I thought this restaurant was great. My boyfriend and I were hanging out in St Augustine this past week and needed to grab lunch, we were totally prepared to go to A1 Ale, but parking was limited and though we were walking that way I noticed Santa Maria. I used to eat in a similar seating when I was really young with my mom and of course was overcome with nostalgia. This place is right on the water, not beach front, but literally on the dock. So we decided to eat here.\r

I'm sure the host wanted to choke me, because it took three tries before we were at a table I was happy with, but if he was annoyed I couldn't tell at all. He was actually really friendly about it.\r

The server we had was really cool, very laid back and helpful when choosing our meals. My boyfriend had a chicken wrap and I had Caribbean Baha fish tacos, which were seriously freaking amazing.\r

The view was great and I had fun feeding the fish and birds from a little side area in the wall.\r

I highly recommend this place!
