Excellent food - we had three items, all were very tasty. The presentation of the food is nice. Very friendly service. It seemed to us that there were quite a few regulars. Highly recommended.

Went there with 2 friends for Wed. lunch. Parking is TERRIBLE and reservations are a must have. Restaurant was very crowded, and the service was a bit slow due to the crowd. That being said the servers were great, the food was amazing, and the parking should improve when the construction is finished. They could fill a venue twice its size!

We loved this restaurant. Food was incredible and service was amazing. Highly recommend. Just note that it’s very small inside - 8 tables.

This is a very small restaurant. Feel cramped. Food served on boards. Large menu. Fairly fast service. Not a place to linger as always someone waiting. Beautiful colored wall design. Space too too small.

We had great service & great food. The place is small and as a result, a little crowded and loud, but we were very pleased with our meal.

We sought out Amelia’s after reading the James Beard announcement, hoping that we would find some flavorable, maybe unique Mexican food. Unfortunately that was not the case.
