Their food is great. Specials always great. Good burgers beer and wine. Staff are great! Service is spot on. Ambiance is kinda bar/restaurant and very nice.

Datil pepper sloppy Joe special
Jesika K.

We really enjoyed our time here. My husband had the datil bbq and I had the special sloppy Joe and I was really pleased with it. Our service was really good and they pack a lot into their small space. It's 100% worth visiting!

10 Piece Boneless Wings
Laurie V.

Went for lunch with hubby This place was highly rated so we wanted to check it out. The restaurant is located in a strip mall and not very big. It has a full bar and also features different breweries. Hubby ordered the pretzel appetizer. He also had the Philly chicken sub with fries. Which he said was good. I had the boneless wings which was the special. The wings were tasty but reminded me more of chicken tenders than wings. I had them put the sauce on the side. Not sure if we will return.

Prime Rib Sandwich w hot dog bun!

Prime Rib Sandwich was supposed to be on a hoagie roll, instead they used what appears to be a hot dog bun. When I asked the waitress, she lied and said the bun is the norm. I just checked photos on Yelp, it definitely not the same bread. Huge disappointment.

"Good Vibes, great bites!"
Eva-Tanja C.

Our dinner at The Press was a delicious blend of comfort food and classic favorites. We started with the lightly breaded calamari, which was crisp on the outside, tender inside, and perfectly seasoned. The breading was light enough to let the fresh flavor of the calamari shine, and the grilled pineapple added just the right touch. For the main course, my husband went with The Conquistadore Burger--juicy, well-seasoned, and stacked with bold toppings that created a rich, satisfying bite every time - this burger won best of St Augustine. I ordered the Steakhouse Burger, which was equally impressive, boasting a smoky, savory flavor that paired perfectly with its hearty toppings. Both burgers were served on house made buns and came with one side. Service was prompt and friendly, and the relaxed atmosphere made it easy to enjoy the evening. By the time we left, we were already talking about what we'd try on our next visit. Rating: -- A great spot for a casual meal with food worth coming back for. Food: 5/5 | Service: 5/5 | Atmosphere: 5/5

I didn't order this burger but had to take a photo!! Staff said it's called the vanquisher.
Jennifer C.

We will find any reason to drive 95 miles to St Augustine just to be able to grab a burger here. Lunch or dinner, it's all good! And it's not all burgers... check out the menu there something for everyone. It's a small establishment with amazing staff & fast chefs. Seating is mainly inside with a few casual tables outside the front entrance. Establishment is in a plaza with shared parking.

Steakhouse Burger and the Conquestidor. Burger!!!

From the delicious pretzel and beer cheese and homemade fried pickles For starters - then the burgers were amazing!!!! To top it almond the white chocolate bread pudding was AMAZING! And all served by our wonderful waitress Audrey! Great job! We will be back for sure!!!

Mushrooms n onions on the side
Theresa B.

Traveling, he drove past it while I ck on yelp,looked good so we turned around. Got there around 5, not a big place. Sam the bartender was welcoming and made my man happy with a cold Amstel Light, his fav! I got the chicken corn chowder, nice n hot with a kick to it. Prime rib sandwich was good, could have used more meat. He enjoyed the salad that came with it and the mushrooms (for me ) n onions on the side. When we were leaving the place was filling up. Definitely would go back, pictures do not do them justice.

Seafood pot pie
Stacy S.

If I could give it more stars I would. This place hands down rocked my world! I had the filet mignon, with grilled veggies and the most amazing shrimp and lobster cream sauce and my husband had seafood pot pie. I can't wait to come back to this little gem.

Prime Rib Sandwich
Christine G.

The Press is a cozy spot in a strip mall. We had to make reservations for this small place, otherwise we would not have been seated. Food was good. Portions were large and the service was good. We were interested in trying the large pretzel with the cheese sauce. So yummy. For entrees we had the goat cheese and spinach flatbread, the el Cuban, the Cabernet mushroom and Swiss burger, the prime rib sandwich and side salad. The burger was really good, but I don't care for Swiss cheese. It seems you can't ask for substitutions here. However, I did like it regardless. The day we dined had a dessert special of Key Lime Pie for $5, so look for that on Thursday nights, if available. The portions were good but overall I thought the prices were fair considering the quality of ingredients. Everything was very fresh and well prepared. We had a really good experience here, but you must make a reservation if you want to sit in dining area.

Chipotle beer cheese flatbread.

Wow! The food is incredible. Their signature burger is absolutely incredible and different. Steaks are great. Good flatbreads. Deserts looked incredible going by. Service was great. Food cake out pretty fast. Very unassuming ambiance.

Bread pudding try it you will love it

Ask for the gravy on the side. Exceptional dish! Their drinks are also really good. The bartenders know what they are doing. You won't go wrong with any cocktail, a glass of the house whiskey, or just asking them to get creative for you. Service is always excellent. Professional, friendly, attentive. Very well run. And the location is really cool - an old ice factory turned into a restaurant. Its industrial setting goes with the vibe.

We walked in around 12 o'clock on a Wednesday afternoon and was able to sit at the bar with no challenges. Bar area is open seeing if you want a table you do have to check in. I started with a handmade Italian soda the ginger one and I love this because the ginger is very pronounced. It's very crisp and light. I also got an order of their soup of the season, which was a red curry. It was absolutely delicious. Had great flavor little spice at the end of it as well. For lunch, we split the fried chicken that comes with collard greens and whole cakes. The collard greens are by far one of the best that we have ever had. They use slab bacon and they're absolutely delicious. We've literally talked about them for years and they were just as good as we remembered. Fried chicken was nice and moist and the hocakes cakes were very sweet. For drinks, I tried one of the seasonal ones which was the witches of Eastwick. The gin based drink definitely was sweet, but exactly what I was looking for. My husband got an old-fashioned because they had black walnut bitters when he was really excited about.

I am visiting from out of town and, after hearing so many rave reviews, was excited to get to visit…read morethe Floridian tonight. We were seated in a large dining area with soft lighting. Our booth was next to a wall with several paintings containing various sailboats. As I looked at the menu, I realized there were several tasty looking options. The burger had pimento cheese which sounded AWESOME. Man. My mouth was watering just thinking about it. Came with a free side too. But another menu item caught my eye. A dish called the "N'Waffles." This is where things took a sharp turn. I began going back and forth in my mind - weighing the potential pros and cons of each dish. The burger was, well, a burger. And the "N'Waffles" was cornbread and meat with ricotta. Sounded a bit more novel maybe? The waiter came back, and, when I am trying to decide between two things, I always impulsively order one of them at the last second. Before I even knew what I had decided, I heard "N'Waffles" coming out of my mouth. No one talks about how weird it feels to say that word out loud, by the way. I asked the waiter if I should get chicken or pork BBQ. After hesitating for a second, he said the pork. So, I went with the pork. He walked away, and I was flooded with regret. Should I have ordered the burger? Should I have got the chicken? Could I track down the waiter and revise my order? Instead, I silently accepted my fate. As I was waiting, I felt a foreign object in my eye. I blinked and blinked but to no avail. I had to go to the bathroom three times to try to rinse it out. Each time, I accidentally bumped into the table of this couple sitting next to us. Nice bathroom, but not great lighting for trying to get something out of your eye. Never did get it out. The "N'Waffles" arrived at our table. I looked down to a pile of meat on a waffle, all covered in copious amounts of sauce. I mean no offense to the institution, because I actually like it, but it did not look appetizing. It also smelled like a wet dog. I grimaced and tried to remain positive. My stomach growled as I thought about that delicious burger...pimento cheese...green tomato..mmm. But that's not what I was eating - I was eating a pile of meat drowned in sauce on a cornbread waffle. Listen. I know some people like stuff like this, but it's just not for me. Even though I had something stuck in my eye and I had slop on a waffle for dinner, I still had a great time. The waiter was nice. They were playing some good indie music which I appreciated. I liked the sailboats on the walls. And I bet that burger was gooood. All in all though, I left a bit disappointed. Disappointed, but determined. Determined to learn from my mistakes. Listen kids, don't second guess yourself. Go with what your gut tells you first and don't change it. This is true for multiple choice questions, relationships, and food choices. You know what you want more than you realize. And maybe don't order something called the "N'Waffles." I would still recommend this place. You should totally go.

They recently reopened in…read moretheir new location, and the space is beautiful -- stylish, welcoming, aesthetically gorgeous, and just full of great energy. The service was excellent, and the food has that fresh, thoughtful, farm-to-table feel where you can tell care is going into what comes out of the kitchen. For me, one of the biggest highlights was how seriously they take gluten-free dining. I had warm, made-from-scratch gluten-free biscuits with pork belly and a peach bourbon jam, and oh my goodness -- absolutely to die for. Everyone at the table enjoyed them. It is not often that you find a gluten-free biscuit that feels like you are getting the full experience rather than settling for an alternative. I was also impressed by how many gluten-free options they offer. Even their po' boy can be battered with rice flour. Our waiter explained that the chef is gluten-free and that they are very mindful of guests with celiac disease, including separating food preparation when needed. That level of care is a huge plus. And it wasn't just the gluten-free food that impressed us. One friend ordered the meatloaf sandwich and received a seriously hearty piece of meatloaf. My husband had the BLT with pimento cheese on thick sourdough bread, and it was excellent. We also heard that the chicken and waffles, offered during dinner, are a must-try -- so that may be calling us back! The cocktail menu was another win. The drinks were creative, original, flavorful, and clearly thoughtfully crafted rather than just the standard options you see everywhere. Everyone in our group seemed genuinely happy with what they ordered, which says a lot. Beautiful atmosphere, excellent service, creative drinks, fantastic food, and some of the best gluten-free options I've come across. Five stars all the way. I would absolutely return to The Floridian and work my way through more of that gluten-free menu!

They are open for breakfast and it's open to the public sounds like it's under $10 and is basically all you can eat. Following breakfast they close for a brief time and reopen for lunch and dinner.

Wife and I arrived around 4 and other than a couple of people getting drinks we had the place to ourselves. So our food came out of the kitchen hot (was like having your own chef prepare your meal). I had the jerk cheese burger with fries. Came with bacon and all the fixings. Served on a toasted bun. My wife had a combination of chicken and beef tacos. Came with chips and salsa.

It is basically a hotel breakfast buffet in TRYP hotel (which looked really nice). The restaurant area is open to the public. We were able to park, walk in, and eat breakfast without any issues or questions. The buffet is a little on the smaller side, but it has more than everything you need. It was absolutely perfect for us even though we choose to avoid 80% of the available options. From what I remember, the buffet had scrambled eggs, cheese omelets, bacon, sausage links, sausage patties, bagels, muffins, cereal, milk, fruit, yogurt, water bottles, and much more. The fruit was individually packaged and located in a "take what you want" fridge with the yogurt, water, and I think there were some other things in there. We were also offered coffee. We accepted and were thrilled when this amazing Italian coffee arrived (Lavazza). It was some of the best coffee I have had in a long time. The service was also impeccable. We had two incredibly nice ladies waiting on us. They kept our coffee full, encouraged us to eat more, offered to bring us juice, kept the table clear, told us to take water bottles with us on our adventures, and more. They were so sweet. For $10 each, we left with full and happy bellies and water bottles for our trip. We will definitely be back the next time we are in town.

O.C. White's Seafood & Spirits -- Historic St. Augustine Charm & Fresh Seafood!…read more We had a wonderful dining experience at O.C. White's Seafood & Spirits, located in the historic Worth House dating back to around 1790. The waterfront setting and lively outdoor patio make it a great spot to enjoy a meal while soaking in the St. Augustine atmosphere. The patio, surrounded by jasmine vines, is especially beautiful when they're in bloom. Parking is also available for diners. As foodies, we tried several dishes, including the Coconut Shrimp, Blackened Mahi Mahi featuring the fresh catch of the day, and the Floribbean Fish Mahi with Caribbean spices, pineapple, mango salsa, roasted peppers, scallions, plantains, rice, and guava sauce. The combination of sweet and savory flavors was delicious. The Shrimp Abaco Saute was another standout--fresh shrimp with garlic, mushrooms, tomatoes, and artichoke hearts in a light garlic cream sauce. We finished with a refreshing Key Lime Pie, the perfect ending to the meal. The service was warm, friendly, and attentive. Between the fresh seafood, historic setting, waterfront views, and relaxed atmosphere, O.C. White's delivers a memorable St. Augustine dining experience.
