   All was excellent except it was a bit noisy where we were seated- lively conversation at the bar across from our table. Still a very pleasant lunch,

   They were excellent in accommodating our hearing impaired guests. Everything was perfect. We are all still miffed at the Nick and Nora glasses. Two of my friends said they would pay more for a normal size drink.

   We were disappointed. We used to come to Amuse regularly but not much recently. Food was over priced, service was so so. Virginia Mary drink was worst one I have ever had. I watched her make it. 3 fingers of Worcester and 3 fingers of tomato juice on ice.. That was it. Not very good. Meal was rushed. Not coming back

   Today was Easter Sunday. As busy as it was the service was excellent, and we were delighted with our server. Our meals were most enjoyable. Our wait time was minimal as we were at the first seating. As Amuse filled with diners, the noise level increased as one would expect on a holiday. Normally the noise level is peaceful for an early lunch. The view out the floor to ceiling windows is amazing. The pricing is fair. And the menu offers a range of choices that helps with affordability. Our we going back. Of course!

   Please do not go to Amuse or take guests there! (If you do, my wife and I may be disappointed in getting a reservation for ourselves and our guests and friends.) If you must know, this is one of the very best dining experiences in Virginia. But -- please -- do not let other folks know!

   The menu lacked depth and variety. Too expensive for the experience

   My fiance and I had one of the best dinners we’ve ever had in this city at Amuse tonight. Our waiter Chris took great care of us and Chef Will cooked us a more than memorable meal on our 17th anniversary. Everything we ordered was absolutely perfect. We look forward to coming back again for more amazing experiences!

   The "Frida" cocktails were original and delicious, as were the appetizers we ordered.

    We tried the Wednesday Supper Menu which was outstanding. Billy Joe our waiter was wonderful. The noise level is rather high and I feel if the glass windows were made to slide open on a good day, the noise levels could be managed better. Big investment but may be worthwhile in the long run.
