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 L chicken absolutely fantastic. It was hot, juicy and so crispy. My wife’s food was average. Meatloaf was tender yet lacking flavor. The mashed potatoes were served cold and the replacement were no better. Broccolini was under cooked. Good value for the price A solid place.

    We sat down looked at the menu - ordered our drinks and food at the same time. The meals came out before the drinks in about 10 minutes. Not the way it should be. The special short ribs were very good (2 of us) but the steak frita was very tough, could not cut easily and lacked flavor. The asparagus was very undercooked and could not be cut. We finally told the server to let us sit and enjoy our reservations time so we did. Very disappointed overall. When we told the server about the steak meal, she said nothing. We have been there many times but this time did not meet our satisfaction.

    The short rib was fantastic! Service was a little slow for drinks, otherwise it was great. It was kind of loud, but that’s normal for a Friday night.

    Always delicious which is why I keep going back. Anything you order will be great but next time I vow to order pastrami sandwich. Haven’t had it in a long time and it is soooo good.
