and that dish alone set the bar high. The shrimp were perfectly cooked and coated in a spicy chili-lime garlic sauce that had just the right kick. The miso butter emulsion and sweet soy tied everything together with a rich, slightly sweet finish. The Poke Tuna was fresh and vibrant--sashimi-grade ahi tossed in a cashew-citrus ponzu with red onion, cucumber, and seaweed salad. The fried wontons added a nice crunch that balanced the dish beautifully. The Mediterranean Pizza was a pleasant surprise. The combination of green olives, spinach, roasted red peppers, artichoke hearts, goat cheese, and garlic worked really well together on a crisp crust, giving you a savory bite with a hint of tang. The Surf & Turf Fried Rice brought bold flavors to the table. Tender beef tips and shrimp sauteed in a spicy chili glaze over vegetable fried rice, finished with fried garlic, chili oil, miso butter, and sweet soy--it was rich, flavorful, and very satisfying. The Beef Tenderloin was cooked just right--tender and juicy--paired with creamy mashed potatoes, seasonal vegetables, and a decadent truffle sauce that elevated the whole dish. Beyond the food, the service truly stands out--warm, friendly, and genuinely welcoming, making you feel taken care of throughout the entire meal. They also offer an excellent selection of wines, beers, and spirits, along with a solid dessert lineup that's worth saving room for. To top it all off, there's plenty of parking available, which is always a bonus in a busy dining area. Overall, this place nails the balance between great food, inviting service, and a fun, energetic atmosphere. Definitely a spot you'll want to revisit.
