Mediterranean

Neighborhood gem
Great for outdoor dining
Good for groups

Experience has proven that Amplified is an undeniably strong community. We’re an institution for numerous craft beer fans, dog lovers, outdoor groups, and an exciting growing music and arts scene.

Our rotating 20+ house beer offerings, all gluten-reduced, that traverse across the flavor and style spectrum, as well as our healthy, vegan-friendly Mediterranean/California fusion menu are sure to satiate any palette.

We operate under the auspices of “Don’t bore us, get to the chorus!”. We don’t have time for solos. We’re building these harmonies together. Open auditions to join the band.

It is a great atmosphere and the beers are very tasty. The food is pretty typical bar food; although, I have only explored a few things on the menu so far so not in a position to judge the food completely yet. Fries were not crisp the night we were there which was disappointing. I'll definitely go back though.

I dined here with my family on 2/13. I totally understand that things are hard right now and Saturday nights are busy, but I was really disappointed with how the wait staff helped my family. Our server only stopped by the table twice the entire night, other than to close out our table. They also forgot to check on a meal for my brother (not modified at all, an easy pizza to make) and never brought it. I’ve been here before and will come back, but I hope the servers make some changes to the way they run tables.

Overall a nice location but they need to work on a few things as they reopen. Staff is not prepared and untrained. Food was average with major delays and presentation was mediocre at best. Management needs to look at their dining room setup as it is cluttered and looks unorganized. Would return but not until staff is properly trained in both service and execution of meals.

The entire experience was awesome. We were seated immediately. Drinks and food arrived rather quickly. The spicy cilantro pizza was fresh, hot and tasty.

Server and food was outstanding. A little sketchy walk parking 3 blocks away. (Transients everywhere) but great spot.
