Food was pretty good! Service was definitely lacking in communication from hosts to service staff. We made a reservation at 7 and a server greeted our table by 7:15 after we made a busser aware we had not been greeted yet, so it made us feel rushed throughout the rest of our meal, as we had plans for a movie that night.
I will say that the Steak Frites was some of the most tender cooked steak I've had in awhile, we were definitely impressed with the quality of food and the portions were great size for the price.
I think just overall when the service is lacking and we feel rushed it definitely hinders the experience. We understand things happen, so maybe we will try again.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Stacey K.Townsend, DE4311Feb 4, 2024

Called the Augustine phone number listed, unfortunately no one answers a VM eventually picks up however dies not identify that it is Augustine's, left a VM no one returns the call. Was trying to set up reservations ?? First class on Marketing is to identify your business and follow up with your customers if you expect to stay in business
We did dine there food was good, very slow service, with only 2 other tables being servedHelpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Thomas S.DE, DE01Jul 23, 2023
Augustine Inn Seafood & Chop House - your restaurant has seen better days...not sure we will be coming back. Whoever runs this place now does not know anything about the business. The first 2 items ordered Scallops and Salmon - not available. And these are main stays on their menu...and no green beans. You are a seafood restaurant in the middle of the seafood season
This visit makes me sad...we have been coming since it first opened and have promoted the food and service. Today is the first day I can no longer do this. This is no reflection of the staff....this is a reflection of the owners and I hope they see this.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Sandy C.Newark, DE256796Sep 15, 2023

Got a $100 gift card for Christmas and just learned the restaurant is permanently closed? why would they sell a card knowing they were going to close.

First time going here on opening night when they reopened. I had the bacon wrapped fillet and it was very good. The cheesecake for dessert is huge and so yummy. Definitely recommend it! We also enjoyed the coconut shrimp as an appetizer. Such a nice place for a date night out.

Came here for dinner with my friend the other night. It was charcuterie board night! So we chose two cheeses (cheddar and chipotle havarti yum), prosciutto and toasted crostinis. The cheese and prosciutto was delicious.
For entrees I got steak frites and my friend got the Chilean Sea bass.
The steak was alittle overcooked but tasted good. The parmesan fries that came with it was plentiful and complemented the steak really well :) My friend loved her sea bass as well. Service was great and attentive and we loved the old house vibes of the restaurant inn. Food is alittle pricey but I think it's worth it for the quality of food. Def. Would love to come back and try other items! They have great selection of meats and seafood :) I would love to take other friends and family here for a good dinner!Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - David D.Newark, DE5321Aug 20, 2021
For all the hype I have heard about this place it was an hour and a half before I got an ok meal
The service did not reflect the prices.
Table a asnt ready so we sat at the bar ordered and paid for oysters. Only for an hour later they told us they where not available. Ordered food came out cold. Maybe they are better when not busy but they can not handle a full restaurant.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0
