“They use fish and oyster sauce so make sure you tell them you're vegan, they also cut the coconut milk in half in the curries using half and half. It only says coconut milk on the menu so it can be a little confusing. Over all we will go back. The atmosphere is clean and minimalist. And the food was delicious! The waiter was really nice and there wasn't that long of a wait time for food.“
“It was pretty quiet in there but I love the silence so it wasn’t an issue for me . My server , Lauren was so sweet and provided a lot of help when I was picking out food . The customer service was amazing and the food was even better ! I would recommend the nori wings they’re so good . I’ll definitely be back soon !!“
“I'm writing ANOTHER 5 star review. I've lived in the St Augustine area for over 10 years.The sushi, menu and prices are THE BEST in this area. I've never had better sushi from Jacksonville to Daytona!The quality, menu and restaurant styling level is comparable to what we experienced in London.The only place I'll go to for sushi now. ? “
“Tanks is always so good. Great local place. The sushi is always fresh and tasty. We usually get the Cali roll, dynamite roll, Godzilla roll, spicy tuna, salmon roll. Their hibachi meat is tender and not dry even when we ask for less sauce. Service is always courteous, chill and on it!“

“Order take out Saturday, all three entrees were cooked to perfection. The hibachi scallops and hibachi chicken were juicy and tender. The chicken udon was fantastic!! The dining area looks clean and comfortable. Strongly recommend checking this place out!!“
“The new World Golf Village location has excellent service and food. The place was jam packed but we were seated right away. The moment we sat down, the server brought soup and got our drink orders. Since it was opening weekend, they provided a free appetizer. We ordered our food and it came fairly quickly as well. The wait staff was moving. Excellent service, excellent food, and excellent management thus far.“
“It took my family here last week, and we had a good time here. We did encounter a problem during our visit, as our grouper was not cooked all the way. The waiter made it right by remaking the grouper, and after it was remade, it was fantastic. The crab Rangoon were also great, we also have one vegan in our group and he was able to find something that he likes here. Over the course of Christmas break partway through January we’ve ate here three times and we’ve enjoyed it every time.“
“Ate at the restaurant near St. Augustine beach. Nice restaurant- it's on the small side, maybe seating a dozen parties. Highly recommend reservations because it fills up fast and people were waiting a good amount of time to get in. Ambiance was nice but space here is limited so it felt a little crowded. Service was great. Greeted immediately and ongoing service was attentive- never lacked for drinks. Waitress was very friendly. Food took a little longer than expected to get but certainly worth the wait. Great sushi and Thai options. Sushi was fresh and really good.- we had both as an appetizer and entree as rolls and both were fantastic. We also had crab Rangoon as an appetizer which was some of the best I've had anywhere. Chicken Pad Thai was good- standard. Would say their "medium" spice was on the light side for heat. If you like heat would go with American hot. Red curry didn't quite hit the mark. Sushi is definitely the focus here and would highly recommend it. Great place and would not hesitate to recommend to you- just be sure to make reservations and on any given day of the week as you will need them to be able to walk in a get a table. Happy eating!“
“We were there on a slow night, and the staff was very friendly and attentive as we were one of the only tables there. Food was amazing! Most of us got the hibachi, and everything down to the way the rice and veggies were cooked was perfect. Very clean, nice smelling bathrooms, and soft music playing throughout the restaurant. 10/10.“
“Absolutely delicious. We went here during night of the lights for dinner and it was completely empty not a single customer. I was definitely unsure but so glad we did eat here. The food was so good and it was a very clean atmosphere. The service was great. Will definitely be coming back on my next visit!!!“
“Sherri may be the best of the 3 bartenders. She's engaging, efficient and knowledgeable. Tonight's Louisiana Oysters were a little small and paltry. No Blue Points, for sure. The main courses were great - the blackened sea scallops and the Flounder (catch of the day). Fantastic! This is a "must go" if you're in Villano, St. Augustine, or South PV!“
“Our visit to Green Papaya was nothing short of amazing! From the moment we stepped in, we were greeted by a fantastic environment that set the tone for a memorable experience. The lively ambiance, with the vibrant leds on the wall, added a playful touch that instantly captivated us.What truly made our time special was the enchanting under-the-sea theme that delighted both adults and kids alike. The little ones were absolutely mesmerized by the colorful creatures and fascinating decor, making it an unforgettable experience for them.Beyond the captivating atmosphere, the service was exceptional, and the food was simply delightful. Every dish we tried was bursting with flavor and made with utmost care. We can't wait to visit again and create more wonderful memories! Highly recommended.“
“Chef Tuna delivers an amazing Asian Bistro experience. If you love fusion and creative sushi rolls that dazzle your palette then this is the spot for you. The presentation of all dishes reflect Chef Tuna’s passion for his craft. I highly recommend the Skyline Shrimp which is an off menu item. Ginger Bistro also serves an amazing selection of Sake to pair with your entree. Highly recommend Ginger Bistro!!!“
“Ate dinner at the rooftop. Group plate was good and the southern chicken sandwich was good. Busy on a Sunday evening so have to be a bit patient. Ate at the bar and the bar tender was busy. We were in not hurry so just enjoyed to evening outdoors on the rooftop bar. I definitely recommend.Parking: Valet and free self parking options“
“The sushi is always good here. I think it’s better than a lot of the sushi I’ve tried here in St. Augustine. I’ve been to quite a few. We had the Green River Roll with seaweed wrap instead of the soy wrap, Red Corner Roll, Fire Belle Roll and the Dragon Roll. The Green River was my favorite and very delicious. My kids got avocado and eel rolls and they loved them. They also have the Japanese strawberry soda drinks with the balls you push down, and the kids loved those as well. The server was a gentleman and he was very attentive and nice. The overall atmosphere was nice, but a little loud because a big party was having a birthday. It was a Saturday night, so I recommend going on a weekday or for lunch if you want a quieter experience. I will definitely come back because their food is very fresh and very tasty. It was on the expensive side though. I remember when sushi rolls were in the $10-12 range, now it’s $15 at least a roll. We spent on food and drinks $150 including tip for a family of four.“
“We were so impressed by this place! The best Hibachi we've eaten anywhere in the country! Our sushi was delicious and presented perfectly! My steak was cooked amazingly and melted in my mouth! Our waiter, Harrison, was on top of it! He never let our glasses get empty or a dirty plate stay on our table!! You've got to try this!“
“Food is always awesome. And just so much of it!!EGER our chef was and is always so awesome, so funny and so entertaining and a top notch chef. Food he cooks is allllways hot and delicious!!! Thanks for the awesome service!!Kid-friendliness: It is very entertaining for the children and adult's“
“This place could be a good restaurant. However the staff lacked any kind of personalities. Food was good. Probably won’t go back as we didn’t really feel welcomed. Side note - went on a Friday night at 8:00 and not another soul in the restaurant. Not sure what that says ?♂️“
“Came here with my sister on a Saturday at 2pm! Food was delicious, service was almost immediate, price was completely affordable— we each got soup, dumplings, sushi, and hibachi, all for 35 bucks. Our servers were kind and quick!! DEFINITELY worth coming here. A perfect little hole in the wall.“
