Michael's Tasting Room

Nestled in a quiet corner of downtown St. Augustine lies a true gem. Michael's offers an intimate dining experience favored by many locals. While the prices may not be for the faint of heart, the food is absolutely worth it. The menu may not be extensive, but the wine selection is impressive. We enjoyed a wonderful Spanish wine paired with a beautifully cooked porterhouse steak, medium rare and cooked to perfection. The potatoes were simple yet flavorful, and the house salad was the ideal portion, dressed with a light and non-vinegary homemade dressing. As an appetizer, the charcuterie board was delightful, bursting with various flavors to explore. We ended our meal with bananas foster, although I can't help but wish I had tried the chocolate tart instead. A champagne toast to kick off the meal added a lovely touch to the evening. Michael's is perfect for a special date night with someone you cherish.

Arguably one of the best meals I've ever had! The service was impeccable, and the variety in the chef's tasting menu pleasantly surprised us with each new course. Having the chef personally present each dish was a delightful surprise! Her background in culinary and art was evident in every plate. The wine pairings were perfect as well. It was pricey, but absolutely worth it.

I can't recommend this place highly enough! The wine selection is fantastic, and the food is outstanding. My steak was cooked to perfection. The wait staff was excellent, too. Plus, the location is ideal, right in the heart of town. Parking can be tricky, so I opted for an Uber. I definitely suggest making a reservation.

The food was delicious, the service was wonderful we had Sean who was friendly, helpful and very professional. St Augustine was a pitstop on our honeymoon roadtrip and we'd happily come back here for a meal. Dessert was to die for

Everything was very high quality. Tasted amazing. All of the staff members were very personable and inviting. Great wine selection. Would definitely recommend this as a fine dinning option in St. Augustine. Definitely want to come back in the future.
