    A classic old cash register next to the children art wall
    Roger C.

    We've been bringing out-of-town guests here for years at their request. The breakfast is consistently good, particularly the omelettes and pancakes. On today's visit I had the country breakfast of two eggs over easy, bacon, wheat toast and fruit. Everything was good, though the bacon was a bit crispier than I prefer. The cup of fresh fruit was a nice alternative to hash browns, home fries or grits. The staff here is always on top of things and friendly. It has the vibe of a family business.

    What a great local breakfast spot! The service was excellent and the food was delicious. The ambience was very nice with lots of local art. I also liked the selection of hot sauces including a local sweet heat option. I will definitely return!

    Biscuit sausage sandwich with egg and Swiss. Some home fries from my husbands plate and fresh fruit.

    Came here twice it's that good. Great service and large delicious breakfast portions. Very reasonable too. Their biscuits are so good and their homemade sausage is lean and delicious. And you can't go wrong with either the home fries or hash browns.

    Quiet local establishment that has the ole time diner feel. Counter, booth, table service or take away available. The waitstaff were friendly and hospitable. Our veggie and meat omelette were hot, fresh and plentiful, so much so, we ate breakfast there two days in a row. Enjoy!

The crab bisque fries were crispy and the bisque tasty. The lobster ravioli was SO good. I usually do not like cheese with seafood but this worked perfectly. It was creamy, savory, slightly sweet from the crab and shrimp cheese sauce it comes in which perfectly complemented the very stuffed lobster ravioli. The fish and wedges were really good too. Fish was meaty and crispy, wedges tasted roasted instead of fried and the coleslaw was creamy, crunchy and sweet. As a bonus, the tartar sauce was good too. Our server (Josh?) was very attentive, polite, friendly and quick. The menu isn't huge but I would come back if I'm in the area again. There are some coupons available as well for lunch in those travel pamphlets at the hotels.

The menu has about ten different burgers to choose from, as well as other sandwiches , salads, and even about ten breakfast items. All of the names of the items have a car reference since the restaurant was previously a filling station. The decor also has a car ambiance. I chose the mustang burger. It had American cheese, bacon, bbq sauce and an onion ring on it. It was very tasty. Side options were fries, coleslaw, sweet potato fries or onion rings. I went with the onion rings. Portions on the burgers and the sides were very good.

We were seated outside this visit which was fine as it was shady. I had the corned beef has with hash browns and 2 sunny side eggs. The corned beef is full of shredded corned beef with just a small amount of potatoes. The hash browns with onions were nice and crispy as I asked and the eggs were cooked nicely with the right amount of run when broken.

For the seafood feast, we ordered scampi style and it was good, but it reminded me of a clam sauce style, not really buttery and garlicky.

Idk why everyone loves serving food in plastic bags. It's sooo hot from the steam that plastic leaches into the food. I don't get the infatuation with this, unless you're ordering to go. The fans upstairs are a nice and necessary touch and not too hot up there, despite being summer in July. I would go back and order the stuffed flounder again!

Our server, Justin, took quite awhile getting to us (we are certain he was just covering too many tables of 4 or more people), but he was an excellent, enthusiastic and helpful and attentive server when he arrived. The salads and entrees were fresh, loaded with high quality ingredients, and each was remarkably tasty and well made. The grilled foods were grilled to perfection and the smokey taste of the grill was embedded into every bite. Black Molly dinner salads are enormous - they are a full dinner in and of themselves. There is a Cesar, a Mediterranean, and a Chef salad offered. I had the Chef and The Boss had the Mediterranean with Shrimp. I had no idea they were as big as they were or we might have downsized a little. They came in a bowl that was really big, full of fresh mixed garden greens, excellent grilled vegetables, plump juicy tomatoes and were a delicious meal all by themselves. Half the salads went home with us to provide another meal. The shrimp were huge and perfectly prepared. The Chef Salad had great hunks of real ham and the most amazing produce and the dressings were excellent. I will be saddened to go back to store bought dressings and ranch and balsamic glazes. Get a side of (I think you have to specifically ask for) "Crispy" French fries no matter what else you order. They are the perfect size fries, crispy outside, moist delicious inside, and seasoned to perfection. We saw another table eating them and they looked so good we ordered a side - so glad we did. The restaurant is not inexpensive, but it is worth it. Quality food prepared with great attention to detail, fabulous tastes and excellent value. If you want a fresh, delicious, exceptional ingredient meal prepared to perfection, give the Black Molly a try!!!

The venue is on A1A, right by St Augustine Beach. This was our first time there. They serve food but we had dinner beforehand, so we only had drinks. It's a nice little venue though. The show itself was awesome and Mick was so nice to meet afterwards! Why am I giving a 5 star review when we didn't even try their food? I'm at fortunate to know a few people that many would consider to be famous in the world of music. I have tagged along with them when they've done meet & greets at venues of various sizes from hundreds of fans to thousands of fans. Many, MANY venues handle these things very poorly. It ends up leaving fans feel as if the artist doesn't care about them when it's actual the venue that is unprepared and/or is treating the fans that dirt. That was absolutley NOT the case at Cafe Eleven. Every person we encountered from the staff seemed genuinely concerned with making sure the fans had a good experience. For us, this started a week prior when they took the time to email us to double check something about our order because our order was a bit odd. My wife paid for part of the order and our friends paid for the other half. The venue actually took the time to reach out to make sure we knew everything needed to match up. We did know that ahead of time but the fact that they even bothered was a touch I don't think I've ever heard of another venue taking the time to do. Well done Cafe Eleven! Based on that alone, I wouldn't think twice about driving down from Jacksonville next time there's an event at Cafe Eleven that I'm interested in.
