This place was amazing. We had the steamed clams, clam strips and conch fritters all were hot fresh and stellar. The clam strips were some of the best I've ever had. I will definitely not only return but I will bring some friends. read more

A must if you're in St. Augustine! Nothing fancy but it's good food at a good price. Didn't get a picture of the lobster roll but there's plenty of those on here. Service was good, food came out quick. I tried the salad because I didn't see any photos of it, it was pretty good! Huge salad for $10. The dressing was okay, really sweet but you can taste the lime. I definitely recommend stopping by to try the lobster roll or the shrimp po boy, can't go wrong with either! read more

Place your order when you walk in and seat yourself. Seating is limited, dining in seating is upstairs and outside dining is an option. When your food is ready, you will be notified with the buzzer for pickup. Ok, the overloaded lobster roll is amazing. You get 1/2 lb of lobster meat. There is an option cold or warm sandwich. I chose warm with dazzle of butter. It come with Cole slaw is was good. The restaurant is small and very clean. There no seafood smell. After you finish dinning, you clear your table. I highly recommend DJ' s Clam Shack!!! read more

The staff and the food here are 5 stars. The set up here is not good. I wait in line to order. I have to come back for our food and clean up after ourselves. Quality of the food here is very good! We enjoy their fish tacos and lobster rolls. Their sweet potatoes are so much better than their French Fries. I like draft beer and they only have bottled. You have to go upstairs to get a table inside. Not a comfortable place to sit down and eat but if you do you will enjoy the food! read more

Cute stop in shopping center! Today there was a band playing and they had lots of tables outside to sit and enjoy meal.. you go inside to order and no seats inside. We got cold lobster roll and it came on nice buttery roll. There was huge pieces of lobster! They also sell shirts and other merchandise but shirt I wanted was out of stock! lol! We enjoyed stopping here to take break from shopping! Great food great vibes!! read more

Great seafood spot right in St. Augustine. Quick service counter, so no worries about a wait staff. They had a nice outdoor patio with live music for lunch. Or you can dine up on the second floor, limited seating up there. The shrimp and fish baskets were very good, great tartar sauce and cocktail sauce. The garlic shrimp roll was delicious, and my wife loved her fish tacos! I would definitely recommend this seafood shop! read more

A really enjoyable spot, especially if you catch it on a good day. We visited on a Sunday and were treated to live music on a shaded patio, which was a perfect escape on a hot afternoon. The atmosphere alone is worth the trip. The food delivered too. The lobster roll at $28 gives you pause, but it earns its price tag and is genuinely worth it. The fried shrimp basket was also a winner, with delicious shrimp as the highlight. Skip the fries and go for the onion rings instead. Not a destination we'd drive across town for, but absolutely one we'd return to if we were in the area. A great option when the weather and the music align. read more

Overall we liked DJ's. The food was good but typical for a seafood shack. It definitely has a feel of a beachside hangout. Next time I'd skip the conch fritters (mediocre) and opt for the lobster roll which looked amazing. We'll definitely try it again on our next St Augustine visit. read more

This was a great find, nothing fancy. Walk inside order from the menu on the wall and find a seat in the courtyard or upstairs. They give you a buzzer and you pick up your order and return to your seat and begin the most enjoyable/favorable/ rich clam chowder and the most juicy and flavorful full belly clams, spit of Cape Cod. Very good and worth the market price. On a personal preference point, not a fans of the french fries with that seasoning coating. Otherwise great New England treat. Lobster rolls that others had were raved about. Definitely worth a stop in St Augustine read more

Me and my family spent the day in St Augustine, visiting Fort Mose to close out Black History Month(excellent history of enslaved people in that area). We had already planned to eat at DJ's Clam Shack, a favorite since visiting Key West and promoted by Guy Fieri, Food Network. The lobster rolls are the best, you must get it hot, the bread, fresh lobster meat with butter will melt in your mouth and the coleslaw is very fresh. The conch fritters, fries and clams were all tasty and very delicious. The staff are very friendly and patient. There is inside and outside seating, we decided to eat outside, 75 degrees and a light breeze so remember DJ's Clam Shack on Hypolita the next time you visit St Augustine. read more

DJ's Clam Shack - Seafood Near Me - St. Augustine, Florida

First timers here We had the famous lobster rolls $20 each served hot on like a Texas toast bun The rolls were excellent but not very filling at all even for a woman as I had to order additional rolls for her. The coleslaw was very tasty as well and it's cheaper to park in the lot of the fort at $10 max than $15 for a private lot that's basically the same distance. So three rolls, and one little bottle of Chardonnay and one little bottle of Prosecco plus $10 to park , state tax and local tax plus tip equals $120.63 read more

Delicious and packed lobster rolls. Definitely a casual spot but plenty of seating both outside and upstairs. Order at a window and then pick up the food when it's ready.

A generous amount of lobster ($46) however it was almost tasteless. You can definitely tell it was frozen. Kind of disappointing. The fried clams were great ($18). They have a really nice shady outdoor area to enjoy your food. read more

Been to the Key West location. First time at this location and so much closer to home!! Friendly and fast service. Loved the shaded outdoor seating area, with additional indoor seating upstairs. So happy to see Ipswich Clams on the menu, which were absolutely tasty and delicious! Perfectly seasoned and served with crispy fries and coleslaw for the perfect meal. Relaxing meal after leisurely strolling the streets of Saint Augustine in the heat. read more

This was the least busy place in st. Augustine after new years. Nice little patio and upstairs space. Even though st. Augustine was crowded , this place was almost empty. Easy ordering and not a huge menu. Got the regular lobster roll for $28. They also had the overstuffed lobster roll for $46. The bread was nice buttery and toasty but the lobster filling was a bit on the bland side and very little. I was expecting more taste and a bigger amount of lobster for the price. Also got the clam chowder loaded Fries. Didn't like it at all, the clam chowder tasted really bad. This place was once and done. At least for me. read more

I've been to dj's clamshack in key west, so I had to try this closer location. When I went to the key west location no lie my lunch lobster roll was so amazing I went back later that same day for dinner. Unfortunately the lobster roll in st aug didn't wow me like that. For the price i would say the amount of food was adequate. The buttery toasted bun was delicious. However the lobster itself was just ok- bland and not quite thawed enough. Also would have liked the lobster to be cut up a little bit easier to eat. I also can't stand the unlisted "market price" on the sign. I get if you can't print the price on the actual printed menus, but surely you can change the daily price on the sign. I also hate coleslaw so i would have rathered pay $1-$2 without it. read more

SO and I stopped here for a quick bite. It's a great place to satisfy your Maine and Connecticut lobster roll jones. They also make a pretty good New England clam chowder.

I saw the whole belly clams were not $38 as seen on other pictures but lowered to 32.00 so I decided to get them. I asked them if they could do me a favor and keep the batter light, which they said sure, no problem. Coming from Connecticut I missed whole claims and I will say I enjoyed the entire meal. Three dollar upgrade for the onion rings, which were also good. My wife got shrimp tacos, which she said had a good amount of shrimp. Yeah it can be a bit pricey like most places eating out, but we were both full and happy when we left. read more

Can't get enough of this place! If you're looking for fresh seafood with a great service, definitely stop to DJ's. After our tour at Fort Mose, we decided to go to our go to spot for fast, casual food, and of course, had to get a lobster roll. My dad got an order of the steam neck clams, which are in a bed of this flavorful, garlic butter broth. This was the first time that we had them from here and it was so good. Of course I should've realized it was going to be good as their clam chowder is amazing. Thankfully, it was sunny and 75 so we got to sit outside and enjoy a perfect Florida day with amazing food. read more

While researching must eats in St. Augustine I stumbled upon this lead back restaurant that was also featured on DDD. Casual dining, order inside, wait outside at table until buzzer calls you which was only about 10 minutes. I didn't even let my husband order as there were two items I had to have: conch fritters and the lobster roll warm with butter and a cold beer. Conch was creamy with nice chunks of fish and had a side of fries & cole slaw and lobster so sweet, & chunky and had cole slaw. It was a perfectly delicious lunch we shared in a cool outside terrace. So glad we went! read more

Saw this place featured on a YouTube video (Brennen Taylor) and since we were planning on visiting Saint Augustine anyway, we put this at the top of our To-Do list for places to eat. Sweet baby Jesus.... We split the overstuffed lobster roll and though it was pricey for one sandwich, it was a 10/10 worth every penny. I'd do it again. Multiple times. Got the hot lobster roll rather than the cold but did hear the cold was even better. I'm not sure how that could be possible but I'm willing to find out. Coleslaw came with and it was also fantastic. Staff was amazing as well and honestly matched the hype of the food. Highly recommend. Will be back. read more

Nice spot with a cool vibe. Caleb was very helpful giving us several suggestions to enjoy during our visit. We ordered at the window and sat outside to enjoy our Main Lobster Rolls and Clam Chowder. We chose the warmed lobster roll with melted butter. The bun was nice and buttery, the lobster was cooked perfectly and tender meat inside. The clam chowder was seasoned well and was a nice side with the rolls. We enjoyed it so much we returned a 2nd time before we left for home. read more

DJ's Clam Shack - Seafood Near Me - St. Augustine, Florida

Ok, where do I start? I was looking for some seafood on my quick day trip to St. Aug and found DJ's on Yelp. It was such a quick walk from the Fort so it was very convenient. It is such a hidden gem! There is a cute patio area outside but it was way too hot to sit and enjoy so we went inside to cool down and get some a/c. It is counter service so you order at the front inside, and there is a pick up window to get your food after your beeper rings. The upstairs is where the seating is, with a few seating areas. Cozy seafood themed, it was perfect for the vibe. The food, like I said, where do I start? We ordered the lobster roll, clam chowder, kids shrimp meal, and chicken tacos. All were FANTASTIC. The lobster roll was loaded with meat. The chicken tacos were on an 8" tortilla. It came with two so my husband had one and I had the other. Him and I agreed that the clam chowder was the BEST that we ever had! Full of potato's and clam, it did not skimp on any of that. The taste was perfect, not too salty and not bland. The shrimp that my daughter had was amazing too! Service was excellent. The lady who worked up front checked up on us several times. Very friendly. Next time I take a trip to St Augustine, I will stop by here again! read more

Great experience, location and food. We went in for the lobster roll, but decided to split the fries topped with clam chowder, and garlic bread instead. You go in and order at the counter, we chose an outside table, made of whiskey barrel. It was fun, eating under, I believe they were magnolia trees. The was sufficient shade for this warm sunny day. Only a couple of tables had interfering sun issues. The garlic bread tasted AWESOME. We believe they were made out of the same bread they use for their lobster rolls. The fries with clam chowder, worked extremely well together. It was a nice little break before we began our trek to find some cute windshield I saw yesterday, but could not find them today :) read more

DJ's Clam Shack - Lobster Rolls - Seafood Near Me - St. Augustine, Florida

Decided to treat myself for one of DJ's lobster rolls. Now they are pretty expensive but remember it's lobster and they do stuff that tasty bun full of lobster meat. You can get it hot with butter or the traditional way like me, cold with mayo. We were a group of people so dining friends who don't like lobster got shrimp tacos that come with fries. And another friend ordered onion rings and fried calamari with a side of chili sauce. My lobster roll was fresh and definitely stuffed well and quite filling. The roll came with a side of slaw as well. (I'm sorry my camera skills totally missed the pic.) I tasted the onion rings and they were excellent. I was told the 2 shrimp tacos that were fried were well stuffed and very good. The only disappointment was the calamari. The plus was it was Fresh and definitely not frozen however, in the kitchens haste to get it out the calamari it was underdone and the coating tasted a little raw. It needed a few more minutes and it would have been excellent. The atmosphere here is very casual. You order at the counter indoors, get a beeper and wait. Seating is all outdoors as far as I can tell. I've been here a few times and never noticed indoor seating. The outdoor seating is picnic tables and high tops. If you love lobster like me I think this is the best lobster roll around. Here's a secret If you live locally stop in on Wednesdays and mention you're a local. read more

So you order at the cash register and they give you a beeper and you go get your own food. We are from Boston so there's that. We did not like the clams they were very dry and almost powdery with a weird taste. The lobster roll was big & was very good and also the fries and coleslaw were tasty. the restaurant itself was clean and cute. The staff were all super nice. I would definitely come back and try other things but if your used to New England style clams this is not it, I'm not sure if it's because they were frozen or sitting there but get something else. If you're not from Boston I'm sure this will be fine for you. read more
