    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!

    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.

It got pretty busy while we were there, but impressively, they were running with just one server--and he absolutely held it down.

The menu is where things get especially interesting--unique, playful, and definitely not your standard fare. I tried the chicken apple pie sandwich, which was as unexpected as it sounds. It was fun, different, and surprisingly good! It is one of those dishes you won't find just anywhere. Husband loved his upscale bologna sandwich and the waffle fries were yummy! Overall, Treylor Park delivers on atmosphere and creativity. It's a great spot if you're looking for something a little outside the box with a fun, energetic vibe and memorable food.

Now let's talk food I ordered the shrimp and grits tacos, and WOW--they were packed with flavor. The grits added this unexpected crunch that worked so well with the shrimp. The textures blended perfectly and made every bite interesting. My husband went for the Miyagi beef tacos... and let's just say there were zero leftovers. He cleaned his plate, which says everything. Great vibes, creative food, and a memorable experience all around. Definitely a spot we'll be coming back to!

Therefore, this gets a long wait for breakfast/brunch. It's hard to get a parking spot but there's free parking across the street. They have a big waiting area next to the restaurant which is definitely needed as we ended up waiting like 45 minutes around 9:30 am on a Saturday. The food was definitely worth the wait though. I got the burrito smothered with sauce and cheese and the flavor was fantastic. Flavorful but not super spicy or anything. It's also HUGE. Highly recommend. Service is a little questionable, if it was quicker they could probably help with their long wait. It was hard to flag down our girl when we needed something & it took ages to get to check.

The service showed a real lack of knowledge and attentiveness. When I ordered whole milk for my coffee, the response was essentially "is half and half okay?" -- no, it is absolutely not okay. These are completely different in taste and calories, and it's not a reasonable substitute to casually suggest. What made it worse: oat milk, almond milk, and whole milk were all visibly sitting in the fridge right there from where I was seated at the bar. Zero effort to offer what was clearly available. The atmosphere didn't help either. The space feels like someone started building a café concept and never finished thinking it through. It's uninviting, disorganized, and oddly off -- not warm, not designed with the customer in mind. Nothing about the food, the presentation, or the space gives you a reason to choose this place over anywhere else. Not particularly tasty, not nicely decorated, not a vibe. Not sure what keeps people coming back, honestly.
