What our guests are saying
Top notch food, drinks and service. Everything is prepared well, and has excellent flavor. Large portion sizes. Tried multiple items on the menu, and was not disappointed with any. Highly recommend, will definitely visit again. Both bar and tables are full service. I do recommend making a reservation if you have more than 2-3 people.

Some of the best Mexican food we've had in a long time. Everything was delicious, especially the margarita. Presentation was neat & different here for sure! The atmosphere and service was top notch as well. Shoutout to our server Obed. Don't pass on Amelia's, you won't be disappointed. We will be back.

Mario was our server and was very attentive. Anything we asked for he ran and got it right away. We definitely felt like his first priority. He also makes amazing drinks! We ordered a prickly pear lemonade and watermelon lemonade and he showed out! I couldn’t get a picture of the watermelon lemonade because we drank it all right away. The drinks were beautiful and tasted even better! Usually when i go out and get fruit juices it just tastes like syrup and sugar, but these tasted so fresh, light and flavorful! Thank you Mario we will see you again soon!!
