Amilinda

"A finalist for a James Beard award and it shows! Drinks were amazing! I’d recommend the Lion’s Tail. The red pepper soup was tasty (I’d remove the pepper seeds because they didn’t add anything), and the salad had simple flavors but was super refreshing. The beef cheeks were intense. The flank steak and preparation was excellent."

"Loved our experience here for a cozy date night. Sat at the “Kitchen’s Table” counter and Blaine’s service was fantastic (friendly, samples of wine to ensure we liked our pour, knowledgeable). The braised beef cheeks were outstanding. We will go back for those!"

"I have been wanting to try Amilinda for a while and I really wanted to love it. We made a reservation, same day, for a Friday night and had no problem. When we arrived, the night was just starting, and there were only a couple other customers in the restaurant. The menu is limited but does rotate on a regular basis. At the time of our visit, I wasn't really interested in much on the menu. We each had wine and split the Brussel sprouts with candied bacon. The Brussel sprouts were pretty good and I would order again. For our entrees we had beef tongue and roasted cauliflower over pureed pumpkin. The cauliflower was good, but not very filling, and everything was a little on the pricier side so I didn't want to get anything else. I did enjoy the décor and ambiance of the restaurant, the walls are covered in painted tiles, international photos, and the chef's memories. I did enjoy it and would come back, but would watch the menu in advance."

"I had a most delicious meal at the chef’s counter. Chef Greg stopped by to chat multiple times which was very kind and much appreciated. Every member of the staff was incredibly warm and welcoming. The butternut squash soup was my favorite, and I appreciate that it isn’t a sweet soup as some butternut squash soups are. For my entree, I selected the striped bass which was a perfect portion, and the parsnip puree was a perfect accompaniment. Dessert was chocolate mouse over whipped cream with sea salt flakes on top. So rich and tasty. Perfect way to end a delicious meal. It was my first experience at Amilinda, but I will most definitely return."

"Absolutely blown away. Unique flavor combinations and all around delightful place. We will be back whenever we are in town and they were very knowledgeable about my gluten allergy and they have a rotating menu."
