St. Augustine, Fla. – Beaches on Vilano opened its doors on Vilano Beach in May 2011, confident it would be a prosperous venture. Despite a relatively good winter so far, we have not been given the full year to continue the momentum we have created; therefore, we are closing our doors Feb. 1, 2012.

“Rick and I have thoroughly enjoyed providing our customers’ with the quality experience, closing the doors was not an easy decision, but under the current circumstances, it’s the only option. We have had such wonderful customers at Beaches on Vilano that I want to continue to offer some of their favorite menu items at my other restaurant, Donovan’s Irish Pub,” stated Bellantoni.

Donovan’s Irish Pub will be offering "Beaches Favorites," a menu section which will be offered for a limited time. Some great favorites that will be included are the Blackened Fish Sandwich, Surf & Turf with shrimp or scallops and Fish Tacos.
