Caps On The Water

Incredible place with great service, food and drinks!Ambiance offers indoor, outdoor seating with tiki bar and sunken in bar.Place is huge!

In St Augustine for a day trip. After an afternoon in high traffic touristy area we were looking for something a bit off the beaten path.This place is a true gem.We were early for dinner, they promptly sat us at the bar outside. Amazing views. Really nice funky rustic outdoor vibe!!Apps at the bar with our first round of drinks. Perfect! Please do not pass up the Oysters Rockefeller. They were so good, we added a second order with dinner!The three entrees we had were all fantastic!! The beef tips, sheepshead fish and sushi grade ahi. Both fish plates were amazing. Clearly catch of the day is their specialty! The beef tips was also very tasty.Amazing environment. Amazing views on the water. Amazing fresh seafood. Really wonderful place to spend the late afternoon and catch sunset! Cant wait to go back!

Nice ambience, good food, great service - what's not to like??We went to Caps on the Water on a slightly chilly Saturday for dinner. We opted to sit inside, they have heaters outside by the water which would have made for a beautiful scene as we ate but it was just too cold. The inside is cozy and tables well spaced out. We shared a beet salad, which was so simple yet excellently prepared with the goat cheese and vinaigrette really helping the dish shine. We also shared a tuna tartare which was also well seasoned and the chips were good and crispy!For entrees, the blackened catch (grouper) with curry, pickled veggies, and brown rice was so delicious - the seasoning and cook on the fish was amazing, and the curry brought some luscious flavor to the dish. The fish and chips were also great, all well seasoned, although the fish could have been a little crispier. The fries and hush puppies though were great as-is, and the tartar sauce brought the whole thing together. Our server was super friendly and answered all our questions with a smile, just the cherry on top!A nice place for a nice sit down meal.

Family visiting for Christmas- must visit Caps because everyone loves this place. Sat outside under the heaters by the water near the bar. Our waitress Austin was outstanding - she took excellent care of our group. We started with some raw oysters from VA. Also ordered the breadbasket which had two types of butter in garlic and a honey butter mix. Also several Caps Old Fashioned they use Four Roses (very yummy).Son had the fresh catch tonight it was grouper, two shared the crusted grouper and I had the She Crab Soup. Plus we shared an order of hush puppies. Be sure to try their asparagus it's delicious. Great views, excellent food, outstanding service plus no parking issues (everyone uses their valet service).Yep it's a 5/5.

Definitely the best seafood restaurant I've been to , very beautiful view , ambience is just perfect the food was delicious

It has been over 2 years since our last visit here at CAPS and we have family visiting so this place is a great dinner spot to choose.Of course, there are no reservations. Valet only parking, 10-minute wait on the parking lot which is alright. But we had to wait another 20 minutes at the new waiting area to order drinks. The new pier is a good idea so that guests can chill while waiting. Be prepared to wait as it really does fill up on the weekends.Got the Vilano Shrimp for the appetizer as it is sautéed in spicy Thai garlic sauce paired along with olives and Asiago cheese and spinach. It was tasty, but the shrimp was a bit dry.Crusted Catch was delicious-just right with the texture of the fish with mashed potatoes and a variety of greens blended very well. To top it off, we ordered the Lava Cake and it was excellent as we all shared it to the last bite.

We ate at Caps on the Water tonight, for the last day of our short (3 night) stay in St. Augustine. The weather has been chilly (50's) and this was the warmest day. They gave us a nice table with a view in their indoor pavilion. We shared the shrimp skewers appetizer, which was really tasty. Our server was so pleasant. My husband ordered the fish & chips. I had the garlic noodles with blackened chicken. The noodles were awesome--garlic, cilantro, & a few chopped peanuts. The sunset views were amazing. I felt like I was on Maui or somewhere far away. It was a great evening.

This restaurant really embodies the St. Augustine vibe. There is complimentary valet parking upon arrival. We had a short wait for dinner, so we grabbed a spot at the bar to get some cocktails. I had one of the best Aperol Spritz. Our party of 6 was seated right by the water, which was nice. We enjoyed the ambiance of the sunset while dining. Our server was great and provided good information on the dishes we had questions about. I ordered the Jambalaya, and it was TOP NOTCH. The flavors were so good, and there was a plentiful amount of shrimp and sausage with every bite. A show stopper was the 2 cornbread muffins served with the dish. I could eat those every day! Everyone in our group was very pleased with their orders. The service was great, food was great, atmosphere was great.

Went with a large group of coworkers and it was such a wonderful experience! First of all, the views are incredible. We had a large table outside (thankfully there was a nice breeze because it was hot!). The service was top tier as well. Our server was amazing - and I know large parties can generally be a challenge but this was such a smooth and great experience. Everyone who stopped by our table was lovely. I sampled a large amount of items so I won't go into specific details on each. I am giving the food 4 stars. It's not the best I've ever had but not at all bad. Good portions. You are definitely paying for the vibes though. And they are well worth it. My specific meal was the honey rosemary salmon. I really enjoyed it! And the oysters were amazing. We had several kinds. The drinks were also pretty good. Everyone in the party was very satisfied with their food, beverages, and the experience. I would definitely go back.

The food and drink were fine, but server disappeared after taking our food order.We finally went to front desk and the manager helped get our bill, but offered no compensation. We will not be back.
