About this restaurant

  • Neighborhood 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.

    Food was very poor. It was clear that the most used appliance in the kitchen is the microwave. Would definitely NOT recommend!

    Emily, as usual was awesome. The food is good, but the experience is the service. It was very busy when we got there, but Emily, backstopped by staff who appeared as if on cue, was always there to make our second outing enjoyable. We will be back.

    We visited Amelia Island to celebrate our 30th anniversary, and were looking for places to eat that were not exclusively fish (hard to do on an island). Lagniappe was a perfect match for us! While it did have fish dishes, it had so many other wonderful items, too--the poutine was fantastic, as was the pulled pork eggroll. My husband had the pork shank and I had the pork chop--it was flavorful and perfectly prepared. There were other things on the menu we wanted to try as well, but couldn't fit in another bite! We had a wonderful meal, for a great price, and were surrounded by lovely people. What could be better?

    Consistently good food and drinks. Emily, our server, was excellent. Even on a slower night it's noisier than we would like and the prices are agreeable because the food is excellent, every time.

    We enjoyed the food and atmosphere. Great friendly service. The mussels starter highly recommended. My wife loved her fish special, I was just ok with their meatloaf (it was “ Meatloaf Monday”).
