"A neighborhood family-style pizza shop vibe. An older lady was at one of the tables cutting fresh basil. The man behind the counter was very friendly.I ordered the lunch special, 2 slices, and a fountain drink.Finally, a New York slice. Very good."

"This is the pit stop for tacos that you've been searching for!! The owners are so nice, and the food is amazing. Always fresh and delicious! I got the yummy street corn, burrito and chicken tacos. All three were so good and I order them every time I go!!"

"My sons 2nd birthday was today and he has an egg allergy. I was having trouble figuring out what to do about his cake since most contain eggs and vegan cakes are hard to find. We decided to try an ice cream cake but most places still use cake with their ice cream cakes. I called Baskin Robbins and Amaya helped me out. She got in touch with Amber and confirmed that she could get an all ice cream cake created just the way I wanted. Amber did a great job with it and everyone including the birthday boy enjoyed it. I'm so thankful that they were able to do this for me especially on short notice. Thank youAmaya and Amber and Heavenaya. I really appreciate you guys helping make my sons birthday great!"

"There are not enough words to describe these cookies! OMG delicious!! This is my 3rd time trying Crumbl and the chocolate chunk is my go to. I mean look at the chunks in this cookie. When you walk into the store the young man behind the counter describes in detail what each cookie of the week is. I knew going in what I wanted but listened to him anyway You can order a single cookie , a box of 4 , 6 or 12. Run, don't walk to your nearest Crumbl store!"

"Placed an order on Grubhub for pickup. The food was ready by the estimated pick up time. Ordered the Drunken Noodles, Panang Curry, and Thai fried rice. My wife, son and I enjoyed our meals. Mine was the spiciest I believe I got the medium. All in all it was good and filling. Will definitely be back to try some other things on the menu."

"I have waited until our 4th visit to review this restaurant. This is a new Italian restaurant in Ponte Vedra Beach, owned and run by a Bonafide New Jersey Italian named Vincenzo. Vincenzo has a passion and a lot of heart for quality and service. Like most new establishments, there are operational start up issues with the staff and process that must get worked out. They have improved tremendously since our first visit. The food was excellent. Everything is freshly made. This evening we ordered fried mozzarella appetizer. I was expecting the typical sticks that the restaurants buy and drop in the deep frier. We were pleasantly surprised when the waiter brought out what was clearly homemade fresh fried mozzarella! It was excellent! The red dipping sauce was fabulous. We ordered as main dishes Chicken Piccata, the Italian Stallion Stromboli , and spaghetti and meatballs. All dishes were very, very tasty. The Stromboli in fact was the best I've ever had! Our waiter was very good but was overwhelmed with the crowd (reinforcements finally arrived to help him out) so our service was slow, and the food took awhile coming out. Those around us seemed to be getting served faster. It happens. The environment was comfortable and not too loud to have a normal conversation. So for this review it's a 5 star for the food, and the service on this visit was a 3 to 3.5 stars. They are improving with every visit. We definitely recommend Vincenzo's. They have a variety of bottled and draft beers, as well as multiple Italian wines. Give them a try."

"First visit here and definitely not the last. We were greeted with smiling happy faces. The restaurant felt like we were at the beach. The food came out quickly. The Zion Bowl was amazing. Perfect mix of heat and sweet. Cajun fries were pretty good too. Can't wait to go back and try some tacos."

"Hubby was in the mood for a homestyle Italian food place and he came across Joe's. The entrance for indoor setting was pretty tight where only 1 person could get through. Otherwise, there are booths and tables that can accommodate any number of customers. Lots of wood and brick walls adorn the restaurant. Our server, Rosa, brought out a basket of deliciously warm and yeasty bread. The aroma, taste, and softness was delightful with a crunch from the crust. Yum!Hubby loved his meal, which was plentiful and hearty. I had the traditional baked ziti and it was so delish! Everything was prepared in a manner of down home authenticity. Soooo good!! There was a welcoming atmosphere and didn't rush. Our order was provided in a timely manner. Dessert was just as good! If you get the opportunity to check out the place, give a shout out to Rosa! She was great!"

"Food was good and fresh. The service was quick and very polite, and I enjoyed my croissant sandwich on the outdoor dining patio. Very clean and quiet. Menu is a bit pricy but overall enjoyable. Really want to try a smoothie on my next visit. Would recommend!"

"Croissants, guava & cheese pastries, avocado toast, chorizo breakfast and coffee was amazing!! Service is fast the young lady behind the counter is excellent!!!! This is a must try if you want to avoid downtown st Augustine traffic. Restaurant is super clean. I have become a regular here!"

"There's not too many late night spots I'm willing to get out of bed for when I'm hungry .. Mr. Snappers is an exception to the rule here!The menu ranges from chicken to seafood, they've even introduced fried rice with your choice of pairings. I keep things pretty basic with their seafood platter. In said platter my choices are usually chicken wings, chicken tenders and Tilapia. There's nothing like getting that trio straight of the grease with fries and some of dusted lemon pepper seasoning ... EXTRA seasoning please!The service is always spot on, especially late at night. If I happen to get off early from work, my first stop for a "snack" is Mr. Snappers. The closing time of 3am makes it that much more convenient to satisfy my cravings for some fried chicken or fried fish. If you want fresh, hot food, that's open late .. give Snappers a try."

"Clean, modern, nail salon. I dropped in after yoga next door. Happy they could take walk-ins. Got a wonderful pedicure and wax. Calm here. Family who owns and runs this salon is so kind and skilled."

"For a merely $28, we ordered the following, shrimp fried rice, cream cheese ragoon , pork fried rice, small wonton, chicken with garlic sauce and egg drop soup. Ordered and took less than 15 mins for them to cook! The owners are super sweet and are very accommodating. The cream cheese was by far the best I've had , lightly sugared on the wonton wrap and deep fried to perfection. Egg drop soup was not dense and you can taste the flavor! Add some black pepper if you want a little extra flavor.Shrimp fried rice was your normal, nothing to out of the ordinary."

"Always love the pizza! V pizza never disappoints and always has something new to try! I love the new look of San Marco, much more welcoming and ambient"

"Beautiful! So pleasantly surprised with this spot - the atmosphere, both indoor and outdoor, the food, the service, the cocktails - will definitely be back."

"I was unexpectedly on this side of town and found this gem. Every bite was amazing. We had the beef stew and the oxtail. I will be making a special trip in the future to try some mote of this day island love"

"The service was good - the food was pretty blah. There were 5 of us - we had 4 different orders - 1 was salad (no complaints) but the other 3 were disappointed."

"Whenever we visit our college student, we go here. Period. End of story. It is not a fancy place but the food is great and the staff is friendly."

"4.25 Really good food and service. Seated right away on a Thursday night around 6:45.Daughter had the shrimp app as her meal (super good) and a side of macaroni and cheese.I had the Mojo Salad with brisket- only a couple pieces of fat which is to be expected. Otherwise lean and flavorful. Cucumbers, tomatoes- both crisp and fresh. Yummy jalapeño cornbread croutons. Huge salad- became two meals.Missed happy hour, but they offer a great one with beer and mixed drinks, plus some seasonal drinks."

"We stopped by Treylor Park for lunch and were so glad we did! The menu offers familiar entree items with unique flavor twists. I ordered the PB&J wings and the Miyagi Beef Tacos. My curiosity about peanut butter and jelly wings drove me to order them, and they were a hit! The wings were incredibly flavorful and crispy, with a perfect balance of salty and sweet. The tacos were also substantial, filled with seasoned meat and plenty of toppings. Our waitress was super attentive and friendly! I highly recommend trying this place out!"

"This business has been around for almost a decade - from what I understand - and I just happened to stop in for lottery tickets and (initially) some fountain drinks because it looks like your average convenience store.Then....I smelled PIZZA cooking so I moseyed towards the back and found the other owner/cook/chef and of course, I ordered a few slices of the various flavors offered here. Everything was delicious!!!They have a full menu of pizzas, subs, samosas and more! Look forward to trying more when in the Palm Coast area. Wonderful owners and customer service!"

"Delicious and juicy polish kielbasa, perfectly seasoned veal sausage and great NYC hot dogs! Family owned business with a great customer service. Apple cake reminded me of my grandma's cake."

"Dreamette is the stuff of legends--a Murray Hill staple that's been serving up happiness since, well, practically the dawn of time. (Okay, maybe not that long, but long enough to perfect the art of ice cream.) First things first: bring cash! This charming time capsule doesn't do plastic, and honestly, that's part of its old-school charm.On a humid Florida day, you'll likely find a line stretching out front, but trust me, it's worth it. Think of it as the universe's way of making you savor the anticipation. When you finally get your hands on that luscious, creamy goodness, you'll realize it's not just ice cream--it's an experience. Even the pickiest ice cream snob would have to admit: this place is the real deal.Seating? Let's just say it's not Dreamette's strong suit. But who cares? There's a few tables but we grabbed our treats and embraced the tradition of driveway ice cream. There's something about eating ice cream in your car or perched on the bumper that makes it taste even better. Bonus: no judgment when you accidentally wear half of it on your face.A word of caution: your eyes may be bigger than your stomach. These portion sizes are not for the faint of heart. That "medium" cone? It's basically a dairy skyscraper. Go ahead and challenge yourself--you're living your best life, after all.If you haven't been to Dreamette, do yourself a favor and get over there STAT. Your taste buds will thank you, your diet will cry, and your soul will be very satisfied. Long live Dreamette ice cream!"

""The bagel-eating people are probably just not bagel people." This is what I thought to myself after reading reviews. Very mixed. I went in with an open mind and pretending not to be a bagel person. Before I get to the bagels, I was second in line. The first guy in line (older golfer-looking dude named Art) said, "Two onion and two everything."No please, thank you, nothing. Then he couldn't figure out how to use pos system (credit card machine/pos=point of sale). First he tapped button too fast. Then he held it down too long. Poor guy. I was entertained. Then I got them bagels and brought them to my car as if holding a secret. I ate them bagels and they were ... a 3.8 each (of 5). There's a hint of taste, and you hope there to be more taste to come out of nowhere with the next bite, but it just never happens. I can't recommend or advise against. This place falls into No Man's Land. It's ok."

"They used to have a taco truck on the outside called La Perla (if I'm correct) but now it's integrated within the store in that plaza across the street from the 7Eleven off of Lenox and Lane. I remember one of my friends talking about how good the taco truck was but I've never had to try them out. I finally went to check out this place and it's like a little hole in the wall. It's worth checking out in my opinion. The variety of meats for the tacos are full of flavor. I got the al pastor, lengua, and asada the first round and I eventually came back for some more al pastor and lengua alongside some chorizo since they didn't have it the first time. You can't ever go wrong with authentic tacos, simplicity with a flavorful kick is what you need! The red sauce has the perfect kick to it. Not sure if it has habanero or what, but it does tend to get spicier as I eat it. The verde sauce is on point too. I'm very biased towards verde sauce tho. I love the tart but spiciness combo. They do get busy on a Friday night and it was a bit of a wait but I'm not so sure about the weekend's occupancy though. The only thing I had an issue with was the lady never called for me for both my orders so I truly didn't know how long I was waiting the first time there was just me and another guy but the second time I was waiting for awhile until I decided to go up to the counter. However I hope it won't be a consistent issue. I think they just need a number system or something to know when your order is ready."

"Came here on Mother's Day for a lovely dinner, the first time for my family. Dee was our server and she did an excellent job!! The service was great, we had 6pm reservations and some items on the menu were not available such as the roasted chicken, sea bass, or the fish special of the day. We were very happy she informed us. The food was delicious and we all had an excellent time. The valet was also an added bonus. We will definitely be back in the future. Thanks so much to the staff at III Forks, it was a wonderful evening!! Please give them a try and ignore the negative reviews from bots and spam."

"Early dinner for us, we arrived at about 545p on a weekday and were seated immediately. Our server, Jay, took our drink orders while we took a look at the menus. We ordered sushi & 4 hibachi entrees. They were large servings. I barely finished my chicken hibachi entree, because I was full from Sushi (both rolls were tasty!) We all really enjoyed our dinner and will be back soon! Thanks for the great meal, service & atmosphere, Otaki!Side note: the parking lot gets crowded. Especially during the day."

"First time in St. Augustine and we decided to do a local visit to Arnold's. The average price of a meal around town seems to be $20 we found out Arnold's has a Ribeye steak dinner with corn, green beans and a baked potato for $14.99. We made out way in and sat at the bar. The place was pretty full and several people were just drinking and chatting. There was only a couple of people that could serve and it was still great service. We ordered our drinks and we ordered our steak and met some pretty awesome people while waiting on our food. We never have met so many friendly people in our lives. Once our steaks arrived we both were extremely surprised with the size and the flavor of the Ribeyes. We didn't need any sauce and the temp was perfect. Our drinks were always kept full and the company was awesome. This is a local joint and the atmosphere is laid back and fun."

"It was time to chow when we stopped at Cultured Collective to give the new (to us) nano brewery a try. The food truck for the evening was Aunt Greg's. We always like to try/share a few new things so ordered the Mexican Street corn, pork+ covered tators and the chicken sandwich to try. I'll have to say the balance of flavor to heat was absolutely perfect. The food was temp. hot and will definitely find him again. If Aunt Greg's is at Cultured Collective again it would be a double home run! Check it out!!!"

"Cool spot for some good food and tasty cocktails.They have a nice outdoor dining area that's perfect when the weather is nice out. Outdoor dining area also has access to the bar.Service has been fine on all my visits and the staff is friendly and accomodating. They do get busy sometimes so be patient.When you're done here, check out Grace Note Brewing next door :)"

"Had an awesome "Miami style" Cuban sandwich for lunch today. They were parked right outside of my work with a few other trucks but this one stood out most due to the giant tater tots on the side of the truck. For $10 the sandwich was a good value compared to other trucks that can run you between $15-$20 for lunch. It came with a side of fruit but if you'd like l tots it's $2 extra. I've heard the tots are amazing but I haven't tried them yet. Will definitely be back next week - someone told me they are usually out there on Tuesday's by the VyStar parking deck on Hogan St."

"Newest obsession. Happy hour is a must! You'll get a wide variety of tasty options without an outrageous bill at the end. The service is phenomenal. I love asking the staff what their favorite items are take it from there. You'll notice simple things like the way the staff all walk with one hand behind their lower back, stood straight, without slouching. They work together making sure every table is satisfied, not just their own. It's quite nice. Subtle but noticeable if you're a people watcher like myself. Although it's called "the boat house", and it's not on the water...the moment you walk in you feel the presence of an airy, light space as if you could imagine it was in-fact over looking water. I have zero complaints and plan on making it a new favorite spot of mine! Ask for a side of the hamachi style sauce. It pairs well with EVERYTHING !"

"Met a friend and fellow yelp elite here Saturday morning. We both tried the seasonal peppermint latte and got a baked good to pair with our hot caffeinated beverage as well. Upon ordering, the staff asks if you would like your pastry heated up (I loved this) yes of course; please and thank you. Very much appreciated as we went from summer temps last week to winter temps overnight (no fall) We picked a table in the open, spacious dining room area to sit and wait for our coffee and baked dish. The food and drink arrived at a decent time and both were hot. The seasonal peppermint beverage was not very peppermint-y at all but honestly it was still good. I was hoping for more of a seasonal outcome but the latte still hit the spot. My banana bread was good. Nothing outstanding but again it's banana bread. I would order it again. As we sat, the coffee shop got more and more busy. Seems like this establishment has good chi and flow! One major downside: parking. There are maybe 6 spots to the side of the shop. I got there when it wasn't busy at all and yet there was still zero parking. I checked the lot behind the building and they had some spots but was unsure if it was safe to park there without getting towed since that is a separate business. I ended up making my own spot after circling the place twice not knowing where to park without getting towed. When it was time to leave, 1985 was packed. I noticed someone made their own parking spot right behind my car blocking me in (giant black suv) Thankfully my friend gave me a ride to our next destination which was close by. After an hour, when 1985 had just closed for the day, we went back to check on my car and it was not blocked in anymore. I would definitely recommend this coffee shop but strongly suggest carpooling if you can."

"Crystal and I read about this place on a Facebook foodie page. Crystal's a native Pennsylvanian and takes her Philly cheesesteaks seriously. Surfwiches offers steak and chicken Philly sandwiches, hoagies, hot dog (not your Oscar Meyer dog) with toasted New England style buns, ruebens, and burgers. No fries (I was surprised by that) but they did have Pennsylvania authentic Herr potato chips. The place is in a small, run down strip center and the restaurant looks a little rough. DO NOT LET THAT DETER YOU!We split a steak philly with cheese and onions, she got mushrooms and I refrained. It was served piping hot. It smelled so good that we didn't waste a moment and dove right in. We both forgot to take pictures! We'll go back again. Next time maybe a hotdog!"
