    Amazing dining experience! Food was incredible from start to finish. Onion Tartin and French onion soup were excellent to start off with. The Steak Au Poivre and the Wagyu NY Strip were cooked perfectly to temperature and delicious. We finished the night with the Lavender Crème Brûlée which was creamy and decadent. Amelia was an incredibly attentive and informative server which helped perfect the whole dining experience. Definitely a place not to be missed during your visit to St. Augustine!

    Overall, the food and chef's creations were excellent, truly fine dining. Service was excellent - well informed on the menu, had opinions on wine selection and were attentive during the evening. Definitely recommend. One detail - For dining at this level and expense - would think they would have a full liquor license.
