    We checked out Candlelight South to watch some football. I tried the Jai Alai beer which was so good. We also got fried pickles, boom boom shrimp and mozzarella sticks. All were so tasty and just great bar food in general. Service was also really good, our server was very attentive. We would definitely stop by again.

    Awesome wings known for their full wings. The boneless chicken wings are pieces of chicken breast lightly breaded and delicious. The sweet potato fries were outstanding too. Tons of beer options too. Great local spot to watch all the games. Service was attentive and friendly too. Totally a hidden local gem.

    Candlelight South - Delicious Food & Cozy Atmosphere Candlelight South is such a charming spot in Saint Augustine! The food is always delicious -- everything I've tried has been fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, making it a perfect place for a nice dinner out. The only reason I'm giving 4 stars instead of 5 is that the service could be a bit quicker, and our waitress was a little forgetful about a few things during our visit. It didn't ruin the experience, but it's something that could make the dining experience even better.

    Was asking for the best wings in St. Augustine. Was not steered wrong! Came out hot and tasted very fresh. I got the Thai chili option. Partner had a burger. A few days later he is still talking about it. Just a real low key vibe, restaurant was filled with a mix of locals and tourists. I really enjoyed our server. She was so friendly and attentive. Didn't get annoyed that I had a lot of questions. Have never had a Hawaiian mule, it was strong and tasty. Great place!

    Wow! Let me start by saying Best Wings I have ever tasted! I got a tip (from a local artist) that Candlelight is a must go to for locals and to order the wings Crispy -Hot -Parmesan! The bar service is great. Cold drinks a nice patio and Sporting events on the big screens inside. It's a good time! Don't be in a rush, excellence takes time! Take my word for it, order extra, you will want to take some wings home with you!

    Excellent waitress, and good food, or what you would expect from a restaurant on the strip. Not over the top but definitely worth giving a try. My quesadilla sandwich was good but chips could have been saltier. Wife really liked her sandwich and the fries were nice and crispy. Great selection of local beers, and some funky mixed drinks. Crowd was revved up for march madness, which is what you want in a bar/restaurant later on at night.

    Do they have sound on for football games or do they play music during games on Saturday and Sunday?

    Least when I was there even for Euro soccer final it was all tv and the people were into it big time.

We came for St. Patty's Day on a Tuesday (Happy Hour/Mexican Fiesta Night) and they offered $1 Tacos, $3 Margaritas & Coronas and free Trivia @ 8:30pm (after Happy Hours). This place was super busy and the entire staff really takes care of their customers. Food and drinks were coming out fast. FYI: Happy Hour - Monday through Friday 4pm to 7pm: Two for one well-drinks, draft beers, and house wines. There is plenty of seating and they have 10 HD satellite TV's including our giant HD projection TV along with a surround sound speaker system. In addition, they also have a dart room with 2 spacious dart lanes and fully equipped dart supply case. Very welcoming environment. You have the option to sit inside, but they also have an outside patio that's pretty cool and smoker friendly where you can enjoy some beers and affordable menu items. My favorite was definitely the fish tacos ($9), but we also ordered plenty of the $1 tacos, too. Ask for their signature Gypsy House Dressing. They also sell it by the bottle ($8) to take home with you. And if you have room, I recommend trying their homemade Hazelnut Ice Box Cake and the Tiramisu. The peanut butter pie was excellent as well. Really....just try all of their desserts. :) They print out a daily appetizer and food menu from the Gypsy Cab Co. as they are obviously owned by the same people. This place was packed full of locals and was surprised at how little Yelp reviews I see here. I think locals try to keep this place a secret. Overall, this is a definite gem worth visiting if you happen to be in the area.
