Delicious food and super amazing, friendly service. Great vibes inside or out but we loved taking advantage of their beautiful outside space! We loved the cocktails including the espresso martini and exploring this menu — gotta get their chicken sandwich.

Everything was perfect. The food was beautifully presented, interesting, and delicious. I started with a mock cocktail. I wish mock cocktails tasted so good: refreshing and not sweet. A grownup drink, without the alcohol. My husband and I also shared a wine flight which was...Read More

Having brunch at Amelia's was a very pleasant experience - the outdoor structure is very beautifully done. The food was great and the staff was very hospitable. The Benedict was excellent (crunchy on the outside, creamy on the inside), the pancakes were sumptuous, the spinach and...Read More

Bottom line: absolute hidden gem. Food was outstanding, service on point, and ambiance romantic/private. Will definitely return. Gluten line: very accommodating, and the gluten free crostinis were MONEY (that means really good). Bottom line: came with a group of 5. They have a small but well picked...Read More

Had lunch here during the week. Food was delicious. We got the penne pasta with sausage and creole shrimp. They served bread with chickpeas and olive oil which we had to crush and mix ourselves. Fun.

Great experience. Good was above expectations! Fun way to serve the complimentary hummus in a 'mortar and pestle' type serving dish. The sort rib lollipops were incredible. Meat was so tender and flavorful! The mango sauced chicken tenders...Read More

DAH-LISH-US. Amelia’s brunch is phenomenal. I had an amazing lobster hash with extra crisp potatoes on the side. The lobster hash came with a poached egg on bread that elevated an already amazing meal. Everyone in my party loved their food too, and the bill didn’t...Read More

Loved everything here. We were for a weekday brunch. The server made us an alcohol-free strawberries -mango drink and it was heavenly. The complimentary DIYish hummus was a unique touch. Everything we ordered was flavorful. Looking forward to our next time.
