    This was our first time at Amelia’s and it didn’t disappoint any of us! Every meal was excellent. I had the fish chimichanga which was delicious. Others in our party had tamales, tacos and burrito. All raved about how good they all were. The margaritas were also good. Definitely our go to place for Mexican food. The prices were reasonable and we can’t wait to eat on their expansive patio when the weather gets nice.

    Quesabirria with caldo was excellent. As were the chicken habanero tacos. Service was chaotic on a busy night, but pleasant and responsive when they could come around.

    Peach marg was delish. Veggie tamal was perfect- the masa was so fluffy and delish and the quesabirria tacos were definitely award-winning!

    We didn't actually get to eat here. We had a reservation for 6 people and arrived a few minutes before our scheduled reservation time. They had overbooked and given our table away. It would have been over an hour wait for a table. Not cool.
