Green Papaya Thai Sushi(st Augustine)

No child's menu $26 for a dish with a 6 ounce steak and some veggies or are not a very good cut of steak at that my grandson ordered a dish with fried duck probably about 6 ounces of dock and it was $30. Those prices are ridiculous and they charge extra for a bowl of rice to come with your meal. You would think at $26 and $30 it wouldn't hurt their budget to throw in a cup of rice. Food was OK so sushi was good. because everything else was so expensive. I ordered one seven dollar sushi route for me and two eggrolls for my nine year old but it was enough for us to eat. My total bill was $92 . never again.

The food was great, the atmosphere was wonderful. But the service was HORRIBLE. I didn’t get his name but according to the other employees he just started working there and it was his 4 day working. (For the company/customers wondering who he is). It’s a middle aged men who doesn’t have a whole lot of hair on his head top. When ordering we asked him if there is “Pho” which he replied to that he’ll drive to the nearest market and get it for us. At first we thought it was a joke and asked again and instead of saying ‘YES we have’ or ‘NO we don’t’ he started rudely asking if we know what Pho is even and where it came from. For a person who just started working he shouldn’t have this type of attitude. Mind you we let that slide and just kept ordering. After getting our drinks and it was time to order our food we asked him if it’s possible they can remove the spiciness some dishes like sushi rolls have for the kids. (Mind you some dishes have a red jalapeño picture next to it indicating it’s spicy). But he rudely turned to my kids who are teenagers and said “tell your mother that if there is a red jalapeño sign next to it. It means it’s spicy”. And he kept repeating that over and over when I was just trying to ask if they can take it off from the dish. I am a grown women who has 4 kids and I’ve been to a lot of asian restaurants. Some even though it indicates spicy on some dishes they can take it off if you ask. But AGAIN rather then saying ‘NO we can’t take it off” or ‘YES we can take it off” he just aggressively kept telling my kids to tell me that this sign indicates it’s spicy like I’m d and can’t understand him. He speaks good English and I do too but I admit there is some accents to it but that doesn’t give him the pass to treat me like I’m d and don’t understand anything. I was VERY offended and so were my family. We also encountered other issues but they weren’t that bad compared to this. I am a kind person and understanding and gives a lot of chances before they speak up but this behavior is UNACCEPTABLE. It will NOT profit the business hiring employees that are aggressive, racist, rude and hot headed. We did not have a pleasant experience even though the food was great. The only reason I’m even giving this a star is because of the food.Parking: Since this restaurant is still new in the market. Everyone is visiting it and I would recommend making a reservation before you go. We waited 30 min along with other 4 families that were in line.

Everything was great! The servers were kind and efficient. The food was delicious and beautifully presented. The atmosphere was elegant and cozy. My husband and I loved everything about it. We are visiting but will definitely be back when in St Augustine again.Food: 5/5

I don 't know what happened to the food at this restaurant but it has taken a terrible nose dive! Do not ask for your food to be 'not spicy ' as it will then be dry tasteless! I had the Pad Thai and my husband had the Fried rice, both with shrimp. We also had the fresh Spring roll. The spring roll was 'chewy ' like it had been around a while. This has happened twice now.

This was a wonderful lunch experience. The inside of the restaurant has a huge wall with a projector showing the ocean, which creates a nice ambiance. The food was sent out on beautiful displays and real flowers as decoration. The food itself was very tasty. Especially the curry, but do be warned, it is very spicy! Even on a one, if you aren't accustomed to a lot of spice in your food, they might be a bit much. We want to go back and try some of the different types. We ordered a sushi lunch with roasted duck as an appetizer, chocolate mousse as a dessert, and a basil curry just to try, and topped it off with a Thai coffee!
