Collage RestaurantSuperb place to dineI count Collage as one of my top three places to dine in St. Augustine. One is never disappointed in the quality of the food or service.5/20/2013 12:00:00 AMExcellent!!!Great food. Nice portion size (I'm a big guy) great value for the money!5/18/2013 12:00:00 AMOur first time to Collage,Our first time to Collage, I had heard from friends how good it was. The servers were friendly and efficient, did not rush us at all. Food was beautifully plated, tasted good, and was hot. Small menu but a good variety. We were amazed how many people were turned away because of no reservations, its a small space so a reservation is a must. Overall a very nice restaurant here in St. Augustine. But be prepared to spend some money, it is quite pricey.5/18/2013 12:00:00 AMOur 4th time at Collage. ExcellentOur 4th time at Collage. Excellent each time. Our favorite resturant in St. Augustine.5/17/2013 12:00:00 AMoutstanding!!A true gem!! Exceeds expectations! A must if you visit St Augustine!5/17/2013 12:00:00 AMTablecloth fine diningWent to Collage with my wife and two kids (ages 22 and 19), We were looking for fine dining in St. Augustine instead of the same ole fried fish, pub menus that many other restaurants offer. The Collage did not disappoint. We had "soup to nuts" and the food was great. It's a bit pricey, but have paid more for similar quality. Only disappointment was the escargot (mediocre). Wife loved the lobster (dinner) and the tenderloin brushetta (appetizer). Daughter feasted on the shrimp. My pork tenderloin was very good and my son had the fish of the day (don't remember what it was) and clam chowder. Would definitely go back.5/16/2013 12:00:00 AMGood foodSteak could be cut with a fork! Lobster ravioli was fantastic! I would definitely go back and recommend collage to anyone5/15/2013 12:00:00 AMMust visit if in St. AugustineIf you are ever fortunate to spend some time in St. Augustine, DO NOT MISS this restaurant! We discovered it several years ago on a whim. We had no other dinner plans and after having viewed their menu online, I called hoping to get a reservation for that evening. Luckily that was not a problem and we proceeded to have a truly wonderful dining experience. The restaurant is small - a front room that has 5 tables and a fireplace and a larger room that can hold tables for small and large groups. The colors make the place very warm and inviting. Staff is always attentive and friendly and the food--out of this world! Everything is prepared with loving care and fresh ingredients. It's now our favorite dining destination in St. Augustine.5/15/2013 12:00:00 AMCollage is aptly titledThe Collage restaurant was an enjoyable experience. Menu provides good variety, the food was excellent. The service was attentive without being obtrusive. The wine recommendation from the server was absolutley perfect for our entrees. All in all, a very pleasant evening.5/14/2013 12:00:00 AMThe food was excellent! TheThe food was excellent! The service was excellent: the staff was helpful, attentive and friendly! The ambience was wonderful...comfortable, friendly, "warm"! I wish I didn't live so far away... I would eat here on a regular basis. I WILL eat here whenever I'm in St. Augustine!!!5/14/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat foodThis was our first time at this restaurant. It had been recommended by my doctor, and we were not disappointed. I had the lobster ravioli as an entrée, my wife had the filet with gorgonzola and foie gras. Both meals were very well prepared and interesting, however, the highlight of the meal to me was the strawberry champagne salad.
It's a small place, so the noise level is really a function of how considerate the patrons are. On the night we visited there was a large party at the next table with one gentleman who was very vocal and very loud, making it difficult for my wife and I to concentrate on our conversation. This obviously isn't the restaurant's fault, but it did cause me to not list it as a good choice for a romantic venue.5/14/2013 12:00:00 AMOutstandingI would recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a first class meal in a tourist area. Food was above par, wine list was well appointed. It was a very enjoyable dining experience.5/14/2013 12:00:00 AMDelicious dinnerMy wife and I decided to visit St. Augustine last week because it had been 30 plus years since our last trip. With a reservation for dinner at Collage, we were greeted and immediately shown to a table (adjacent to the fireplace). Water was poured, great bread along with a whole bulb of baked garlic was placed and wine was ordered as we perused the menu. My wife is a vegetarian and there was nothing listed, but the chef had something special for her. I started with a spicy shrimp appetizer; my wife had a beet salad. I had a special scallop entree; my wife had a special pierogi entree with mushroom and cherry sauce. The food was excellent; our server was excellent. We highly recommend Collage, a great little restaurant.5/13/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat Mothers Day Special MealMy wife thoroughly enjoyed her special dinner. The food was great and the service was even better if that is possible. If you want to treat someone to a really special meal, this is one place you should not overlook. Thanks for a great time.5/12/2013 12:00:00 AMCharming Bistro Imaginative Menu!Celebrated a big birthday and Mother's day. Arrived late for our reservation and the staff could not have been more accommodating. Meals were twists on traditional continental fare with splendid presentation. Go if you have a chance, a gem!5/11/2013 12:00:00 AMQuaint little restaurant withQuaint little restaurant with terrific food. It's smaller and great for a nice dinner with that special someone or 2 couples. I would not recommend this for parties over 6 or 8 people as room is tight. More for the romantic dinner. Most importantly the food is terrific and you can tell that a great deal of care is taken in it's preparation.5/11/2013 12:00:00 AMExcellent service! Had theExcellent service! Had the scallop and shrimp dish! Very good but would have been better if dish had more than 2 scallops for the price! Waitress and other staff very attentative! Our hostess even called us early in order to seat us at 2000 rather than 2100! Very nice touch! Dessert was included as it was my daughters birthday, thank you! Made our dining experience enjoyable! Only negative there was a group of 8.people near us who were extremely loud!!!!5/11/2013 12:00:00 AMSuperb!This was absolutely the best restaurant ever!! From appetizer to entree to dessert, everything was perfect. No other words needed!5/10/2013 12:00:00 AMHidden GemWhere has Collage been all our lives? We've only lived here for 15 years but a recent search of another restaurant review site recommended Collage. Small, intimate, quaint location in old St. Augustine. Food was stellar, service first rate, menu very creative. We loved it and we will be back.5/9/2013 12:00:00 AMOverall very goodFood was delicious. Loved the interior design and the wait staff was awesome.5/8/2013 12:00:00 AMOn our top tenAn excellent could be Michelin 2 star restaurant. In the "old" part of St Aug, and a fun short walk from public parking to the East. We like to go early, as we like quiet dining. Not to suggest that later is noisy; I just don't take the risk. Service is always good early, and there is always time to enjoy several wines from a good list. Even a couple of Molly Dookers on the list?5/7/2013 12:00:00 AMPleasureable ExperienceMy wife and I came here for a romantic anniversary dinner. Upon arrival we were greeted right away by the manager. We were asked if we wanted to be seated right away in the main dinning room or if we would mind waiting a few minutes for a more seculed corner table. I thought this was a special touch. The waiter was with us right away and offered us menus and offerred to explain the wine list. After sampling I decided on the dry house wine and my wife decided to combine a dry bubbly muscato and a much sweeter wine. Both of us throughly satisfied. Dinner was excellent. My wife had the warm goat cheese salad and black grouper, exquisite. I had the tomato salad and steak which was tender enough to cut with a fork.5/7/2013 12:00:00 AMWOW!This is the first dinner experience in a very long time that I can honestly say WOW! The food was fantastic as was the service. I had the grouper and my wife had the shrimp-scallop linguine. Both dishes were excellent and the grouper was to die for; cooked perfectly. Prices were reasonable---- not cheap but at least you felt like you got what you paid for--- a really excellent experience. Definitely recommend and will go back when in the area.5/5/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat MealWE had a great meal again. We have been to Collage 4 times and have never had a bad experience. Give it a try5/4/2013 12:00:00 AMThe best meal I had in StThe best meal I had in St Augustine. The lobster tail on the lobster ravioli was way too salty!5/3/2013 12:00:00 AMEvery course from appetizerEvery course from appetizer through dessert was outstanding. The browned butter vanilla bean vinaigrette salad dressing was unique and complimented the rest of the salad. The lobster ravioli was just the right consistency with enough shrimp and lobster to have a good portion. The mousse dessert was light and we enjoyed the coconut sauce as well. Overall, one of the best meals I've had anywhere. I am definitely looking forward to coming back for more when I am in the area.5/3/2013 12:00:00 AMConsistently Wonderful!I have dined here numerous times.....it's always wonderful!

Would not only recommend to others but we are already planning our next trip there.4/27/2013 12:00:00 AMThis is one of the finestThis is one of the finest restaurants in a town that has become a restaurant mecca. The food is excellent and the ambience is exceptional. It is attracting an upscale clientele (it is expensive for the area, but worth it). You now have to reserve two weeks ahead for a popular weekend hour. Final summary, this restaurant would make it in New York.4/27/2013 12:00:00 AMThis was our second visitThis was our second visit to Collage---well worth the drive from the other coast!This time we both had filets with their signature sauce--exceptional!Collage is small and intimate so you definitely need to have reservations....we saw a good number of people turned away or offered a 9:30 seating. We'll be back!4/27/2013 12:00:00 AMOutstanding foodWe love this place. The lobster ravioli is delicious and three of us had it and thoroughly enjoyed it. My son had the filet with blue cheese sauce and said it was great. We also enjoyed the goat cheese salad very much. Our desserts were choc. bread pudding, creme brulee, and a specially made tartufo. Nice choice from the wine list and everything was excellent. We will always return here when we're in town.4/26/2013 12:00:00 AMExcellent service and friendlyExcellent service and friendly staff.

Everything was great! It's our new favorite restaurant.4/21/2013 12:00:00 AMFood and service were impeccable.Food and service were impeccable. We had the black grouper that was superb. Only negative comments were the tomatoes on the warm goat cheese salad were not ripe and very woody. we could not eat them. Also, a large party was in the main room and they were extremely noisy and made the atmosphere more bar like. Overall, loved the place, would recommend it and plan to return.4/20/2013 12:00:00 AMAbsolutely amazing...we hadAbsolutely amazing...we had wines and the onion soup. The bread and garlic was awesome.

Very nice, but relaxing atmosphere right in the middle of the historic area of S.A. The wait-staff was friendly and proficient and the food was excellent. The warm goat cheese salad was very special...just delicious! Our friends had the lamb and said it was the best they had ever had! (And they have been around !) Hubby and my mains of scallops and fish was done to perfection and they even did a special cooking method for his fish, minus the menu coating! All in all, a very successful and delicious meal!
