The Reef

Vilano Beach · St. Augustine

Also listed in: St. Augustine Bars Over 50 St. Augustine

One of the few true oceanfront dining rooms left in Northeast Florida, built by the Usina family on land they held for generations and run by that family since 2002. Tablecloths without the stiffness, Florida-grown beef, and a brunch that comes with a glass of champagne.
