Seafood and pasta special
MaryLou B.

Shoutout to our local community heroes ! Who knew that I would be able to enjoy on of the best spinach pies ever made at Ned's! When the specials were announced to our table, I was like say less! This beauty was presented with a crust so crispy, flaky, delicate and then generously filled with savory spinach goodness with creamy feta.... Taste the Love!! I savored every bite and did not even let anyone try to taste some! They made their choice... I have no regrets! I know that they all loved their entrees, because theirs was gone as quickly as mine! I noticed that towards the end, I kept cutting the last pieces smaller than the previous, because I was trying to make it last longer! But alas, all good things must come to an end... until next time ... Easter 2026 is dropping the mic !!

The food is great "American" style with a twist. Service is always spot on. No waiting on refills of drinks no long wait to order. The ambiance is very casual and laid back. We come every week. We ask for Tony for r Crystal just because they know our tastes.

Chicken parmigiana

Yep still a 5/5 at Ned's today. Plenty of flavorful food - friendly staff. I had my usual liver and onions today it was with mashed potatoes carrots and green beans. Wife had the chicken parm. Everything was great. Well done Ned's.

This is a must visit restaurant too. If you love southern food, this is a right place. I love their dinner menu. But this time we went for lunch. And they got a lots of delicious food too. I had frittata, love it. With some veggies. The service is okay, you gotta little patience because they have a lots of customers. The restaurant is very casual. And people talking loud enough. Anyway, prices are reasonable.

One of my top restaurants to get good grub in St. Augustine that's not hipster, touristy nor over-the-top. It's like the epitome of the St. Augustine we used to know growing up. The service at Ned's is consistently great! Michelle was our server and she was very personable, efficient and gave outstanding customer service. The entire staff was amazing and didn't miss a beat from the chefs to the gals at the counter. Come as you are... There's definitely something on the menu for everyone's palate. I tried the recommended Flounder Pesada lunch special and the fish was perfectly seasoned, cooked and sauced paired with a fresh garlic, butter and lemon pasta and bread. My meal also came with string beans and carrots that went nicely with the meal. I had plenty of food to enjoy so the portions are very generous. If you like fish, this was excellent! The calamari and fried green tomatoes are fantastic starters to share and if you have room, their peanut butter pie is worth getting or order one of each dessert to pass around. Their black coffee was good and strong which I certainly appreciate when paired with desserts. Overall, Ned's Southside Kitchen is a real local winner with delicious food options. Just a fantastic little diner all around! 5-STARS

Cobb Salad with Grilled Chicken
Keith E.

Very cool dining experience! I had the Southside salad (which was as big as my head) with grilled chicken with a nutritional yeast and garlic dressing. Our server was friendly and attentive. We were sat right away in this cozy restaurant.

Our awesome turkey and meatloaf dinners!

Great Southern comfort food! We eat at Ned's for the first time and it was delicious. My wife had the turkey dinner and I chose the meatloaf. The portions were huge and the service was excellent. Our waitress was friendly and engaging. We'll be back soon.

A fellow camper recommended this place-definitely worth it! Husband had a Rueben and I had the chicken parmigiana. They have a large selection and staff very friendly. Would recommend!!

This place is a gem!! Had no idea it was there and it was busy and super tasty. I always say the more people of the older generation in a restaurant the better it is and this place was packed. The have beer and wine, so I ordered a Prosecco I started with the cream of mushroom soup. And my bf with a side salad. The soup was def homemade and really tasty. Pro tip use the salad croutons for crunchies. My bf tried the nutritional yeast dressing they make but ultimately settled on vinaigrette but it was great that the server brought options. I ordered the fried cheese app for dinner and my bf got the chicken parm. There was a small issue with the cheese when it came out but the kitchen remade it and n it was it delish. No marinara needed as they too it with a house made garlic butter so good. The chicken parm was fresh no soggy and covered in cheese. He loved it!! They brought us a free dessert since it was out first time and the chocolate peanut butter pie was the jam. The server did take my item off the check and was really good at handling the situation. Overall we will be back and can't wait to try more things!! Solid place in town!!! Server was great I couldnt remember his name but very helpful.

Well, we finally made it and were so glad we did! Our reservation was for 4:45 and we arrived early (so we still had the option for the lunch menu choices). We sat on the patio and the water view was a bonus, made for a chill vibe. Our server was friendly, told us a bit about the menu and brought our drinks. We decided to start with a house salad, which was perfectly light and refreshing, it hit the spot! For dinner we ordered the trio (for 1) to share (with 2 sides of rice) and it was the perfect amount of food. We requested medium rare for the picanha (steak) and our server told us that's how all their meat is cooked. Unfortunately it came out more like medium (on the med well side), but was still very tender and tasty. I really enjoyed the crispy seasoned crust. The chicken was delicious, love the chimichurri topping. The chorizo was ok, not our favorite. It was accented with broccolini, carrots and potatoes. Those were yummy, wish there had been a few more. Overall, we were very pleased. Atmosphere was 10/10. We explored the little market, loved the option to buy several of the menu items (dressing, chimichurri, etc.). We would have liked to see the outside grills working, I feel like the "show" is part of the draw. Unfortunately they weren't in use when we were there, the server said due to it being a slow night. I'm looking forward to our next visit and trying more of the menu items.

What should have been a pleasant dining experience turned into an extremely stressful and disappointing situation due to the unprofessional conduct of the manager on duty, Ms. Kale. Upon arrival, my family and I were instructed to wait outside, which we did patiently for nearly an hour. Despite this long wait, we were then seated in an extremely crowded area with no regard for comfort, space, or safety. This lack of organization created significant stress for us, especially given my current recovery from a broken femur and hip. Additionally, my elderly mother, who flew from another country to visit us, and my four children -- including one with special needs -- were placed in an environment that was unnecessarily overwhelming and preventable with proper management. What made the situation far worse, however, was the behavior of Ms. Kale. When we voiced our concerns politely, she responded with unacceptable rudeness. Instead of offering a professional apology or attempting to correct the situation, she dismissed our concerns and even laughed in our faces. This reaction was not only unprofessional but deeply disrespectful. It reflected a complete lack of leadership, empathy, and customer-care standards. It is clear that this location is focused on bringing in as many guests as possible for profit, yet management is failing to properly coordinate seating, resulting in overcrowding and poor guest experiences. A manager's role is to ensure smooth operations and address issues respectfully -- something that was clearly lacking under Ms. Kale's supervision. I hope that this complaint is taken seriously, as no family should be treated in this manner. I request that appropriate action be taken to address the behavior of the manager and to improve the overall management practices at this location. Thank you for your attention. I look forward to you seeing seeing to help improvements implemented so that other guests do not experience what we did.
