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.

My wife and I start with the Special Spritz which was an Aperol Spritz with Gran Marnier that was excellent. For brunch I had the steak and eggs. I ordered my steak médium-well but I thought it was well done but it was still very good. (I’ve come to realize that’s subjective) The scrambled eggs were fine and the potatoes were very good. My friend had the same order except the steak medium-rare and that was to his liking. My wife had the mushroom and goat cheese omelette and said it was very good. The service was very good. Juan, the owner, greeted us and chatted with us for a bit and gave us some history of the Townhouse Amanda’s is located in. Christopher, our server, was personable and professional. Overall highly recommended!

Where do i start ?????? Bar was not stocked, appetizer was prepared in a style i have never seen in 40 years of dinning out . Red sauce looked like it came out of a can . Understandable why a SUPPOSED highly rated restaurant was empty . Scary part staff from top to bottom thought everything was fine . IN DENIAL

Food was absolutely delicious, everything tastes super fresh and definitely homemade. Cocktails were well balanced and brought without delay. Cozy atmosphere and attentive service. It was our first time dining at Amanda’s and it seems they rotate specials often and we look forward to returning and trying other dishes. This a a great date and/or family dinner spot. The live music was a great touch, a throwback to restaurants of the past but still felt contemporary.

So it was a wonderful experience ambiance wise! Music was amazing, noise level also good, food was nice. So here goes the negative, food was not hot, maybe because the server ordered it and it was sitting there for a bit. Same server charged me for the wrong wine and didn’t even apologize for getting the wrong wine price. It was a forty dollar difference! When we told her she didn’t acknowledge that she was wrong just said she would talk to her manager and then came back and said it was fixed but never really acknowledged that she just charged us the wrong price for the wine we ordered! I would definitely go back , but would pray we get a different server! Obviously it’s a nice place that’s been around for ever so they’re doing something right but it’s a shame that the server was not really living up to the place!

We had late brunch to celebrate my son’s birthday and the food and service were great. We had a couple of smoked salmon eggs Benedict, a burger, a special salad, a mushroom and goat cheese omelette and a Caesar salad with chicken. Everyone really enjoyed the food. They kept our water glasses full, something we all appreciated, and we weren’t rushed at all despite the fact that the kitchen closes at 3 and our start time ordering was after 2:15. The only things that were less than perfect, I’d say, were they neglected to bring the birthday dessert they told me they bring for my son (though it didn’t turn out to be a problem because he was very full, but still..) and although the pianist was very good, I wish we hadn’t been seated right next to him so we could hear each other converse better. But in Hoboken many restaurants and so much noisier, so I’m not really complaining, just commenting.

Loved the ambiance and the music added a very lovely touch. Unfortunately, the food did not seem to fit the ambiance. Our food was very bland and did not have much flavor. Unfortunately, I can't recommend this restaurant.
