The Reef, originally called Comptons, was built by the Usina family on a beautiful piece of oceanfront property, owned by the family for generations, located on tranquil North Beach, three miles north of the Usina Bridge. Comptons opened in 1989 and enjoyed great success for the next ten years. It closed in 1999 due to the ill health of Mr. Compton and hurricane damage. There are few remaining true Oceanfront restaurants in Northeast Florida, and of those, The Reef, commands the most spectacular views. Sit at any table inside and the view is dynamic to say the least, or enjoy the recently rebuilt and expanded deck where you not only look out at The Ocean, you listen to it too as the waves break and the birds cry. To complement this vista Chef Denzel Aponte' has created a menu primarily of fish and seafood balanced with beef, poultry pasta and creative specials, always fresh and sourced locally whenever possible.

    A busy Valentines Day evening but service and food was spot on,…..well organized and cheerful people. Menu is limited but they had specials to encourage repeat diners. Watching the mixologists do their thing is true art! Highly recommend and one of the few restaurants in this city that take reservations to make everything easey peasey.

    Best hamburgers and sandwiches my wife and I have enjoyed in a while. We had a house chardonnay and a pinot noir. Home made bread and rolls. I also had a tasty garden salad with the balsamic vinegarette. Flat bread was light and delicious. Very reasonably priced. Service was spot on.

    The Reef is a great place for lunch, dinner or to hang at the bar for a drink. The setting is beautiful with magnificent views of the ocean. Our server was attentive and very knowledgeable about the food and beverage offerings. Had the blackened Mahi tacos which were delish. Love this place.
