Sorry! We don't have any recommendations for Northeast Coast right now.
The ocean, St. Johns River, and numerous lakes and smaller rivers teem with fish, and so, naturally, seafood dominates local menus. Northeast Florida also has fine-dining restaurants, and its ethnic eateries include some excellent Middle Eastern places. And then there are the barbecue joints—more of them than you can shake a hickory chip at.
Ravenous regulars dominate the tightly packed tables at this warm, family-owned restaurant in a nondescript strip mall. Since 1997, chef–owner Aurathai Sellas, who might just be the most cheerful person in the restaurant business, has prepared the exotic dishes of her homeland, including pla lad prig (whole hot and spicy fish), goog thod (crispy shrimp), chicken in peanut sauce, and pad Thai.
