The Back 40 Urban Cafe

A friend told us about Back 40, glad he did. Probably the best salsa I've ever had. Everything is fresh. The service was fantastic. Great vibe. I can't wait to go back.

Cantina Louie

Reviewed By jumpinjaxflash

Today, we went to Cantina Louies to meet a couple who go there regularly. We do not go to Mexican restaurants these day as often as we did when we were younger. So many traditional eateries now offer Tacos, Nachos, and Quesadillas, Burritos, as well as Fajitas on their menus a long side American standards. Many times at a better price and allows people in your party to wander off and have something different than the group. This being so we were looking for something we could not find anywhere else. The interior was simple, but pleasant, and a little noisy, but that is expected with large groups out for office lunches with a lot of laughs. The server come over quickly and we got our drinks and then took our order. Very pleasant young lady. Surprisingly with the place pretty full we got our order quickly. I love tacos so I ordered the grouper and sriracha shrimp taco. I like spicy. The problem is that the grouper could have been any fish, the Peruvian sauce and jalapeno was so intense that I could not taste the fish which I admit was a pretty large piece. The "sriracha shrimp" which I expected to be hot did not let me down, but was more than a drizzle for sure. The shrimp was deep, deep, plus deep fried, leaving no taste of shrimp. My mouth was on fire after these two tacos, not what I expected, but I have never been to Mexico so that might be the way they do it there. Our server spotted my distress and came over quickly with a full glass of water, "my hero". My wife ordered the "California Burrito " which supposedly was a flour tortilla stuffed with "grilled chicken" lettuce, rice, re-fried beans, sour cream, "guacamole" and topped with "queso dip". The chicken was large strips of "boiled" chicken, no grill marks at all, that were very tough and a butter knife could barely get a cut through. I could see my wife was struggling. There was NO guacamole in her burrito at all. I know all this because my wife did not want any more after she ate a third so we took it home. On examination at home I found the flour tortilla very tough, and queso glued to it and tasteless. I did notice that my friends who go there often empty the insides of there veggie burrito onto the plate and toss aside the tortilla and then ate the insides. The re-fried beans were tasty and there was a lot of them. Although large tough pieces and not grilled at all, there was a lot of chicken even though having no taste at all. All this being so, we were looking for something we could not find anywhere else and we DID. I know many, many people like this place, but my first impression was not so.

Little Casa Maya

Reviewed By Nancyjane1965

In addition to the Casa Maya in the downtown historic area, there is now a Little Casa Maya located off US 1 South. The place is quite small but has both inside and outside seating. We tried the Cuban sandwich, fish taco, and black bean soup and Yucatán salad. Black bean soup and Yucatán salad were outstanding. Service was very good. We did struggle, though, as there are only 2 tables that seat parties of 4. The rest of the tables seated 2. We had to crowd around a smaller table. Regardless of its small size, the menu was nicely varied. And, hooray there was adequate parking. We will go again.

Mi Carnal

Reviewed By Nancyjane1965

After reading other reviews we stopped by for lunch and were not disappointed! This little restaurant is off US 1 near St Augustine Shores. There is adequate parking (hooray, given parking problems in town). The restaurant was immaculate. The owner waited on us and was so patient and considerate. We had the mixed pupusas (cheese, beans, and chicharron). Wonderful! We had not been able to check out the menu online, but were pleased with the variety offered, including vegetarian. So, if you are interested in a clean, local, reasonably priced, authentic restaurant that has outstanding food and service try Mi Carnal out.

This is Tues. March 26, 2019. This restaurant was located at the end of a strip type retail mall and was close to our motel. We enjoyed our experience at the Casa Maria from the moment we entered the door. We were greeted by a gentleman dressed in typical Mexican garb, which gave the place some real atmosphere. The walls were painted with large murals with a Mexican theme. When we arrived around 6:00 pm there were about 20 customers already seated but within a half hour the place was almost filled. Tuesday night was taco night and most of the customers were ordering those as did we. They have a very extensive menu and everyone is started off with complementary warm chips and not too hot salsa. Very good. All in all it was a pretty good visit.We appreciate your visit and thank you for your comment, it is important for us to know the opinion of all our clients in order to give the best service

A small local family owned and operated restaurant. With food created with family and love in mind, we bring the southeast, specially Yucatan, Mexican style flavor to St.Augustine Beach.

Wonderful Mexican cuisine with great prices! The place is a little small & the seating is tight but, this place does not disappoint. Service is good but, with it being so busy with tables indoors as well as a screened in room for outdoor seating it was easy to be overlooked once your food arrived to the table. The food is very good & decent sized portions. Food cake out very hot & was delicious.

My family recently spent a week at Beacher's Lodge, across the street from Crescent Beach Bar and Grill. We decided to try it because it was close. What impressed me first was the great waitstaff! They were friendly, efficient, and had a great sense of humor. Then the food! They have a great variety and all reasonably priced. The food was excellent. We returned four times during the week and we never disappointed. They have several TVs so you watch any sport you want. They had live music and they are starting trivia and karoake. I'm so glad we found this place. When we return to the beach next year I will make it a point to schedule more visits here. You can't go wrong!
