Southewest Stuffed Avocados
Outstanding!! I wish I could make these at home. The combination of flavors is magical and one of the best I have tasted in a long time. Do yourself a kindness and check these out - you will not be disappointed!
Sweet Potato Quesadilla
My favorite dish...so far! We love this cozy, quaint St. Auggie gem!
Jerk Chicken Taco
Today, my wife and I were both out running errands and decided to meetup at the Back 40/Urban Fresh located in South Mandrian. The start was slow, there wasn't a huge crowd for lunchtime but then again that's a sign of the time amidst an ongoing pandemic. Upon entering I immediately went into the restroom to restore my levels of comfort. I was surprised that no one had visited the table to take drink orders. Its reasonable to say that the waitress later identified as Melissa (and trainee) were awaiting my return to the table before approaching. Honestly, I was only in the little boy's room for less than 4 mins. Nonetheless, once making contact, Melissa and her trainee created a warm, welcoming encounter and provided outstanding customer service. In fact, it is service such as this that I applaud. My wife decided on the chicken wrap with a Fruit Cove Fizz and I opted for dual tacos (Chimichurri Pork and Jerk Chicken) with an Arnold Palmer. In my opinion, the drinks are usually a prelude of the meal to come. If the drinks are tasteful and to your liking, then in most cases- note most not all, the meal is only an amplification for the taste sensors. In our case my method was spot on. The food was fantastic! I've had tasty tex-mex before and I've even had good tacos let's just say I wasn't expecting such a well-rounded flavorful surprise. The restaurant remained unbusy so, a reasonable conversation with our waitress was well received. Again, reinforcing the welcoming atmosphere. The trifecta of the afternoon was the overall price for good food, service and conversation. The establishment was pretty reasonable. As previously mentioned, it is service such as this that I applaud. Mellissa, thanks for everything and keep up the great work! BZ!
Veggie Crunch Wrap
JUST AMAZING!!! I get this (every time I go there!) with their Chili (also vegetarian). Both heat up perfectly at home if there are leftovers.
Jerk Chicken Tacos
Solid. Love Jerk chicken. This version "not" too spicey so go for it. Potato Salad side was very good. Love the ambience and Trivia Nights. We'll be back!
Sante Fe Chicken
Jerk chicken not grilled Cajun, curry dressing, add bacon
Shrimp Curry
Best salad ever.... Succulent shrimp, great veg mix and the dressing is over the top! So good I could eat it with a spoon!!!
Cuban
FULL ON FLAVOR! I can understand why it's a best selling sandwich...SUPERB!
Island Bowl
I absolutely love this restaurant!!! I was hesitant at first but have had many items from the menu and love them all. The buffalo chicken wrap, avocado blt, island bowl with Cajun shrimp, chili and shrimp tacos just to name a few, were all delicious! My kids are a huge fans and that says a ton because they are both extremely picky! I will continue to visit when we chose to dine out.
Key West Tuna Taco
Amazing food every time. So fresh. My favorite place in St Augustine
