    "I love the relaxed feel of this place – like a comfortable dining room in a friends home. I definitely would return to try more dishes. The escargot and duck confit were amazing. The table was split on the steak tartare, but the pomme frites were on point 😋 Everyone loved the mash potatoes and duck fat potatoes. Highly recommend the crème brûlée. Service was well-timed and friendly, wine was delicious!

    Everything was perfect—from the service, to the ambience, the cocktails, and the food. This was our first time trying their food, and I could not have been more pleased. It was fresh, quick, and delicious. Highly recommend. One of my new favorites in St. Augustine.

    For a Monday evening it was max capacity likely because of the St Augustine nights for lights. We were seated within 5 minutes of the reservation and the food was excellent as usual. The waiter despite having multiple tables was on the ball and the service was excellent.

    Great restaurant in the middle of the historic district of St. Augustine. Loved the old house feel. Server was always available until the end of our meal when we needed to leave for an event. We had to bypass coffee as it was taking 30 minutes for dessert and coffee. The staff was exceptional. The meal cooked and served excellently. The ambiance might have been better with a different table. We were seated in a small room in back by the black curtain where staff continued to go back and forth. I would suggest when you make a reservation to see if you can get into the main dining area.

    We are regulars at Cordova and love it. Christmas Eve was extremely busy and we found it difficult to find a place to sit in the lounge while waiting for our dinner reservation at 6:30. The kitchen was slow and we didn't finish dinner until 9:30. We'll definitely go back but this experience was out of the ordinary. We have dined here on Christmas Eve for the last 6 years so it's become somewhat of a tradition for us. Never had this much of a delay in the past.
