Saint Augustine, Florida
St. Johns County · 538 restaurants
As the oldest continuously occupied European settlement in the United States, St. Augustine brings 450 years of history to its 450+ restaurant scene. The cobblestoned St. George Street in the historic district draws tourists to its collection of restaurants, while the San Marco Avenue corridor and Anastasia Island offer more locally oriented dining. The city's food culture blends Southern, Spanish, and Minorcan influences — including the famous datil pepper that flavors many local dishes.
Data on this page
InspectFL turns public DBPR inspection records into city-level score trends, grade breakdowns, and restaurant history so this page is useful for comparison, not just a list of names.
How to use this city page
Start with the citywide grade mix, then use filters to narrow by category, grade, or inspection dates before opening the full restaurant record.
What the citywide data means
Saint Augustine has a heavier concentration of failing restaurants than you’d want, which makes recent inspection history and dispositions especially important.

Important context for city pages
City pages are comparison tools built from public Florida DBPR inspection data. They help surface local patterns quickly, but they are not official government rankings and they should not replace reading the individual restaurant page before making a decision.
