Columbia Restaurant

If you're looking for authentic Spanish food, this is NOT the place to be. It's more of a Cuban Spanish mix with their own touch. Not bad, really. The staff is a bit on the rude side but not horrible. Great for photos though.

Recently we had a company party at the St. Augustine FL location which was seated upstairs. Aside from the temperature being too hot, they wouldn't open windows to cool the place off. While our waitress did a great job, they were certainly understaffed knowing weeks in advance we were coming. I thought the resturant was more upscale until a speech was given by our management; when downstairs the waitstaff singing happy birthday, blatantly at the top of their lungs ~ it then felt more like a typical over priced chain of resturants. For those that had the steak or chicken, there were nothing but raves. As for the Paella served, it came out in one enormous pan and was served out on plates. If you were served first, at best you got a couple pieces of shellfish but for the most part; half served got high priced rice with half a lemon.
