My partner and I visited Augusta’s on Saturday night for the first time for dinner. Service was exceptional – polite and attentive staff, wine topped up regularly throughout the night. We are both lactose intolerant and Cedric was able to advise on dishes which would be suitable and changes they can make to dishes to cater for us which was amazing and appeared no hassle! Food was delicious, great quality and a good portion size. Lovely atmosphere and clean. We were given the option of where to sit and chose the conservatory which was lovely. Fair price for the quality of food and drink. Great location in Taunton town – tucked away but a hidden gem! We will be back!

Really great tasting food. The menu is a good size, not too much choice, just several dishes made very well. I’m super impressed with the cooking, it was really lovely. The Staff are all smart and professional. They’ve clearly been properly trained and complimented the quality of the kitchen beautifully. Our first time coming to the restaurant and I’m really looking forward to coming back. This place looked like a popular hit, so I’d definitely recommend booking in advance. Thank you for a great evening!

We went to visit Taunton for the day and Augustus was recommended to us as the best restaurant in town. It definitely lived up to the hype.
Wow – I had the mussels and I’ve never had such plump fresh mussels in my life. Even better than when you get them from the coast. Unbelievable. With the Asian inspired brother as well, it was amazing! The monkfish was beautiful. We also had the steamed plum pudding which was delicious.
Service was amazing, so attentive and friendly. Thank you for our lovely meal!

The whole experience was grand. Extremely polite staff, amazing atmosphere. Food was out of this world and they use locally sourced ingredients for all their food. Highly recommend to anyone who wants to experience fine dining at a very reasonable cost.

Augustus is tucked away in a little side street but well worth tracking down. The menu is of classic French style with little modern twists. My wife and l ate here they had no problem dealing with my wife coeliac disease GF. We were looked after by Cedric, Henry and Erin all very knowledgeable and professional nothing to much trouble. We had Asparagus with a crispy soft egg followed by crown of pigeon my wife had faggots. All were beautifully prepared and cooked to perfection, all in all if you’re in Taunton do hunt it out you won’t regret it.

We celebrated our wedding anniversary here, following a recommendation from friends. We were delighted that it lived up to its fine reputation! Service, food/drinks offerings and ambience were all top notch, but with a laid-back bistro style of operation. We both chose the same dishes (been married too long!) – scallops followed by monkfish. I indulged in a beautiful custard tart with rhubarb, but purely for research purposes of course! I only have one very tiny observation, and that is I felt it was a shame they use paper napkins – the same ones as offered in the WC to dry one’s hands! Linen would have completed a perfect picture. That said, we both loved it and it will be our place of choice for future celebrations .

Fantastic service, very professional staff who made us feel very welcome.
The food was exceptional particularly for the cost, special mention to the cheeseboard (all English cheeses).
Would definitely recommend this restaurant.

We had a lovely time. Atmosphere was great and the staff were very attentive.
We had the sample fixed 3 course menu which was a great portion of food. All courses were AMAZING and were great value for money. We’d definitely go back.
