About this restaurant

  • Neighborhood gem
  • Good for special occasions

The Louisiana French Creole use the term “lagniappe” to describe something that’s “a little something extra,” and that's exactly what chef owner Brian Grimley knows it takes to transform a dish from mere food into an experience you never forget. Inspired by the culture and flavors of New Orleans, Charleston and Savannah, Chef Grimley's Lagniappe- Amelia Island combines the traditions of the French Creole with unique twists on Southern culinary staples using only the freshest local ingredients. And should you wish to elevate your experience by imbibing one of the many cocktails on the menu, you'll choose from a range of both classic and new wave cocktails inspired by the eclectic spirit of the South.

    We had a great experience with Drew! His recommendations for good and drink were spot on. We weren’t happy with our table for two which was in a row of other 2 seaters that weren’t private and right on top of each other. All of us could hear our conversations which wasn’t ideal.

    Heritage pork chops outstanding. Staff most accommodating. We were looking forward to trout and unfortunately had run out, so we had red drum which we thoroughly enjoyed. Side oysters excellent. We appreciate the New Orleans inspired cuisine. Dining room was full 7pm on a Wednesday which indicates how popular restaurant is. We will definitely return.

    We always enjoy this neighborhood favorite of ours. The food and service is always consistent and great. The only reason we did not give it five stars is because the noise level is so high and one practically has to shout to be heard across the table. I try to request a booth but they are not always open. I wish the tables in the front room were a bit smaller because it really is a strain to be heard.

    Another fine meal at this neighborhood gem. Great food, service, ambiance. Those blue cheese mussels are our of this world. The soups of the day are always delicious and ample.

    The gumbo had minimal amount of sausage. 90 percent okra. The pork barley soup was very good. The pastrami sandwich was uneatable. The pastrami was cut thick. It was very fatty and tough. Very bad meal.
