Best Casual Restaurants in St Johns

Everything was perfect—from the service, to the ambience, the cocktails, and the food. This was our first time trying their food, and I could not have been more pleased. It was fresh, quick, and delicious. Highly recommend. One of my new favorites in St. Augustine.

Excellent service and food tonight. Great atmosphere, every table taken, that's also how you know this is a great restaurant. Thank you so much to Damien our server for your kindness and professionalism. Best Restaurant we have eaten at in St. Augustine.

For a Monday evening it was max capacity likely because of the St Augustine nights for lights. We were seated within 5 minutes of the reservation and the food was excellent as usual. The waiter despite having multiple tables was on the ball and the service was excellent.

The food at the new Chophouse is outstanding. Our steak was cooked to perfection. A 6oz filet was $48 and I upgraded to a surf and turf for $64 ($16 extra to add a lobster tail I found reasonable). However, it costs an $6 to add a sauce for your steak (I had green peppercorn au poivre because the chef won’t offer Bearnaise as an option). For that price, I think a side sauce should be included! My dining partner added a baked potato for $12 (“loaded” with a dollop of sour cream and a tablespoon each of cheese and bacon). Our $60 bottle of Cabernet was out of stock so we were encouraged to try an $80 bottle (which was actually $84 when the bill came). Overall, the dinner was amazing but the price point a bit high for Nocatee. A happy hour bar menu would be a nice add, as well as my favorite steak sauce Bearnaise).

Great restaurant in the middle of the historic district of St. Augustine. Loved the old house feel. Server was always available until the end of our meal when we needed to leave for an event. We had to bypass coffee as it was taking 30 minutes for dessert and coffee. The staff was exceptional. The meal cooked and served excellently. The ambiance might have been better with a different table. We were seated in a small room in back by the black curtain where staff continued to go back and forth. I would suggest when you make a reservation to see if you can get into the main dining area.
