    Every thing was great! Started with a pickle Martini, and a mezzi platter, paired perfectly in my opinion. I also tried a really tasty watermelon cocktail, I don't recall the name though unfortunately. I had the clams and spaghetti, really nice sauce and they were not stingy with the clams. My wife had the steak tips, I tried 1, perfectly med rare and very tender. My daughter had the salmon bowl and that was excellent as well. For dessert I had the smoke show cocktail, really nice drink I highly recommend it.

    The food was fantastic! The service was truly amazing--everyone was so friendly and helpful. I'm already excited to return. I really love the vibe of the restaurant; it looks so inviting and modern. The sliders were delicious; they were cooked perfectly with just the right amount of toppings.

    I've been wanting to try this since it opened on May 1st. One of the people involved is Paul Ferrante, the owner of Abbondanza's that was in Norwood center years ago. I was seated at a table without a problem. My waitress was Kayla and she was very nice, professional and helpful. Paul did come out to say hi. I started with the onion soup, it was very good. For my entree I had the bolognese. The pasta was perfectly Al dente and the bolognese itself was tasty and rich. Others might think the food is a bit bland, but I hate salt, so it was to my liking, you can add your own salt! Definitely worth trying.

    Gemma is new and I want everyone to keep that in mind! They have a great potential and I will definitely come back in a few months once they iron their kinks out. The pizza was really tasty (fluffy crust, sauce not too sweet, quality cheese), which is definitely hard to find in this area! Menu had something for everyone overall. Service was just OK, they seem to be well staffed but not utilized to their full capacity (waiting for dishes to be cleared, water to be filled, etc.) which is normal with new spots. Food was pretty good, there was one issue with my entrée (wrong item brought out) which they quickly resolved. Their bar was hopping and there seemed to be a decent after work rush. I would consider this for a casual local dining option again.

    Very inviting staff, ambiance is great and cocktails are very fresh. Definitely recommend!!! More posts to come

    We had a wonderful experience using this restaurant as a venue for a graduation party. The space upstairs,"the hidden gem "itself was nice and welcoming and the food was delicious. What truly blew us away, though, was the service. Our dedicated server, Paul was fantastic--exceptionally attentive and on top of everything we needed. They made our celebration seamless and stress-free!

The atmosphere made it difficult to settle in and enjoy the meal. Service was slow and inattentive. During our visit, the waitress also made a comment to my wife that struck us as racially insensitive. We brushed it off at the time to avoid making things more awkward, but it was unprofessional and worth noting. The food, meanwhile, was priced higher than the quality and overall experience warranted. I'd encourage management to look into both the cleanliness and staff professionalism. As it stands, I can't recommend the restaurant based on this visit.

Great atmosphere all around. It's a pretty large restaurant, so even though we didn't have a reservation, we were luckily able to get seated right away without much of a wait. It was a beautiful day, so we ate out on the patio, which was lovely. The food was phenomenal and came out surprisingly fast! They bring out a phenomenal bread basket to start--the focaccia with olive oil was so delicious I definitely ate way too much of it before our actual meal arrived. For our meal, we had the Truffle Arancini and the Ziti in Pink Sauce, paired with a Shirley Temple and a Classic Hugo Spritz. The portions were large, tasted incredible, and everything was perfect from start to finish. We could not have been more impressed with the service. Our server was amazing and kept checking in on us throughout our visit to make sure we had everything we needed. She even wrote "Have a Great Day!" on our receipt at the end. Superb food, wonderful patio dining, and outstanding staff. If you are ever in the Providence area, definitely check them out--they are quite good. Highly recommend!

The staff, managers, server all were very nice and accommodating. Food came out fast and hot. Also had a very nice conversation with the couple next to us, who had wisdom and knowledge of some history which we could relate to. We ordered the following: - Fritto misto 3/5 for me. The garlic/lemon aioli that was loaded on the bottom of the dish was great just allows u to smear and dip everything into the plate instead of a small dip dish everyone has to share. The calamari and shrimp portion is a nice appetizer size. Crispy yes, but our portion was a bit overcooked. - spaghetti Al limone - perfectly cooked, nice chew and portion. You get 4 jumbo shrimps on the pasta plate. The lemon zest sauce was tasty! Enjoyed this! 5/5 - fennel sausage pizza 5/5 I really enjoy the way they make the pizza, crispy, good bites, fresh and served on the plate with a pair of pizza scissors so you can make your own "slices" loaded with toppings. It was a good thin style. Ample bits of fennel sausage, peppers onions and scallion fresh on top. - limoncello mascarpone cake 5/5 This was a great cap to the meal. Light, the mascarpone was refreshing, the cake was not heavy and the lemon flavor came thru like a champ! Not overly sweet which is a plus for us. Some bakeries make their cakes so sweet, that it all just tastes artificial, the slice here was yummy.

It was super cool to learn that they are Employee owned, and currently working on new restaurant concepts set to open soon. Here's what we ordered: - Shirley temple - fritto misto - fennel sausage pizza - spaghetti al limone - limoncello mascarpone cake Portion sizes were quite generous! Much bigger than what we were expecting, based on photos we looked at. We started off with the fritto misto, which included fried calamari, shrimp, & fried lemon with a lemon aioli to dip. The lemon aioli was spread all over the bottom of the dish instead of in a ramekin. We actually prefer it this way! Loved the lemon aioli and fried lemons. Calamari was not bad; slightly overcooked. On to our entrees! Their pizza is thin & very similar to a flatbread. We enjoyed this a lot! Great flavor and loved that we got to cut it ourselves. Came with a good amount of toppings. The spaghetti was made al dente & came with a creamy lime sauce. You can definitely taste the lime here! This came with 4 big shrimps. We were able to finish everything we ordered at this point... so we decided to get some dessert! We ordered the limoncello mascarpone cake to try & it was delicious! It tasted refreshing and not heavy at all. Overall, we had a great dinner here. Our server was very nice, attentive, and helpful with giving suggestions for what we should order. Checking out was also very easy. They offer QR code scan to pay through Toast, which can be scanned on your receipt bill.

The parking lot was fairly empty for the time of day but I was hopeful in their ability to produce some good Italian food. I was not impressed, but only because my late husband was Napolitano, born and raised and he was the best Italian cook I've experienced. I suppose on some level I am looking for him in whatever I can to feel closer to him. As for the Chateau, I ordered an appetizer of calamari. It was good but too much for me to consume on my own. Then came an order of garlic bread that I didn't think belonged to me. That also came home with me after confirmation that it was delivered to my table by accident. The main dish was eggplant parm. It was ok. Nothing that I would deem remarkable. The sauce was bland and watery, that was clear from the start. The pasta that came with the dish was way over cooked as well. To say my experience was "meh" would be accurate. The wait staff was wonderful though and the restaurant itself was clean and cheery. Maybe I was there on an off day. Maybe another look at a future time would be a good idea.

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.
