Frankly the food in North Florida has been disappointing overall in our experience. That is until we ate at the Raintree Restaurant. My wife, adult daughter and I had the best meal. Everything from the wine list to the entrees and very good desserts were exceptional. The service was prompt and courteous. The price is high but we got what we paid for.5/12/2013 12:00:00 AMmother's dayExcellent lunch but food arrived cold and we had to send it back but otherwise everything was delicious.5/12/2013 12:00:00 AMOustanding Restaurant!!This was our second visit and it was not disappointing.

I highly recommend.5/9/2013 12:00:00 AMPicked because wanted morePicked because wanted more than the resaurant that caters to the vacationers since it was my husbands birthday.
The atmosphere was nice and we did sit inside, so not as noisy as outside on deck. Prompt with seating, inside nicely furnished, . I ordered meat well done and it was definitly not well done,maybe medium. I did tell the waitress and she did give us free dessert which was nice to compensate for the meat. next time would probably get a different entree.
but all in all i would recommend this restaurant..4/27/2013 12:00:00 AMWe were blessed to have anWe were blessed to have an incredible dinner, great ambiance and service that was wonderful.

We especially enjoy dining on the enclosed porch. The food has been very good, and they have been willing to accommodate special requests such as low sodium meals. The wait-staff has always been attentive; and our recent waitress, Laura, did an excellent job in making our dinner an exceptional occasion.4/13/2013 12:00:00 AMHave now been 6 times in lastHave now been 6 times in last year.

When we arrived they did not have any porch seating available. We traveled 2 hours so did stay and ate inside. If that ever happens again we would leave.
Al else was delightful. Noise was excessive.3/23/2013 12:00:00 AMThis was our second visitThis was our second visit and it was as good as the first time we went. Delicious prime rib, salads and great wine choice. The waitress was wonderful, knowledgeable, and very helpful. We can't wait to go back. Great spot for families.3/23/2013 12:00:00 AMFor the last twenty yearsFor the last twenty years I've been visiting the Raintree whenever I'm in St. Augustine. It's actually my favorite restaurant...it's so quaint and elegant at the same time. The food is amazing and the service is always the best. I hope they're around for at least another twenty years!3/23/2013 12:00:00 AMWe had a wonderful and relaxingWe had a wonderful and relaxing dinner.

Very good food in a lovely atmosphere. I think we'll be going there again soon.3/17/2013 12:00:00 AMCharmingIt was dusk, the outside lighting and landscape was luminous and inviting. If the weather conditions permitted, we would have eaten dinner outside. Such a charming place. The staff was friendly and courteous. We saw a window with a view. The staff was very accommodating, no problem changing tables. My husband had his first beef wellington and I baked tilapia. Since this was the first beef wellington...it will be the benchmark for more to come. We really enjoyed the food and ambiance of the restaurant. We even struck up a conversation with another couple visiting the area. Therefore, great company to boot!3/13/2013 12:00:00 AMThe entree I had chosen onThe entree I had chosen on line was no longer on the menu but the chef created the meal for me anyway. It was wonderful. Rarely do I leave a restaurant with definite plans to return but Raintree is in that category.3/12/2013 12:00:00 AMWe were celebrating a friend'sWe were celebrating a friend's 50th birthday with brunch at the Raintree. We sat outside in the gazebo and had a WONDERFUL time. Our waiter was absolutely fantastic - he was extremely attentive, funny and very personable. He made the brunch even that much better for us. The food was wonderful - there was a very good selection off the brunch tables (something for everyone - and everything for our group)! :) and the taste was terrific! We will definitely be coming back (from Jacksonville) to try other dining experiences at this restaurant3/10/2013 12:00:00 AMReally good food. But the policies?I almost opted for another restaurant because of the 15% gratuity automatically added which I find distasteful, as well as a bump in prices on weekends which smacks of greed, but am plsd we came. This was a really good meal- My shrimp & lobster pasta was excellent, my wife found her duckling to be nicely prepared. We both ordered apps which were good {soup, mac and cheeze} but certainly not necessary given the size of the entres. The noise level was not bad considering it was pretty busy. Our server was friendly and efficient. The dining area was quite nice. The quality of food would bring me back, tho the afformentioned objections would certainly point me elsewhere.3/9/2013 12:00:00 AMWaitress Laura did an outstandingWaitress Laura did an outstanding job.
