It's a perfect blend of flavor and seasonings, but there's a crunch to these tacos that sets them apart for us. Especially when eaten fresh. That's the key.

Visiting St Augustine and with two separate recommendations for Kingfish Grill, we decided to try…read moreit out for dinner. First, plenty of parking! Inside we saw it was clean and new...great design. We sat at the bar and met, Geo, our bartender. As we arrived early, 5:00 pm, he had time to connect with us ... this is why we like sitting at the bar! His drinks were excellent! For appetizers, we ordered (1) calamari which was perfectly cooked (not rubbery) and had a delicious sweet and slightly hot sauce; (2) pork dumplings..perfect and (3) 6 oysters on the half shell ..very fresh and tasty! We were filling up fast but still had room for two sushi rolls which, again, were delicious! Just looking at the dessert menu filled us up! Another thumbs up to the manager who stopped by to check in and speak with us for about 5 minutes! If we lived in St Augustine, Kingfish Grill would certainly be a regular hangout! Great food, service and friendly staff. Perfect! A++

Kingfish Grill 504 West Geoffrey Street, St. Augustine, FL…read more32086 Kingfish Grill offers the convenience of plenty of parking and a polished, coastal setting that initially sets the bar high. Unfortunately, the overall experience fell short of those expectations. Service was the biggest drawback. We waited over 45 minutes for our food, and once it arrived, it was incomplete. I ordered the fresh catch of the day, blackened, but the accompanying Thai spicy sauce never made it to the table. My wife's poke bowl was served without enough sauce, and when we asked for extra, we were told they had already run out. Despite reminding our server, the sauces never arrived. After waiting an additional 15 minutes, we ended up finishing our meals as they cooled--still without the promised accompaniments. Sauces may seem like a small detail, but for dishes like blackened fish and poke bowls, they are essential to the overall flavor. The food itself was average. Not bad by any means, but certainly not memorable. We've had far better fish and poke bowls elsewhere, especially for a restaurant positioned as a seafood destination. The best way to describe the meal is upscale fast-casual rather than a standout dining experience. While Kingfish Grill has potential and a good location, the slow service and lack of attention to detail overshadowed the visit. With improvements in consistency and service, it could be much better--but for now, it didn't meet our expectations.

5 stars hands down! Came in around 10am before dropping the littles to school. Walked in, no one…read morebut another couple was inside looking at the menu. We glanced at the menu and ordered at the register. Bring cash! Helps local businesses keep more of their profit than paying high service fees for card payments. 3% charge for card swipes. I love the cash payment way over cards anyday but I'll leave that for a forum discussion. We sat outside and food arrived promptly. Ratings are as follows: * Kids Pancake 10/10 (fluffy, air, tasted like vanilla it was delicious. *French Toast 4/10 I could be wrong but I thought the menu said cinnamon roll on a brioche bread. Not sure tasted like regular white bread flat and not cinnamony. * Kids egg breakfast 10/10 she left nothing *Coffee regular self serve 10/10 dark roast! Delicious and fresh Total $37 could be because I paid with card since I only had a $20 on me. Nonetheless great spot, friendly service, and I loved the outside space.

We had an awesome time a few weeks back when we went down to Cafe Eleven in St Augustine for…read moreStorytellers show and Meet & Greet with wrestling legend Mick Foley! 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.

It's $10 for two pours of their premier wine of either red or white. We opted the red route and loved each one (I forgot the names). Then we went upstairs and got a table for our family of seven. After spending four hours, it was well worth the price. We shared the short rib sliders, steak frites and Caesar salad. The kids got fries on the side. Their espresso martinis were different, with a marshmallow topper (honestly, this could have gone without). Their sangrias were very tasty. Then ordered a beer here and there. Our server was amazing! I wish we got her name. She served our table of seven on Saturday, 1/17/2026. Can't wait to come back just me and my fiance for date night!
