    We had a party of 6 with one waitress and she did a phenomenal job. Extremely attentive and helpful. I arrived last so I unfortunately didn’t capture her name. Food was delicious and the ambiance was amazing.

    My wife and I just completed a long weekend in St. Augustine. The highlight of that trip was our dining experience at La Cocina. The atmosphere was wonderful and the food was absolutely excellent as was the San Sebastian wine. We would like to give a special, well deserved, shout out to our server, Javier who was more than excellent. He made our dining experience truly memorable! We will be visiting St. Augustine again in the not too distant future and will be certain to dine at La Cocina again. Many thanks for a wonderful evening!

    What a wonderful evening we had! Our server, Gina, was excellent. Our meal was served at a perfect pace. The escargot appetizer was the best I've ever ordered anywhere previously. My husband and I were quite pleased with our filet mignon entrees and accompaniments. Lattes were also quite special. The background music was quietly perfect dinner music. This was our first time dining here, and we do look forward to returning.

    The host was sullen, no energy. Cracking his knuckles the whole way to the table. Biting his finger nails/fingers in his mouth later on. The server Gina was very professional and thoughtful. She was great. Nice touch with the customized reserved sign in the table and happy birthday plate for dessert. The pear salad was nice, but could have been great; was almost all lettuce- some more Gorgonzola and pear would have been great. Both filet mignon were fantastic. Ambiance is weird. It was like being in a library, too quiet. Maybe louder music when it’s so slow. Overall, it was a nice celebratory dinner and Gina kept it that way. TY!
