I love the Oasis! It has great vibes and serves breakfast until 2pm, which is great for a late riser like myself. The bartenders are consistently affable and helpful. I usually sit in the upstairs bar. There are plenty of TVs to enjoy whatever game you'd like to watch. But remember, it's Florida... so it does get a little warm in there. They don't seem to open the windows even though it's located across the street from the beach. Not sure why they don't. Overall, drinks are stiff and the food is good. I ordered the half size Florentine Benedict and it was the perfect portion and so delicious. See y'all again soon! read more

5 stars for Friendly staff at the bar. Ordered the patty melt and grilled mahi sandwich. Food was just ok. 3.5 stars. Lots of TV (at least 17 upstairs), 80's 90's music and average noise with decent amount of folks. Seems like a good local hangout. Parking available onsite. read more

SO disappointed in them today! The GM is ridiculous! They had a grouper dinner, but I couldn't have a grouper sandwich! SMH I had read online about their grouper sandwich being one of the best, so I know they make them. And the waitress (Nikki, who is the only reason this review got 2 stars instead of one - she was wonderful) didn't say they didn't have them. She took order as normal. But the GM told her they couldn't do it as a sandwich! WTH It's not that they didn't have it!!! We have been going there for over 10 years when we are in vacation once or twice a year, but last time we had an issue also. We won't go back! Not with that kind of attitude, Mr GM! Maybe our small amount of patronage doesn't mean much to them, but we always recommended them to others and sent them business. No more!!! But another shoutout to Nikki, and another young man working there, Arizona, who was so nice and sweet! At least they hire good people, even if they don't care to make a customer mad! I ended up not getting anything and eating a bit of my husband's. And his was lacking. Told the tots were better than the fries, but the tots were not good. I would have left, if it was up to me. Pathetic! read more

This place was a major let down. My husband had been looking forward to getting a "bucket" cocktail the whole trip. Cut to our last night (8/24/26) and we decided it was time to check off the last thing from our to-do list before going home the next day. When we walked in there was a sign instructing us to sit wherever, so we sat downstairs on the left side of the building and a waitress brought menus to our table. I told her we were only there for buckets & snacks and asked if we were in the right area or if we should be at the bar. She seemed friendly and told us we were fine where we were. We ordered 2 buckets (coco bango & goombay smash) as well as loaded fries, onion rings, and fried mushrooms. The fries and onion rings were pretty good but the mushrooms were really watery in such an unpleasant way. The ambiance in there was a little strange (tons of loud TVs, dark, and kinda sticky feeling) but maybe just not my cup of tea and that's ok. Where things got weird was with the waitress. After giving us our order, she never came back to check on us even though I saw her walking around giving other tables their checks and hanging out in the back room. We had also been done for quite some time and hadn't gotten our check. I finally had to flag someone down and have them find her, even still, it took forever for her to come to our table. I would be more understanding if this place was remotely busy, but it was dead, so there's no excuse. I get that working in the service industry can be challenging but the bare minimum (checking in on your table and bringing them their check promptly) wasn't even met here. Again, sucky end to our trip and a major disappointment. Good thing there are tons of other amazing places we can go to next trip instead! read more

World Famous Oasis Restaurant - chicken tenders and Loaded Tots - Seafood Near Me - Saint Augustine Beach, Florida

I was forced to come here to meet some friends. I think I would have liked to gone to Beachcomber instead but here we are. I ordered the crab sandwich It was pretty good but not much flavor It did come with lettuce tomato and onion and I also ordered extra tartar and red sauce. We ordered the broccoli cheddar soup and it was good. They ordered conch fritters and they were horrible do not get them they taste like nothing but flavored bread. The smoked white fish dip was good. There were eight of us. But the food came out pretty quickly. Our server was friendly and attentive. We set upstairs. Front parking and back parking dirt parking lot. Place to go if you're in a pinch and need a quick lunch. read more

The food was so good I first ordered shrimp salad bowl, but the shrimp is cold, so I switched it to fish platter. Best decision! The fish is basa fish, kind like catfish. I never heard of basa fish, never had it before, but it's so tender. Love it. I had two sides, broccoli and salad. Broccoli was over cooked to me, salad was good. Hubby had whaler sandwich with one side, onion rings. He was impressed with both, said it was the best onion rings and whaler sandwich he had ever had! The restaurant is old Florida style, not a fancy place. But we like the charms of this place. Lots of outdoor seating, perfect if you come with your fur baby. Oh, they even have doggy menu, how thoughtful! The service was good. We asked for a to go cup for unsweet tea, the waitress gave us a fresh cup! Oh, you pay less if you pay in cash! read more

We were looking for a place to get a relief from the heat... we stop without any expectations... it turn out to be great Excellent service, very accommodating since my friend did not wanted any alcohol in her drink, and they gave her various choices. The conch fritters are excellent- i am from the island and taste like back home. Very friendly and welcoming staff read more

Service was great, food was good, Bathroom was nasty. Temperature for inside was rather really warm. Only a few ceiling fans spinning fast others slow. Might try take out next read more

Started our vacay with lunch at Oasis. Solid place with good food and great service from Nikki. Our choices ran the gamut. Kids had hot dogs and naked wings with french fries worth stealing from their plates. Fish dip came with tortilla chips and carrot sticks and was a nice serving size. Oysters are usually served after 4pm but on the weekends available after 11am luckily for us. We had the Oasis which were crispy and tasty and very fresh raw oysters. The blackened fish tacos were enough to share with the table. The crab Benedict was so good we ordered an extra crab cake. We sat upstairs surrounded by TVs that had every sport you could think of even ESPN20 showing a marble race!! Something for everyone. Oh, and the beer was cold and finished the meal with creamy key lime pie. read more

We loved this bar. We were here on my Birthday and had a real good time winding down our night. The locals were so nice, as usual (very St. Augustine-good people). The bartender was friendly and quick even though it was a crowded Friday night. We did not have food, but the look and smell of the food sat near us for others was very tempting. We had several beers and a birthday shot made up by the bartender (Girl Scout Cookie). It was really good, and I loved spending the end of my birthday here. We will definitely be back on our next visit. read more

We were staying nearby and this was the closest restaurant for a late night dinner after we arrived. Full bar with upstairs and downstairs restaurant tables. Our server was pleasant, friendly but new to this profession. Libations to begin and fried mushrooms for an appetizer. We dined on burgers, reuben, salads and the snapper board special. Everything arrived as ordered and was delicious. Enjoy! read more

Shoutout to our local community heroes!!! Not only is the food amazing, but I feel in love with all the people- the owner Jan is such a sweet Spirit! I was blessed to meet her at her warehouse during the SUPER SCENIC 150 MILE GARAGE SALE event on 11/15/25. I bought so many treasures! The staff here at this venue was the most valuable treasure find!! Tom in his bright yellow t-shirt and even brighter happy Spirit welcomed us from the parking lot and showed us all the many seating options. There's a huge inside dining area, a counter top eating area, a huge sports bar seating area upstairs, and a huge outdoor seating area... dog friendly patio complete with water bowls. We enjoyed the perfect outdoor weather and sat in the warm sun. Nikki was tasked with keepin' us between the navigational lines here on our first visit. She is amazing, kind, personable, and genuine! She gave us TLC and made sure we had a wonderful experience. A cold Yuengling and a Guinness to wet whistle and cruise us into as we had a generous portion of golden brown conch fritters and a bowl of hearty clam chowder. Yumm! Then I had peel and eat shrimp! They were big and sweet! So Perfect that even Bubba Gump would have approved! I had a side of cheesy grits!! ProHubby had a blackened fish sandwich! It was masterfully prepared and so well balanced! We were so full, but Nikki was accommodating me with helping by not letting me pass -up taking a piece of homemade key lime pie! Which was a hit!! My husband is from Florida and this pie is legit! We were informed about the Saturday garage sale by the accountant. We also had a cool discussion with her about the upcoming Thanksgiving buffet. They have already had a lot of response and they are excited about this first time celebration with the community. This will definitely help with the need for this type of opportunity to gather. The next morning we camp for breakfast and the garage sale. Nikki told us that several breakfast/brunch items are available until 2pm almost every day. That is cool to have that option! This morning we were again greeted by the amazing Tom and since we brought our big cane corso we enjoyed the patio again. Tom gave her a dog treat and a water bowl. She loved it! We were taken care of by the Joelie. She was warm, happy, professional, and attentive. I of course had to order biscuits and gravy ... yummy biscuits and sausage gravy and I ordered a side of savory links! Hubby had awesome steak and eggs and grits!!! The were easily consumed!!! Generous portions! The coffee was great!! The even have a Dog Menu!!!! We ordered our Belle a beef patty and an extra biscuit!!! She made fast work of it and devoured it!!! Two paws up to the chef!!! I was able to get a good morning hug from Nikki who was busy inside with all her happy patrons!!! This is going to be a regular spot for us it appears! Tom even said, " We will see you again, right?" Yes, Tom, we look forward to our next visit :) read more

We were here for a Rehearsal dinner and I was so embarrassed for my relatives that had to pay for this. My SIL did all of the decoration and place settings. There was a limited menu of Mahi, Steak and Shrimp, Chicken Breast, Baked Potatoes and salad. Along with drinks and desert which she provided. Drink orders were taken and they had problems bringing out the drinks correctly. Salads were delivered then you had to wait for the dressing packets to be delivered to the table. Now the real journey begins, the orders are coming out and they are being delivered to the tables so far so good. I got the steak and shrimp, steak was cooked perfectly, shrimp were not hot off the grilled they had been pre cooked they place on the plate. Baked potato was luke warm and just barely melted butter. A plate of Mahi came out that was suppose to be blackened, not even close sorry I do not have pictures. That had to go back and came out later still not done correctly it was blackened but no flaky as it should be . Meanwhile in all this time my wife is waiting for her dinner (Well Done chicken Breast). So the first dish came out and I was shocked it was two flat pieces of protein, so I sampled it and it was fish of some sort. So either the cook lost it or the waitress picked up the wrong dish. Finally after two more attempts her dinner arrived as others were eating deserts. Also two other dinners arrived late to other people. Being that I was not paying for these meals I could not say anything, but I hope my BIL/SIL got comped for about ten meals at least. The cooks need to get on the ball and the manager should of been out there talking to the family about the disgrace of this service. read more

What you get for what you pay for it's stupid. $12 for eight fried mushrooms small mushrooms.. my make ultra taste like it's skunked which means been in the sun and then in the cold and then hot again.. There's no good vibe here whatsoever as advertised and truthfully, there's nothing special about this place at all except overpriced food for below average food. The people that work here aren't exactly pleasant to be around. This will never happen again. We're still sitting here waiting for our main course and worse than that. I ordered the chicken finger basket and just found out. It only comes with damn chicken fingers only... I had to buy fries extra!! I've never heard of that entire life!! a basket is exactly what it means chicken fingers and fries or onion rings.. This is my first time the last time ever coming here... don't listen to the people who post five stars or four stars because they're full of shit and they probably work here.. The AC is a really Worker either there's AC unit right in front of our table portable!! DONT EAT HERE! Shop for food instead!! read more

The food was great but not worth the price I paid. My son's chicken tenders were too chewy. The service was good and the restaurant was clean, the prices were just super disappointing for the quality and quantity of food. read more

The World Famous Oasis is on A1A convenient for us. It claims to be a tiki Hut type restaurant but I didn't really see any tiki Hut.. hahaha. Anyway, there was clearly a lot of fish on the menu. They also have a breakfast menu. I had the whaler sandwich which had cheese and two types of peppers, sauce and lettuce. It was excellent. One of the best fish sandwiches I've ever had. I would come here again if I'm in the area. read more

World Famous Oasis Restaurant - Wheeler sandwich.. One of the best fish sandwich I've ever had - Seafood Near Me - Saint Augustine Beach, Florida

HORRIBLE SPOT! Waited exactly 2 hours from ordering, to receive very mediocre food. They were busy, so we waited another hour, however the server only checked on us once after 45 mins only just to tell us they hadn't started our food yet. Finally at 2 hour mark we got our food, but a person in our party with health issues was then too sick to eat due to needing to wait so long for food to take their meds. This caused them to be sick the rest of our evening and trip. Server also charged whole check to one card without asking the card owner, very rude and unprofessional. read more

We always enjoyed the Oasis. Very casual and decent food, and young servers that try to please. This time, it was good again with adequate portions and nice choices on the beer. The big disappointment was the Chardonnay wine that I ordered. It was old, spoiled, and undrinkable. My partner tried it, and felt the same. Our waitress took it back, and brought another one and while it was a tad improved still undrinkable. The only time this happened before were Chardonnay discounted bottles at Walgreens, or a glass at a Chinese restaurant. Barefoot is a house Chardonnay to be considered. Open bottles should be refrigerated. Please check your house stock. Something went awry. On the positive side, no charge, and the Diet Pepsi was refreshing. This is one strike in 40 years. read more

Came here on a Saturday morning & service took two and a half hours (10:30-1pm), including 30 min to get our drinks and then another hour from ordering our food to getting it to our table, plus time waiting for our waiter to take our orders. There are signs saying "seat yourself" but not sure if that was actually true as we sat outside and after we didn't get served for 15 min, I asked the bartender who said to go inside to get on the waitlist, and then the host inside told me that the bartender was wrong and someone would come by our table. The outdoor patio area was fine with picnic tables and lots of games. We got a shaded area but there weren't a lot so be strategic when you come here and maybe prepare for both scenarios. I got a shrimp garden salad and it was exactly what you'd expect (not bad, not great). Probably won't come here next time I'm in the area. A little too chaotic for just a breakfast/lunch read more

World Famous Oasis Restaurant - Menu - Seafood Near Me - Saint Augustine Beach, Florida

This was the first place we ate after moving to St. Augustine in the 1990s. No place captures the old sleepy beach town vibe of Anastasia Island better than Oasis, which has gotten slightly bigger over the years and added parking with a lot next door, but is still the same great place to eat breakfast, lunch and dinner or have a beer and watch sports on multiple TVs. My favorite item on the menu is the Whaler, a blackened fried fish sandwich with Jalapeños, onions and banana peppers. Instead of a toasted bun I like it as a wrap. Check whether the soup of the day is Minorcan clam chowder because their version is one of the best in town. We've had great family memories here of bringing out-of-town relatives. One of the most memorable was when we were exiting and my four-year-old son grabbed somebody's beer off his table and took a drink! We had to buy the amused patron a replacement. read more

Joke right!? World Famous? I Ordered a blackened Mahi Mahi sandwich and that's all I got - a piece of fish on a bun - lol - no tartar sauce - no nothin - nothing offered My wife's crab cake sandwich - boring - no crab flavor or presence - dry on a bun - no lettuce/ tomato nada - none offered The check comes and my $17.99 sandwich is 18.92 My wife's $15.99 is $16.80 Credit card vs Cash price - at a restaurant! I deducted a credit card fee from my tip - because we had to go to the bar to get water refills read more

This place seems like it has been around awhile. My brother and I stopped here for dinner and it was a nice surprise. The ambiance is a bar like atmosphere.

Meh, service was good, food was marginal. Fish was very oily and didn't seemed cooked. Would rate it a 6 out of 10.

I've been coming to the Oasis since the 90s when my family had a timeshare just a block away. It's such a special spot that I take friends and family when we're back in St Augustine. The ambience is laid back and super friendly. Food is fast and tasty, servers are quick and on the ball. A definite must for my family and I would recommend this long standing establishment for you and yours. read more

Don't even waste your time coming to this place. We went here because everywhere else was busy, and they were able to seat us immediately (that should've been my sign lol). As someone who's been a server,bartender, and manager of a massive and popular college sports bar/restaurant, I can still sit here and say that there was no excuse for what we dealt with tonight. It was honestly embarrassing to have my family there, we waited an hour and a half just to receive half of our parties food, only for it to all be taken back because they managed to get every single order wrong. The server came one time, made excuses that she was running in and outside, which would've been understandable if it were actually busy. Every table behind us was empty, and there were only 3 occupied tables outside. Oh and still after all of that we hadn't received silverware yet, but at least we got the side of mac n cheese we ordered that my sister could scoop with her fingers to feed her hungry baby with. ‍ I would include pictures of the mediocre messed up food, but again we didn't even get to eat it. There's clearly no strong management over that team or the kitchen to say the least, which is sad because it has potential, they just can't reach it. read more
