Columbia Restaurant

Old City · St. Augustine

Also listed in: Over 50 St. Augustine

The St. Augustine branch of the Columbia, the family group whose Tampa original has served since 1905 and bills itself as Florida's oldest restaurant. This one opened on St. George Street in 1983, and the rooms are the draw: hundreds of hand-painted tiles, a Spanish-style fountain, and private dining for groups of 10 to 200.
