a plate of pasta with shrimp and vegetables
Rose M.

So atmosphere is very beautiful and music is on constantly! Spanish music playing This place is very nice, the food is VERY DELICIOUS and prepared very well and pretty! The owner is amazing and the waitress is so friendly and kind. The bar and restaurant are split which I love and the dance floor is in the middle. definitely trying again! I would absolutely say give this place a try with no doubt!

Amada Philadelphia - GAMBAS AL AJILLO (Garlic Shrimp)

10/10 we can't wait to go back and to try the Radnor location…read more My husband ordered the Old Fashioned and said it didn't disappoint; I ordered the Rose Gold because I love any cocktail with passionfruit. We came specifically to try the tapas and loved every dish we ordered. My husband's favorite was the Gambas al Ajillo. He loved it so much that he ordered a second plate immediately after finishing the first. I couldn't decide between the Bruselas Catalana and the Coca de Alcachofas, loved both, and would definitely order both again. The overall experience exceeded our expectations and was totally worth the visit.

Note: if you want paella let your server know as soon as they initially greet you/tell you about…read morethe menu. It can take 30/45 minutes to come out. The ambiance of Amada's is very "date night intimate". The lighting is fairly dim and the temperature of the restaurant is kept a bit warmer (the open marches concept probably also has something to do with that). It is tapas style so whole my boyfriend and I waited for the paella, we got a few plates to graze on. We started with a charcuterie with the jamon Serrano and manchego cheese. Im a big fan of truffle honey and you can't really go wrong with a simple charcuterie. We also got the setas and ensalada Verde. The mushrooms were well sautéed and the sauce they were served with was absolutely delicious. The ensalada verde was very much green heavy but thats exactly what we wanted. It was auite refreshing and the oil dressing wasn't overpowering the taste or making it feel greasy. The Paella we got was the squid ink rice - very flavorful. There was shrimp, clams, squid, and chucks of monk fish. It didn't feel like the seafood was skimped on. The only thing I personally felt was too much was the spicy mayo dallops. I felt like they made the dish feel heavier than necessary and overpowered the taste of the rice. The arroz con Leche was divine. Im biased because I love rice pudding but I think adding the puffed rice on touch was such a nice touch.

Address says Hamilton, but it's definitely the area that's at least bordering Trenton. Parking…read moresituation, one-way streets, stuff in proximity and the locale being pretty close to the river seems to point to that. Kind of felt the need to put that out there, it's not really a suburban location. That said, echoing some of the others I'm reading snippets of, WOW to everything - the service, the food, the ambiance. It's got charm when you walk in, looks old but not dated. The waitstaff is super friendly, has some jokes, multi-talented (they brought out the guitar a few times to wish some other folks happy birthday), and knowledgeable. The food is really good - everything I tried was just delicious. For the table, we ordered some calamari and empanadas, and both were good. Drinks were also tasty - that sangria was really good, and the mojito (love that they had it available, first of all!) was also a hit. I would double-click on that sangria, though. For my entree, I ordered their whole fish, which was not only delicious but HUGE. I ate about half of it and was full. Then my friend and I split an order of limoncello cake (I think that's what it was), which was on point, and ended w/ espresso, also good. Overall, everything about that place was great, and when I mentioned a Spanish place in Trenton the next morning to some guys I was with, one of them asked, was it Malaga? That was just another great review, for a local guy to know what I was talking about just by description. Bravo, I think some of us may be back sometime!

The service was amazing & everyone was very attentive and super nice! We ended up ordering 3 of the appetizer specials which consisted of cheddar broccoli soup, empanadas, & stuffed peppers. We all loved the appetizers. For main meal I ordered the vegetable lasagna which was so yummy. But I was so full from the appetizers I had to take it to go. For dessert we all ordered Spanish flan which was so sweet and yummy. And we got both a pitcher of red & white sangria followed by almond liquor shoots as palette cleaners. The icing on the cake was we found out the 2nd Sunday of every month they do flamingo night at the restaurant for 20$ per person! What a treat it was to have a yummy meal & a fun show! Will definitely be back soon!

Desserts were tasty and not extremely sweet. Wine list could use some better price points. Service was excellent and server was friendly. Great overall experience.

We had a very enjoyable dinner at Lita, but what really elevated the experience was the staff…read more Pricey yes, but... The service was outstanding from start to finish -- warm, knowledgeable, attentive, and genuinely enthusiastic about the food. The restaurant has a very open kitchen, and several of the chefs took time to show us what they were doing and explain the preparation. They were excited to talk about the paella pans, the saffron and sofrito rice base, the wood-and-charcoal fire, and the way the dishes were finished. They clearly take pride in the food and enjoy sharing that with guests. We had the pão with cardamom-chile butter, roasted oysters, garlic shrimp, picanha, the meatball paella, and olive-oil tres leches cake, along with Alvarinho wine and a draft beer. The paella rice itself was excellent, with a very good socarrat and a strong wood-fired character. The pork-and-beef meatballs were good on their own, though for me the combination was a little unusual and I would choose a different paella variation next time. Always changing paella of the day. Seafood would excite me when available. The picanha, oysters, shrimp, bread, and dessert were also all very good. The whole restaurant operated as a team. That added a lot to the experience because the people serving the food really understood how it was prepared. Even small details were thoughtful. Our leftovers were kept at the host stand and we were given a numbered claim disc to retrieve the bag on the way out -- a simple idea that avoids having takeout bags sitting on the table or floor. I had never seen that done before. Overall, Lita delivered very good food with exceptional hospitality. The open kitchen, wood-and-charcoal cooking, and interaction with the chefs made the meal feel personal and memorable. We would definitely return, especially to try another paella variation.

When I read reviews that mentions lack of flavor that is probably just less salt which is a good thing, food should be salted at the table to taste not absorbed in the cooking, I don't like salted food. I know the food is made right because I eat a lot and never got a tight or stuffed stomach, even if we split a flan. I suggest asking the server to toast the bread, it is awesome that way. I can't vouch for the other dishes but talk to a lot of people walking out as we dine at the bar, and had a couple parties over the years and never heard any complaints. The interior and service has always been attractive and clean. My all-time favorite spot and I was a regional sales exec and foodie that only eats in owner operated non-chain spots or I don't eat. Spain92 forever! (sorry Sergio we don't miss you as much we thought we would). Yours truly, Mr. Italiano

I must say waitress was Mrs pleasant to the Spanish speaking guests seating next table to us. I guess that must be the criterion for good service. On a scale of -5 to 5, I'll rate this restaurant a -5. I will never patronize this establishment again, even if it's the last restaurant standing and I'm dying of hunger.
