Items like their butter dishes, creamers and some of the plates from Fernandina Clay, to clams from New Smyrna, to produce from the Jacksonville area and glassware from recycled wine bottles are a reflection of those values. The Coast logo symbolizes the Atlantic Ocean, land and dunes, and its shape represents gathering, or the coming together of friends and family.

Mediocrity at its Best
We wanted a nice venue to have lunch with a friend. We both had the BLT and she had a salad.
Mediocre, at best. Since this is at the Ritz Carlton, I was expecting much better.
The salad looked like it had been sitting on the grocery shelf minutes before. For an area known for fresh seafood, the shrimp were tiny and without flavor.
How do you screw up a BLT, you may ask. Stack three slices of white toast atop each other. Put a single strip of bacon between the first two, and a single piece of lettuce and a thin slice of tomato between the next two slices. Use no condiments, and serve it cold on a plate.
Will not return here. Any fast food dump would have provided food superior to this.
The service was fine.
Best breakfast around!
We stayed at the Ritz Carlton & ate breakfast there every morning! The buffet was fresh & omelets cooked to order! Service was exceptional! Highly recommend!
Over rated
Had reservations and upon entering there were two birthdays being celebrated and the noise was intolerable so we asked to be seated outside. The noise level was much better, the kids were everywhere and flys.
The service was worse than the noise. We were seated and after about 10 minutes we asked that our waiter be located so we could at least order drinks.
The drinks: They were good - not excellent but way over priced.
The menu: selection was very limited. My husband had beef tenderloin that was slightly over cooked and dry and the potatoes were mushy / wet. I had salmon that was good enough but the sides were awful. Also had the tomato / mozzarella salad and it was not very good. The mozzarella was dry and the tomatoes were cut was too thick with not nearly enough balsamic in the presentation.
Service: Terrible service. Ultra slow in every regard.
Not really good - mixed reviews by our group
I got a wedge salad with ranch. Their ranch dressing tasted bottled to me. I could have still eaten the salad, but it had brown dots all over the lettuce, which was unappetizing. Some of our group thought the food was okay, but overall - we ate there twice during our stay at the hotel, and the service is great but the food is just not all that good. My husband got a burger and it had a funky taste - weird sauce or something, but he couldn't eat it.
Not what ordered
Ordered the flounder but they brought me grouper which was overcooked. They did bring me another dish out that was cooked well but I am not sure it was flounder. They rectified this by giving us a desert which was very good.
