Amelie - New York

Bar area was packed and restaurant seemed full with a line out the door when we arrived. However, the host came through the line asking if someone had reservations and if we were confirmed we were sitting on time. The service was fast, but didn't feel fast. And although seats are close together, you might have a conversation without screaming

I love everything about Amelie! The wine and food are amazing, the happy hour is one of the best in the city, and the staff is super friendly.

We went for the foie grass and loved everything. Can't beat the value!

They sent a text at 10 and said they were open until 12:00, so we couldn't go. Next trip!!!

I am sooooo in love with this place!! I rarely write reviews on any of my dining experiences, but but everything we ordered at Amelie was amazing and the service was exceptional. The guys that work here are all so friendly and go above and beyond to make your dining experience the very best. We had both types of oysters offered as part of the daily special, escargot, mussels, cheese/charcuterie plate and the creme brulee for dinner and every dish was spectacular. They continuously refill a bag of delicious baguette slices and the cocktail that I ordered called the Lady Grey was the very favorite (boyfriend also loved his classic manhattans). During our dinner, two different servers were finishing up their shifts and both stopped by our table to thank us and say farewell before heading out the door. You could tell this was a genuine act of friendliness on both their parts and not part of any routine that they were trained to do. This place is such a gem, I can't wait to get back here soon for a night out with my girls!
