    SO and I stopped here for lunch on our way to St. Augustine. The burger, chicken and waffles and oysters made for a nice meal. Bottom line, the food and service were good.

    Very cute laid back restaurant in Ponte Vedra! Interior gives a clean coastal atmosphere. I got the grouper tacos and was underwhelmed. The breading had no flavor unfortunately. I did love the pineapple salsa that came on them. My boyfriend got steak and eggs and he loved his dish. The menu looks promising and has other dishes I'd love to try!

    - Sunday Brunch ... excellent ... must return and take others! - Friendly & welcoming hostess - Great footprint - large outdoor space & bars with TV - Bathrooms clean - Servers - great! Friendly and attentive. - Mgr on-duty less than attentive and failed to deliver a customer request (off-duty Mgr was very gracious & checked in before she left) - Food very good! Great recommendation from server. - Lots of variety and pricing not too bad compared to area competitors - Fee for using credit cards (I actually had a minor medical issue before leaving and they let me lay down in a quiet area for a few minutes - couldn't have been kinder!) Appetizer -- fried blueberry bread pudding with goat cheese, granola, strawberries and purée and basil Meals - Beer battered grouper sandwich with fries & a fig with arugula salad with fried chicken.

    Don't let the outside of the building fool you, the local is an absolutely stunning spot. They have a large wrap around patio with a bar and music set up. The space inside and outside is just beautiful. The outside space is very warm. They have ac coming but right now it is almost stifling hot. The staff are very friendly and welcoming and the food is delicious.

    Stopped in and grabbed the tuna nachos real quick. So delicious with big chunks of tuna. They were doing construction on one part of it, but the decor and vibe in there is very cool. Very chill. The decor is unique. Our server was very friendly when we ran out of time and had to take our food to go in rush out to make an appointment.

    Just opened & doing it right. I think I may even like this better than the Atlantic Beach Local, and so much closer to home. Decor is bright crisp and clean. The outside bar area is a great space. I noticed what looks to be a band area outdoors. That would be great to have live music. Our server Dawson was engaging, helpful & efficient. Shaun filled us in on the secret to the amazing blueberry bread pudding. This is where I say " Eat dessert first." Our appetizer of hot honey chicken was super moist and delicious. Grouper tacos were also yummy. We upgraded the fries to truffle fries. That was the only disappointment, No flavor. They need improvement for sure. Wine was reasonably priced by the glass & many options. So excited to have this new addition to the area. Stop on in & see what it's like to be a Local.

    I don't have all the answers to life, but I do know the Hendrix, Burger and espresso martini at the local is one of them. Hands down the best burger and martini in the area. This is my go to at the local and it never disappoints! I've had the hummus ceviche a few of their bowls and salads, but I always go back to the burger. I feel like I formed a slightly unhealthy love for this meal. My service is always great. I love sitting at the bar and the ambience is wonderful. It's very nicely decorated and sometimes they have live music on the patio. A great local spot. ;)

    I was their first customer.

    Just opened today (10/14/2025). Been waiting for a while for it to open. Beautiful new place with indoor and outdoor seating and a bar. Had chicken and waffles with two eggs over easy. Delicious. Service and food was excellent. Shout out to Brina for taking good care of me. Outdoor seating has music on weekends. I'm going back for happy hour.

The menu was thoughtfully curated, the ingredients incredibly fresh, and each dish beautifully executed. Having lived in the San Francisco Bay Area for over 40 years--where exceptional dining is the norm--I was genuinely surprised and impressed by both the quality and creativity of the food here. The service was equally outstanding: attentive, warm, and seamless without ever feeling intrusive. This has instantly become my new go-to when hosting guests. It's the kind of place you can recommend with complete confidence--you'll never have to apologize. In fact, I'd go as far as to say the experience felt Michelin-star worthy. Argyle was, quite simply, shockingly fabulous."

    We went to Nona Blue over the weekend to grab a drink and some dinner. When we arrived it was…read moreslammed for Easter Sunday. We wound up luckily getting a seat inside. Our server was super nice and attentive. I got a dirty martini and my husband got a beer. My dirty martini was made well and had blue cheese stuffed olives. We also ordered an appetizer, they're blue cheese chips, without chives. They came out super quick, I think maybe 2 minutes. For the price of their blue cheese chips, which is very reasonable, you get a TON, covered and smothered in blue cheese sauce and a balsamic drizzle. The chips were housemade saratoga chips and were crispy and delicious. For dinner I opted to order a Greek side salad and a loaded baked potato. The Greek salad was good, but I wasn't a huge fan of the red peppers in the salad. I'm not a huge red pepper fan or peppers in general. The baked potato was stuffed and delicious, full of bacon, sour cream, butter, and cheese. It was delicious and huge. ($8 for a baked potato is a bit high IMO). My husband got the plain jane, which he really liked and my kiddo got the kid's penne pasta with marinara and a club soda. He finished his meal and really liked it. We'll be back.
