you have got to be kidding. you took the reservation, you sent two reminders and when we got there it had been PERMANENTLY Closed since December of 2018. We love open table, but this time you really blew it. On top of it being closed, we had no other place that would take us without reservations, so we ended up driving out of St. Augustine to a low tier restaurant that would take walk-ins. Shame.

The Osso Buco excellent. My wife had snapper with a Piccata sauce and started with escargot both of which were both good. The wine by the glass is very good.
