About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Charming
  • Great for fine wines
La Nouvelle is the next story in our culinary journey by Michael Lugo. This opportunity to bring French Nouveau cuisine to our city has us so excited. Bringing to the helm Matthieu Landillon from the coastal city of Marseille, La Nouvelle allows us to explore classic French Bistro fare with an elevated edge. The atmosphere will lead you to the streets of Paris without leaving St. Augustine.

    Charming location in a residential area. We sat on the porch, it was lovely and the service was awesome. But, oh the food! The duck confit is truly memorable. It is my go-to order at French restaurants. It was the best ever.

    First visit to this restaurant and it was wonderful! We were greeted with a “Happy Anniversary! And an immediate offer of something a little bubbly to start. We sat out on the porch on a very pleasant St Augustine evening. Service was excellent and professional yet personal. The very fresh and hot baguettes with salted butter and radish were perfect. The gem salad was dressed nicely and flavorful. We had the branzino and the flat iron steak, both perfectly prepared. Dessert was a crème brûlée that rivals my own, and that compliment came from my husband! Wine selection was fantastic and we loved our selection. All in all, we will be back. We have decided to celebrate our anniversary here each year.

    Frenchy does a wonderful job in the kitchen, a very kind and modest chef, Alex the server was polite, cordial, and very professional! The ambience of the place was friendly, well spaced out, and created a comfortable atmosphere with distinct zone. If you’re looking for a good night out with wonderful French cuisine put your faith in La Nouvelle

    We are vacationing in St. Augustine and chose La Nouvelle to celebrate our anniversary. Tucked away from the busy downtown, the historic home & grounds are a dream (with parking to boot). Every staff member was friendly and helpful, and our server, Natasha, was especially fantastic. The dining room is intimate and cozy, and our incredible dinner was perfectly timed and never rushed. The ambiance, service, and food were all impeccable - a perfect place for a special occasion.

    My husband and I had the bouillabaisse for 2. It was not the usual soup. Lobster tail and claw, shrimp, bass, clams and mussels in shell were swimming in a delicate Provencale sauce. It was one of the most delicious meals we’ve ever had… and we were celebrating our 51st anniversary! Our appetizer, salad, and dessert were excellent as well. We applaud le chef! Our server, Jessie was pleasant, informative, and attentive. Indoor ambiance was wonderful. We’ll be back!

    Above average food, indifferent service. Waiter chatted up another table while we had to reach back to ice bucket for water and wine and poured ourselves. Check was delivered while we were waiting for dessert.

    This is one if not the best restaurant in Saint Augustine! The food is superb; the service and staff are extremely friendly and professional. We are locals and in this is on our regular rotation. An absolute must for true foodies.
