Our menu specializes in a variety of seafood,steaks, chicken and pasta dishes as well as a vegetarian menu, appetizers and yummy desserts.

DId you know? Santa Maria Restaurant started out in 1763 as a landing for ships to dock at and unload cargo, back when St. Augustine was still a fledgling city. Almost 200 years later, Louis and Marguerite Connell opened a restaurant on the crumbling landing, fixing up the structure so that it still survives today. 

Interesting Fact: Some time in the mid 50s my grandfather made friends with a man who owned a boat that was a replica of the Santa Maria ship and allowed him to dock it behind the restaurant. People in town got into the habit of saying they were going to the Santa Maria and so he eventually changed the name of the restaurant.

Children are always welcome

Children are always welcome at The Santa Maria and our Kids Menu offers selections that even the pickiest of little eaters cannot refuse. The Connell family tradition of casual dining continues and reservations are not accepted. We have a first come, first serve policy. We open daily at noon.
