We had a wonderful dining experience tonight at Augustine’s 1812 House in Spanish Springs. Reservations were for 4 at 5pm. We arrived and were seated immediately at a table designated as “reserved”. Debbie, our server, attended to our every need. The bottled wine list offered a varied price range.
We ordered two appetizers, which the portions were generous. Fresh bread was also brought to the table.

Entrees include steak, veal, chicken, fish, pasta and a nightly “Chef’s selection” as well as other options.
The entrees were outstanding. Our group ordered the salmon, steak and the Chef’s selection of shrimp florentine ravioli (superb). The risotto that accompanied the salmon and steak was also incredible.
Pizzelles were brought to the table as we were awaiting our check.

They are currently offering a gift card special: purchase a $50 gift card and receive a bottle of wine free (manager’s choice) to go. Both couples purchased the gift card offer. We can’t wait to return and plan to request Debbie as our server!

Unless I am missing something I have not found any menu online. Could care less about price, but prior knowledge of entrees is nice. Being this is only your 4th post since 2013, a restaurant review is interesting

We ate at the new Augustine's 1812 House the other night and were very happy with the choices, food quality and service. I am sure they will be a success as they have been for many years at the Lighthouse Point Restaurant. "Try it, you'll like it."

I envy you, Charlie. I have some food issues and I never go to a restaurant without seeing the menu ahead of time.

I can't find a web site for the restaurant (I assume because it is new). If anyone comes across one can you let us know please. Would love to see the menu.

Thanks.

Is there music playing? What kind? Is it loud? Thanks.

We ate at Augustines on December 18. Good food and service. I had the shrimp/cheese tortellini special with vegetables. I liked the Italian sauce. Hubby had haddock parmesan which he liked. A vocalist singing Italian music was in the bar area. Not loud - could not hear it in the front area.

I sure wouldn’t be too concerned, but I enjoy reading the good experiences people have at the local businesses. Usually when many chime in we get a good idea whether to try a business out. It seems folks are a little on edge with all that’s been going on the last year. People sure do pounce on very quickly these days about almost nothing. We all make mistakes! I enjoy the information given on totv overall but at times some seem to get rattled a bit

I'd like to believe the OP is not a "shill" for this new restaurant. I'd also like to see about 10 more reviews and a menu. The owners also run the Lighthouse at Lake Sumter which has had very mixed reviews over the last 2 years. So forgive me if I remain skeptical.

Very strange that a restaurant doesn't have a website, even if it is new.

Although we won’t risk dinning out until vaccinated, I would like to try the restaurant via takeout. It has to be costing them valuable business not having a website. Can’t order takeout if you don’t have the menu.

Where in the center is this, what was in the space before.

Went there last night for dinner and had their pizza. Well it left a lot to be desired. I ordered the regular (not thin) crust and it turned out very dense. Pizza crust is usually airy and crisp this crust was just dense and not very tasty.
