Best blooming onion I've ever had, and I've tried like 5. It is like a dive bar, wish the atmosphere was as amazing as the food. Mouthy bartender was entertaining, until we needed anything then it gets kinda old read more

It took at least a half hour to get our order, didn't get the right food, took a half hour to get our check, and a half hour to get it back. Poor service, mediocre food, staff needs to open up their ears, and read body language. I ordered a nacho platter deluxe how is that a taco salad???? read more

Went up to the Bar on a Friday night and waited for over 15 minutes to either be greeted by someone, said hello to, or even acknowledge. Didn't happen! Even sat right in front of the register. No "Hello", no "I'll be right with you!" A couple at the bar sat right next to me and was served within 2 minutes. Full drinks and change back from what was owed. Me!? Still sitting! After 15 minutes, no one even said Hello, I walked out. Again, I was right in front of the register and not one of the 2 lady bartenders said a thing! Worked in restaurants, worked at bars, and even worked with the hospitality business for years!, but was never miss treated like here! When by passed over someone who just sat down next to me, shows only thing. Lack of training, lack of observation, and lack of knowing your job! 15 minutes, 2 bartenders and neither approach a new customer at the bar!? read more

We're working thru the menu, about half way there! Pizzas great, garlic bread great, cheesecurds (im kind of a connoisseur) above average/great, burgers regular, breakfast and steakhouse delicious, house chips better than the fries but also tots! (yes, im a 10year old who can spell 'connoisseur', lol). Chef salad fresh and substantial, side salad also fresh, french dip sandwich meaty and served with tub of au jus. Dont forget the fun of karaoke nights, classic car shows and conceal carry classes! read more

Terrible service, food ok.Do do not support or have the capability to handle the handicapped properly. Told us we had only hour to eat, then we would have to move to the bar area. Only high top tables in bar area, nothing accessible. read more

Ameila's Restaurant is a small place with an airplane theme. Many of the Air Force base reservists/employees are there at the end of the work day giving the airplane theme more authenticity. The bartenders are very friendly and the service is great. The food is your typical bar-style options but they are done well. The real surprises come from their wonderful pizzas. They can match any Italian restauraunt around. The crab legs are a specialty that brings many people in, although I am not a seafood fan, those who do order them love them. Did I say bar-style food? Yes, there are the usual burgers, fries, onion rings, and Friday fish frys which are all good. And the prices are very reasonable. read more

I read the "Dirty Dining" review about Amelia's but I hoped they had cleaned up their restaurant after such bad tv publicity I ordered beer battered cod. It was so salty I had to drink my soda after each bite. I didn't enjoy it at all. Our wait staff person never came to ask us how things were or I would have asked for something else. The cole slaw was good. Rye bread tasty. Home made chips great. I would not recommend the fish fry! read more

Clean, nice atmosphere but not what I expected for a fish fry. I was disappointed in the all you can eat fish fry. It was my first Milwaukee fish fry. The fish was dry, overcooked and the beer batter was salty, chewy and not a good flavor. I am a big fan of fish and all but this was not good. At least in my own opinion. They had great rye bread and French fries were really good too. Maybe the pizza would have been a better choice? read more

Fish Fry Review: All you can eat Cod or Smelt for $9.99. We had the cod. The dinner comes with rye bread and fries. It is nicely beer battered and good size portions. 2nd helping came out within a few minutes. Service was good too. I didn't have room for dessert because I ate 5 large pieces of fish if that tells you anything. Dinner for 2 including drinks and tip was $29.65. Ranks right up there with Erv's Mug and might be better! read more

I have been here quite a few times and always had a pretty decent experience. After my last visit I won't be back. My friend and I ordered appetizers. We quickly realized we received the wrong appetizer. The server told us to enjoy them and she would be back with the correct order. After we had both grabbed one out of the basket, the server came back and informed us that it belonged to another table. She then scurried away with the basket leaving us pretty grossed out. We ate part of another table's order and they still served it. read more

Friday Hours 11-2, Kitchen closing at 1am. It's an average Fish Fry. It was nice to sit inside as Amelia's can open it's windows....rare for a bar. The down side is the fish can be chewy where it gets thin and the batter is thicker. Beer batter I think. The upside is that you can have as many fish pieces as you like. Three is plenty, but I didn't have many home made potatoes chips and got one more piece. The slaw is creamy and the marbled bread normal. The bartenders are friendly and everyone seems to enjoy working there. The Fish Fry is above average. Less greasy than average. Home made chips are tasty. read more

I went here on recommendation of Yelp! Was in the mood for fish fry Friday and saw that Amelia's had very nice reviews, so I decided my lunch would be here. I found the location easy enough as it was located on a major street and had easy parking. I stopped in and was immediately greeted and told I could sit anywhere. I chose to sit in a booth, and was meet by my waitress. She recommended the endless cod fry and who am I to argue lol! The food came out hot and with plenty of sauce,slaw and food! It was nicely battered fish with just the right balance. The fries are crinkle cuts and the waitress felt bad that I got the last bit of the batch and she got more for me:) The food was awesome and extremely filling! The service was good and I will be back for future fish fry Fridays. read more

Have been looking for a place with some good all you can eat crab legs for a while and have heard Amelia's mentioned a few times and gave it a shot. Walked in about 6:30PM on Saturday night to a nearly empty dining room. Surprising considering Friday night fish fry is usually packed. The crab leg dinner was no longer "all you can eat". 2.5 pounds for $25.95 including a soup or salad and a choice of sides. Additional clusters were $6.00. The chicken dumpling soup came out like warm at best with no dumplings. Just plain ole' chicken soup. I did mention to the waitress to have them turn the soup up and after an apology, she brought another one out in a to go container. Love great customer service. The crab legs came out and when I asked the boyfriend how they were I got a "they're good but not much in them". My Reuben on the other hand was tasty and had a good amount of corned beef on it. This is a place where I definitely stick with the pizza, fish fry, and sandwiches. read more

Amelia's - 2 1/2 pounds of crab legs. $25.95 - Pizza Near Me - Milwaukee, Wisconsin

This place is easy to find; The Bartender ignored me most of the night. Happy hour was not very happy at all; The karaoke sucked as did the singers. The waitress took forever to show up and when she did she strongly smelled of cigarettes and the place was leaking water like a sieve. The waitress spoke out against most of the food including most of the pizza which is supposed to be the one thing that is supposed to be really well received there. The deserts were all really heavy My salad barely resembled a salad The French Dip was barely passing for okay. If I were going to grade this place it gets a "F" The health and building inspectors needs to show up several times. read more

I ate here with a bunch of people I never met before and it was a great time. There were five of us, online friends getting together in real life for the first time. The hostess sat us in one of those nice curved booths so that we could all pretty much face each other while we ate. We started with the appetizer sampler. This is basically a big ole basket of fried things: cheese, mushrooms, wings, onion rings. It's been years since I had a basket of fried things in front of me and I tried (but failed) to show some restraint. The onion rings were good, the mushrooms were standard, the mozarrella was standard, but whatever the other cheese was (some yellow cheese, Wisconsin cheddar maybe?) was excellent. Didn't try the wings but my new friends devoured them. For dinner I had the fish fry all you can eat special (A Friday night thing) for $10.99 (if I remember correctly). The cod was thick and nicely breaded, not greasy, and very fresh tasting. The fries and coleslaw were nothing special but the fish more than made up for that. The beer menu is not challenging but had some nice choices. I had a couple of Fat Tires on draft. So all in all a good dining experience for a restaurant a stone's throw from the airport and a nice welcome to Milwaukee. Also, I want to note how nice the staff were to me when I managed to drop my phone down a crack behind one of the booths. It turns out the booths are bolted to the floor and even the cushions can't be lifted. So a couple of the waitresses spent half an hour with long spoons and tongs saving my phone for me. And then they refused a tip for their time and effort. Thanks so much guys!! That was really above and beyond. read more

We moved closer to Amelia's about 4 years ago and after living in Milwaukee almost all my 60 yrs we finally walked in the door. After our first visit we have been regulars ever since. The menu items are all very nice but we usually end up there for their Ribs special (Thursdays). Fall off the bone tender every time. They also do a very nice fish fry and fried chicken (not as good as Gold Rush -- but still very good) The only negative on the horizon is their coleslaw. It seems very erratic. Sometimes it's wonderful, other times not so much. Sometimes it tastes of horseradish, other times not. Several nights a week they have live music, it's a pleasant atmosphere with lots of patrons in and out. There's a group of long time waitstaff with one or two short-timers from time to time -- but the longevity of staff says a lot about how they treat people. Give 'em a try, you wont' be sorry. read more

I went there because all of my friends asked me to go so today I finally broke down and said I will..... before I went I checked the menu out online because all my friends knes about was the all you can eat crab legs, but I wanted to know if there was more...... I also checked yelo to see the reviews this place had even though I still had to go because I was asked to go I dnt like to stand my friends up. I had the the buffalo chicken (wet) with blue cheese and my sister and my co-workers had the all u can eat crab legs,and her mother had the pizza. Now I order the chicken wings but I had a taste of the crabs legs and I was sad because I didn't order none I kept looking and their bucket and wishing they where mine. I had some pizza and that was great too. Now im a chicken lover and most places that service other things always have the worst chicken, but to my surprise my chicken was AWESOME. I had a glass of wine and then I was asked if I wanted a glass.of wine on the house! I am a wine drinker so this place stoled my heart with that one glass of wine on the house...... AMY our waitress was the best she was so polite and on top of things she didn't come by every five seconds asking were we ok she let us mingle and when she saw that BUCKET empty like a fairy she came back with an full one... our waitress was on point and polite she will be my number one lady..... The place was an overall AWESOME place and I wilk be visiting again read more

Awesome service and good food. A few family members were here before and recommended. I met up with a couple of friends for a catch up dinner. The service was great. Girls were helping on each others tables. Team work keeps customers happy. The food was hot and tasty. 2 burgers. 1 with bacon. Extra crispy without asking. A top gun which is sliced beef and liver and onions. All had flavor and generous portions. $51 for 4 people food and soft drinks. Not a bad price and we were too stuffed for dessert. Place is larger than it looks from the outside. Everything looked clean. Plenty of parking after 5 when you can park next door too. Will definitely come back here again. read more

Excellent Fish Fry!! ' Perfect for lunch too or an early dinner to watch the airplanes go by, skip the karaoke by planning an early meal if you prefer just music. read more

Smelled like smoke, was dark and dingy. The service was ok, but the food wasn't very good. I would recommend that you go somewhere else to eat in the vicinity. read more

I love this little place. Its in my old neighborhood and I still travel back to enjoy the crab legs. They are AMAZING!!! The cod fish is very tasty also. The waiting staff are always very courteous and nice. I have recommended them several times to friends to visit and taken people there myself for dinner. LOVE this place! read more

yikes! First and last time visiting! i had to send an order of a grilled cheese back to the kitchen! how does one mess up an order of a grilled cheese sandwich you may ask? it was toasted with 2 slices of kraft singles thrown on it. The cheese wasnt even melted. The returned product was obviously grilled with melted cheese but the fact that they tried to pass that off in the first place was laughable. It looked like something you might get in prison and was very obviously thrown together without much thought. The rest of my party was pretty "meh" about their food also. To the waitresses credit, she did apologize a number of times about having to return the food to the kitchen and it came out in a timely manner but, what place screws something that simple up? Sorry Amelias! I wont be returning! read more

The dj was amazing. The staff staff was pretty alright. Very much a local's dive bar. Decor was neat. However, the food was awful. Two of us got sick. So if you go just don't eat there, dance all you want but your supper should probably be beer. read more

Had a good fish fry on a Wednesday night (all u can eat) too. Bad news we came about 1/2 hour before crab leg special ended and the waitress refused to serve them because the cook said he was done with them tonight. She was friendly with some friendly innocent touching (cheesy tip enhancement trick) but it worked on my friends. I would have gave it 3 stars. But the fish fry was almost perfect despite the terrible karaoke crooning read more

Came in for a quick meal, food had no taste and very blend. McDonald's or Wendy's would be a better choice. Restaurant looked dirty and I kept seeing food flies all over. I'll not be back!!! read more

Maybe I should give this place a 1 or 2 star, but it was a quiet and comfortable spot to have a long overdue family get together, and we enjoyed being there, despite the food. The main problem with the food was that some of it seemed old and had freezer burn. I probably shouldn't have let them get away with this, but our main purpose was getting together, not the food. I think it all would have been OK, like a typical Greek style restaurant that has a big menu and none of it is horrible, but nothing is special either, except some of the food had a really old taste. If I ever went there again, I would tell them that last time my food had old freezer taste and ask them to make sure this time that it was fresher (I imagine all their meals are pre-made and frozen), warning them that I would not pay for anything that had freezer burn again. read more

Stopped in Las Wed night for a little karaoke. Host was from "DrunkKaroke" although this host had a decent voice, she was one of the most Vulgar persons I've ever encountered in a bar. And I've been in lots being an active musician. Truly she needs her mouth washed out with soap. What a pig. Returned a few nights later Sunday night. Different karaoke host. No complaints about her. Nice job. However the bartenders were so inattentive I waited 10 minutes after my drinks were gone before one ever asked if I wanted another drink and the place wasn't even busy This place totally sucks. read more

I had the perch fish fry. It was good, as fish fry should be. I am not very impressed with the menu but am very pleased with the fish special. Go with the house chips instead of regular fries. That's important. read more

I have been coming here for two years and I can honesty say?? I absolutely love it here for the weekends! There's no bar fights like the other places around the neighborhood, they have the BEST DJ Michelle hosting the karaoke at times and I love love love the food and waitresses! It does get packed and they do have a decent size dance floor with mirrors so you can see how you working it honey!!!! Such a chill back date night place or apps and drinks after work! L-O-V-E the bartenders the BEST in Oak Creek and South Milwaukee. They are fun, cute AND attentive! We have a colorful crowd and EVERYone is welcomed here! No matter what size, color and sense of humor! read more

Exceptional fish fry! Great service! It can get full, but worth the wait. Good parking!

My first time at Amelia's. I was very disappointed in the fish fry! The fish was wet inside the breading and the breading was not crisp and too salty. The coleslaw had an odd flavor too! The waitress was very nice. Amelia's has lots of local color. read more

Picked up some Fish Fries tonight.... I hope they have a new chief. ... This was the worst dinner I ever had.

The food food was great! The only thing that could improve is the customer service because our waitress had a negative attitude, but that might have just been one bad experience. Overall this is a cool restaurant with the aviation decorations and the view of MKE airport and also a very tasty menu. read more

Had a great steak sandwich (the 747). It was karaoke night, everyone seemed like they were having a good time. I'd definitely go back.

Great steak sandwiches. If you're near the airport and have time, go. Less than 1/2 mile from the best western hotel. Had lunch with drinks for under $18 with 20% tip included. Would go again. read more

Burger was good. Service was really bad. The place was not very busy but our waitress was barely at our table.

Great price, 10.99 all you can eat. Went with my girlfriend. Tried both the cod and smelt. The cod batter was crunchy and the fillets were huge. Two of the pieces i had were great, and one was more tough. Cod flavor was a 7/10. The smelt was nice and crunchy, but a little bit juicy. I am a fan of smelt, this was not great. Id rate the flavor/texture about 5.5/10. It wasn't terrible, but I have had better. The coleslaw was pretty good, had a bit of a kick to it (horseradish or something). Fries are what you would expect for any pub scene.(came with plenty) and a lemon slice. Ill give it a theoretical 3 out of 5 stars because our waiter demanded "pay me" and had little manners, although others seemed to be nicer. I don't want to lower the rating because of the waiter, after all, we are here for the food anyway. All in all, I would recommend it. Nice booths and you can even sit outside. Good lighting and worth the money. read more

Pretty good food for a decent price. Has a nice homie kind of feel to it. Very clean. A great local sports bar overall.

Had an excellent lunch: The Chef Salad was awesome & huge & fresh. The hamburgers were wonderful as usual & chicken strips were perfect! Thank you Amelias! read more

I asked a local where I should eat before catching my flight home, and he suggested Amelia's. I'm glad he did! Awesome food, reasonably priced, and fast service. My server, Monica, was great. The portions are huge. I ordered beer-battered shrimp and got 13 big pieces of shrimp, in addition to fries and cole slaw. I'll definitely stop here again if I'm in Milwaukee! read more
