The staff had barely arrived, still unpacking. ...and yet, they were so gracious to our party being there too early. We were welcomed in by the bartender and immediately made to feel at home by the ladies (bartender + waitress) who began chatting with us like we were locals. The drinks were phenomenal (aperol spritz was very refreshing). My favorite thing we ordered that day was the eggplant flatbread (sounded kinda funky... but is actually mouth-wateringly delicious). It was a great experience. We will absolutely be back the next time we're in town. Thank you for being so welcoming to the out-of-towners standing awkwardly in the doorway of your not-open-yet restaurant.

Nice atmosphere inside and out. Rainy outside so we were indoors. Excellent, very friendly service…read more Small but decent beer selection. For my wife's Chicken Parmesan they were willing to change the pasta to grits - and that was very nice of them. Grits are similar to polenta- which is how she makes hers. She liked her dish. I had the three fish combo - and it was not very good. I believe a small piece of flounder (which was overcooked), three or four shrimp (which were overcooked as well), and a crab cake - which was decent but kind of mushy, but the moisture helped me to eat the other overcooked fish so ended up being a positive. Had key lime pie for dessert- which was okay but not great in my opinion. We did not complain or ask them to redo the fish. Service and ambiance, plus them working with my wife on her dish pushed them to a 4-star. My dish by itself was probably 3 star at best but other elements of the experience were very nice. We would go back again but would be hesitant to order items like fish that are easy to overcook.

The restaurant was completely empty for lunch. The staff there, while very attentive and friendly to us, clearly had nothing else to do and just stood around the bar talking VERY loudly about sports or whatnot. Our waitress was very nice, we both ordered Fish and Chips made with different meat and it was.... okay. The breading was nothing special, though with the fish I think it was fine. The fries were pretty decent. I could see O.C Whites being a fantastic spot if it tightened up its menu a bit and maybe lowered prices a bit. 'Til next time!

We arrived early and were seated right away. The friendly greeter led us to a lovely table. Sandra, our wonderful server, offered wine samples, which made choosing a drink a breeze. While we waited, Summer, the manager, welcomed us and even offered me a free birthday dessert! We started with a Charcuterie featuring meat, nuts, and dried fruit. Then, I had the Grouper Choppino, with its flavorful broth and perfectly cooked fish. Nicely paired with the white Albariño, Martin. My husband picked the tender Handcut Filet with Parsnip Pureé, perfectly paired with the Daou Cabernet Sauvignon. For dessert, we shared a complimentary chocolate treat with a crunchy crust and creamy topping. We're so happy we picked 17 Kings to celebrate, and we're already planning to come back!

The location is great for people-watching, walking, or shopping before or after eating. The food was delicious, with great presentation and unique garnishes.

I'm very much looking forward to coming back for entrées at a later time.

The drink wasn't well balanced. The fried shrimp basket was amazing. My sister ordered a create your own boil and that was also great and very flavorful. They should explain on the menu that you have to choose two options for the create your own boil. The restaurant was very relaxed and is family friendly. Parking is a bit confusing. There is parking directly in front of the restaurant but it was full when we arrived. There is also additional parking nearby but it was intertwined with what seemed to be a car sales or rental place. We took a chance and parked there anyway and the car was fine when we returned.

I…read morestarted with a Caprese salad that was made with Burrata cheese instead of mozzarella which I really liked and the tomatoes were excellent but no basil and no balsamic vinegar, just olive oil. My entree was shrimp scampi - the sauce was like soup, the fettuccine noodles were stuck together and the shrimp had the tails on (a pet peeve of mine - why do you need to leave the tails on so the customer has to touch the food to get them off)? The worst was my wife's chicken parmigiana, it was served in a sweet brown cream sauce that I'm still trying to get the taste out of my mouth. The chicken was just okay but it had skin and bones on it. She could only eat about 10% of it and of course we didn't take it home. On the other hand our server, Desiree was excellent always on the ball! The atmosphere of the place is romantic and well appointed. We will not be back!

I had mentioned two guests had a birthday in my reservation and they put two birthday notecards on the table, this was a lovely touch. The ambiance outside was perfect, wasn't loud at all and lighting was moody. I had a Ruby Fizz Mocktail and it was one of the best mocktails I have ever had. The others drinks were strong and good! The food was incredible. I highly recommend the scallop toast (we ordered it a second time because it was so good!) and bread service for starter. The table really liked the empanadas, I was not a huge fan (but, I am from Miami so my empanada taste buds are different LOL). The Rockefeller Snapper was incredible. Huge piece of yellowtail and just an overall unique dish. The Scallop Cavatelli had to have been one of the best seafood dishes I have ever had. It was rich and decadent. I am not sure if they hand roll the pasta in house, but the pasta tasted so fresh. The table had some espresso martinis to end the night and I had a decaf French press coffee (I think he said French press). It was all delicious. Highly highly recommend.

There was no one at hostess stand because system was down and they were having troubles which I felt bad for the hostess who seemed stressed on obviously a busy night. They were out of both of the entrees we wanted, which was unfortunate but I ended up getting the catch beurre blanc and it was delicious. I ordered a sangria but our drinks took a very long time to come out, after our appetizer (crab, an heirloom tomato bruschetta which was yummy and more filling than regular bruschetta!) Overall, the food was really good and waitress was nice, but water was never refilled and everything took a really long time to come out. Would love to try it again on a regular night and hopefully they have the entrees we wanted to try:)

The carpaccio was incredible, and you could truly taste the freshness and quality in every dish. The pastas and gnocchi were clearly handmade and perfectly prepared.

Angelina was warm, personable, knowledgeable, attentive, and incredibly efficient throughout the evening. We enjoyed our experience so much that we actually canceled our reservation at another restaurant the following night just so we could return to Terra & Acqua a second time.

We dropped in late afternoon and grabbed a few seats at the indoor bar. The bar staff here works the entire bar I'm sure we were greeted by all of them during our visit and each provided exceptional service. The drinks here are very creative and all come with very generous pours, if you like rum this is a place you'll fall in love with after your first sip - we decided to just go down the drink menu and try as many as we could responsibly and immediately knew this would be a favorite when in the area. I'd be hard pressed to pick a favorite drink and it would be just as tough to pick a favorite off their small bite menu. We decided to try a few of the specials, it's a relatively simple menu but everything is filled with flavors that are incredible - the char-grilled oysters are plumb, fresh and unique in every way, the fried black grouper bites were crispy served with a delicious remoulade and a spicy jalapeño chimichurri that will light up your tastebuds, we also tried the jerk chicken thighs skewers and amazing crab empanadas filled with a curry concoction like no others. The portions are large enough to share and really balance out the cocktails, this was a really nice experience and one I plan to repeat in the near future, with all the options in St. Augustine this one is at the very top of the list in my opinion and with parking at a premium in the area they have plenty, definitely worth a try...
