"V Pizza is our go to family pizza spot. The manager, Florio, is the best. He always makes sure we have a great experience. We try not to miss any of his kids pizza classes. Highly recommend if you are looking to indulge in some yummy pizza with the very best ingredients."
"Excellent food and service.Catullo's is head and shoulders above any other Italian I've had in this area. The Pear Fiocchi is delicious and the citrus olive oil cake was a great desert. Good place for dinner and incredibly friendly / engaged staff."
Fiocchi translates to little purse in Italian. Fresh egg pasta sheets stuffed with fresh pear, taleggio, robiolo and grana padano with a caramelized pear, Gorgonzola and goat cheese cream sauce, finished with fried prosciutto DI carpegna.

"This pizza is absolutely delicious. The place is super cool and the guy behind the counter is even cooler. It's clear I think that he owns the place because he certainly cared a lot about how people enjoy the food and the environment. I heard this place was awesome and it did not disappoint"
"First time here at Taverna ever and we went for Brunch! The ambiance and atmosphere inside was so cute & cozy (leftover from Christmas) and our server was engaging and kind. The burrata, meat and fig spread were a yummy start....the only dislike was the side of eggs tasting like they were swimming in pesto and barely tasted any egg but all in all still a delicious brunch. I will definitely be coming back for dinner!"
"The food here was nice, it's located in St Augustine. We had to wait a long time for our table because this place gets packed but we were seated outside and once our server came our food order was put in fast. The food portions are good and tasty. Overall good Italian food and cozy ambiance"
"I lost a bet to my husband and this was where he cashed in his winnings. However, I basically won too! Food is a 9.8/10. Always delicious. The seafood combo with angel hair pasta is my go to. The holiday special drink biscotti martini was delicious and sweet. The espresso martini was good. They don't make it with real espresso but the cold brew works too. Service was spectacular. We sat at the bar. Ambiance is amazing. The piano man takes tips and requests. We requested some Frank Sinatra."
"Awesome place! I am so happy I was able to try it, food was fresh and good. Prices were good too nothing over the top. Our waitress was great so attentive and sweet. Our appetizers were the mozarella sticks and the caprese salad. The caprese was a win for me aside from the balsamic dressing it had pesto on it! Super good accompanient. Inside it like a house vintage cuteness. I ordered a Chianti and it was delicious, food was delicous give them a try!"
"Came here for a quick bite before heading to a show. I've been here before, but it's been at least a year since I visited here.We arrived and were greeted and shown a table. I decided to order a lemon drop. Our server was pleasant, told us the specials, and then we looked over the menu.So upon looking at the menu, I will say prices are a bit high in my opinion. Personal 10inch pizzas started at $15 and it cost an extra $3 to add pepperoni. We opted to split, we share the meatball app and a margarita pizza with pepperoni.The meatball app was good. The meatballs were well seasoned as were the saucesMy lemon drop was good and came with a sugar rim.The pizza was good, small, but good.Will I Be back? Probably. I had my eye on the pumpkin risotto."
"First time visit and Had a fantastic experience with Mackenzie M! We friend and I took a while to decide what we wanted and she was attentive and helpful with suggestions and answering questions. Environment was clean, food was absolutely amazing, service was attentive and kind.Will definitely be back!"
"We really like Tony D's and have tried a variety of items like NY special, meat lover, taco pizza, and various pasta dishes. The food is really good and staff very friendly. While their New York style pizza is great, husband's favorite are their pan pizza (Grandma and Sicilian). I really like their wings (Cajun ranch and garlic parm). They are always good sized and perfectly cooked. Tony D's has become one of our go-to places when craving pizza & wings."
"Ordered To-Go for lunch. Giant portions! Ordered online and got there at the expected time. The food was ready and piping hot when I opened it. I'm a soup snob. So I didn't have a high expectation for the soup. But when I tasted the Italian Wedding Ball Soup I let out an audible "oh wow". It is delicious!!! Shrimp was cooked perfectly on the scampi and it was good, what you expect in a scampi. Loads of garlic. The squeeze of lemon they put in container made it pop. The staff were really friendly. Overall to go experience was great."
"What an experience we had tonight! Bella Vista is superb with their cuisine and atmosphere and hospitality. Truly top notch service. Love everything about Bella Vista, I am always transported as when I step through the doors of Bella vista. Annette's drinks were phenomenal!"

Note that this review is exclusive to the Jax Beach location. I came here for a quick Saturday date night around 6pm, and while it was busy we were able to find a seat quickly. To the left of the entrance is a counter service by which they give you and number and you seat yourself in the dining room. However, there are waitresses in the dining room that will take your order and serve your food so I'm not entirely sure why they have two different service options. We ordered a 5 piece of their classic wings to share along with a pepperoni pizza. The wings arrived shortly after our order was placed and they were hot and delicious. Their signature wing comes with soft caramelized onions and has a slight sweetness without being an overly sticky honey-based glaze. Highly recommend ordering these. Afterwards, we were waiting on the pizza and began to notice that several tables who came after us had already received their meals. We waiting for a little while longer before I decided to go to the counter and polite inquire about our meal as it had been nearly an hour. The staff at the counter told me I needed to go ask the other where the pizzas were being picked up from. This was fine although I'd generally expect them to figure it out themselves since they're familiar with the process. I walked to the pizza area and asked a lady there who looked for our pizza and then left. I waited a little while longer before heading back to our table after being ignored. We waited about 15 minutes longer before it came out, I'm assumed they had to remake it after I had asked. The pizza itself was very good, they have a great tangy sauce and the cheese is nice and chewy without being rubbery. The edges generally come out crispy although I usually don't eat the charred crust. Overall, I recommend their food but their service was lackluster - at least at this location.

I've been wanting to go back to Catullo's since my birthday dinner four years ago; so, we ventured out on Christmas Eve for dinner. I emailed to confirm they would be open and was pleasantly surprised when I received an immediate reply. This is a very quaint restaurant with limited seating. For anyone who has never been here, please note they do not take reservations so you need to get in line EARLY. Yes, get in line like the soup Seinfeld episode. I mulled over dinner options all day, but when the rubber met the road our server graciously gave me her recommendations and she was spot on. We started with the spicy arancini and followed up with lasagna and ravioli with chicken breasts. We were so stuffed; but gluttony wouldn't be denied. We ordered a cannoli and a slice of lemoncello cake. I can't wait to go back again. There's a risotto calling my name.

We ordered the Queen "Margarita" Pizza with extra garlic. This was my first time getting this particular pie (because unfortunately majority rules) and it was ok. Nothing to write home about truly. My only complaint would be that the marinara sauce was super sweet. If we didn't add the extra garlic I think it would've been even more overpowering and unlikely inedible for me. Other than that, I love Biggie's as it's my usual go-to spot for late nights since they're open until 2:00 a.m. on the weekends. I recommend ordering a whole pie as it's usually super fresh compared to the slices (which are good as well) but nothing beats a pizza made to order.

Arguably one of the best brunch spots in Jax. Long warm and cozy bar with fantastic drinks and service. Their espresso martinis are a ten-out-of-ten! Their crab cake eggs Benedict are fantastic. If you're a carnivore, check out their hanger steak and eggs; a home run on a plate. If you're in to great food at reasonable prices, Taverna is your go-to!

AMAZING! My group spent an entire day at the beach so we were absolutely exhausted and hangry coming in here. However our waiter, Jeremy, went above and beyond in terms of service and tolerating our wacky requests and questions. Jeremy makes me believe in the good of humanity.Also the food was so bus. My "chicken" risotto soup practically teleported me to a different plane of reality and the breadsticks were exemplar. Ambiance was also quite solid. All in all thank you Jeremy - I hope u get a raise.

We went for an early dinner as we know Enza's can get busy after 6pm. We ordered two glasses of house Chardonnay, no appetizers as we knew we were going to get the pasta fagioli soup. Noelle was our server and was pleasant in greeting us and describing the specials. I ordered the veal parmesan and my wife ordered Chicken Francese. The meals were big and delicious. The restaurant was quiet and comfortable. The only drawback was the service was a bit slow for not being very busy. Still I think it's one of the best Italian restaurant in the area.

We recently came to Violas off of a Social Media recommendation while in town. Everyone was wonderful from the front of house staff to our server! They were kind and attentive. The food was delicious, better than our expectations! The overall environment was simple and elegant, definitely felt like a little family joint! We were greeted upon arrival and when leaving, you felt the personal touch and care! It was a great way to begin the New Year!

"Food great chicken wings signature are the bestLove the environment the service the display presentation Beer are great on temperature and flavor Matanza is my favorite Server are friendly and great Environment are the best to hand up with friends and family Highly recommend this place to everyone"
"Good option if you just need a quick bite. There's two separate seating areas: the counter-service side has a couple tables in the convenience-store side of gas station. The other section is a few steps down a short hallway and includes a bar, tables and booths with indoor and some outdoor seating too. We initially walked into this side but moved over to the convenience side after we realized we could grab a few slices right away and be on our way. Attached to a Shell gas station at the corner of King St and Malaga St. Parking can be hit or miss.."
"Highly recommend. Best Italian food in Saint Augustine. Highly recommend. We had the Puttanesca (chefs kiss), Bolognese pasta, Chicken piccata. It stated pouring mid-meal and they brought everyone in until it passed. Dried every chair and sat us to finish. FIVE STARS"
"The Delle Donne pizza and Cryin Hawaiian wings were 10/10. The generous toppings of mozzarella and ricotta cheese made every bite delicious. Our server was great - wish I remembered his name - and the service was fast. Great date spot! And if you can grab a drink at the bar, you won't regret it!"
"We were greeted immediately, seated as soon as available, and the ambiance was completely charming. Three for three! Our pepperoni pizza was fresh and outstanding. Recommend highly."
"Ordered the jalapeno poppers and Meat Lover's Deep Dish pizza. They offer any of their pizzas as a deep dish option. The jalapeno poppers were just as expected; cheesy, spicy fried goodness (is there a bad jalapeno popper?) The cheese is cheddar. Would get again every time. The pizza wasn't the best Chicago-style deep dish (I lived in the Chicago area for 2 years), but it was excellent. The pizza was not pre-cut, which turned out great for me because I live about 40 mins away and my pizza was still pretty warm when I got home. It was VERY greasy (due to all the meats) so if you get a deep dish, maybe pick one with not so much meat. The sauce is also a sweeter marinara sauce. Overall, I would definitely order again (I wanna try their Mac and Cheese pizza)."
"Decided to stop in after class, my first visit. At first I felt invisible because they sat 4 people before they even seen me, I was alone at it's Valentine's Day. Haha, anyway after finally being seated, I ordered a Calzone w/2 toppings and a sweet tea. The tea was surprisingly good, sweet tea is always a toss up, but it was pretty good. The bread they brought out to eat while waiting on the meal was good, warm and buttery. The Calzone was HUGE, very good, highly recommend!The atmosphere was nice, very clean, no carpet is a definitely a plus. I'll never understand why restaurants have carpet, all I can think of is how much ground in food is in it. The sever, Hannah was fabulous. It was very busy, as it was a Holiday, my favorite (the day I got divorced, yah me)! Anyways, IMO it's worth the stop and give it a try, I'm sure I'll be returning sometime soon."
"This was great food. Lots of cheese and toppings. Edge crust wasn't overly hard. I don't like crust, but I ate most of my crust on this pizza."
"What a find!!! Was in Daytona a couple days and located this place when searching. Gave it a try and so glad we did. From the welcoming in when we walked in to the great service by Matty. She was very attentive and helpful with menu choices. Had a feeling if she appreciated us being there and not like at some places where you can have a feeling of "bothering" them. She was great. The food- excellent. We had a garlic wine sauce w/chicken and broccoli pasta and pasta with bolognese sauce and house made pork/beef meatballs. They were the best I believe I have had!!! She explained that they make all sauces and pastas in house. As well as bread. Was so good, we went back the next night cause we saw a pizza they do, and we were not disappointed at all. They even made special order and added meatballs to it for us. Awesome. Bread was so good, we asked to buy a loaf to go. She asked the owner and sold one for $5, gladly paid that for so fresh just made. The insides are classic Italian restaurant style, very clean and everyone there stayed busy wiping surfaces down and taking care of business. If/when we are in the area, definitely going back and if you are in the area, make it a point to go there, you will not be disappointed."
"My hands down favorite local Cauliflower pizza spot. I love the pizza here great place to order some pizza and shop Publix 20-25 minutes while it's cooking. A perfect way to make everyone happy at home. I mean who doesn't love pizza."
"The pizza debate will live on forever, but Five Star is definitely my favorite in town. Their consistency of quality is astounding, their pricing incredibly sound, and their accuracy is always on point. When I'm craving pizza, I can eat all the frilly types I like but it never satisfies my need like they do. Their employees are always helpful and they are truly a pleasure to speak with. I love Five Star!"
"The young lady working out front, pleasant and helpful, food cake out quickly and served at the perfect temperature.The food was large portions , however only mediocre. My soda from the fountain machine was totally flat, almost like there was no soda water at all, I couldn't drink it and had to change to iced tea. The garlic knots were huge but not much garlic butter used on them. The two meatballs that were served with the spaghetti were pretty large , menu stated they were 3 oz each. The marinara sauce with very tomatoey but not much of any other flavor in the profile"
"Great deep dish pizza! Great service and also have great salad bar! Don't miss out. You will definitely add this to your rotation."
"They have some of the best pizza I've ever had. We sat at the bar and even though they were short staffed (we arrived right as they opened) our bartender was awesome. She was very attentive, sweet, funny, we had a good time hanging out with her. 10/10 recommend"
"Under newer ownership, NYC has come back to their roots - good pizza, fantastic wings & great service!I couldn't ask for a better neighborhood joint.Each visit that I've made since the ownership change has been very consistent - this was unheard of previously - in both the quality of the food & the service provided by the staff.They have a weekly special (Mon-Thurs) currently that's hard to pass up: garlic knots, 10 wings & XL cheese pizza"
"I was in the area and looked at the Yelp reviews. As you can see, the reviews are mixed with service being a particular concern. The good seemed to be a plus for I tried it. I was solo so I sat at the bar. I was the only one at the bar dnd a couple were seated at the table. In spite of this, the attention I received from the bartender was slow and poor. I asked for information on wine options. He gave me a menu and walked away. It took a while before he returned to take my order. I ordered the salmon piccata and a side salad. The salad was fresh and plentiful. The salmon was cooked perfectly. I only wish the pasta had been better drained and that there had been more capers. Not enough piccata!!I told a fellow diner that I had Daren the numerous mixed reviews. She said there was a new owner after Covid. Although the quality of the food had improved, the service had not. It appears that is still true."
"Had a fantastic experience on a whim while wanting Italian food for dinner. Bartender, Jeremy, was our server and the food and drinks were amazing!!Calamari to start, then Penne Alla Vodka and Chicken Valdostana for dinner. Followed by Strawberry Tiramisu for dessert.Also a Pistachio Martini."
"Consistently good food Great service Nice wine list and full barA little loud especially during early bird"
"Shoutout to Yelp Elite Karen H. for reviewing this place and posting photos of her takeout order! It looked delicious and is nearby to where I live so I bookmarked it a few months ago. We recently wanted some homestyle Italian food without having time to cook for a lazy and cold night in. I remembered Leci's and browsed the menu and their Yelp page. We called in the order and it was quick and easy. I ordered the eggplant parm based on the rave reviews and it came with my choice of pasta. I got it with fettuccine and a side salad with their homemade Italian dressing. My boyfriend got the lasagna (which was HUGE) with a caesar salad. We also shared a slice of tiramisu. Our total was only about $45 and we each got 2 full meals out of it. We are now big fans! The eggplant parm was so good and we both liked the sauce. This reminds us of one of our favorite old school Italian restaurants in Pittsburgh. So glad to know we have an affordable and delicious spot for takeout nearby. We will also go to the restaurant some time to try dining in. 5 star takeout experience!"
"The food and the service were absolutely outstanding. The owner came and gave us homemade limoncello. I felt as if I was eating straight out of a nonna's kitchen in Italy. The live music was amazing and my toddler had such an amazing time. They made sure to make us all feel at home by providing my toddler with crayons and interacting with him as well. The seafood pasta I had was absolutely to DIE FOR. The sauce for the garlic rolls was so good I could chug it straight out of a keg like a frat boy."
"Trying to find another place to eat lunch by Riverside and found this place. We were seated immediately as the restaurant was not that crazy busy. We ordered bacon cheese fries, meatlovers Chicago style pizza and bbq chicken pizza. We were surprised how large the servings were. One of the kids for 2 slices of cheese pizza with a drink which is one of their lunch special under $10. All of our orders were delicious and not greasy at all in comparison to some pizza places we have tried. Good place to visit to get your money's value for the amount of food you are getting."
"Ordered the Vino's Pesto Chicken Hot Sub from here!! This sub was filled with delicious goodness! The pesto chicken with fresh tomato slices and cheese oozing out makes this sub appetizing with every bite!! I'll be coming back to try their other dishes!"
"I was in the mood for some Pasta so I stopped in on the way home one day, quaint spot looks like what I imagine an authentic Italian Restaurant would look like. The sever promptly greeted me and took my order, didn't take very long as they were not busy at that time, by the time I left the place was half full.The Pasta dish was really good, lots of very well balanced flavors. I also ordered the Soup, I don't remember the name of it but it was really good."
