About this restaurant

  • Neighborhood gem
  • Good for special occasions
  • Great for creative cocktails
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.

    I got the rainbow trout and is was delicious. We also shared a dessert that was some sort of peanut butter cream puff and it was so yummy and was plenty for two people. Our waiter Rob was also amazing

    Always good food and service. The special was Halibut . It was baked too long and the blueberry topping was not a good choice of toppings for me. Overall, everything else was perfect. One of my favorite restaurants in Fernandina.

    Arrived early for the reservation to see if we could be seated. Hostess had no problem doing so. Our waitress, Jessica, was very helpful in finding awesome gluten free options and recommending cocktails. The salmon and steak were both cooked to order perfectly. After dinner, Jessica recommended a gluten free chocolate cake of sorts and it was also incredible. We were seated in a quieter section of the restaurant, which was perfect for our honeymoon date. You could still hear the rest of the restaurant, but it was not really a bother. Excellent option if you’re staying somewhere on Amelia Island.
