    This place slaps. Super fun environment with cool decorations and an awesome outdoor bar area. Chips and guac were fresh and so good. Tacos are really really good and service was great. Highly recommend for a good time!

    I had the pancakes with strawberries and whipped cream, bacon on the side. Also had a painkiller drink. Everything was delicious. Waitress was super friendly and helpful and attentive. The view of the ocean was amazing, and really made breakfast a great experience.

    Cheers to great food, company and SERVICE!! #lawrence

    Lawrence was the absolute Best! He made our experience exactly what we needed while in town for a law conference. We are trying to come back just because his service was so amazing. Thank you for a great time and the laughs regarding the lemon drop .

    Great atmosphere over looking the ocean . The Shrimp Crab Florentine was spot on. Eggs cooked perfectly , stuffed with lots of shrimp. Perfect blend of crab and Hollandaise sauce . Everybody loved the cheese grits. Great staff. Btw the Bloody Mary's were excellent

    The service was unbelievably great. The staff were very friendly and our waitress was very polite. The food came out fast and was very good. The atmosphere was very nice with the outside view of the beach. It's definitely a very nice place to come and enjoy the view.

    Classic Shrimp n Grits

    After a nice early AM beach walk with friends, we dropped in here for a beverage and a bite of breakfast. Took advantage of the perfect weather and a table on the outdoor covered deck to enjoy the breeze and the ocean view. With plenty of great choices on the menu, we selected the huevos rancheros (wife) and a bowl of classic shrimp and grits (me). Both were expertly prepared with generous portions and super tasty. Big salute to the chef for masterful presentation and plating of both dishes. We first eat with our eyes, after all. I also enjoyed a refreshing and delightful Bloody Mary cocktail as a starter. Can't wait to come back!

    Spinach goat cheese omelette and cheesy grits
    Emma S.

    Such a cute little place! The location is awesome and the food is good as well. I recommend the potato side and spinach and goat cheese omelette! The service was alright, but the place was busy.

    Sitting at the rail with an amazing view.

    Fun breakfast spot overlooking the beach. Lots of good breakfast options. We had the crab Eggs Benedict, which were great. My daughter and her friend had the veggie omelette and the pancakes - both were excellent. They make some great Bloody Mary's as well - Jay the bartender is super nice. Good service overall though can get pretty busy for breakfast.

    Balcony view.

The cheese grits were also very good! I came alone and felt very comfortable, it is a chill vibe. Would come again!

    Long story short: Nice little breakfast spot with good service…read more We came right before 8am and were sat immediately. Our server was kind, but not overly friendly (I don't want a performance, you know?). And our food came out maybe 10 minutes after we ordered. We were early enough to order the Sunrise Special and the egg portions seemed surprisingly large! The grits were lovely. The bacon was not the best, it's thin cut (reminiscent of microwave bacon) and I prefer it to be thick. I ordered the eggs Benedict and really enjoyed it. The hollandaise could have had a touch more seasoning, but the texture was great. I actually preferred the Canadian bacon that came on it than the regular bacon that came with the Sunrise Special. It was perfectly salty and crisp. Oh! And it came with crab meat on it which was a special twist I didn't expect but really appreciated. The potatoes are cut into large chunks, but they are well seasoned and cooked nicely. I can't stand when a potato is undercooked, but this place didn't have that problem. And the cherry on top was the water. Florida locals may not be bothered by the ocean-y taste that comes with their drinking water, but for our family it is something that's hard to get past. We were pleasantly surprised to find that this water tasted as if it was filtered and the ice is that soft kind that's pleasant to chew. This might seem like a silly thing to add, but it really stood out to me and I'm grateful for it.

Our return to Fernandina Island and The Patio discovered the same great food and terrific service provided by Kimmi. Patio is by far one of island favorites.

Anyways, our server was pretty friendly, and we can't complain about the ambience. Here's what we tried: -Crab Dip: 10/10 - SOOO YUMMY! Perfect crab dip, so rich, so flavorful. -Lobster Bisque: 2/10 - This wasn't bisque, it wasn't even chowder. It was so thick and had no real taste to it. -Goat Cheese Burger: 9/10 - creamy, goat cheese was the star, overall delicious. fries were good too! -Lobster Ravioli: 7/10 - disappointing, to be honest. Sauce was great but the ravioli itself kind of tasted like frozen lobster ravioli. -French dip Sandwich: 6/10 - super salty, very savory, but very little depth of flavor. Could've used something zingy. -Chocolate Cake: 9/10 - no one can argue with a chocolate cake. I mean come on! I loved that it came out cold and dense.
