    Salmon
    Tania C.

    Location was great. We stopped by to had some dinner on a busy Saturday. Place looked nice and we decided to sit outdoors. Food was good. We had some salmon and Risotto. Maybe both a little on the oily side? But they tasted good. Ambiance was good with lovely music in the background. Service started good but went downhill. We didn't have utensils and napkins or water refills, when our food came. Manager offered us free dessert or drinks for the oversight. We didn't want any that night, so I guess is good that management wanted to apologize. We kept having not too great of a service during the night. Well, if you are in the area, you might consider stopping by and have an experience of your own. Hopefully yours will be much better. Happy dinner!

    First of all, I want to thank my boyfriend for choosing this restaurant to celebrate my birthday. The atmosphere and the terrace were amazing, and the food was excellent--we'll be back.

    Service and atmosphere were fantastic! Our server (I believe his name was Caleb) was so friendly and helpful. He helped us narrow down what we should eat a few times! I ended up ordering the bacon, egg and chorizo waffle sandwich. It was good but I wish it had felt a little more up scale. The vibes of the restaurant are so nice and intimate, but the food felt a bit commercial. I enjoyed my sandwich a lot but next time I would probably try something new.

    A Disappointing Valentine's Day Experience I always try to give a restaurant some grace on Valentine's Day, knowing it can be one of the most challenging nights of the year for service staff. However, our experience at Sainte-George Restaurant in St. Augustine left us unimpressed--not because of the holiday rush, but due to poor coordination and disappointing hospitality. The Good: Let's start with the positives. The food itself was solid. I had the filet mignon, which was decent--nothing spectacular, but well-prepared and served with carrots and potatoes. While the price wasn't the best value, it was reasonable given the setting. Naomi, the bartender, was the highlight of the night. She was friendly, efficient, and handled our order with professionalism. The Issues: We had a 5:30 PM reservation and were promptly seated on the outdoor patio. Normally, this would be a pleasant setting, but at 60° with wind, it was far from comfortable. Our hostess mentioned she would bring water and be right back, yet 10 minutes passed with no service--no water, no server, nothing. Realizing it would be too chilly to enjoy the meal, I went inside to ask if we could be moved. I was told there were no available seats inside, but we could sit at the bar itself--not at the bar-side tables, as those were "reserved." We opted for the bar, making the best of an uncomfortable situation. Then came the frustrating part. Throughout our meal, we watched multiple walk-in customers--without reservations--get seated at the very bar-side tables we were told were unavailable. Even more frustrating, two couples who sat at these tables quickly left after seeing the limited menu or high prices. It was disappointing to see tourists given preferential treatment over a couple with a reservation. Final Thoughts: For a $90 per person experience, we expected a more seamless and professional dining experience. Instead, we encountered disorganization, poor communication, and an arbitrary seating policy that seemed to prioritize walk-ins over reservations. While we are locals and always on the lookout for great restaurants in St. Augustine, we won't be returning to Sainte-George. The area is filled with fantastic dining options that offer both better service and a stronger value for the price. If you're visiting and looking for a memorable meal, I'd recommend exploring elsewhere.

    Four stars for the ambience! The service wasn't that great and we're a little disappointed that our drinks weren't refilled. It took quite a while for someone to come by to take any orders, but she tried to rush the kids meals. I think the waitress tried her best but she never really came around. The restaurant is quaint and beautifully decorated for the holidays. The food was portioned pretty small but it was good. The bar is pretty upstairs as well but the restroom needed a little TLC. I like the location though, easy to get to if you're already on St. George street. Try it if you're in the area though if you want a nice meal.

    I thought I had left a review for this place when we had dinner but I don't see one so let's drop on for brunch. First off the upstairs and outside seating is awesome. Really great view. Plenty of open seats but it is a Friday at lunch time. Great sounding choices. Got a bowl of the mushroom soup. Pretty tasty but it didn't knock my socks off. Missing something. For main we had the Thai noodle salad. It was ok but like the soup it seemed to need a little something more. Maybe more sauce. Over pretty good food with great views. Nice to sit and chill.

    I made a reservation about three weeks in advance for Valentine's Day. We arrived a few minutes before our scheduled time and were seated at an outdoor table on their upstairs balcony. After we were seated, no waiter came around for about ten minutes. It was a cold and windy night so my husband went down to the hostess and asked if we could move down to the bar area instead. She said yes, but only to be seated at the bar and not a table. We were so hungry that we agreed to sit at the bar. While we ate our dinner at the bar, we saw other diners come in with no reservations and get a table in the bar area. Poor customer service from both the hostess as well as the upstairs waiter. The menu offered 3 appetizers, 4 entrees and one dessert option. I had the lobster pasta and my husband had the filet mignon. The food was fine.

    The world's worst and most overpriced nachos.
    Nicky W.

    Went today for the happy hour menu and could not have been more disappointed. We ordered mojitos, which were fine but nothing special, and nachos. The nachos were absolutely horrible - plastic cheese like the movies and stale chips. We could not believe that any decent restaurant would serve them. We voiced our disappointment to the waiter twice and he was apathetic. We were charged $12 for them. Whoever put them on plate and sent them out should be embarrassed.

My husband wanted to order additional beverages, but it took quite a while for our server to return. The ambiance, though, was lovely. The patio, strung with lights, added a festive, holiday charm to the evening.

The combination of imaginative cocktails, exceptional food, and a unique atmosphere makes every visit memorable. The cocktail program is outstanding. We enjoy trying a variety of their exotic and inventive drinks, and they never disappoint. The flavors are bold, creative, and unlike anything you'll find at a typical restaurant bar. The Yellow Submarine cocktail is quite possibly the best drink I have ever consumed. Made with curry-infused Bermuda black rum, lime, ginger, and Asian five-spice brown sugar syrup, it sounded unusual on paper but came together beautifully. I enjoyed it so much that I ordered four of them that evening, something I rarely do. That was three years ago, and despite returning several times since then, I have never seen it on the menu again. The food is equally impressive. Two years ago, I ordered the Skillet Roasted New York Strip served with Yukon Gold potato-anna, roasted asparagus and spring onions, watercress, and black truffle hollandaise. To this day, it remains one of the top five restaurant meals I have ever eaten. Every component on the plate was exceptional. The steak was perfectly prepared, the crispy potato galette was irresistible, and the black truffle hollandaise elevated the entire dish to another level. It was the kind of meal that stays with you long after the plate is cleared. I would gladly drive 300 miles just to eat it again. Most recently, I had the wild mushroom bisque, and it was the best soup I have ever consumed. Rich, creamy, buttery, intensely mushroomy, and perfectly balanced, it was everything a mushroom soup should be. The addition of crispy pickled onions and crème fraîche added texture and contrast that made an already outstanding soup even better. My wife and I enjoyed it so much that we returned the very next day hoping to order it again, only to discover it had already rotated off the menu. My only complaint about The Ice Plant is that some of their greatest creations seem to disappear as quickly as they arrive. While I appreciate the constantly evolving menu and understand that seasonal changes are part of what makes the restaurant special, there are certain items that deserve a permanent home. The Yellow Submarine cocktail, the wild mushroom bisque, and the Skillet Roasted New York Strip with black truffle hollandaise are three of the finest things I have experienced there. The fact that I can vividly remember one of these items from three years ago and another from two years ago says everything. Great restaurants serve good food. Truly special restaurants create dishes and drinks that stay with you for years. The Ice Plant has done that for me more than once, and that is why we continue to return whenever we visit St. Augustine.

Antique, rustic, comfortable, and full of enough character that you almost feel like you've stepped 200 years back in time. Then the drinks arrive, and suddenly you realize you've been transported into the future of cocktails. I wish I could remember the name of the drink I ordered because it was spectacular. Whiskey, a little sweetness, mint, and crushed ice. That's about all I can tell you. What I can tell you is that I could have happily consumed about 30 of them, tumbled down the stairs, and been perfectly happy about the whole experience. My wife went with the Mojito, and it was brilliantly constructed. The crushed ice and layered mint made it look almost too good to drink. Almost. The drinks absolutely deserve five stars. Then came the blue crab beignets, and they were spectacular. That's the kind of appetizer that makes you stop talking for a minute because everyone at the table is too busy enjoying what's happening. Unfortunately, the rest of the food didn't quite live up to the cocktails. The fish dip was very average and lacked much flavor, and the menu itself felt pretty limited. So here's the deal: if you're coming to The Ice Plant for drinks, I would have no problem giving it five stars. The cocktails are that good. This is a highly recommended stop for a drink in St. Augustine. But I have to review the entire experience, and the limited menu and average fish dip bring the overall experience down a notch. Four stars. Come for the drinks. Stay for the atmosphere. Definitely order the blue crab beignets. And if you happen to find yourself three cocktails deep, admiring the antique decor while contemplating the stairs, maybe just take your time.
