Nice restaurant vibe. The cocktails were nice, good service. The octopus & scallops carpaccio were the stars, very nicely presented & the flavor was outstanding. Moules were well prepared & very seasoned, steak with the amount of butter was delicious. Good amount per serving
Nous avons eu la chance de souper à la table du chef. Nous sommes une familles de 5 & avons vécus une expérience mémorable. Xavier (l'un des propriétaires) a été très généreux avec nous & nous a accueillis comme des membres de sa famille. Tous les plats étaient succulents, le service était impeccable, les employés étaient tous très joviales. L'atmosphère était géniale, nous allons y retourner. De plus, Xavier & son associés opèrent un autre restaurant Sel Noir Steakhouse. Je conseille ce restaurant à tout le monde qui veut avoir une belle expérience culinaire dans une belle ambiance.
Very disappointing evening. The Branzino was supposed to be deboned at the table. The poor waiter had no idea what he was doing & massacred the fish. It was sad to watch. We had to pick the bones out of the mashed up fish. It was served with a tasty butternut squash puree which unfortunately was cold as was the asparagus. Also ordered at our table were the mussels which my husband enjoyed, another friend had the chicken & the comment was that it was dry & another friend had the lamb chops which he enjoyed.
All in all not an enjoyable evening consensus is we won't be coming back
It was an excellent evening, went for an'end of year dinner' with my office staff. The vibes & ambiance were excellent, easy to have conversations. Staff were friendly & accommodating, provided suggestions as well. All, the appetizers made to perfection shared amongst 4 people. & as a main the'Paella' gives you some of everything & easy to share amongst 2. Had to end the night with their dessert of the night.
Great place for a luncheon with your team. The food was delicious. The service was attentive. The restaurant itself has a nice cozy feel with booths & we had a lovely time. Highly recommend!
Had an amazing night! Delicious food, amazing staff, & the place has a great ambiance. Would recommend for a night out. Shoutout to Lia & Tony for their exceptional service.
We dined in Amalia last night on Chefs Table , I think because we were 8 people , we were literally at the kitchen soooo nosiey & lack of ambience. Then came the waitress & took orders like around 9 pm & the food served 11.15 pm ! What ! when we asked why they said the restaurant is packed. ?? We witnessed the whole chaos in the food serving area.
Last but not least, we specifically asked a full body red wine & agreed with the waitress on Porteguse one. The wine was was far from full body :( Then the somelier came & we complianed about the wine on the table , he said the wine choice was wrong & offred another bottle with 20% discount.
Every one had 1 main dish & we shared 4 entrees , 1 bottle of wine ane only 1 dessert. The food was so so , paella was better then the meat dishes.
My recommendation; the whole experience was not woth a 100 CAD per person.
Amalia est une très belle découverte, le service a été impeccable & la nourriture fut exquise avec même des options vege.
Super ambiance pour une date entre amoureux !
Worst experience ever. The place smell/ so bad of oil & fish! We he got here a 8:45pm we got served our appetizers at 10 pm & everything has as burnt taste to iit. Maybe if they should charge their oil from time this time. Fries & calamari wings everything was dark colour because of the oil. We got our steak was not even chewable at all we didn't eat it all & the fries! & they still charged us! Worst service & food.
