    We have drove by oasis every time we come down to Butler Beach vacation. We finally stopped in to watch college football and had a great time! Our server was super sweet and we ate most of the appetizers with amazing amazing nachos. Highly recommend this place for family or friends. Can't wait til next time we are in the area. Must stop!

    This place was a major let down. My husband had been looking forward to getting a "bucket" cocktail the whole trip. Cut to our last night (8/24/26) and we decided it was time to check off the last thing from our to-do list before going home the next day. When we walked in there was a sign instructing us to sit wherever, so we sat downstairs on the left side of the building and a waitress brought menus to our table. I told her we were only there for buckets & snacks and asked if we were in the right area or if we should be at the bar. She seemed friendly and told us we were fine where we were. We ordered 2 buckets (coco bango & goombay smash) as well as loaded fries, onion rings, and fried mushrooms. The fries and onion rings were pretty good but the mushrooms were really watery in such an unpleasant way. The ambiance in there was a little strange (tons of loud TVs, dark, and kinda sticky feeling) but maybe just not my cup of tea and that's ok. Where things got weird was with the waitress. After giving us our order, she never came back to check on us even though I saw her walking around giving other tables their checks and hanging out in the back room. We had also been done for quite some time and hadn't gotten our check. I finally had to flag someone down and have them find her, even still, it took forever for her to come to our table. I would be more understanding if this place was remotely busy, but it was dead, so there's no excuse. I get that working in the service industry can be challenging but the bare minimum (checking in on your table and bringing them their check promptly) wasn't even met here. Again, sucky end to our trip and a major disappointment. Good thing there are tons of other amazing places we can go to next trip instead!

    I was forced to come here to meet some friends. I think I would have liked to gone to Beachcomber instead but here we are. I ordered the crab sandwich It was pretty good but not much flavor It did come with lettuce tomato and onion and I also ordered extra tartar and red sauce. We ordered the broccoli cheddar soup and it was good. They ordered conch fritters and they were horrible do not get them they taste like nothing but flavored bread. The smoked white fish dip was good. There were eight of us. But the food came out pretty quickly. Our server was friendly and attentive. We set upstairs. Front parking and back parking dirt parking lot. Place to go if you're in a pinch and need a quick lunch.

    Salad as side dish
    Rebecca L.

    The food was so good I first ordered shrimp salad bowl, but the shrimp is cold, so I switched it to fish platter. Best decision! The fish is basa fish, kind like catfish. I never heard of basa fish, never had it before, but it's so tender. Love it. I had two sides, broccoli and salad. Broccoli was over cooked to me, salad was good. Hubby had whaler sandwich with one side, onion rings. He was impressed with both, said it was the best onion rings and whaler sandwich he had ever had! The restaurant is old Florida style, not a fancy place. But we like the charms of this place. Lots of outdoor seating, perfect if you come with your fur baby. Oh, they even have doggy menu, how thoughtful! The service was good. We asked for a to go cup for unsweet tea, the waitress gave us a fresh cup! Oh, you pay less if you pay in cash!

    Food was good service was not so great, server was not very attentive it took 20 minutes to get beer. beer coming late was not main problem she was standing around the whole time when restaurant was not busy at all dancing in the back kitchen just not very on task. very cute beachy restaurant though.

    Oysters Oasis

    Started our vacay with lunch at Oasis. Solid place with good food and great service from Nikki. Our choices ran the gamut. Kids had hot dogs and naked wings with french fries worth stealing from their plates. Fish dip came with tortilla chips and carrot sticks and was a nice serving size. Oysters are usually served after 4pm but on the weekends available after 11am luckily for us. We had the Oasis which were crispy and tasty and very fresh raw oysters. The blackened fish tacos were enough to share with the table. The crab Benedict was so good we ordered an extra crab cake. We sat upstairs surrounded by TVs that had every sport you could think of even ESPN20 showing a marble race!! Something for everyone. Oh, and the beer was cold and finished the meal with creamy key lime pie.

    I liked this place a lot. It's a two floor local little dive bit with great lice music on the second floor , awesome food and drinks and the service was quick and easy! It's definitely a place to hang out for good food and drinks with friends and family !

    We loved this bar. We were here on my Birthday and had a real good time winding down our night. The locals were so nice, as usual (very St. Augustine-good people). The bartender was friendly and quick even though it was a crowded Friday night. We did not have food, but the look and smell of the food sat near us for others was very tempting. We had several beers and a birthday shot made up by the bartender (Girl Scout Cookie). It was really good, and I loved spending the end of my birthday here. We will definitely be back on our next visit.

    Conch Fritters

    Shoutout to our local community heroes!!! Not only is the food amazing, but I feel in love with all the people- the owner Jan is such a sweet Spirit! I was blessed to meet her at her warehouse during the SUPER SCENIC 150 MILE GARAGE SALE event on 11/15/25. I bought so many treasures! The staff here at this venue was the most valuable treasure find!! Tom in his bright yellow t-shirt and even brighter happy Spirit welcomed us from the parking lot and showed us all the many seating options. There's a huge inside dining area, a counter top eating area, a huge sports bar seating area upstairs, and a huge outdoor seating area... dog friendly patio complete with water bowls. We enjoyed the perfect outdoor weather and sat in the warm sun. Nikki was tasked with keepin' us between the navigational lines here on our first visit. She is amazing, kind, personable, and genuine! She gave us TLC and made sure we had a wonderful experience. A cold Yuengling and a Guinness to wet whistle and cruise us into as we had a generous portion of golden brown conch fritters and a bowl of hearty clam chowder. Yumm! Then I had peel and eat shrimp! They were big and sweet! So Perfect that even Bubba Gump would have approved! I had a side of cheesy grits!! ProHubby had a blackened fish sandwich! It was masterfully prepared and so well balanced! We were so full, but Nikki was accommodating me with helping by not letting me pass -up taking a piece of homemade key lime pie! Which was a hit!! My husband is from Florida and this pie is legit! We were informed about the Saturday garage sale by the accountant. We also had a cool discussion with her about the upcoming Thanksgiving buffet. They have already had a lot of response and they are excited about this first time celebration with the community. This will definitely help with the need for this type of opportunity to gather. The next morning we camp for breakfast and the garage sale. Nikki told us that several breakfast/brunch items are available until 2pm almost every day. That is cool to have that option! This morning we were again greeted by the amazing Tom and since we brought our big cane corso we enjoyed the patio again. Tom gave her a dog treat and a water bowl. She loved it! We were taken care of by the Joelie. She was warm, happy, professional, and attentive. I of course had to order biscuits and gravy ... yummy biscuits and sausage gravy and I ordered a side of savory links! Hubby had awesome steak and eggs and grits!!! The were easily consumed!!! Generous portions! The coffee was great!! The even have a Dog Menu!!!! We ordered our Belle a beef patty and an extra biscuit!!! She made fast work of it and devoured it!!! Two paws up to the chef!!! I was able to get a good morning hug from Nikki who was busy inside with all her happy patrons!!! This is going to be a regular spot for us it appears! Tom even said, " We will see you again, right?" Yes, Tom, we look forward to our next visit :)

    Portable AC unit

    What you get for what you pay for it's stupid. $12 for eight fried mushrooms small mushrooms.. my Mic ultra taste like it's skunked which means been in the sun and then in the cold and then hot again.. There's no good vibe here whatsoever as advertised and truthfully, there's nothing special about this place at all except overpriced food for below average food. The people that work here aren't exactly pleasant to be around. This will never happen again. We're still sitting here waiting for our main course and worse than that. I ordered the chicken finger basket and just found out. It only comes with damn chicken fingers only... I had to buy fries extra!! I've never heard of that entire life!! a basket is exactly what it means chicken fingers and fries or onion rings.. This is my first time the last time ever coming here... don't listen to the people who post five stars or four stars because they're full of shit and they probably work here.. The AC is a really Worker either there's AC unit right in front of our table portable!! DONT EAT HERE! Shop for food instead!!

    Wheeler sandwich.. One of the best fish sandwich I've ever had
    Mark B.

    The World Famous Oasis is on A1A convenient for us. It claims to be a tiki Hut type restaurant but I didn't really see any tiki Hut.. hahaha. Anyway, there was clearly a lot of fish on the menu. They also have a breakfast menu. I had the whaler sandwich which had cheese and two types of peppers, sauce and lettuce. It was excellent. One of the best fish sandwiches I've ever had. I would come here again if I'm in the area.

    Trivia, Great Food, Service at the World Famous Oasis. Tuesday...every other and every Thursday. Fun time
    Yellow R.

    We always enjoyed the Oasis. Very casual and decent food, and young servers that try to please. This time, it was good again with adequate portions and nice choices on the beer. The big disappointment was the Chardonnay wine that I ordered. It was old, spoiled, and undrinkable. My partner tried it, and felt the same. Our waitress took it back, and brought another one and while it was a tad improved still undrinkable. The only time this happened before were Chardonnay discounted bottles at Walgreens, or a glass at a Chinese restaurant. Barefoot is a house Chardonnay to be considered. Open bottles should be refrigerated. Please check your house stock. Something went awry. On the positive side, no charge, and the Diet Pepsi was refreshing. This is one strike in 40 years.

    I was visiting from out of town and was craving seafood. I'm so glad I chose this spot because it…read morewas perfect! The weather was beautiful so my daughter and I sat outside. There was a live band playing cover songs and that was super fun listening to. There is a big fire pit in the middle, and the outdoor area is spacious. I ordered the seafood boil to share with my 5 yr old daughter and we both loved it! Service was great, no complaints at all. I had one drink , the linen drink which was gin based- it was delicious. Great spot, would love to go here again and bring my husband next time we are in town!

    We just returned from what should have been a nice dinner and are still trying to wash the taste…read moreout of our mouths. From bow to stern (nautical theme here) this was just a bad experience across the board! Our waiter had zero personality and acted as if he really didn't want to be there, the food was bad, and the cost was far more than the value provided. A rainy Sunday night and not very crowded - maybe 4 - 5 tables, but somehow our food managed to get lost in the kitchen and we waited way too long for food that was (in my case) completely inedible. My wife ordered the fresh catch halibut dinner grilled, and I ordered a blackened grouper sandwich. Both entrees were heavily salted; my wife tried to wipe the seasoning off her filet, which was at least decent sized. My sandwich contained the thinnest, saltiest piece of fish I'd ever been served, and I only managed a couple bites before giving up. My wife's filet wasn't fully cooked, and since we weren't eating sushi-grade fish, my wife was concerned about that. When she told our waiter he barely glanced at her plate and his response was "That's cooked. Some people are just finicky about the texture." "Finicky??" Are you sh**ing me?? How about saying "I'm sorry, would you like me to have it cooked more?" She also pointed at my sandwich and said that it was so salty I couldn't eat it, and all he said was "I'll be back." At least he didn't tell me I was being "finicky". The manager came over shortly after and explained that our server told him we weren't pleased with our meal. My wife explained the issues and his response "Too salty? I know who that is. One of our guys over-salts a lot. I'll talk to him." He then apologized and offered to get us something else, but I declined and said I was done. He vaguely pointed at our food and said he would "discount it". While we waited for the bill my wife took what was left of her fish to the house cat sitting on the patio, and the cat wouldn't even eat it! I'm sorry Mr manager, but if you know that one of your employees has issues with preparing food correctly... either educate them or replace them! Don't apologize and admit you're aware of bad food coming out of your kitchen! And then the topper - our bill came and a whopping $13.50 was discounted from almost $90! He didn't even take off the full cost of my sandwich which was still sitting on my plate! We usually try to give benefit of the doubt to restaurants, but this experience was bad enough that we both agreed we will NOT return. This is a prime example of why zero stars should be allowed!

The crab bisque fries were crispy and the bisque tasty. The lobster ravioli was SO good. I usually do not like cheese with seafood but this worked perfectly. It was creamy, savory, slightly sweet from the crab and shrimp cheese sauce it comes in which perfectly complemented the very stuffed lobster ravioli. The fish and wedges were really good too. Fish was meaty and crispy, wedges tasted roasted instead of fried and the coleslaw was creamy, crunchy and sweet. As a bonus, the tartar sauce was good too. Our server (Josh?) was very attentive, polite, friendly and quick. The menu isn't huge but I would come back if I'm in the area again. There are some coupons available as well for lunch in those travel pamphlets at the hotels.

Now that we've officially moved here, we've been back about three more times, and somehow I love it more every time. If you enjoy seafood and New Orleans-style food, this is definitely a place to put on your St. Augustine list! The service has always been good, the drinks are great, and yes, there's usually a wait, but honestly, it goes by pretty quickly. We typically grab a drink and hang outside while we wait for our buzzer to go off, which makes the wait feel much more enjoyable. I have a few favorites here that I find myself coming back to: Redfish Alexandria, absolutely delicious and one of my favorites. Andouille Crusted Grouper , another standout if you're looking for something flavorful and seafood-focused. My first choice now that the low country pasta isn't available Crab Cakes, always a good choice for appetizer. Low Country Pasta, this was a special during their Mardi Gras menu, and I was SO SAD to find out it wasn't a regular menu item because I would order this all the time! My first choice And please save room for dessert because the fried Oreos are a MUST-TRY! For drinks, you really can't go wrong, we've had a few of their signature drinks, but the Cucumber Martini was one of my favorites. Refreshing, flavorful, and definitely worth ordering! The restrooms are conveniently located both upstairs and downstairs. Parking in this part of St. Augustine can be a little difficult, but that's pretty typical for the area and definitely wouldn't stop me from coming here. Overall, Harry's has become one of those places we're happy to keep coming back to. Great food, fun atmosphere, good drinks, and plenty of New Orleans-inspired seafood dishes to choose from. Definitely worth checking out when you're visiting St. Augustine!

For the seafood feast, we ordered scampi style and it was good, but it reminded me of a clam sauce style, not really buttery and garlicky. It was still good, but what disappointed me was the melted plastic bag served at the table. It was difficult to open, even our server had trouble opening. Idk why everyone loves serving food in plastic bags. It's sooo hot from the steam that plastic leaches into the food. I don't get the infatuation with this, unless you're ordering to go. The fans upstairs are a nice and necessary touch and not too hot up there, despite being summer in July. I would go back and order the stuffed flounder again! Seriously, that was the best thing we ordered. Ashley was johnny on the spot too!
