" Amelia's is hands down my new favorite Italian restaurant! From the moment we walked in, we were greeted warmly. The octopus appetizer was tender and perfectly seasoned—one of the best I've had. For my entrée, I had a seafood pasta dish that was fresh and full of flavor. I loved the intimate atmosphere, perfect for date night, though it did get a bit noisy later in the evening. The servers were efficient, although they could use a little more patience when the place is packed. Either way, I left satisfied and excited to return! " (*Curated Review*)

" I really enjoyed my visit to Amelia's Trattoria! The setting is quaint, and my food was delicious. I particularly enjoyed the calamari and the homemade pasta. The staff was nice but a bit overwhelmed on a busy weekend night. I would gladly come back for another meal. " (*Curated Review*)

" I loved Amelia's! Though it was pretty crowded, the wait was worth it. I tried the gnocchi and was pleasantly surprised at how light and fluffy it was. Our server was very engaged and friendly which added to the comforting experience. For authentic Italian cooked with care, I would definitely recommend it to anyone! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had dinner at Amelia's and unfortunately was not as impressed as I had hoped. The ambiance was very homey, but I found the dishes under-seasoned and simply lacking in flavor. The service was fine, but I expected more for the high prices. I don’t think I’d rush back any time soon. " (*Curated Review*)

" I'm a pasta lover and this place did not let me down! The homemade flavors were refreshing, and I found the portion sizes quite filling. We had the arancini as an appetizer, which were nicely crispy. The service, however, did have some hiccups as we experienced long waits between courses. But overall, it was a delightful meal with comforting and delicious options to choose from. " (*Curated Review*)

" Visited Amelia's last weekend and had a great time! The service was friendly, and the decor felt authentically Italian. The shrimp ravioli special was delicious—just the right amount of cheese! The ambiance, however, was overly energetic, which might not be everyone's cup of tea, especially if you're after romantic dining. My only complaint would be the wait; we had to wait about 20 minutes despite having a reservation. But all in all, a solid choice for Italian! " (*Curated Review*)

" Just fabulous! I cannot praise this place enough. Amelia's Trattoria captures the essence of Italian dining perfectly! The pasta was freshly made, and the atmosphere reminded me of small family-run eateries in Italy. Our server was attentive, and the entire experience was enjoyable from start to finish! " (*Curated Review*)
