I was skeptical about going in there at first as their menu on line had no prices but I'm glad I went, I had the seafood platter fish, shrimp, clams, oysters, baked potato, coleslaw and heaps of it, it was all fresh and excellent, definitely the best seafood platter I have ever had, don't pass this place by and prices are very reasonably. read more

Didn't see this place pop up on any "best of" lists but had good recent reviews and it did not disappoint. Food was excellent, had no wait although our party of 11 had to split up between two tables. Everyone was very impressed by their food and debated eating there a second time while on vacation. Waitress was a little overwhelmed but still did well. Will eat here again! read more

Don't let the strip mall restaurant fool you. Mostly locals, fast and friendly service. We started with a dozen oysters, my husband got the blackened combination platter, and I ordered the fried oysters and softshell crab. You have almost a dozen sides to choose from and we also had their homemade Keylime pie, excellent! Don't sleep on this little local place! They also have about 6 fresh fishes daily. I posted our receipt as well to show how great their prices are. read more

Terrible food the calamari was chewy. There wasn't any calamari. It was just all rubber. The chowder clam chowder was just potato, thin potato soup with a couple of canned clams added. read more

The price is right at the Seafood Kitchen! We randomly found this spot when trying to find a lunch spot that served seafood by the beach. While there isn't a fancy beachside view... the price and quality of the food was worth it. We arrived in the late afternoon around 1:30pm, starving. Our server moved a little slow but got our food order in. The menu has plenty of seafood options for every eater to choose from. I ordered the scallops entree (lunch portion) for only $9.95 and it still came with a hearty portion of scallops. I also got mac and cheese and a side of jambalaya. The scallops were tender and perfectly seasoned. My sides were just ok, although I did enjoy the mac and cheese. For the price and for the quality, you just can't go wrong at Seafood Kitchen! read more

We come to St Augustine every Summer and this is a place we always come back to. Scallops are big and tender, melt in your mouth. Broiled shrimp are big and juicy. read more

The food and prices were so good, we ate here twice during our week vacation. It is nothing fancy, but the food tastes fresh and great! We loved the clam strips, crab bites, crab burger, clam chowder, crab legs, blackened scallop sandwich, blackened fish sandwich, grilled shrimp sandwich (sandwiches were really great prices for fresh seafood), hamburger, collard greens, cole slaw, hush puppies, etc....(we are a big family...LOL). The kids meals are priced really well and good portions. Would be 5 stars but the service is hit or miss. The first time we had a fairly friendly waitress, the next time we had a different waitress and she was much less friendly. read more

Great food at reasonable prices! The servings are large & delicious. Try the coconut shrimp.

I hate leaving bad reviews and it takes a lot for me to do so but this place struck out on all levels. The service was horrendous. We saw parties who came in after us get seated before us and waited forever for a table. We ended up snatching seats at the bar in order to be able to eat. This place is crazy unorganized. I watched employees run around without doing anything productive and did not bother to check on us at all. We didn't get silverware, a sides menu, refilled drinks, sauces, or anything that was supposed to come with the meal. I also watched them leave the top off of the New England clam chowder for over 30 minutes without putting it back on. This will not only cause the soup to be cold but also is unsanitary as the cover prevents at least some things from getting into it. The woman behind the bar was very sweet but completely clueless. She had no knowledge about menu items, drink offerings, or where anything was behind the bar. The food was okay. We had the calamari, steamed oysters, fried shrimp dinner with fries and a cup of chowder. The shrimp were alright. The fries weren't seasoned and the oysters didn't come with any of the normal fixings- cocktail sauce, crackers, or anything. We had to wait for the marinara sauce to be heated up to accompany the calamari and tasted store bought. The manager, or maybe owner, came out to see if we were doing okay. His clothing appeared dirty and looked absolutely disgusting with stains all over them. I also witnessed a cook come out from the back, crack a beer and then go back to the kitchen. Going off of google reviews, we thought we were in for a decent meal, however, we won't be back next time we're in Saint Augustine. I read more

amazing shrimp and platters. mostly locals and very reasonably priced. Don't expect a fancy experience, that is not what it is about.

From service to the food, it was 5 stars!! Our server was so sweet and made a great suggestion with our appetizer. The conch fritters were a hit! A plateful and very flavorful! For our meals, we each chose the Combo platter. Holy cow was it a lot of food!!!! Oysters, shrimp, scallops, fish and deviled crab (plus two sides!) all perfectly battered and cooked! Little did we know that two of us could of shared the one combo after having the fritters!! We'll definitely be back before we leave town! read more

This is a local seafood restaurant that has awesome food. Conch fritters were the best we have ever had throughout our travels. Fresh made coconut shrimp with fresh dipping sauce. Fresh fish. Scallops and shrimp on the platter. Staff was super friendly. Lola was our waitress and she was great answering all our questions. Definitely a place to come back again and again. read more

Ate here tonight. Food was disgusting. Clams overcooked, hush puppies overcooked, corn soggy, broccoli salad was drenched in mayo. The only good thing about this place is that they didn't make me pay for my inedible food. Waitress was not super friendly either. Won't be back! Also, don't bring your dogs here. They have dog bowls that look like this. Disgusting! read more

Our extended family had a delicious seafood dinner at Seafood Kitchen! It's nothing fancy, but the fried shrimp, oysters, scallops, and fish were fresh and cooked to perfection. Our server, Brooklyn, handled our boisterous and hungry group like a champ! The only two things that kept me from leaving 5 stars: they were out of deviled crab, so several of our group had to change their orders. Also, the smoked fish dip appetizer is a very small bowl and is served cold. That said, it was quite tasty! But, I was expecting something different. I will definitely go to Seafood Kitchen again! read more

1) service was amazing, the girl that took care of us was personable and attentive but not too over the top!! 2) food was incredible I got the blackened scallops and the seasoning was on point (not too heavy but there). Hush puppies were perfect, very light. The servings were pretty hearty and fairly priced. 3) the only thing I would take off for was the ambiance (and that's if I'm looking for something to take off for). It was a little loud and the seats were a little funky. Overall this was such an amazing find and we will be making this one of our regular spots 9.5/10 read more

Absolutely a hidden gem in Saint Augustine beach. In the most recent visit, blackened soft shell crab with a side of fried okra was outstanding. I love fried food, but have had too much over the years, seafood kitchen is accommodating to my requests regularly. The server staff are extremely polite and knowledgeable of the menu and always have recommendations if not sure what to order. read more

Super friendly, quick service, cute vibes and generous, delicious portions with decent pricing! Picked up a large order to eat on the beach with my family and every bite was delish! Would absolutely come out of my way for this place. read more

Wow! Best seafood lunch we have had for a very long time if not ever. I had black drum with shrimp special. I chose to have the of fish filet blackened and the 6 shrimp fried. Incredibly delicious and large portion of fish and shrimp were jumbo. My chosen sides were the broccoli salad which was served quite properly before the entree with green bean casserole. Both excellent as were the three hush puppies. $15.95 WHAT! Worth way more but don't tell the management. My wife chose fried soft shell crab which was also of good size compared to what we have been served lately. Perfectly cooked with a side of large cut fries all excellent as well. $10.95 Great value here as well. Awesome value on a faultless meal!! Our fantastic server was super friendly and quite professional. read more

Don't go for the ambiance but go if you want a ton of food at a good price. As much as I love seafood, I'm not all that good at telling when something is fresh compared to it previously being frozen. We ordered the seafood platter for two and it was just an unbelievable amount of food. You can tell them what you want fried, blackened or broiled. Be careful if you choose to eat outside. The flies are terrible and will nearly ruin your meal. Service not very good but I'd go back. read more

Best local seafood take out restaurant on the island! Love the fried shrimp & scallops. Very affordable.

We had dinner here and enjoyed it. It's cozy and cute and the waitresses are nice and friendly. The food is good but average. Better the Captain D's and close to Red Lobster. You should try it because it's a nice place to eat and go for a reasonable price. read more

Our first time in St Augustine and we definitely chose a "winner." Fresh oysters in half shell, chilled seafood sampler and gator tail were all fresh and delicious. The location is just off A1A, the place is clean and the service was fast and efficient. Did I say, reasonably priced with large portions. Will recommend to friends and a must when we visit St Augustine again! read more

We have been coming here for years and it is always so good. Unfortunately last night was a horrible experience. This restaurant isn't exactly known for its cleanliness but this visit was especially disturbing. Our table was so shaky we couldn't even put our arms on the table. The floor and menus were sticky. We ordered raw oysters for appetizer and they were absolutely delicious. My husband ordered the fried combo and the scallops were so rotten they actually fizzed in his mouth and tasted like pure ammonia. It made him so sick he couldn't eat any of his meal. My food was good but our experience was ruined. Our server was wonderful but no sign of management anywhere. It'll be a very long time before we're able to return here. I hope they clean it up and replace some tables. It's in bad shape. read more

Thoroughly disappointed with this meal. Having gone to St Augustine for years, I've always wanted to check this place out. I would not recommend it to anyone. The peel and eat shrimp was barely edible. It was completely flavorless, which was surprising considering the shells were doused in Old Bay. Even attempting to use cocktail sauce and warm butter didn't help. Definitely wouldn't recommend. Ranch dressing for salad was essentially mayonnaise. Gross! Attempted a wine vinaigrette in place of the mayo and the top came off into the salad. When we advised the staff, we were told, "yea, that happens all the time". So now I don't know how many peoples fingers have touched that thing that's now been in my salad. The hush puppies were good. And soft shell crab sandwich was average, a little overdone. I would opt for another spot if you're seeking seafood. read more

One of my favorites. Love the broccoli salad and the fried shrimp. Best onion rings we have found in the area. Service is great and fair prices. read more

What? I haven't reviewed this place yet? I loved this place! I came here with my sister, brother-in-law and my mom while visiting the beach area. We were feeling like seafood so we went here on the recommendation of my sister and had a perfectly delicious lunch. They offered a few specials with all of the trimmings (i.e. shrimp and oysters plus two sides and hush puppies for $10.99). I had the shrimp and it was perfectly cooked along with my steak fries (I had a side salad to start). Ask for all of their sauces. I recommend the New England clam chowder which had crab in it. It was very tasty and I could certainly finish a whole bowl by myself. Plenty of menu choices and I loved the hush puppies! Overall, our one waitress did a pretty good job running the place as the restaurant had quite a few customers while we were there. You can tell they were regulars that patronize this establishment which has been around for some time: 20 years....It's a good sign. If you want affordable seafood done right with large portions, skip the Quarter, head to the beach and come here. It's where the locals eat, but they probably wanted to keep that a secret. read more

If you want a bang for your buck you will not believe the piles of food you get for your money. We ordered the seafood platter for two and it came with four sides. HUGE. Very inexpensive. My husband loved it. Ordered it blackened as I won't eat fried food and it came loaded with FRIED hush puppies (6) of them - boxed FRIED frozen clams- FRIED oysters possibly frozen- lots of shrimp very oily and scallops- BIG piece of TILAPIA- the broccoli slaw was old as well as the cole slaw . I did not like that it wasn't good unfrozen local seafood but that would have been double the price. Next time I would order something different that was not so greasy and fried. The boxed fried clams were really tacky on this platter. Service very good. read more
