Our staff will be there when you need them but tonight is about your party not about us. If we do our job right you won’t even notice us.

Amelia Island
About the restaurant
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.

My wife isn't much of a beef eater but was excited about the pasta options. The pasta was cold. She told our server who said that there was an issue with the sterno, but said she'd bring some fresh pasta to my wife when the made the next pan. It never came so she ate some prime rib. I enjoyed the prime rib very much but i love beef. She left disappointed.
