" If you’re in the mood for fresh Mediterranean food, Amel's is the place to go! I ordered the grilled fish special and it was exquisite – perfectly seasoned. The ambiance is intimate, with a warm vibe that makes you feel comfortable right away. I will say that the price was on the higher side, but you get what you pay for in terms of freshness and quality. One of my new favorite spots! " (*Curated Review*)

" We decided to have dinner at Amel’s on a whim, and I’m glad we did! The outdoor seating was perfect for the evening. I ordered a chicken shawarma platter which was juicy and well-seasoned. The staff was friendly and attentive without being overbearing. Overall, I had a wonderful meal and great vibes. I will be back next week for sure! " (*Curated Review*)

" Amel's has become a favorite of mine in Pittsburgh. The decor is cozy and the staff are always welcoming. I often come here for lunch during the week. Their feta-stuffed peppers are a must-try! The portion sizes are generous, especially for the price you pay. I usually leave feeling satisfied. The Mediterranean offerings are authentic and well-prepared. Overall, highly recommend for anyone wanting a quality meal! " (*Curated Review*)

" This place is perfect for a casual dinner with friends. The vibe is super relaxed, and the service is exceptional. My friends and I shared several appetizers, and each one was delicious – especially the baba ghanouj. I ordered the falafel wrap for my main course, and while it was good, I would have preferred a bit more seasoning. Portions were decent but could be larger for the price. Overall, a solid dining experience! " (*Curated Review*)

" I’ve been coming to Amel's for years and I always walk away satisfied. The service can be hit or miss, but the food keeps me coming back. I love their lamb and lentil soup, it’s hearty and flavorful. The atmosphere can get a bit noisy during peak times, but I still enjoy the lively vibe. The prices are creeping up, so it’s good to pay attention to portion sizes. Overall, it's still one of my favorite spots in Pittsburgh! " (*Curated Review*)

" Amel's Restaurant is worth the trip! Visited with my wife for our anniversary and thoroughly enjoyed the evening. The wait staff was attentive and made sure our drinks were always full. The small plates made for a perfect shared dinner. I highly recommend the mezze platter; it has a plethora of delicious tastes. The atmosphere is lovely and intimate, definitely a perfect spot for a romantic night out. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a mixed experience at Amel's. The restaurant was bustling on the night we arrived without a reservation, but we were seated within about 20 minutes, which was great. The service staff was very polite and attentive. However, my main dish lacked the expected Mediterranean flavors. I ordered the salmon, and while it was cooked well, it was plain and not memorable. The salad was fresh but it felt overpriced for what we received. Still, I appreciate the effort from the staff and may revisit. " (*Curated Review*)
