We were staying in Fernandina Beach so this eatery was definitely out of our way- especially since the quickest way to get there was by taking a Ferry which we had missed , so had to go the long way around to get there. But my hubby had a restaurant.com certificate so we traveled. Well worth it! A bit noisy... More

This would be a fun place to go with friends, or after work, or a date night. I went with my husband. They had a bar on one side, which was really busy, and had a live musician playing. The restaurant was on the other side, so it was loud, but not so loud we couldn't hear ourselves. The decor... More

We choose North Beach Bistro based on some reviews I saw from a work website that offered a discount and some positive reviews. I'm happy to say we were pleased with the food and the service. They had a good menu that offered a wide selection of choices and their specials menu was even better. The food was very good... More

This is a chef owned restaurant and it shows. Chef Dave has personally selected the items that go on his menus. On this visit I had Blackened Triggerfish as my entree and fried Calamari as the appetizer. The Triggerfish was sublime. I really enjoyed this. I have had the Calamari before and it matched my expectations. As a complement I... More

Hosting a dinner for a large wedding party is daunting when you live in another town, but the staff of North Beach Bistro were extremely helpful and took the challenge in stride. Planning the menu was easy with the several suggestions we received from the Bistro, and, on the evening of the event, the staff made us feel we were... More

Became a favorite as soon as it opened.. Grilled octopus and bean salad should not be shared because you will never get any. Everyone else at the table will want more than a taste. Classic shrimp and grits is really good. My personal favorite is the pick your own combination seafood platter. Really fresh and well priced. Usually go earlier... More

This is our second time and it didn't disappoint. The service staff was fun and chatty, but left you alone when necessary. The wine list is has some different choices, which is nice. It is a little dark in the bar area, I believe that is for atmosphere but the lights could be turned up a little bit more. I... More

Stopped by here for brunch this weekend. Loved the fact that they have brunch served until 2pm on Sundays. We ordered the calamari appetizer (delicious) and got the crab cake benedict for the meal. Both had great flavor, and the egg was cooked to perfection. The crab cake was tasty, but I thought it could have used more crab (and... More

We had dinner last night at North Beach Bistro. The food was delicious; the service was friendly and attentive; the seating is comfortable and the atmosphere was perfect for a relaxing dinner with friends. We took advantage of Thursday Happy Hour and were able to get our wine 2-for-1 from the bar. We all enjoyed the white bean spread and... More
