For the past 28 years, Amanda's mission has always been about replenishing the soul through delicious contemporary cuisine and providing excellent service - all at a reasonable price. Guests enter our elegantly restored brownstones and are warmly welcomed by an accommodating staff. Although geographically close to Manhattan and certainly as culinary sophisticated, we're not slow to smile and truly aim to please each guest. Our popularity stems from the talents of our chef, our dedication to warm, gracious service and the comfortable elegance of our dining rooms. Amanda's is the natural choice for so many occasions: the romantic couple on a "date to impress," a family brunch on Sunday or the place to enjoy pre-theater Early Dinner at a price that is really too good to believe. Sophisticated wine lovers enjoy our monthly five-course wine dinners.

    We’ve always enjoyed dining at Amanda’s, but unfortunately, our recent experience fell short of expectations. We had reserved two bar seats for dinner, yet upon arrival, the staff seated two other guests at the bar without a reservation. Rather than acknowledging the mistake and offering a suitable resolution, we were given the option of a two-top near the drafty entrance. Disappointed with the handling of the situation, we ended up cutting our date night short and leaving in less than an hour. While Amanda’s is a great restaurant, this was not a strong showing of service. We hope for a better experience next time.

    We had a party of 8 in the private side room in the back. It was a great setting for a group - we could all hear each other and didn't feel that we were disrupting other tables. The food was also very good and the service was pleasant and smooth. Will come back!

    We always enjoy going to Amanda's for a special occasion. The period architecture and deco provide an upscale ambience. They often have a live music playing, too. The food is top notch! It never disappoints us. We highly recommend it for a family brunch, date night, and a party.

    Lovely, quiet spot with good food and service. I frequently have difficulty with the noise level in restaurants, but was able to enjoy a good meal with great conversation.

    I took my girlfriend here for a birthday celebration, it was so beautiful on the inside. The food was delicious, my only complaint is our table was not leveled so it wobbled the whole time making it difficult to just sit and enjoy the meal.
