   The service was great. She made sure to check in with us at a good rate. When it came to the food I thought there could be a tad bit more seasoning but the portions of everything was HUGE. Great place to go for a special occasion.

   All the sauces were delicious and tasted like old family recipes even the bread. Lots of variety on the menu.

   Dylan our server was incredibly nice and efficient. We liked the non-rushed style. The only complaint is the ceiling fans made it just a little cold outside, but I'm certain they would have turned them off if we had asked.

   The food is just ok, they are so busy and not enough staff, plus it is very loud. Definitely needs to be updated also.

   OK restaurant. Nice overall atmosphere. Mixed drink was not made properly. Food was so salty, we almost had to send it back. Unlikely to return. Server was nice and friendly.

    The food was somewhat decent, but not good enough for the prices. I lived in Italy for 7 years and this was definitely not genuine Italian cooking. Food wasn’t bad, but not worth the price.

    Such a wonderful atmosphere and AMAZING food. The entrees come with salad, bread, and a side of penne so it’s a great value for all that delicious food. I went here on Valentine’s day and they made it so romantic and special and even fulfilled a silly request I had made. The staff was great and I will definitely be coming here again.

    Underwhelmed. Heard good things about this restaurant from other UF parents. No entrance. Walked right in upon guests eating. Felt like I was disturbing them. Food was so so. I ordered the salmon special and it was very oily. My husband’s Alfredo although very creamy was over salted and could not be finished. My daughter’s linguine and clams was okay. Clams were good but pasta was not incorporated into the flavor of the dish. Did not care for having butter in wrappers. Entrees brought to table before first course dishes were cleared. Waiter waited for me to move my dirty dishes out of the way. Really dislike that! Then reached over the entire table to serve my husband’s dish. Door to bathrooms very dirty. I could go on. Let’s just say it was not what I expected.

    I came here with my boyfriend to celebrate our anniversary, and the service and food was wonderful. I had the stuffed mushrooms and salmon andaluccia and it was delicious. The ambience and noise level made us feel pretty cozy as well. All the staff was very welcoming and willing to help. I would definitely eat here again!

    I was very unhappy with the food. Very bland and poorly seasoned. Over priced for the quality of the meal. Seriver was very kind and attentive, however when I made the reservation I checked for a birthday and was never asked. Bar was out of many drinks and selection was minimal.

    Our server, Lupine was the highlight of the experience. Service like that is few and far between. We were celebrating our 26th anniversary as a male couple and we felt incredibly welcome and at ease. (Not always the case) The food was marvelous. At first we both ordered the steak and was disappointed that only one was left but luckily we chose the lobster ravioli which gave us the opportunity the share both. So glad for that. Thank you for a lovely evening. We will be back.

    We had a very pleasant dinner at Amelia's. +Friendly service, tasty dishes, great Caesar salad and dessert -Sauce on the chicken was a bit salty, house wines could improve, would have been nice to be offered additional bread

    We have been going to Amelias for 15 years. It is our favorite special occasion (sometimes any day of the week is a special occasion) restaurant and the food and service have always been wonderful. We miss chef Andy but are glad that he lives on as very little has changed.

    Amelia's is in desperate need of some ambiance! The bright lights and vintage decorations need some work. Not terribly inviting. Food was decent, service was slow. Probably wouldn't go back.

    It took 1hr and 40 min to get our food for two people. And we had a reservation… The food was good enough but by that point we were just ready to leave and felt that it was not worth it. Also, sitting right by the door when there were several other open tables was not great. Would not go back

    This is a great place for a special date night, which is what my wife and I were there for! The wait staff is very friendly and the food and drink choices are excellent! It is very cozy for the indoor seating, which means the toom fills with noise quickly. However, it is not a distraction from the great dining experience!

    Food as usual was spectacular. I had the chicken piccata and it was moist tender and delightful. This is the first time in years I have eaten inside and found it very crowded, tables are way too close to each other.

    Restaurant had no veal for veal dishes. so we had pasta bolognese which was excellent. Restaurant had no Cab savig by the glasss! instead had the house pinot noir and merlot. Brand was Folonari which i didn't care for but maybe just me. Parking close by is a pain. You have to download an app and log on to pay. Restaurant will reimburse for parking.
