About this restaurant

  • Neighbourhood gem
  • Good for special occasions
  • Lively
The Louisiana French Creole use the term “lagniappe” to describe something that’s “a little something extra,” and that's exactly what chef owner Brian Grimley knows it takes to transform a dish from mere food into an experience you never forget. Inspired by the culture and flavors of New Orleans, Charleston and Savannah, Chef Grimley's Lagniappe- Amelia Island combines the traditions of the French Creole with unique twists on Southern culinary staples using only the freshest local ingredients. And should you wish to elevate your experience by imbibing one of the many cocktails on the menu, you'll choose from a range of both classic and new wave cocktails inspired by the eclectic spirit of the South.

    The food is fresh, and flavorful! We enjoyed shrimp and grits, crab cakes, gumbo and mac and cheese. All commented on how delicious and well seasoned it was. Reach entree was piping hot. The waitstaff offers excellent service even during busy times! What a delightful evening!

    Our waitress, Stella, was the best ! From her greeting at the table to helping us with our drink and dining choices. Her professionalism, attitude, and knowledge, greatly enhanced our dining experience. It was our 38th Anniversary, and she surprised us with a delicious sweet treat after our meal was finished. The food was excellent from the soup and salad to the well prepared filet with garlic mashed, and asparagus. We will be back ! Thanks, Stella, for a wonderful Anniversary dinner.

    Had the blackened salmon caesar salad. Salmon was absolutely perfect both the seasoning and temperature. I know that there is a range of what a caesar salad dressing is, and this was a little bit of a miss for me personally, otherwise I would have given 5 stars. On another note, for an appetizer my wife and I shared the Fall is in the Air salad and it was wonderful.

    Salmon was great followed by a delicious hummingbird cake. There’s no better dining experience to be found on Amelia Island.

    Very nice knowledgeable waiter. Specials were a bit pricey but our menu items were outstanding. Shrimp and grits and catfish were delicious. Will revisit next time in town. Cool modern atmosphere.

    Wonderful Wednesday dinner in Amelia Island. It was a special Ladies night out and Lagniappe didn't disappoint. The booth for 6 was roomy and comfortable. Our server, Jess, was attentive and we appreciated the depth of the menu. It is a nice touch that the draft beer offering included two selections from a local brewery.

    My wife and I had the two "catches-of-the day" outside on a 65 degree patio. They lit the gas fire feature and created a lovely and comfortable setting with great food. We do and will return often.
