Saint Augustine Ocean and Racquet 1206​附近的餐廳

Everything was perfect—from the service, to the ambience, the cocktails, and the food. This was our first time trying their food, and I could not have been more pleased. It was fresh, quick, and delicious. Highly recommend. One of my new favorites in St. Augustine.

For a Monday evening it was max capacity likely because of the St Augustine nights for lights. We were seated within 5 minutes of the reservation and the food was excellent as usual. The waiter despite having multiple tables was on the ball and the service was excellent.

La pizza estaba muy quemada y también lagsaña, la luz muy tenue, de resto el ambiente del restaurante muy bueno y su atención

Starter – Gougeres (Gruyère cheese puffs with mornay sauce): The puff pastry was light and airy texture complimented the creamy rich flavor of the Gruyère created the perfect balance between the two. The pairing of the creamy mornay sauce added a bit of savory depth to the dish giving you a decadent cheesy warmth with every bite. This will open up your taste buds and set the tone for the rest of your visit. —- Appetizer – Soup A L’oignon (Veal Broth, Comte, Croutons): Chef’s spin on French onion soup really breaks the stigma of what one would expect in a traditional French onion soup with the Veal broth providing a very rich flavorful base stock for the dish. The cheese is very different from a traditional Gruyère as it’s creamier and not as overpowering. My only criticism is the broth masks the taste of the onions a bit, but not being a traditional French onion soup it really stands alone as a signature staple for the restaurant. —— Entrée – Steak Au Poivre (filet medallions, cognac pepper sauce, pommes aligot): The filet was cooked perfectly to temperature (requested Medium Rare) providing a melt in your mouth tenderness that is comparable to any high end steak house. The richness of the sauce was very complementary adding a smoky depth and sweetness from the cognac. The pommes aligot, is a traditional French dish with bring mashed potatoes together with cheese, butter, and creamy creating a velvety texture and a comforting balance of boldness from the sauce. The only criticism would be the whole peppercorn was a bit intense in ways taking away from the perfection of flavors on the plate. —— Dessert – Pot De Crème (dark chocolate, chantilly cream, sea salt): Speechless. That doesn’t happen very often. It was pure heaven.

What a great experience and meal. The sorbet palate cleanser before the main course and that bread were really wonderful touches. We will be back and thank you for the birthday dessert!
