   Had a ravioli which was great. My daughter’s bolognese was just ok.

   Service at Amelia’s is always warm, gracious, and attentive. The food is delicious (the bolognese is my go to) and our family comes here as our celebratory occasion restaurant.

   Super cute date night restaurant!!! The restaurant itself is very small but super charming and because of this I feel like the service was phenomenal, instead of having a designated waiter, the waitstaff seemed to all work together. We recently moved nearby so wanted to try something new close by for dinner and landed on this place. We met an another couple sitting next to us who also lived nearby and we chatted most of the night. They ended up buying us a round of limoncello shots which was so nice so we decided to return the favor. Turned grabbing dinner into a fun date night!! We will be back!

   Had a fabulous dinner before a movie. Arrived early (before they opened) and were seated right away. I was able to order something not on the menu (yummy shrimp Fra Diavlo). Waiter was busy, but we were not ignored. Even fit in a quick dessert. Two thumbs up!

   Both pasta dishes were overcooked and the gnocchi had quite a lot of sugar on them. The tiramisu was ok.

   Decent Italian food by U.S. standards, but the service leaves much to be desired. The hall staff is often overwhelmed, unfriendly, and at times even hostile toward customers. The management also has its shortcomings. The music is frequently too loud, creating an unpleasant dining atmosphere, and the table arrangement is overly cramped, making the space feel uncomfortably tight. On busy days, they even place a table right at the entrance, which is both impractical and uncomfortable for guests. Additionally, the reservation system is poorly managed. Even after confirming a reservation change over the phone, it was not updated in the system, and instead of taking responsibility, the staff blamed the customers for the mistake. While the restaurant has a thoughtfully designed interior and the food is decent, the overall experience is disappointing. Given the service and management issues, it's simply not worth returning.

    I came here about a year ago with my now girlfriend for a first date. I wanted to recreate that first date for Valentine’s Day and Amelia’s Trattoria was just as perfect as that day! Food was delicious, staff were fast and attentive, and answered all of our questions. Thank you for everything!
