Neros Waterfront Cafe

New discovery. I have walked by several times. Now I get to try out Nero's.A perfect experience. Ambience was great the food and the service was also outstanding. If I was staying here longer I would definitely go back.

This is the restaurant at our hotel that we stayed in for two days. You get free breakfast here when you stay at the hotel. It is a very quaint small restaurant with a very old world charm and was decorated for the Christmas season when we visited. Plenty of outdoor seating with lots of dogs . Great service and beautiful views.

First off, the location for this restaurant is really fun, as close as you can get in st Augustine to the waterfront and a nice view out the window. The food was fairly nice and came out fairly quickly, I had selected the Ham, Brie and Apple Grilled Cheese which is an interesting idea and on paper is unique, but the flavors all complement each other. I have to mark this down a little bit because there was a very small amount of brie in my sandwich, and for something that is referred to as a 'grilled cheese' this seemed a little disappointing. If it was more brie in it would certainly be a much higher review because the parts that did have it in were very tasty. The waffle was fresh and tasty, but for the price could have done with this side of bacon or home fries or at least a piece of toast or two.I was able to substitute my side for one on the breakfast menu, which was appreciated and the home fries were nicely seasoned.Our server was very polite and friendly, but the service was pretty slow at times, and as we were the only table and sat outside in the heat we were hoping for a water refill a little bit more than we did, as it was multiple times empty for long periods.Nothing would specifically put us off from returning and we did enjoy our experience overall, but the price is certainly for the view as opposed to anything else, as our food was more expensive than similar options around the town.

Well...I stayed at the Inn so it was a free breakfast...or $15.00. I got the Hash and eggs. The hollandaise sauce was so thick I thought they might have given me a cheese sauce instead. The Hash was ok...though it had a slight burnt taste to it. In the end I paid $3.00. So it wasn't all that bad and better than the free breakfast you get at most hotels. Now if I had paid full price...this would be very different story.

Alright, where do I begin? I am in love with a Nero's! The decor is so timepiece, our waitress was phenomenal, the menu is small/concise/decadent, the location is off of a super, pedestrian-busy, shopping street (also near the Fort called Castillo de San Marcos), and the prices are decent!If you love tomatoes, delicious/adult beverages, & stuffed olives, order the Bloody Mary! It is fantastic & refreshing!

Food and view is amazing! So Christmassy and so beautiful !!!! Will definitely come back!

Well, this place has a lot to offer location wise - water views, touristy place, great decor. So we figured- we are not expecting great food here, we are here just for decent lunch and nice pictures. We were so wrong! The food was excellent too!

Nestled in the heart of St. Augustine, Nero's Waterfront Cafe offers not only a stunning view but also an unparalleled breakfast experience. From the moment we stepped in, the service was exceptional. The staff were attentive, friendly, and made us feel right at home.As we settled at our table overlooking the waterfront, we were treated to a breakfast that surpassed all expectations. The food was not only delicious but also beautifully presented. The highlight of the meal was undoubtedly the mimosas, perfectly mixed and served with a touch of elegance.The combination of excellent service, delectable breakfast, and the picturesque setting made our visit to Nero's Waterfront Cafe an unforgettable experience. I cannot recommend this gem enough for anyone seeking a delightful start to their day in St. Augustine.

A 5 star view..... That's all unfortunately. We my wife and I live in St. Augustine and are always on the lookout for a great local spot for our weekly morning date. We arrived around 9am and were able to get a table without waiting. The gentleman who sat us was pleasant and did a good job. He doubled as our server. We asked him for menu recommendations and ordered based off his advice. Let's talk about the food. Simply put it was awful. Here's whyMy wife ordered "the standard " scrambled eggs with wheat toast, bacon and home fries. The only item that was prepared correctly was the toast. The scrambled eggs were laughable, literally brown from being on the griddle, like the cook was doing something else besides cooking the food and forgot about them. Honestly among the worst I have seen. Bacon was between crunchy and soft like the consistency of thin cardboard and the home fries were absolutely saturated with grease. My wife picked at it but only ate the toast. I ordered the hash with over medium eggs per the recommendation of our server. Same greasy nasty potatoes and finger nail size pieces of fatty grisly corned beef. It's served in a bowl (strange choice) that made the portion size seem small. The grease from the meat and potatoes pooled up on the bottom of the bowl making a 3rd of the breakfast inedible. The over medium eggs I ordered were burnt to a crisp. No runny yolk, and the hollandaise sauce came in the side in a plastic cup.... YUCK. Our server saw that we hardly touched our food, didn't ask if things were ok, just took the plates and scraped them into the bus tub so the kitchen didn't have to be held accountable for serving heinous food. No refills on coffee , water, didn't come to check on us once. Not a care in the world. As a side note we walked by the restaurant again on our way to our car. Almost an hour later our trash was still sitting there on our table. This place was almost empty, what excuse could there possibly be for any of this to have happened? What a mess! There are lots of lovely spots to eat in St. Augustine find a different one.

Arrived for breakfast shortly after they opened and were informed after ordering drinks that they were out of both pancakes and waffles. We decided to stay because we were already sat with drinks. Coffee was undrinkable and eggs Benedict was tasteless. Omelets and potatoes were basic, fruit served was old. Vastly overpriced. Over $100 for 2 adults and 2 children for diner food.Our waitress was sweet and the only reason this isn't a 1 star review.
