Visiting St Augustine and with two separate recommendations for Kingfish Grill, we decided to try it 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++ read more

Shoutout to our local community heroes!! This venue was a second location for an amazing restaurant that was closer to the ocean, but now thankfully here closer to me. I loved the history shares with me by manager Donna. She was so very friendly, personable, and enlightening. Not only is this venue a legend, but also smart to have kept Donna on board for @10 years of Faithful service. read more

My wife and I had dinner this evening. My wife went with her "go to" meal which was the seafood platter grilled. I went with the specials, I had the seafood jambalaya soup as a starter and the seafood stuffed flounder which was stuffed with shrimp, scallops and crab and topped with a sun-dried tomato cream sauce. Both of our meals were delicious. Kudos to the kitchen staff for a wonderful meal. Our experience was enhanced by our server Brandy. She was very attentive and pleasant. Highly recommend to any and all! Lindsay and Linda Johnson read more

My husband and I have been hosting trivia here for a little over a month and we couldn't be happier. The management and employees are so friendly and welcoming to us. We make it a point to order food each night and we have NOT been disappointed. The food is fresh, vibrant, and best of all delicious! You will not be disappointed if you give Kingfish a try. Of course we would love for you to come out on a Monday night and join us for some free trivia and enjoy a scrumptious meal, however if you can't please go to Kingfish and have a wonderful meal! read more

Kingfish Grill 504 West Geoffrey Street, St. Augustine, FL 32086 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. read more

The place is not only closed, it's has been torn down!! Looks like the Marina needed the land more than the restaurant did!

Son is visiting went to Kingfish for an early dinner. Plenty of parking. Great service and the food was yummy. Sonny had their jalapeño tuna with the fish special. I had the grouper fish sandwich with a side of spinach. read more

This popular area restaurant moved in to the former home of Black Molly Grill in the Cobblestone shopping center on 312. The interior is completely redone and feels more open and bright. This was my first visit to this eatery at any location and I had the catch of the day, which was flounder, grilled in a spicy Thai chili glaze. My companions had the chicken piccata sautéed in XVOO garlic and the half rack of St. Louis ribs. Everything was excellent and our server Brantley was prompt and helpful. We'll be coming back. read more

The good and the service was great; our waitress was Alison who ensured we were cared for. The environment was clean and conducive for enjoying our meal/drinks. Truly enjoyed the experience. read more

First time here and came here for my birthday. Allison was our waitress and did she ever deliver! She killed it all night and made the night even more fun. Everyone was friendly and the food was amazing! We had a very enjoyable night! She's just an awesome person and made it an enjoyable experience read more

We had a wonderful dinner with friends and Allison was our waitress. She was wonderful. We will definitely be back. We highly recommend the fish sandwich and the sushi!!! read more

Great food. Had both lunch and dinner over the past few weeks. Penne pasta Ala Vodka was very rich, and could have had less sauce. But that's what the toasted bread is for. Inexpensive wine. Could add a few upper end wines. Samson the waiter is deeply experienced and made good recommendations. Super renovation to the interior. read more

Love it here!! The service and atmosphere is amazing along with some of the best food, sushi and cocktails!!! I truly love every time I come here my experience is always amazing and I definitely leave with a smile and sense of satisfaction read more

Fish was outstanding, bartender/service was great and not noisy at all. Great atmosphere. Will be back soon.

Disappointed, tried to get a drink, bar was full, asked to sit at one of the 4 open high tops , host said no. Tried to spend $ here and they didn't want it Left and spent my money elsewhere read more

My experience at this new establishment has been nothing but perfect service, got blackened shrimp (was fresh and not fishy at all). The bartender Sarah is so pleasant. This is a very good place to take your family, a date, or a couple that needs a good meal and a pleasant evening or afternoon. Very enjoyable read more

Kingfish Grill - Blackened shrimp for lunch. To perfection. - Desserts Near Me - Saint Augustine, Florida

My wife and I decided to spend our 49th anniversary at one of the local establishments. It took us a while to decide because there are so many exceptional restaurants in St. Augustine. We finally opted for the Kingfish grill in its new location. It was a great choice. The interior has been completely redone from the Black Molly setup, and it is more spacious and a little less noisy. The food was superb and Dayna our server was the best. For a local establishment it ranks right up there with the Black Molly, the Black Fly, Neds, Schooners, Fish and Oyster House and the Grouper shack. Definitely a place for locals to check out and enjoy. read more

This was our 2nd visit to the new location. The food was outstanding as was the service. I had the Louisiana Fettuccini and my wife had the horseradish crusted Mahi. Highly recommend! read more

Wanted to love the Happy Hour experience but were disappointed. Appetizers @ $10 each were tasty but too small a portion to satisfy. Did not offer 2 for 1 happy hour drinks. Black Molly's far exceeds in this aspect - people want to feel a value impact. Because of this, it did not have a happy hour "vibe" - it was half empty at 4:30 pm. I think with better portions and pricing during Happy Hour it would draw more people in. My brother had an incredible entree but not everyone wants that. I wish them every success because it's beautiful inside and with some tweaks could be packed everyday. Will not return. read more

Our rating would have been higher apart from this incident. We ordered a glass of wine which was delivered and the cost was added to our bill along with the cost of a whole additional bottle adding some $33 to our total which we had not ordered. Pointed out to server who commented "Oh my mistake!". No apology or comp to bill. Will think twice about going again. Moral CHECK YOUR BILL CAREFULLY! read more

have been going to Kingfish Grill the food is great and Alison our waitress is fantastic but last night when we received our bill they added a service charge $5.50 for using a credit card. Surprised no mention anywhere of this added charge. read more

First time at the new location. Great service, and same great food as always. Reminder, their sushi is LEGIT. Whole menu is strong. Enjoy! read more

Absolutely love this place. I am so glad Kingfish moved to a more accessible location for most of us living or staying in St Augustine. They took over the space that Black Molly was in previously. The new Black Molly space is loud and the tables are packed together. It is hard to enjoy dinner when you cannot hear the people you are dining with at Black Molly so the new Kingfish Grill has been a welcomed addition to the area for anyone looking for a great dining experience. The Kingfish renovation is modern and tasteful. Plenty of parking. The food is great - fresh seafood, tasty specials and amazing sushi. I encourage all locals and visitors try this place. It is in our family's regular rotation of restaurants. read more

Food and service were excellent and not expensive. Prompt and reasonable. Plenty of parking.

Think they did a very nice job redoing this restaurant. It's very open but still has a nice vibe. The service was excellent. We all enjoyed the food. read more

1st time at the new location. It looks great, muted UF colors. The food was good and Racheal our waitress had a good energy and spirit. We will go again. read more

A typical fish place fried fish grilled fish can't say it was bad. Can't say it was great. It was typical not a bad place to go. Eat atmosphere is nice. They did a good job on fixing the building easy to park. Don't have to wait to get in, but it's not special. Sorry, Kingfish. read more

Food: Absolutely delicious, wide selection of fresh seafood from crab cakes, mussels and tuna sushi nachos (in house fresh chips) to an amazing seafood chowder (mildly spicy and creamy). A delightful holiday adult beverage menu includes 'White Christmas." Alison pampered us on our first visit to their newly transformed venue (former location of Black Molly) near BEALS department store. The new decor is upscale immaculate with ample seating at a well-stocked bar. Seating is disability-friendly ( I parked my Rollator next to the Christmas tree. On our second visit both Joe (friendly manager who knows Kingfish Grill) and Alex were helpful describing specials, mains, and the dessert menu. My DC and I sampled the flourless chocolate cake on our first visit and crème brullee on our second. Both were wonderful! My DC had the grilled scallop, shrimp and mahi combo,, which he enjoyed. I ha sea scallops with sautéed spinach. Choices of sides is a plus (one is red beans and rice. A real holiday gift certificate deal includes $ gift certificates. Be sure to treat yourself or others who enjoy up-class dining. Merry Christmas! read more

Kingfish Grill is located in the Cobblestone Shopping Center, where Black Molly had previously been. The building was beautifully renovated with a spacious, uncrowded look. My Husband ordered a pasta dish that was heavy on the pasta, which was a good thing because everyone else needed some of his pasta, which he said was weak in the taste of the sauce, to add to their dishes. I had read a review raving about the Chicken Picatta and was about to order it, though I wasn't very hungry, so two of us shared it. Not big enough to share, but very tasty. One of us had Sushi and found it too HOT to eat. The waiter was very good, but the long wait between courses could only be attributed to a problem in the kitchen. There was even a wait for dessert, which was preplated. The cocktail from the bar was also disappointing. I asked for an Old Fashioned to be made with Bourbon. It also fell flat. I would like to say I'll give them a second try, but I'll wait and see some reviews after mine. read more
