This was my first time dining at the “Patio”.We happen to arrive at around 130 and the brunch menu on Sunday goes until 3 o’clock .What drew me to this restaurant or the incredible pictures of all the different dishes that reviewers had placed online along with a Google 4.8 review score , which is incredible in the service industry.It was a little tough to find a parking place, but we managed to land one a block over and it was a great walk in the heart of Fernandina Beach to see all the old houses, B&B inns .There are so many really cool looking restaurants. Just one block off of Main Street.There was a crowd when we showed up and we were told to expect a 40 minute wait so we settled into the bar and decided to sit at the bar and eat, which was first come first serve.Hiedi brought us a peach, Bellini, and a Well, garnished, bloody Mary that was so good I had two.The menu was extensive for brunch, and I could’ve chosen a half a dozen items and I think been happy with any of them. Bridget, not both had a hamburger well done. My choice was the goat cheeseburger and Bridget chose the patio burger which came with a fried egg. Both burgers came with home fries and were cooked to order.It was fun sitting right next to the kitchen and watching all of the food come out.After seeing all of the Benedict dishes and versions of poached egg with hollandaise, I could’ve gone with any of those.The avocado toast looked especially delicious and the beet salad was extremely popular.The roast beef sandwich with ajou dipping sauce was a big seller alsoThe facility was really neat along with the huge patio outside and live music. Fire pits, and circular couches made it all look so cozy.I’ll tell you what really turned me on was the picture of the rack lamb which one of the waitresses was kind enough to tell me that was not on the menu and was a specialty item for holidays and eventsFacility and venue I would give five starsBoring cocktails five starsService I would have to give five stores and say that it was definitely a team effort with all of the waitresses running food whenever it came up.The food we had was very good if I could give it four stars I would, but only a couple of the small details kept it from being five that being the Friday egg on Bridget hamburger was well done, and I think it should’ve been runnyAnd the avocado that came with the goat cheeseburger was not ripe and was extremely firm which kept me from enjoying it as much.There are so many options in Fernandina Beach to dine. I would definitely put this on my list of places to recommend with the caveat of try it and at least you can say you did, and if you like it, you can always go back⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Parking: Plan on a small search for a parking spot

We have been to many restaurants while vacationing here and by far The Patio checks all the boxes. Food, service, atmosphere, entertainment, etc.In our estimation, a must!!!

We were browsing around the town and wanted a place to have dinner before it started to pour and we walked down a little bit on a side street and found The Patio. We got a table under the tent and had a fabulous dinner. Loved the Flatbread appetizer and the Old Fashioneds were perfect. I had the Mahi- delish! And my husband had the snapper. My only complaint was we weren't told about the dinner specials - we heard another server explain them to the table next to us after we'd ordered.But we were very happy with our choices.The chocolate cake was the bomb!

Honestly the best meal I’ve had in the last 3 years! Do yourself a favor and belly up to the bar, order the blackened grouper, and hang out with Heidi. She’s the coolest and made me whole night!

So I'm reading all of these great reviews about this place and I have lived on this island for a while and we went the weekend of the boat show and of course they do not take reservation so they make you arrive and put yourself on a wait list which my family did and although it was predicted to rain all weekend, the patio was not ready for the weather. Did not set up their patio with their tents and coverings and then gave away our table which was for a party of eight mind you. Six of the people were there. I was in the car with my daughter who is 11 who was starving and because of the pouring rain I was 5 minutes late getting into the restaurant and they gave away the table to the people who were sitting outside who they did not prepare for and who needed to come inside to finish their food. Well this is understandable. The poor planning from the team in the weather caused my family who two of them are diabetics my 11-year-old who needed to eat and all of us without a table and then without a time when another table would be available for such a large party. We were understandably frustrated. No one could give us an answer. Connor, the manager was rude. We were soaking wet and I asked for the owner Scott. He proceeded to come over and yell at me. Get in my face continuously saying why were your entire party not here when we called you. They fully well knew the entire party was not there. I was 2 minutes away in the pouring rain and they use that as an excuse to give away the table. I have sent many people to this restaurant and although the food may be great, the service was terrible. This evening. The planning was terrible and the only owner was horrific and insulted me in front of everybody and yelled at me and then said I was no longer welcomed in his establishment! Because of their poor planning I was insulted and humiliated because I was fending for my family who had waited to come to this restaurant and whose table was given away and then was rude to and insulted and kicked out! Maybe it was because My family has an ethnic last name and they thought they could just bypass us for somebody a little better or a little more important. It is your job as a business to predict the needs for the evening. It is a busy weekend. It is predicted to rain and no customer deserves to be insulted and treated disrespectfully because they are trying to do best for their family. Shame on you! Yes I was upset because of how my family was treated but as a woman I feel very disrespected and very insulted by the way he screamed in my face! I feel racially profiled by this owner because he looked at the color of my family's skin and thought he could get other people in. Seeing the response from these unprofessional people is even worse. Your stall fully knew I was outside running in the rain and said it was ok and they would seat the party, anyone who was treated so poorly would have been upset as well and no one was upset by us they actually agreed. Your establishment is low class and treats women and children terribly and I will be consulting a civil rights attorney.

If we could give more stars we would! Natalie and the entire staff worked together the entire night accommodating us when the storm passed through when we were outside on the patio. The pineapple martini and oyster rockerfella appetizer was a terrific start! The suggestions of fish were spot on ! Blackened Grouper and pecan salmon with accompanying side were fabulous flavors ! Natalie and her suggestions were hand picked ! The "patio coffee " and Miss carols 7 layers chocolate cake ! Seriously you must try the patio when in Fernandina beach!10 stars out of 5

We had a great experience. Our server was friendly and attentive. The grouper sandwich was huge and delicious. The pizza appetizer was big too and one of the best I've ever tasted. I loved the outside atmosphere.

Officially the best restaurant experience of my trip. Ask for a fire pit table on the patio. Impeccable ambience.

The charcuterie board was more than enough for two people and that may have been the best margarita I've ever had.
