   FIrst time having lunch at Augie’s. Took the SMART Train from Petaluma Downtown (could have used Petaluma North). I got a $6 pre-paid round trip to the Santa Rosa Downtown station and found out that seniors could travel for free, at least until June 30, 2025. It’s a 13 minute walk from the but it’s a 4 minute Uber ride. We got there at 11:00 am and were given a menu and a place to sit in the sun until the place opened at 11:30. Love the fact that they have the WHOLE DINNER MENU available at lunch. And my favorite server, Ali, was our server. We ordered French Sancerre white wine by 5oz for me and 9 oz for my friend. If one more had come we would have ordered a bottle. MMMMMMMM APPETIZERS * 1/2 Dox local oysters OMG! * Escargot with black truffles. Good, but wished I ordered the standard ones. * House-cooked french bread and house created salted butter. OMG! * Coquille St Jacque OMG! Scallops like no other! * Frogs Legs. The last time OMG this time good. * Liberty Farms Duck Liver Terrine OMG!! With onion fig marmalade. It was our #1 * Crepe Suzettes for dessert. * Great coffee to match it. Service A+ with my favorite server Ali! And I think the front of the house person was one of the owners. She made sure everything was going close to perfect. A little less phrenetic than the dinner time. Probably because it was mid-week.

   I usually have great meals and good experience at any Starks Restaurants. This was not the case last night. The hostess was not very friendly. Our waiter had zero personality and was cold and robot like. He never came back to ask how our food was. Which is the next point. I ordered the special Cod dinner. I have to say it had absolutely no taste. NONE. Really not impressed with any of our 3 dinners. Sorry to say....we will not be back to Augies French.

   Service by Michael & Josh was attentive…and delighted to meet Jill, Manager, who was so gracious, welcoming & knowledgeable about the menu! Food was bountiful and fresh…only disappointment was overcooked mussels…twice & the dish was removed from our tab😉

   This is a wonderful experience on all levels, food, graciousness of staff, ambiance; I literally started responding to the waiter in French without thinking about it! So close to actually being in a bistro in France. The food is perfectly prepared and over generous in amount, I'll actually have a second dinner tonight with the leftovers. But mostly, it's about having the genuine experience of all I love about Paris in my home town of Santa Rosa. Thank you Marc and staff! You'll become my regular go-to for my weekly treat.

   Our experience started at the front door with my request to have our table set for side by side dining and immediately handled by the lovely receptionist. The room is the most unique dining spot in Santa Rosa and it's fun to watch the bar work and see all of the dishes being served. It's styled as a high end bistro and certainly comes off in that realm. Our waiter Ben was well versed in the menu and adept at offering wine selections to match with our menu selections. The menu prices are reasonable for the style and quality of the food but I have to say that the wine list is priced for the destination customer who is looking for an experience. A very pleasant and comfortable experience overall

    Food very good. Disappointed that server did not even offer to review specials. We only realized they were available when we saw them posted on our way out.
