    My family and friends had a great afternoon at Austons on 98. The food was delicious!! We had oysters on the half shell x4, smoked tuna dip, crab claws, hush puppies, and Gouda cheese grits. We all enjoyed all of the dishes. Two of us had the blood orange sour beer. My husband had Dankside and Divide and Concur Ipa beers and he liked both of them. We are going back tomorrow for more oysters.

    One of the best places I've been for great seafood. My wife and I hit down today and being from Indiana , couldn't wait to get fresh seafood. Had the raw oysters, shrimp cocktail, and crab claws. All were delicious. Also as a bonus we had great service from Katira!!!! We will eat here almost every night of our stay. Great place , great price , great service. Easy 5/5.

    So I made a review and our experience was so great we went back and it was awful! The clam chowder was watered down and bland, the fried clams were mushy and bland, the totchos were just as unexciting...our waitress was only there to take the order and deliver it. I had to go to someone else for a box and the bill. Not pleased with this visit! Even the atmosphere was blah.

    We only had their spring rolls (spicy and very hot) and oysters. They were very tasty! They have happy hour, different drink specials every day, as well as a drink menu with more options. Nice spot for quick meal, they have tvs, plenty of tables and nice long bar.

    Every time I visit Florida, I must order crab claws. They are a staple and so good! It was no different when ordering here. Their crab claws were drenched in a garlic butter with a lemon wedge. We also ordered the charbroiled oyster sampler. Every single oyster was a total hit! The oysters came with some bread to dip into the sauces and we used it for our crab claw butter. I am so happy I found this place!

    When visiting Destin/Miramar Beach area we try to get to Auston's. Our third time here this year. Tonight we got a dozen oysters, dry rub wings and fried pickles. The oysters were phenomenal as always. Had them with a squeeze of lemon, saltine crackers, cocktail sauce, horseradish and the Auston's Habanero Garlic Hot Sauce. Everything was great. For beer, I had Ghost in the Machine by Parish Brewery in Louisiana. One of the top double IPA's out there. Live music by Wes Herndon was definitely a plus. Service was quick at first but got a little slow when they started getting busy.

    Good food and great servers. Bartenders are cool and it's a great place for football. Crab claws and wings were perfect.

    When is happy hour?

    3pm to 6pm

    Can I get broiled oysters with NO seasoning or butter?

    I'm fairly sure you can. My husband is gluten free and they were very kind about helping us. Just check with them first to be certain.

    Can I get the recipe for those delicious crackers you served with the tuna dip?

    No maam

    Do they sell oyster shots?

    Yes

Our server was professional and clearly doing everything she could, but she was assigned several large tables and was completely overwhelmed. It was obvious she needed help, yet no one stepped in to support her. As a result, we waited at least an hour and a half for our dinners. To make matters worse, our bill included a charge that shouldn't have been there. When we politely spoke with management about our experience, we weren't looking to get anyone in trouble--we simply wanted them to understand what had happened and make it right. Instead of addressing the excessive wait or the billing error in a meaningful way, management instructed our server to remove her gratuity from the bill rather than taking responsibility themselves. That response said everything. The problems we experienced were clearly management issues, not our server's. She worked hard under impossible circumstances and deserved support, not to have her tip used as the solution. We made things right for our server, and stressed to her that this was not her fault. The kitchen produces great food, and the restaurant has a wonderful atmosphere. Unfortunately, poor management overshadowed what could have been a great dining experience. I hope they invest more in supporting their staff and taking ownership when things go wrong.

Don't matter which city we are in it never fails. Things to add before the service. Party of 5, automatic gratuity. 3 percent add for paying with card. Remember we had to tip 18 percent for this service so why would the server give two shi about us. They were already getting the tip. And we only had two adults and three kids (2 at 14). Served nachos, never given any silverware. Went to front grabbed it myself. Fast forward, not to much on the drink refill or clearing an appetizer meal off the table because the tables are average size. Had to ask for those refills, and just water. Time to pay. No clue where the server was then, seen the server standing up front near the entrance. Then Watched other tables get drink refills, and actually pay and began to leave. Wife had to go to the counter to get the bill. Then I went to the counter to pay the bill. Christ our luck sucks. Let's get to the food. Philly steak, boneless wings, kid got a monster burger, and sliders. Guess what, the food is as absolutely great! Go try the food.. other tables were getting. The service you'd expect since you are forced an automatic 18 percent.
