We dropped in late afternoon and grabbed a few seats at the indoor bar. The bar staff here works the entire bar I'm sure we were greeted by all of them during our visit and each provided exceptional service. The drinks here are very creative and all come with very generous pours, if you like rum this is a place you'll fall in love with after your first sip - we decided to just go down the drink menu and try as many as we could responsibly and immediately knew this would be a favorite when in the area. I'd be hard pressed to pick a favorite drink and it would be just as tough to pick a favorite off their small bite menu. We decided to try a few of the specials, it's a relatively simple menu but everything is filled with flavors that are incredible - the char-grilled oysters are plumb, fresh and unique in every way, the fried black grouper bites were crispy served with a delicious remoulade and a spicy jalapeño chimichurri that will light up your tastebuds, we also tried the jerk chicken thighs skewers and amazing crab empanadas filled with a curry concoction like no others. The portions are large enough to share and really balance out the cocktails, this was a really nice experience and one I plan to repeat in the near future, with all the options in St. Augustine this one is at the very top of the list in my opinion and with parking at a premium in the area they have plenty, definitely worth a try...

I really hate leaving negative reviews, especially for a local spot I want to see succeed, but I…read morefeel management needs to hear this feedback. The renovations are a massive improvement over the previous bar, and the atmosphere is genuinely lovely. The Good: The food is generally solid. The fish dip and salads are nice, and I've had the smash burger a few times--it's amazing. The fish sandwich I ordered was very bad and I couldn't get a member of staff's attention so left it uneaten. The Bad: Unfortunately, my most recent visit was entirely derailed by the service. We sat at the bar and the experience was frustrating. The female bartender (dark hair, glasses) repeatedly interrupted me while I was trying to order, and then got my drink wrong. When I tried to correct it, she literally walked away. My friend tried to order for me, but three bartenders were huddled together chatting and completely ignoring the patrons. We spent a lot that night, and leaving a fish sandwich I didn't enjoy (and couldn't send back due to lack of service) just added to the disappointment. I sincerely hope management addresses the bar staff's lack of attentiveness, because if this continues, this cute place won't last. I'd be happy to speak with the manager directly about this, as we are locals who want to keep coming back.

We sat at the bar, but I didn't try any drinks as I'm not a big beer drinker. The server was working alone and taking care of the whole restaurant, yet was still so friendly and bubbly even while being incredibly busy. The inside was cute and had a very classic tavern look. I ordered the kozmic chicken panini and it had so much flavor and was all perfectly melded together! The bread it was on was great as well. The pasta salad was just alright but the panini was good enough to make up for it!

This means long wait times to sit down at restaurants and long lines if you choose to grab a bite to go. We luckily ended up here while we waited to be called at other places where we had been told the wait times were 1.5-2 hrs. We divided our group of 16 into smaller groups and we were all able to sit down right away. There was live music which went great with the ambience of this place. The service was great. We all tried different dishes and one suggestion would be to include a side with the dishes that don't include it. Recommendations to give a try would be the burger and the buffalo boneless wings. As far as parking goes, we parked in the main garage by the visitor's center and walked the whole day. This place must have been about a 10 min walk from the garage. Keep in mind, this is not a fancy restaurant, but it's good for a quick bite or drink during the day.

Lexus helped me at the front and was very friendly and helpful with suggestions. I had their cheese burger with Cajun fries. Seriously knocked my socks off.

Plus, it would be the perfect food after a few drafts or local drinks. Can't recommend more and will definitely be returning!

Also a lot of locals at the bar, which means that locals like it too.

Our highlights include: - The ability to create customized grilled cheese sandwiches with tons of options to choose from.

No excuses. - Many gaming options in multiple rooms. - Being open late enough for us to return for a second visit after an evening concert at the ampitheatre.

This grilled cheese is stacked with cheddar, sausage, a fried egg, crispy hash browns, and their spicy mayo. It is hearty, rich, and packed with flavor in every bite.

Add in classic arcade games and a laid back atmosphere, and Sarbez! easily becomes a must stop when you are in St Augustine. Great food, fun drinks, and good energy all around.
