I ate at St. Johns River Steak & Seafood located in the Sanford Marina. This location has been host to several different restaurants, none of which seem to survive very long. This includes two which have been featured on this blog before:
Limoncellos and
Efes Turkish Restaurant. Downtown Sanford has been booming lately and the marina is being redeveloped, so hopefully this bodes well for the survival of St. Johns River Steak & Seafood.
I ordered the Key West Combo. This dish included jerk mahi and shrimp in a honey mustard sauce, along with conch fritters, rice, and broccoli. The mahi and shrimp were very good, although I've had much better conch fritters elsewhere.
There was a birthday at our table so the restaurant brought out a huge slice of chocolate-peanut butter cake. For a surprise slice of cake, there were no complaints!
Thanks to all 31 guests who showed up Sunday to hear me play. It was a pleasure sharing a beautiful afternoon, memories and music with you. I know you enjoyed the food, atmosphere and beautiful view of Lake Monroe. I look forward to more times like this! Special thanks to our 96 year old guest of honor, Dora Gardner... a friend and fan for over 50 years!
