Our food was outstanding and the service was very professional. We have been going to Burlingame for several years and I think the food, while always good, continues to improve. The halibut fish of the day was one of the best fish dishes I've had in recent memory. The chef was able to adjust preparation on another dish to eliminate dairy for my lactose intolerant friend. Amelia Island is fortunate to have such a fine dining restaurant. The prices reflect the quality, so expect to pay top dollar if you are looking for a top dining experience.

This once go to restaurant is now on our no go list. We were there to celebrate our birthdays. Our server was pleasant to start but turned so rude, it was shocking. At the end of the evening the waitress stomped over to our table, rudely tossed the check on our table, said happy birthday rudely and stomped away. No offer of desert, no cupcake. Exceptionally rude.

Overall good. Nice setting, well decorated, clean, quiet. Waiter was very knowledgeable and provided good recommendations. That said, we had an earlier seating so I think we caught him when he was covering multiple sections — was harder to catch him later after entrees arrived. Octopus appetizer was the highlight for us, well seasoned and very tender. Strip steak was also very well seasoned. It was a perfect medium rare as requested but would’ve loved more of a crust. Scallops were fine, not bad but not a standout. Crème brulee was also fine, again not a standout. For drinks, cocktails were good and French press was excellent.

As always and every time, the food and drink choices are excellent. We’ve dined here many times. Most recently, October 2023, the only issue is pricing. They’ve gone over the moon. I mean, cost is gratefully not an issue for us, but, there are items which can be gotten equally well prepared for much much less.

Our anniversary dinner was wonderful except for the table across the room who insisted on using very very loud voices and laughing and calling out - it was very distracting. Other than that we loved our meal. Jennifer(?) our wait staff was exceptional.

Wow! We'd heard that Burlingame had changed hands and that's always a concern. But no need to worry...the new owners are doing an amazing job. My husband and I commented after that there was not a moment where it wasn't perfect...well-rounded menu, fabulous presentation, and absolutely delicious food. And the service from Tanner was amazing. Kudos to all! We'll be back!!!

We have always enjoyed dining at Burlingame and last evening was no exception. The food is always well prepared and presented. The standout on this occasion was our server. Tanner made helpful suggestions and knew the menu well. His wine recommendations were also spot on. While we will always return to Burlingame for their delicious fare, we will also keep in mind the fantastic service we received as an added bonus to the evening. Well done!
