    Ravioli Alfredo Spinach and french fries
    Ravi K.

    We stopped here for lunch. The prices are reasonable and staff is quite friendly. Pizza and Ravioli tasted okay. Garlic bread and French fries were the best.

    Garbage is where this meal belongs. I even tipped them $10 in advance !!!! Just to avoid this. But this restaurant is just horrible.

    NEVER EVER AGAIN... how in your own consciousness do you become a cook or chef with no aspirations of making meals? No shame in letting wack meals get delivered? I ordered the worst chicken Alfredo in history!! Me & my wife only ate the broccoli because the soggy chicken & pasta was horrible. They probably used laxatives mixed with w.e Alfredo sauce they put in there. THESE ARE FACTS PEOPLE! STAY AWAY WE JUST WASTED OUR MONEY FOR NO REASON. ITS A SIN THAT WE HAD TO THROW AWAY AWHOLE PLATE OF FOOD. I WOULDNT EVEN GIVE IT TO THE HOMELESS. UNBELIEVABLE !!! it's insane that Randolph cafe is even open on a main st. How are they not shut down They called me saying the owners were on vacation and if I want a free meal?! I SAID NO WAY! ONCE THE TRUST IS GONE ITS LONG GONE.... 1st impression leaves impression and that's why restaurants need to be cited on yelp for there horrible lazy meals. NEVER LET THEM SLIDE PEOPLE!! A chef supposed enjoy cooking meals to make people happy n full. Not throw anything together to take our money. THESE ARE ALL FACTS!

    a fried chicken sandwich with french fries

    I called in to place my order and was able to pick my order up within 15 minutes. This place was quick and easy. I ordered a chicken cutlet and a side of spicy fries. The fries were not spicy at all, but still good and crispy just how I like them. The chicken cutlet was pretty big and well worth it, however it was a bit dry.

    Soggy favorless chicken parm - gave me a stomach ache. Never again. Save yourself the time, money, stomach... and just order somewhere else

    The absolute WORSE PLACE IN THE WORLD to get a chicken parm pasta. So many things wrong with this order. I used to order from here with no problems but it's been getting worse and worse. * ordered a chicken parm with specific request, they said they can do it - crispy chicken on top of the cheese and sauce - what I got? SOGGY chicken... with NO cheese. Oh and no flavor. * the delivery took 1 hour and 10 minutes. * called them back and explained all of that, the girl's excuse was that that's just how they make the pasta... if that's the case, she could have just said they can't take my request when I first asked. Anyways, they said they can make a new one if I return the 1st one. That means 2 hours before I can eat. Because they couldnt make it right the first time. * told them it's fine they said they will make sure the next time and I said it's fine I wont be ordering from there again and the girl laughed. * barely ate half of it, had a bad stomach ache an hour after eating it. It was really not worth it. Cant get the food right and then is rude and disrespectful about it when confronted. $12 to learn my lesson with these people. Better than consistently supporting a business that don't really care about their customers. The food is the absolute worse too. Never tasted a chicken parm this disgusting. Waste your money and learn the hard way like I did or just read these reviews and stay away.

    Decently priced, place to park and many selections to choose from, such as pizza, subs, etc. I ordered a large meat lover pizza and steak and cheese sub. All decent size and very flavorful.

    Just uncut, long chicken strips from my wrap.

    Ordered a chicken and cheese wrap. At the last minute I asked to change the wrap to a wheat wrap and they refused. You would think it would be easy to unroll the wrap and change it. So anyway, I take it and get home....and bite into 4 long chicken strips, in a wrap!!! They could have cut the chicken up!!! They also didn't add the Mayo I asked for......

Matteo tends bar and isn't intrusive. If you want more chit chat, you might not find it here, but the staff is friendly and respectfully distant but approachable. Food was amazing! Cocktails were amazing! I didn't photograph it all due to being so hungry, I forgot! The lemon drop martini is exceptional and none of that silly sugarcoated rim. Naturally delicious with a lemon slice. Meatballs were sensational (no photo). Get them!!! It wasn't crowded at 5, but wait an hour and the place fills up. Make a rez!

While there seemed to be at least…read more10 employees walking around (or standing and looking at their phones) the bar area still had long waits. There is no reason to make a table wait 10 to 15 minutes to get their drinks when the bar is 50 feet from the table and we can clearly see there are 3-4 people behind the bar not doing anything. The food is not made upon ordering. I tried to order the penne vodka without the bacon in the sauce. I was told that "that's the way it comes." So it was pretty clear that the cook is not making any sauce when you order it. (This isn't a red sauce that takes hours.) The pasta is from a box so the prices that they charge for it are not justified. Overly loud Spanish love ballad music was playing at 5 PM in this nearly empty restaurant. Between that and the gigantic white feather decorations just over my partner's head I would say the vibes were off. My partner had seen this restaurant while walking around and thought it could be a good place to try out. He was pretty upset that the restaurant was so meh and that he took me there for my birthday. Bad music. Bad decor. Bad service. Mediocre food.

The Lobster Mac & Cheese was outstanding, honestly better than what I've had at places like Capital Grille. Add in the fresh, delicious bread, and the meal starts off perfectly. I highly recommend the Brandt 14 ounce Aged New York Sirloin; it was easily my favorite dish of the night. And don't leave without trying the New York Cheesecake the perfect ending to an amazing meal! The ambiance of the restaurant was warm, elegant, and inviting, making it a great place for a relaxing dinner. The atmosphere paired perfectly with the excellent food and attentive service, creating an overall upscale dining experience. A special shoutout to our waiter, Quinten L., who provided exceptional service throughout the evening. He promptly cleared our plates after each course and even wiped down the table between meals, which really showed attention to detail. Thank you, Quinten L, for making our dining experience even more enjoyable!

    I was attempting to treat my elderly grandmother to a very special meal as I was passing by her…read moreassisted living facility on a work trip and read great reviews about this place. When it comes to steaks, I rarely eat out because I have a paranoia of being let down. I always buy my meat from a butcher and cook them beautifully on a charcoal (yes, if you cook on propane it's not actually grilling - poser) grill. This trip to Amelias reinforced why I shouldn't stray from handling good meat myself. The place itself is cool, my grandmother was very impressed which is honestly all that matters. Of course she was enamored by the bread options and the whipped butter with olive oil was honestly a nice touch. I ordered a bottle of pellegrino and was surprised the waitress never topped me off (get your mind out of the gutter). Whatever, I had to serve my own drink but at a place of that caliber you'd think the wait staff would understand that when a bottle of any sort is purchased they should be asking the diners if they'd like a refill. We ordered the tuna tartare and my grandmother had never even heard of such a dish before. She enjoyed a bite and then I inhaled the rest - yes I am fat and hungry NOT SORRY. We ordered our steaks and I got excited too soon. I can't help but shake my head, I NEVER get steaks out any more because even at steak houses I am most often let down. I am not trying to sound cheap but at $68 a steak I am expecting a melt in your mouth masterpiece (that's what they used to call me back in the day) and honestly the meat we got was a MAJOR let down. Steak alone has it's flavor and this piece was lacking. They overcooked it and it was genuinely tough even with the LITTLE pink they allowed me to enjoy. I was really heartbroken but the only reconciliation for this was that my aged grandmother was ecstatic and this meal wasn't for me, it was an attempt to treat my grandmother to what could be one of her last few really special meals. For her it was and that's the only reason I'm not giving this place two stars.

We were seated in a tiny booth crammed right next to another family, despite plenty of open space elsewhere. It felt uncomfortable and unwelcoming, especially given how empty the restaurant was.

We made a reservation for two couples and specifically asked for a quiet table. We were seated in the restaurant's inner dining room, which is supposed to be quieter than the main dining area and bar. Unfortunately, there were two large groups in that room. One group of about 20 people was celebrating a birthday, and another group of five couples was already loud from the moment they arrived. As the evening went on and more alcohol was served, the noise became increasingly unbearable. To their credit, the waitstaff apologized several times on their own initiative for the unusual noise level. However, no action was taken by management to address the situation. Instead, drinks continued to be served, and the atmosphere became impossible for anyone else to enjoy. Under these circumstances, the quality of the food became secondary. What should have been an enjoyable evening turned into a very frustrating and disappointing experience.
