About this restaurant

  • Neighbourhood gem
  • Good for special occasions

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.

    Excellent service. I ordered the pork chop which had very good flavor but was slightly overcooked.

    Four of us had a wonderful dinner and drinks last night. Our waiter was congenial and helpful; the food was delicious and served very hot- something which demonstrates careful attention to coordination and timing in the kitchen and with the wait staff. Lagniappe was busy as usual, but we did not have to wait at all since we had a reservation. Love this restaurant and they do great take out too!

    The food was good, but not great! The drinks were very good; however, my husband’s drink was not up to par and he sent it back and we were advised they do bill removals. Asked for steak sauce and was told it was out of date and/or there was none in the entire restaurant. Some improvements need to have the baseline is there for a great restaurant.

    The food, drinks, and service were outstanding! It was a little noisy but that is just the way the restaurant is arranged. We will definitely dine here again!

    I return again and again for the shrimp and grits. Absolutely delicious. Wait staff is always pleasant and attentive and Jessica continued that trend last night. I love everything about this restaurant which is why I’m a repeat diner here.

    Waitress was absent.sides were not delivered until we were finished eating. Food was overpriced overcooked and under-salted. The pricing was ridiculous.
