   This is an excellent restaurant connected to the beautiful Renaissance hotel. It was beautifully decorated for the holiday. We were seated in a quiet spot as requested. Kendall our waitress was very pleasant . Making nice suggestions and attentive. The wine by the glass was somewhat limited but with very nice choices. We had the Malbec and Cabernet and not disappointed. Fish and chips was above average and the steak and frites was terrific and cooked a perfect medium rare. Nice way to end our evening in St Augustine

   Overpriced for what? I’m not sure. The food was barely edible and flavorless. The decor is uninspired. Seems like all decisions were made here by people with too much money and too little taste. Never again.

   Obviously, the reviews are selectively posted. DO NOT BELIEVE THE REVIEWS!! I visited this restaurant based on the reviews. Ordered the Bolognese. The pasta was dry, cold and flavorless. I also ordered the chicken wings. They were not "crispy" as advertised, lacked seasoning. The Short-ribs were a little better, but not by much. The only thing that was decent was the wine. Overall, not worthwhile. Will not be returning.

   Teresa, we're truly sorry to hear about your disappointing experience . We take pride in our food and it's clear we fell short during your visit. We appreciate your feedback on the Bolognese, chicken wings, and the short-ribs, and we're glad to hear you enjoyed our wine selection. We take your comments seriously and will use them to improve. We at the property level have no control over what reviews are shown, to my knowledge they are all visible unless a guests selects to send a private message but this is all managed by Open Table. We hope you will give us another chance in the future to provide you with a better dining experience.
