Nalu's Tropical Take Out

St Augustine


St Augustine may not be Hawaii, but the weather sometimes does a fair approximation, and that's when we like to hit up this takeout stand (which, to be fair, is wonderful whatever the weather). Grab a seat on a bench and order some sashimi, fish tacos or shrimp quesadillas, and leave room for poke (marinated raw fish salad).
