About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Charming
  • Great for fine wines
La Nouvelle is the next story in our culinary journey by Michael Lugo. This opportunity to bring French Nouveau cuisine to our city has us so excited. Bringing to the helm Matthieu Landillon from the coastal city of Marseille, La Nouvelle allows us to explore classic French Bistro fare with an elevated edge. The atmosphere will lead you to the streets of Paris without leaving St. Augustine.

    While I cannot remember our servers name I can tell you her service was excellent. Great wine list as expected from a Lugo restaurant. The chefs and cooks did a great job preparing the meals and keeping the French tradition alive. Do not miss the escargot as it’s one of the best we’ve had outside France. The mussels and fries (moules frites) was absolutely delicious but a lot of food! Be hungry. Try it. You won’t be disappointed.

    La Nouvelle was fantastic from start to finish. Every single bite was incredible, and the wine selections were perfect. There wasn’t a single thing I would change.

    Food was absolutely fantastic, portion sizes were more than enough. Star of the show however was Dean, our waiter - such a friendly, knowledgable and down to earth guy. Thanks so much!! We’ll be back.

    Very pleasant brunch. Good menu and had several chef specials. Wine selection was quite good. Fresh made muffins and croissants were available. Indoor seating was a little crowded, but everyone was very respectful and it didn't impact the experience.Lobster bisque was excellent. Chef special Benedict with smoked salmon was perfectly cooked - may have been a tad salty, but didn't really detract from the dish. Muffin we had was very tasty, but a bit doughy. We will definitely return and try some of the many other menu options.

    We absolutely loved our brunch here at La Nouvelle, our first visit. The setting in a historic home in Lincolnville is charming. Service is exemplary with everyone attentive and kind. Best of all is the food which was to die for. We will definitely be back and bringing friends! Highly recommend if you enjoy authentic French food, beautifully prepared and served.

    Quite simply one of the best meals I have ever had. This ace is really that good and worth every penny. I am thankful that they are here in St. Augustine and wish them every success.

    Nice spot, good food and an unbelievable wine list and sommelier to assist with your selections. Tables for two are very small which needs to be changed and the chairs aren't real comfortable. Staff was great, bathrooms spotless and we will be back.

    The food is fabulous. I love the branzino with haricot verts and almond. The fish was very tender. Baguettes with French butter was also a hit. My husband loved the cheesy mashed potatoes.
