    Chicken croquettes where cold, catch of the day (red snapper) was to dry and flavorless, the short rib , not soft enough, and dry as well. Too pricey just for the ocean front view.

    Average food for above average prices. Would not go back. The ribeye was slightly overcooked but still delicious. The short rib was super dry and the worst part of our meal. Fries were average, like you’d get from a generic pizza/wings takeout place. Very nice staff and ambiance though.

    It is always a pleasure to be at Amara, the Boardwalk tables are great, beautiful views and ambiance. Service at the bar and dining was excelent. One detail we did not enjoy was that nobody told us the happy hour drinks were only at the bar so when they moved us out to the table we were not able to enjoy our second drink. Now we know!! I still recomend it greatly.

    Beautiful spot with a great vibe directly on the water. Perfect for a casual lunch or brunch. There were four of us dining, and we opted for the brunch items, breakfast sandwiches and breakfast bowls. Everything was good besides the crispy lamb chorizo in the breakfast sandwich was dry and the meat in the burger was overcooked. Brunch bowl was delicious.

    We found cigarettes in our water and found it strange that staff wouldn’t let us sit at our empty table even after ordering our drinks for happy hour
