   Our dinner and service was absolutely unmatched. We noted that it was our honeymoon and they greeted us with a card from the chef, complimentary champagne and a complimentary amuse bouche, as well as multiple staff members congratulating us! Food was excellent, drinks were excellent, vibes were immaculate. Can’t recommend enough! Thank you Leslie and Chef Nate!!

   As an avid fine dining restaurant guest, I was blown away by the service, food, and ambiance of this restaurant. MK was the best server, and she made sure my birthday, which we were celebrating, was extra special.

   The food and atmosphere was amazing! We tried several dishes and were not disappointed. The service was good and we were checked in on often and our table was constantly cleared. While it’s a bit pricey, it’s certainly worth it. Be aware that the duck does take a bit longer to cook!

   The service was very slow and we repeatedly had to ask for dinnerware and the check.

   This was my first visit to Amelia Gene’s Restaurant in Downtown Memphis, Tennessee. It was a fabulous find that I came across on OpenTable. The atmosphere and aesthetic was charming and warm and outfitted in an old manufacturing plant. They did a fabulous job of integrating the restaurant into the historical space. My server, Makyla, was very knowledgeable about the menu and had a thorough knowledge of the menu. She was warm yet professional. She made me feel relaxed and comfortable. She didn’t miss a beat through the entire dinner. Samantha, the sommelier extraordinaire, spoke to me about some of their wine offerings. She was very knowledgeable about wines and pairings. When it came time for dessert, I inquired as to whether or not they had any Hungarian wines. She said she did not think so, but ended up finding the last glass of Royal Tokaji, Late Harvest Hungarian Wine. My dinner began withn Amuse-bouche, chefs gift, a root vegetable soup that was intensely flavorful. I started with raw Blackberry Oysters (2), with Cauliflower Soubise, Pickled Cucumber, Bay Leaf. Available year-round, the Blackberry® is raised in bottom cages inshore of Blackberry Hang Oyster Reef in the Chesapeake Bay. Black Sea Bass, White Onion Puree, Caramelized Onions, Brown Butter, with Petals of Brussels Sprouts I enjoyed a glass of this fruit forward and delicious 2023 Domaine de Servans, Côtes du Rhône, Grenache/Syrah, Rhone Valley, France. It paired well with my oysters as well as the brown butter of the Black Sea Bass. Moriah, the dessert elf, came by and did her best to tempt me with an amazing variety of dessert offerings that they had. I decided to stay with a liquid dessert as I had already eaten quite a bit. I enjoyed the last glass they had available of a 2017 ROYAL TOKAJI Aszú 5 Puttonyos, Late Harvest Hungarian Wine. That was my drinkable dessert. I got to visit this region in Hungary five years ago and it is something I will never forget. Intsosommel

   Service was spot on and the atmosphere fantastic! The steak was not up to the standards I would expect based on the service.

    Perhaps the best meal I've had in Memphis. Certainly in the top three or four. Creative menu, outstanding preparation, great ambiance, and a gracious server. I think I'll be back!
