Collage Restaurant

This is as good as it gets! This is one of the best meals I have ever eaten! We ordered the Burrata appetizer to start. It was a goat cheese burrata and it was fantastic! For dinner we had the Veal Scallopini and the renowned Lobster Ravioli. It is deserving of every accolade it has been awarded! The ravioli was so fresh and tender and topped with a great lobster tail. The veal was great and the portions were well worth the value!
I am so happy we decided to eat here. I made the reservation a month out and the earliest time available was 8:45pm. It was later than we prefer to have dinner but it was worth the wait!
Make sure to visit Collage!

I went here with my gf for Valentine’s Day and had one of the best meals of my life.
Tenderloin Bruschetta — So delicious. The smoked bacon flavor comes through in a big way!
Carrot Bisque — Normally a carrot bisque might just be «pretty good» but this one stood out for the addition of datil peppers. I love spicy food and this one was perfect.
Lamb Chops With Sherry Green Peppercorn Sauce — Fantastic. Coupled with the blue cheese gratin and it was a perfect entrée.
Slow Braised Beef Short Ribs — This was my gf’s entrée and she said it might be the best dish she’s ever had. That’s a pretty big statement since her brother is a highly paid and sought after chef! I’d say it’s the best dish I’ve ever had.
Double Chocolate Bread Pudding — This dessert was perfect for two people and absolutely delicious.
Two glasses of wine + two beers + two apps + two entrees + one dessert + tip (20% for incredible service) = $ 160
I don’t usually go out for fancy, expensive dinners but when I do, everything better be on point. Collage covered all bases from service to food to ambiance and I have no regrets at all in choosing them for our V-​Day dinner. And we’re still talking about it.

Went there for my boyfriend’s birthday. Nice little restaurant. Great service. Wonderful food !!! I get the happiness feeling after the first bite of my pasta. Good food brings a smile on your face !! Will be back soon :)

Nice atmosphere — well staffed — nice dinner! Make reservations you won’t be disappointed !

The food was wonderful. We had homemade the mozzarella plate for appetizer and shrimp bisque. My husband had lobster ravioli and I had the steak. They were both amazing. The food is worth every penny. We had Scott for our server and he was knowledgable and on point.

This place is HIGHLY overrated. The space is small and cramped, and smells funky.
The waiter was really zombie like, shuffled around, grunted, and never made eye contact. Just stared at the floor. The food was not good, had 4 dishes, and all were way too sweet. We were offered bread, and it never arrived. Go elsewhere.

Collage Restaurant is the perfect place for a romantic dinner complete with a formal atmosphere, excellent service, and delicious food. If you plan to dine here I recommend making reservations well in advance, a week if possible. I had the Escargot and the Homemade Lobster Ravioli and both were phenomenal. The Escargot was perfectly tender and served with tender mushrooms, a flakey pastry and a lightly sweet and flavorful brandy cream sauce. The Lobster Ravioli was perfectly al dente and topped with a flavorful pesto cream sauce, tender shrimp and a lobster tail. Dining at this restaurant is a little pricy. The cost for two glasses of wine, an appetizer, and two entrees ran just over $ 125 before tip. However, the quality of the food and atmosphere lived up to the price. Overall, I highly recommend Collage Restaurant.

I wish I could give this place 6 stars. I had a wonderful glass of Bella glos pinot noir that was nicely priced. The gf had a very good Pinot Grigio. We started with a shrimp app neither one of us could pronounce the name. To be honest the app left a lot to be desired. I wasn’t impressed with the app but then the entrée came. I had the lobster stuffed ravioli that came with 5 lobster stuffed ravioli, 2 shrimp, and a 5oz lobster tail and let me tell you what, that was the juiciest best lobster tail I have ever tasted. My meal was perfection. The gf got the fresh catch which was mahi mahi (a fish so nice they named it twice). It was flavorful and savory and the lemon spinach Cous Cous was a great touch. If I’m ever back in this city this is the first place I’m sprinting too and knocking everyone over in my way

Only down side was that it only had beer and wine. But the food was fantastic. Filet with Gorgonzola onion sauce was great. Filet cooked perfectly. We added on Maine Lobster tail and that was amazing and a must! We had shrimp app and was delicious as well. Diver scallops with pumpkin purée and chorizo was fabulous. We will be back!

This place is a must! I had the steak with truffle butter, and my husband had the grouper with the pecan parmesan crust, as did our friend. Our friend’s date had the diver scallops, which was fabulous but a bit of a small portion. We will definitely go back.
I must correct an error on my part. I previously stated they had two seatings, which I misunderstood. They have regular reservations throughout the evening.
Anyway, the tenderloin bruschetta is amazing!

We think this was probably the best meal we have ever had.
Atmosphere, service and food were all off the chart wonderful! They have a large wine list, we chose a Banfi Rosso di Montalcino, ‘II which was moderately priced but delicious. Our appetizer was a special that night, foie gras followed by their Autumn Harvest which had greens, beats, thinly sliced apples and spiced sugared nuts. The husband had their warm goat cheese salad. Entrees were beef tenderloin with Demi glaze and the braised short ribs. Both accompanied by their purée potatoes and roasted root vegetables.
I cannot overstate how wonderful it all was. FYI… we were lucky to get in on short notice. Open Table showed them booked for the night, but we called after 4:00 pm and they had a slot for us. Enjoy!

One of the best dining experiences we’ve have had in many years. Small and quaint, unexpected old town charm hidden within the scientific city. The staff were very pleasant, service was exceptional and the food was beyond good. We went to celebrate our anniversary and after finding out they treated us to a complimentary slice of cake at the end. That definitely sealed the deal for my wife. Looking forward to going back, especially after learning that it was recently voted one of the top 100 restaurants in the US this year. I couldn’t agree more. Great place for celebrating any special occasion.

I had such high hopes for this place as my fellow Unilocalers gave it great reviews and two other people whom I had mentioned to where we were going for dinner gave it glowing remarks.
The food was outstanding, yes, and the intimate ambiance was just perfect for our occasion — celebrating our 1 year wedding anniversary, but my husband and I were really disappointed in our experience because of the other patrons dining around us.
Upon walking in, it was almost as if the needle on the record had stopped and we were immediately given glaring stares from people dining in the front room which followed us into the back dining room and didn’t stop until we left.
I noticed it but kind of shook it off and wanted to attribute it to us being the «younger crowd» except that we are in our mid-​30s and I don’t consider myself to be in that group but compared to everyone else dining there, 55+, I guess we were. I know it wasn’t what we were wearing — I had on a dress that had a high neckline and went down to my knees and my husband had on a collared shirt with a suit jacket, dress shoes and dark dress jeans.
Throughout our entire meal, I felt like my husband and I couldn’t be ourselves and have a nice time with each other. We felt like we were barely allowed to talk since anything above a whisper earned us more glaring stares and bad looks.
It was a shame because the food was as delicious as we had hoped and the service was friendly and attentive. From the warm fresh bread served with a whole roasted garlic clove, to the escargot, mango sorbet and lobster ravioli, everything came out to perfection. The escargot was even better than the one we had in Paris! I was unable to eat all of my ravioli so I took the rest back to the hotel as leftovers and ate them cold the next day since we didn’t have a microwave in our hotel and it still tasted great!
I still give the place 4 stars because the restaurant did live up to the hype foodwise, but I just wish we would not have had all those ugly looks from the other people around us which would have made for a more memorable meal. Now all that we remember is the snobby old people that hated us for no reason.

Wonderful! The service, the atmosphere the food! Everything was amazing. We called ahead to make reservations and the squeezed us in as a favor. I’m so glad they did!
We went for our anniversary and our waiter Scott made great recommendations as to what to order and his service was 5 stars in itself. We will be back for sure!

This is an excellent local restaurant. Make reservations!
The restaurant itself is pretty small and intimate, and the waitstaff is wonderful and attentive. Décor is cozy.
Food was very good, much better than expected in such a touristy town (probably because this is not a place for tourists!). We started with the garlic shrimp, which were large and perfectly cooked. The sauce was awesome with bread. A nice touch was that they brought out roasted garlic and basil infused olive oil to go with the bread.
An even better touch was the palate cleanser in between the appetizer and the main course. We each got a tiny scoop of mango lime sorbet, and it was delicious and did its job.
For my main course, I had one of the daily specials, the beef two ways. There was filet, which melted in my mouth, and short rib ravioli. The ravioli stuffing was a little under seasoned to me. But it was still an impressive homemade pasta. And the porcini sauce and veggies complimented the beef very well. My husband had the lobster ravioli, and I think his lobster was a tiny bit overcooked, but the pasta was great. My uncle had the veal, and he ate it all up, so I guess it was good!
The dessert list looked good, but we had no more room for food.
The wine list was excellent and very well priced.

DO NOT MISS THIS! We were snubbed by another local restaurant at 8:15 and called Collage in hopes we would get in. They said they could seat us right away! (Sunday on Memorial Day Weekend) We walked over from the disappointed restaurant and they sat us by 8:45 which was not bad at last minute we believed. While we waited that short time, we were offered the wine list if we would like and they were quick to make room for our table.
Once we sat, we had Scott as our waiter who was on top of everything. We both ordered wine and the Burrata which was goat cheese and mozzarella cheese with baguettes to dip… YUM! They also served us bread with basil infused olive oil and a roasted garlic cluster. YUM AGAIN!
Next up was dinner. My husband ordered the Fresh Catch and I got the Filet Magnifico. I tasted his and it was fantastic but MINE! OMG!!! Best I’ve had in a very long time!!!
We had no room for dessert which all looked amazing passing our table but I did order a cappuccino and my husband got the 20 year port. He seemed to enjoy it and my coffee was fresh and tasty.
You will NOT be disappointed in any way coming here. Bring a little extra money for this fantastic experience. Our bill turned out to be about $ 130.00 before tip for the two of us but again… don’t miss this!

Cute Spanish, French, and Italian restaurant on Hypolita St. There are 2 dinning areas. Large dinning room and a small dinning room (5 small tables). We were informed that the small dinning room is intimate and it was upon arrival, but they put a large party of 10 people in the small dinning room and it was so loud (like Cheesecake Factory).
Service is prompt.
Food is average and very small portion. Lamb lollipop was good for appetizer. Lobster ravioli, the lobster was very tough. Scallop c corn and pepper was only 3 small scallops. I left feeling hungry.

The wife and I were made appointments by a great B&B in St Aug. (see review).
We had reservations for 830pm but the wife was hungry so we went early and hoped they would seat us.
We arrived told them and they said come on in we are expecting you with out any wait and a smile.
We were fortunate enough to be assigned Nicole who was great, nice steady and consistent service with a friendly demeanor could have smiled more but… Still great!
We haved moved to Charlotte, NC now and will miss the ooportunity to return as soon as we hoped.
Please check it out and tell them a UnilocalER recommended you!

Perfect romantic dinner. From the bread at the beginning to the dessert, everything was delicious.
TIP: Make reservations BUT if you’re like me and want to go-​with-​the-​flow, try walking in even if they say they are booked. We were seated right away since we arrived just when they opened their doors at 5:30PM.

Second year in a row that my boyfriend and I visited for Valentine’s Day dinner and everything was as great, if not better! I love this restaurant because of its quaint feeling and classy ambiance.
Our server, Scott was excellent. Courteous, knowledgable, and made us feel well taken care of. Of course I had to go to with Burrata for an appetizer and was not disappointed. Goat cheese stuffed mozzarella– a cheese lover’s dream. Paired with apricot and walnut, the combination is heavenly.
For a main dish I went with shrimp and scallops all’imperiale which was tossed in cream sauce and linguine. The shrimp were a little small but still good. And the scallops were cooked to perfection.
And of course for dessert we shared double chocolate bread pudding which was out of this world. Even my boyfriend who isn’t too into chocolate loved it.
Again, I can’t say enough good things about the wait staff, who make a great effort to ensure your experience is amazing. Collage is our Valentines Day tradition now.
