What a cool place for our out of town visitors!!! The food was impeccable.... Kudos to the chef~ the martinis were perfect.... Kudos to the bartender! Our server Myka was above par! He made the visit epic! A photographer took our picture and gave us a free photo! A must do place in St A! read more

I asked the waiter if the hot fudge brownie milkshake had actual hot fudge and brownie in it. He assured me yes. When I was served my milkshake, after waiting for 15 minutes, it did not have a drop of hot fudge in it and the brownie was served in a dish on the side. So, I got a basic chocolate milkshake for $9 rather than the $3 I would have paid at McDonald's. Bad service, bad food, and the place smells dirty on top of that. Don't waste your time or money at this place. read more

What an experience to say the least! Food: 10/10 The food was absolutely delicious! We. Ate. Every. Single. Bite. We ordered the Pretzel as an appetizer and then French dip and a burger for the main meals and wow. So much flavor. So delicious. The beer nacho cheese was amazing! Service: 10/10 The hostesses were super friendly & hilarious! They gave us our wait time and we sat down in the waiting area. After about a 30 minute wait, we were walked over to a huge old school looking booth to eat our dinner at. The young gentleman who took care of us was so kind! Friendly, prompt! Kept our drinks full! Offered a lot of recommendations! We love that kind of service! Walking into a new place with so many different options is sometimes hard to find a good item!! Our waiter was efficient & greatly appreciated! Ambiance: 10/10 Complete prohibition kitchen era type vibes just exactly how it sounds. When we walked in, it felt like we took a set to the past. All the employees were dressed in really cool outfits! The place was HUGE! Lots and lots of seating! Super long wait time for larger parties from what I overheard! Completely worth the wait though. Highly recommend coming to check this place out if you're in town! read more

Went for The Squirrel Nut Zippers concert- which was a fabulous venue for that kind of band. While we waited to get in we looked at the menu posted outside and got excited for their vegan options. Come to find out they were serving a limited menu that only had like 3 items - so that was disappointing to find out after waiting for an hour to get in. Bartender was great and bathrooms were decent for a bar. read more

The atmosphere in this place was great, although this visit was a bit disappointing. Everyone in our group got their appetizers and food, finished eating it and then about 10 minutes after everyone finished, I got my baked potato. The gentleman bartender was great, awesome personality, the female behind the bar was very standoffish. Overall in the past, we have had great experiences here. This visit didn't cut it. Not sure if this will be on our list next time. The milkshake looked amazing! read more

We enjoyed dinner here after an evening stroll through the city. The restaurant is beautiful! They had live music which created a calm comfortable ambience. The food was delicious! Full or flavor , fresh and served hot. They did drop our grilled cheese on delivery and didn't know but they resolved it really fast. As a party of 10 I was impressed how I top of everything they were. Between the two burgers and soup I tried, the soup was my favorite ! read more

The atmosphere is perfection. We expected the food to be better, but unfortunately it was just ok. My fried chicken sandwich was the star of our lunch, but it was only a B. My husband's burger, ordered a medium rare, was well done. We didn't see a server for a while after we received our food, so he just ate it. The $4 up charge for sweet potato tots is so not worth a dime. They were inedible, but our server didn't ask how ANYTHING was so there wasn't any opportunity to change, send back etc. My fries were piping hot and tasted good for about five minutes until they cooled. After that, they were very mealy...you know how those taste. So very disappointed after hearing good things about this place. We won't be back here. Plenty of other places to eat in SA. Restaurants are crying the blues about costs, but don't seem to care much about quality any longer. I don't know about you, but until these establishments can show me they care about customers and quality, I'm going to be cautious about spending my money on a lunch costing $70. You? read more

Great food and great drinks! This location is always a good time but it gets busy!! If you are bringing your family in for a bite to eat, be prepared to wait. Sunday's in the fall are for football and being one of the fee bats that has multiple tvs for the games, the bar area is packed early and it gets loud. We ordered the chicken wings (crispy) with one order having the honey mustard sauce and the other having the whiskey bbq. The whiskey bbq is a little sweet so next time we may ask them to mix the bbq with the honey mustard or the regular hot sauce. They have a large selection of beer! My husband got the Kentucky bourbon ale and I opted for a cider as they had the Blake's peach party in the can and they also had mcKenzie's black cherry in the bottle. No cider on tap. Very large bourbon selection as well. We tried the stagg junior. read more

We enjoyed the atmosphere and the live music. The service was ok (server was attentive at first but then was gone for long periods of time) and the food was just ok. Everything took longer than what we expect at a restaurant. With many other options around I think the food and service need an upgrade. read more

Recently went on a road trip to several states. First stop was St Augustine. Atmosphere was very cool, like taking a walk back in time. Great vibe, with a lively atmosphere. Live entertainment was a bonus. Food was excellent, with very friendly wait staff. My only issue is parking which is very hard to find, but that seems to be like that everywhere in this town. Great experience, would definitely go here again. read more

Probably one of my favorite Brussel Sprouts I've ever tried. The smoked BBQ wings had a great flavor but definitely less BBQ than anticipated. Drinks were fantastic, however the water had a weird aftertaste. Service was quick and attentive, and the live music is fantastic. Overall a great choice to check out in the area! read more

My friend had been raving about Prohibition Kitchen for months. We drove a couple hours to go for her birthday and to say the least I was disappointed with the service and food. Before coming here be warned that you must be 21 and over after 8 pm (I believe so). So be prepared to bring your ID. We went near dinner time and understood there would be a long wait. It was about a one hour wait. There was a live band here so if you will need to yell across the table if you are seated near the front. Our waiter took awhile to come with menus and our appetizers took awhile to come. My swiss burger was juicy but very oily. The poutine fries were great. The pork and cheese complimented each other. The wait for Prohibition Kitchen was not worth it. The food was decent and the prices were ok for being on historic St. George Street. read more

What a fun vibe! My husband and I were drawn into Prohibition Kitchen because of their live band. Unfortunately we came too late for a sit down dinner, but they were still serving cocktails and apps at their bar. We loved their bartenders. I enjoy when recommendations are made and they take the time to explain their cocktail creations. We only planned on staying for a one cocktail, but wound up staying until they closed! We did get to try their German style pretzel with the ground mustard and beer cheese dip-YUM! The "PK Poutine" fries were also a hit. They are topped with a cheese sauce, pork belly, and chives. If you're in the area, pop in for a cocktail and stay for the live music! read more

The wait was an hour on a Saturday night so we opted to return for a late lunch/early dinner the following day, which was perfect. The restaurant was moderately full and there was great live music. The menu had so many things that we wanted to try so exercising restraint was tough! But, we did. We got the PK poutine app, the whiskey bbq burger, short rib grilled cheese, and grilled chicken strips for the little one. To drink, I had the cookies and cream shake and my husband did the "make your own old fashioned". The little one had pineapple juice. The kids meal came out fast, which is always appreciated. The chicken was grilled and very moist. They substituted her fries with corn with no issue. The poutine had smoked cheddar mornay, pork belly, sour cream, and chives. I would say that this was just ok. There was a large portion of fries and the toppings were not proportionate. Many fries had nothing on them. Our entrees were better than the appetizer. The short rib grilled cheee was excellent! The meat was tender and flavorful, there was plenty of cheese, and the bread was not soggy. With the peppers and onions, it reminded me of a Philly cheesesteak. The burger was also really good. I got the shake without alcohol and it was thick but not overly rich. Service here was good, as was the ambiance. We liked that they had a kids menu, which came with crayons and activities on the paper. The poutine left much to be desired and a $4 upcharge for what appeared to be frozen sweet corn instead of fries as the burger sseemed unnecessary. read more

We had an amazing time at Prohibition Kitchen in St. Augustine! The place has such a cool rustic vibe with live music that really adds to the atmosphere. They have a great selection of handheld bites and a few other main dishes. To start, we had the poutine, which was super cheesy and flavorful definitely a great way to kick off the meal. For my main, I went with the fried flounder burger, which was served with coleslaw on top, tartar sauce, and fries on the side. I swapped the fries for green beans, and it was perfect! The fried flounder was absolutely incredible (flaky, flavorful, and with the crispiest, most satisfying crunch on the outside.) I've literally been thinking about that burger every day since! With great vibes, live music, and a solid beer selection, Prohibition Kitchen is the perfect spot for a fun night out. read more

We came here on a Sunday around 1pm and surprisingly only had a 15 minute wait. Definitely a family restaurant with kids running around. Two story restaurant and had a singer live on this day. The bathrooms are dark but big. Our waiter Michael was so kind and on top of his service. He recommended a number of things and we ended up taking his advice and trying the strawberry buffalo wings as an appetizer. They were hot (temperature) and delicious, so crispy, the breading and the sauce were the highlights of this dish. For folks who like spicy, it was really spicy a little kick but nothing serious. My party also had the short rib grilled cheese, Mac and cheese, fries, flounder, and whiskey bbq burger. All the dishes were hits at our table, the garlic aioli and amount of meat on the grilled cheese were great. The flounder was HUGE and came on a bun. The whiskey bbq burger got with no French onions and was tasty, ordered some extra bbq sauce on the side. Fries are really good, Hot and crispy. Lastly we got drinks: Saturn, tangerine dream, and jungle orchid, which were all great and tasty. The jungle orchid was the only drink that didn't have a unique or forward taste, really light in flavor. read more

A blast to the past! Live Music Yummy drinks & lobster rolls & a milkshake bar! Great date night spot read more

This place was rocking! All of the people in St. Augustine was here at the same time lol it was so busy! Our wait to get seated was I believe was an hour but we explored around and walked and before we knew it was time for us to get seated. They had live music and a huge bar. We got seated upstairs which was actually nice because where I was seated I could see the ground and people from below. For starters, we tried the deviled eggs, fried pickles and brussel sprouts-the Brussels I've had better, they were made with a Caesar dressing or something and for the deviled eggs-they were different and good at the same time; made with aioli, breadcrumbs, pickled onions and I missing other things but I liked them. The star of starters were the fried pickles, they were delicious! As for my entree, I got the flounder sandwich with fries and ordered an espresso martini-martini was strong yet delicious and the flounder sandwich was good-nothing out the ordinary and yes I would get again I just took off the top bun to reduce me having so much bread/carbs. The fries were okay-mine were extremely salty but I kept eating them because I love fries lol nevertheless this place was good. The server kept telling us when and what they were out of which I can appreciate. Overall good place for drinks and food; music- I prefer San Sebastián winery live music singer better, this place felt like the music was geared more towards a certain demographic/audience. read more

We were here for dinner, and happen to arrive before the crowd, so we were seated immediately. The place is very large, have live music also has table on 2nd floor. I ordered their Super Bowl salad with steak, husband ordered their chicken pot pie. The salad is pretty good, but the chicken pot pie is ridiculously, it's like a puffy pastry put on a chicken stew. We also had their fries which is over cooked. The only thing good is devil eggs. The speed is fast, we were in and out very fast! read more

Shopkeeper suggested this place. It's an amazing experience. Well worth the 45 minute wait it's for supper. Sat at the bar, had a drink and waiting for the 6 PM music, which is well worth the visit in end of itself. The food is outstanding. I have the flounder sandwich french fries are absolutely fantastic crisp fresh out of the fire. Service is excellent and the music duo was so excellent. read more

Not the worst place, but not too good either. Place looks inviting, nice lighting, stage in the front. We were told 20 minute wait, my wife and I took a seat at the bar. Bartender was focused on a group of girls next to us. I understand that, so I can't complain too much on that. When he finally got to us he was a bit distracted and not focused, but he just poured a couple of beers, so not big deal. When we did get seated, it was at an intersection and there was lots of traffic. I get it, not a big deal. It took our server (Nicole) a little to get to us, but she was pretty good. Pleasant and competent. Ordered the Brussel sprout appetizer. It was different than most. The sprouts were a little hard and the dressing was a Cesar dressing that almost worked. Give it a 6.5 out of 10. The issue came when we ordered. I wanted the Short Rib grilled cheese. They ran out. I tried to order the Reuben, they also ran out. I ended up ordering the Bootlegger burger (with fried green tomato) and asked if they would wave the $2 upcharge for a premium side because I couldn't get the dishes I wanted. The server smiled and said she didn't think that would be a problem and asked the manager. She came back a few minutes later and said the manager said no. I was surprised and order the burger anyway. It was alright, I liked the fried tomato, but the bacon was a little under cooked. Burger was medium as ordered. 6.5 out of 10. Wife ordered mushroom and Swiss burger with non-premium side, regular fries. Her burger was a bit over done and the fries were nothing to write home about. A bit too salted for me. 5 out of 10. The music was ok at best. Nice background, mostly acoustic instrumental. Can't complain to much about that, but it wasn't outstanding. I did seek out the manager (Drew) after we paid the bill. I said I was a little disappointed that he denied my simple request to wave the $2 upcharge due to my disappointment with them being sold out of my first two choices. He was a bit rude and told me 'I'm sorry you feel that way'. I didn't make a big fuss, but I am disappointed. His reaction did prompt me to write this review and I hope I'm not the A-Hole here. I'd recommend any number of the other pub style restaurants on the beautiful St. Geroge Street area. NEXT DAY UPDATE: happend to be in the area and spoke to the general manager (Shannon). She was terrific. She Listened and very generously gave a gift card to the store where we promptly dropped another $50 :) read more

Over hyped, tourist trap! Poor quality, over priced food would be the tip of the iceberg. The restaurant has a funky smell you notice as soon as you walk in, it is accompanied by very humid air. The hostess had zero enthusiasm and definitely no pep in her step. I have seen more excitement at a deli counter. We were seated, and although the waitress was pleasant, she was MIA the majority of the time. She brought us the wrong drink, the order was not correct and although we were still trying to keep our hopes high they quickly dissipated when the bun for my husband's burger came out LITERALLY rock hard. This brought our attention to the lack of food quality. The bun appeared to have been stale before it was toasted. Is there no care, oversight or quality review of the food that leaves the kitchen? We brought this to the attention of our server when she came back around approximately ten minutes after the food was delivered (restaurant rule of thumb, check in within the first two minutes or two bites). She apologized and said she can get us a discount on the item. Ultimately the entire entree was taken off the check. Although it was appreciated not having to pay for a non edible item, it is not the scenario we were intending. We wanted to enjoy our experience, love and pay for our food, but that is not how it played out. Also, some health and safety concerns drew our attention during our visit. First, big red flag here, a bottle of mayonnaise was on every table, which sits out all day. Food safety 101, mayonnaise is to be kept refrigerated. The bathroom smelled of urine, how can a concrete floor be mopped and sanitized correctly. This brings us to the bathroom sink, made out of rock, yes another surface that cannot be completely disinfected. As if the tourist gimmick was not prevalent, the associate that comes by offering a complementary picture of you at the table eating, sealed the deal. We were not in a food eating competition, not dining on top of the Empire State Building nor were we attending a wedding. Is dinner really the venue to have your picture taken, just you, your family and the salt and pepper. Say cheese! Unfortunately, there was not one kind or saving grace of this experience. We were looking forward to our visit, it was one let down after another. Recommendation is to avoid! read more

Great atmosphere to parallel the service and food. Pretzel was excellent. Mushroom burgers and fries hit the spot along with the Guiness.

We ate here twice while visiting, but our experiences differed pretty wildly. After a long day in the car, we decided to venture downtown and find a place to get some grub and drinkies. We had no idea how busy this area gets during the holidays (woops). While we were waiting in line (around 6:30 on Saturday, Dec 14), the hostess announced that they were not taking any more walk up tables and were booked up on reservations for the evening. We tried our luck at the bar and ended up snagging seats pretty quickly. We hung here for a while & ordered dinner while being entertained by the bartenders and never ending line of orderers! We got the Mac & cheese with fried chicken and short rib grilled cheese. Both of which were excellent! They have a build your own old fashioned option and we both partook in that (post picture since I tried the Manhattan too). Every drink we ordered was expertly crafted, and tasted amazing. The second time we came, they were still busy but less so and we again sat at the bar. The bartender we had on Tuesday was a lot more green and not nearly as personable although they were less busy. We did the pretzel and beer cheese and a boozy milkshake, the milkshake was outstanding but the pretzel was very disappointing. The pretzel and cheese were coldish and left a lot to be desired. We were on a time crunch to make it somewhere else so we stuck to one drink and moved on. Seems like weekends are the better day to go. read more

I don't understand the hype of this place, or the two hour wait. I'm pretty sure it's the location, because I know it's not the food. lol Be prepared to wait 1-3 hours depending on the night.

Brady H. Was our waiter, and he was amazing. Very attentive to my husband's allergy needs and made sure our items were all in before the kitchen closed. The Violet Beauregard was amazing, I highly recommend it! As for the food it was super late and I was looking for something light so the cup of beer cheese soup and charcuterie was perfect! The table also ordered the deviled eggs which were fun and creative. The live music was good and the place was packed we had to wait about 49 minutes for a table. read more

We stopped here on a week night in the middle of winter. It was super packed with barely anywhere to stand by the bar. We asked if we could sit at a table, but they were booked for the rest of the night. The menu is cool with the front looking like a old magazine about the prohibition. Just from reading the menu I didn't feel compelled to order anything off the menu, even though I was hungry. Sure with prohibition in the name it is more a place people come to drink, but it still has kitchen in the name too. The food options should have been better, mostly just really basic restaurant food such as burgers and fries. Note: if you come to old st Augustine late at night you might as well order food here. A lot of other places that are open close their kitchens earlier. The drinks here were good. The bartenders did an excellent job and were working like a well oiled machine to take care of everyone in the establishment. When we were there they had live music. The band playing was awesome. Restrooms were actually really nice here. I recommend making a reservation. If it is this busy in the off season I can't imagine how busy it can get! read more

The location of the restaurant is extremely convenient, it's right in the strip but make sure you get there early their wait times are usually 1hr plus and they operate first come first serve. The food is nothing too crazy it's regular bar food I wish they had more food options to be honest. The ambience is definitely for the sports fans, there's TV's everywhere. Not sure if I'll go again read more
