    The ambiance was romantic and beautiful, a perfect place for a date. The food was also delicious though the menu is a little small and it seems a bit too expensive for what they give you. Overall, a great place but definitely make a reservation beforehand!

    Ok food and staff seem not so happy but pleasant. The meatloaf was very tasty as well as the beef salad. Hubby said his roast chicken was good and moist. Food wasn’t all that memorable except for the lamb meatloaf. There’s a large outside patio to dine but gets cold at night and not enough heaters unless its in the middle of summer.

    Here for brunch on a Sunday in February. We had a reservation which got us seated promptly and was outside in the courtyard. Inside seating is very limited. After chasing down hostess who attempted to avoid me I asked if we cold move to inside which clearly had a 4 top table since the it was very windy outside. I was told very rudely that was the owners table and no one could sit there. What owner would seat less customers and get less revenue whether they were there or not? Food and table service were OK. Restrooms limited to 1 person up stairs 1 down with constant line. I wouldn't go back.

    The food was amazing, the garden ambiance was magical. Highly recommend everything we had including the shrimp and grits, bananas foster waffles and the lamb sloppy joes. The only problem was that the two bathroom stalls can fill up quickly and for one you are lined up on a busy staircase up to the kitchen and the other you are in the middle of the servers pathway/register area.

    Cute courtyard seating. Not a lot of gluten free options. The food was fine for brunch. Enjoyed the aperol spritzs. My grits were kind of cold. No almond or soy milk for lattes.

    I’ve come here for special occasions for the past 2 years and they never seem to disappoint, from the decor and atmosphere to the food and drinks. Café Amelie will also be a stop when i visit New Orleans!
