Restaurants near St. Johns National Wildlife Refuge

Everything about The Boathouse was on point. From the service down to all of the entries we had, everything was fantastic. My wife had the lobster roll and loved it. I had the Filet Mignon sliders and the baked potato and they were great as well. Drinks were also outstanding and from a value standpoint, we were very satisfied. There’s a reason the Boathouse is a standout restaurant, and tonight was another reason why we’ll be back.

Loves: The ingredients and presentation feel intentional vs just doing something for an aesthetic on social media. Food Recommendation’s: Risotto - because when are you going to eat truffle anywhere else. Lobster pasta - because omg so delicious. Lamb chops- so tender and that herbaceous sauce was everything. Critiques: Sometimes the seating arrangements can be weird but the staff will gladly move you if they have an open table. They will package your leftovers but they forgot my sauce so maybe just make sure you tell them everything you want. The sound level can also make it a little hard to have an intimate conversation. Overall: The food, drinks, atmosphere, and service are always fabulous! Make a reservation, even for weekday dinners.

A gluten sensitive diners dream! We have a gluten allergy diner and a celiac in our family and there was easily something for everyone on this menu. The food was delicious and our waiter was friendly and attentive. Thanks Caleb! While some of us were returning guests it was the first time for one us and he is fan for sure! Finally, good food at the Springs! :)

Luis our attendant was courteous and attentive of our requests. He made some recommendations of the menu. My spouse has some food allergies and they were very accommodating. The meatballs appetizers were incredibly tender and delicious. The main courses were plentiful and fulfilling. Thanks for a delightful dinner.

It was a good time but it always is! Food, drinks, service & trivia were all good; reservations were flawless; highly recommend giving them a try!
