What's the Orthodox view of St. Augustine? I've heard everything from "they venerate him like the Catholics do" to "they view him as a Origen/Tertullian tier heretic."

He's a saint. Only fringe extremists view him as otherwise.

I really like origen and tertullian, minus a couple heresies they had

depends on who you ask and how familiar they are with Bishop Ausustine's theology
from an orthodox stand point he is directly and indirectly responsible for catholic heresies

Confessions and City of God are the two big ones. The most controversial of his writings is On Grace and Free Will, which some say is what led to Calvinism.
