My favorite place for Piri piri chicken!
Nice decor, very friendly servers.
We celebrated my hubby's birthday, ambiance very authentic & cozy. Staff very friendly, we shared the octopus for appetizer which was perfectly grilled. Main meals were delicious & the peach cobbler to die for. We recommend this Portuguese restaurant!
Absolutly delicious. Had the pleasure of going for my brothers birthday & there was nothing left on anyones plate by the end. Thank you Leah & to the chef for your service tonight!
Wonderful atmosphere, exceptional cuisine. The service is devine...especially when Ms. Lea Jade is your warm & professional server...she listens to your allergies. Be sure to eat at Amalia & enjoy the culture of Portugal.
This spot definitely knows how to set the mood - beautifully decorated, cozy yet stylish, & with music that's lively but not blasting your eardrums 🎶. The multilevel design adds a nice dimension to the place, making it feel vibrant & open.
🍹 Cocktails: Absolutely lovely! Creative, well-balanced, & a real highlight of the evening. Our waitress was a star 🌟 - super friendly, knew the menu inside out, & guided us like a pro.
🍽? Food:
• The seafood options are the real heroes here 🐟🦑 - fresh, tender, & cooked with skill.
• The steak? 👌 Juicy, flavorful, & definitely the standout among the mains.
• The asparagus salad 🥗 was crisp & refreshing, while the burrata melted in the mouth - creamy perfection!
• The grilled octopus had the right texture but sadly lacked the seasoning punch it deserved.
• The roasted chicken… oh dear 😬 - dry, plain, & crying out for a sauce. Hard to love without it.
• The gnocchi was tasty but… $40 for a tiny portion? That's a chef's kiss in the wrong way 💸👎.
? Service: The staff were hustling hard & clearly giving it their all 💪, but the kitchen speed just couldn't keep up. I spent more time waiting for plates than enjoying them - & that's not the balance you want.
💰 Price vs. Experience: For the bill we paid, I expected fireworks 🎇. Instead, it was more like a sparkler - pretty in moments, but fizzled too soon.
?
👉 Overall: A restaurant with charm, strong cocktails, & great seafood - but the inconsistency & slow service mean it doesn't quite justify the price. Still, with a few chef-level tweaks 👨?🍳🔪, it could shine much brighter.
J'ai passé un tres bon late lunch ici. Food was good & Lea was cool handling a great service!
Dîner sur la terrasse par une magnifique journée de septembre. La terrasse a du potentiel… Le loup de mer entier était délicieux, cuit parfaitement, & un grand coup de coeur pour le dessert de natas & crème glacée. Le service de Lea Jade a été plus que parfait. Merci!
J'ai vraiment apprécié le restaurant particulièrement notre serveuse Léa Jade elle a répondue à toutes nos questions & a tout fait pour qu'on puisse passer une belle soirée entres amis donc, franchement au niveau du service rien à dire c'était parfait & la cuisine délicieuse surtout les calamars. À recommander !
Excellent meal. Lea was our charming waitress. Sardines, beet salad, branzino. Perfect.
I had the pleasure of visiting Amalia for lunch with my boss, & everything about the experience was excellent. We were lucky to have Lea as our server, & she was truly fantastic-attentive to our needs, warm, & thoughtful with her recommendations.
Based on her suggestions, we ordered the chicken salad & the shrimp & chorizo bowl, both of which were delicious & beautifully presented. For dessert, we tried the nata with ice cream, & it was the perfect sweet ending. I also requested the piri piri sauce on the side, & it was absolutely spot on.
From start to finish, the service, food, & presentation exceeded expectations. I would recommend Amalia with eyes closed-a wonderful dining experience I'll definitely repeat!
Really nice restaurant - well decorated, music not too loud, multilevel so gives a nice sense of dimension to the place.
