OK...so it's backward.  We're going to start with FOOD instead of FUN.  Can't have FUN on an empty stomach!

Our favorites are in RED, but not in order of preference because each has it's own menu specialties.  Other eateries recommended by our friends and visitors are in BLUE . Restaurants with links to their websites are highlighted in YELLOW. Click on Directions for Google Maps. There are so many good restaurants in St Augustine that it's hard to list them all.  www.tastestaugustine.com has more opinions...click HERE for their website..There are a few we personally cannot recommend...feel free to contact us for our latest list of places where we wouldn't take our dogs for a meal.
