Restaurants

In a town with as much tourist traffic as St. Augustine, there are, of course, a fair number of "tourist trap" restaurants. But on the whole, the food here, even at the popular eateries, is fairly priced and of good quality.

The historic district has a branch of Tampa's famous Columbia, 98 St. George St., at Hypolita Street (tel. 904/824-3341). Like the original in Ybor City, this one sports Spanish architecture, including intricate tile-work and courtyards with fountains.
