    Great coffee and pastry shop! The nutella bombolini came out warm and was a delicious treat! Biscotti was clearly fresh and really good. The hot chocolate was soo good and not too heavy. The whipped cream on the side was a great touch. Decent amount of space inside to sit (more then a usual nyc coffee shop) and the service was extremely quick. Its not the place to work on a weekend bc it is loud but a great place for a date or to catch up with friends. Loved this place and would be back!

    This new addition to the upper west side next to the Holy Church is a nice big Italian caffe restaurant with outside seating and inside. They serve desserts and a variety of coffee drinks and wine. Nice place to catch with an old friend.

    Excellent coffee, pastries, atmosphere, and great service. The perfect place to come with friends or alone. One of my favorite spots in the neighborhood.

    In a neighborhood full of options, this should be your go-to place for a light bite - coffee, pastries (try the chocolate-dipped biscotti!), sandwiches, wine and hot chocolate. Let me tell you more about the hot chocolate- the perfect size, the perfect richness, and the perfect amount of decadent *real* whipped cream served in the side. The space is simple, lovely and cozy - the perfect bistro experience. Ask for Enzo - he's wonderful and attentive!

    Absolutely delicious

    This is a cute small place. The staff is very nice. And the hot chocolate is otherworldly. My daughter said, "I didn't know hot chocolate could taste like this!!"

    Really cute and vibe wine/coffee bar in upper Westside great coffee, delightful wine and the ambience is to die for the services friendly and not rushed. Would highly recommend.

    It's often a challenge to award stars to a very good restaurant experience because the number of…read morevariables are immense, but I had an excellent experience at Amelie on the Upper West Side a few nights ago. I was able to make reservations at the last minute on a Sat night despite July being a very touristy month in the city. We arrived early and an outdoor table was just finishing up so we were sat within a handful of minutes. Beautiful evening to sit outdoors and the people-watching was good but not bothersome. We ordered Escargot, crispy artichokes, french onion soup, the duck and the steak au poive, all of which were excellent (the duck was very nice). Despite the variety of wine available we were enjoying cocktails and our water glasses were constantly refilled. The service was very good as well and the maitre d was also very pleasant. Very solid performance and would love to revisit at a later date.

    I have been looking forward to try this place for sometime, finally found an opportunity during NYC…read morerestaurant week on a rainy mid-week afternoon to visit. Conclusion- disappointed, as it's 5 years past its prime, as its last Michelin Bib Gourmand (2021) sign had proven prophetic. Pros- the only non-French menu item off the lunch menu, the burger with fries, was one of the tastiest I had anywhere in sometime. Would have been perfect had I ordered it medium rare, instead of medium. One plus is the decent portion size, for both main entrees and appetizers. Cons- all the other French menu items can use room(s) for improvement. Starting with the mussels bowl, although very flavorful, mussels were a bit overcooked, and it can use a bit more butter, and one less pinch of salt in flavoring. Next, the Escargot appetizer can use more flavoring, and the tuna tartare was way too bland, definitely needs more salt, pepper, and whatever other seasoning to enhance its flavor. Service- server attitude was decent; however, the wait times for food for both appetizers & main entrees were way too long, especially given the fact it's a rainy weekday mid-afternoon and there were only 2 other tables of diners. Given its past glory, and fact there are several other Amelies chain locations in NYC, perhaps the owner(s) of this establishment can take my constructive comments to heart?

I mean it's drenched in butter... it's obviously going to be delish. the fries were perfectly crisp on the outside and layered in salt. weird to have to ask for mayo but they did bring it out. - the, albeit pretty, veggie sides I felt were unnecessary and borderline cold so unclear on how much they really added the meal - the Tarte Tatin à la mode was a win around the table. the apple melted in your mouth. the Poire belle Hélène was good but paled in comparison
