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.

    Our server was amazing But the food was mediocre. I got the crab cakes and it had a mushy paste texture from having too much filler so don’t get those. The mussels and calamari were good. The lamb was ok and the trout was ok. The busser spilled food on my wife’s white jacket which made the night bad. The manager wanted to pay for the dry cleaning but we didn’t live in the area and told him we were on vacation so just comp her meal instead and he gave this whole run around about why he didn’t want to do that. We just didn’t want to have to contact them for a dry cleaning refund instead of just taking care of her plate. We were pretty displeased that they handled the situation with so much back and forth instead of just owning up to the mistake. Pricing is fair, my bill was about $130 for two drinks one app and meals. Great serving staff But food is mediocre and the experience wasn’t good so Overall won’t be back

    We had a lovely night and celebrated a birthday - great place for that . The restaurant is a fun place for a celebration- noisy but we managed to make our own noise too !
