Excellent Brunch

by kels716

I love Amanda's for brunch and mimosas believe me you will leave drunk they hand them out in an actual glass not a champagne glass so watch how many you drink the food is always good and the portions are perfect for brunch

• Pros: Amazing Brunch
• Cons: None

Over rated! Go elsewhere for brunch!

by fendi3

Based on good reviews on Amanda's, my boyfriend and I decided to check out this place for brunch on Sunday morning. First off, they snobbishly ask you if you have reservations, we did not, waited 15 minutes for a table, plus side is they seated us in a nice booth area. The food is below average! I could've made a better breakfast at home. They don't offer you biscuits for brunch, rather bread rolls you'd have for dinner. We both ordered omelette dishes and they had no taste to them, were in much need of salt & pepper (and I'm one that rarely ever adds salt to any dish). They don't offer you toast of any sort with your dish, so I asked for an english muffin which there is an extra charge for, and it came burnt. My boyfriend and I were so hungry when we got there, but neither of us finished our dishes because they just weren't tasty. We left feeling so dissatisfied and wishing we had spent our $$ elsewhere. DO not go there for brunch, it's not worth it!

• Pros: Cozy, beautiful ambience.
• Cons: Food is below average! Not worth spending your money there!

A gem of a place!

by dinardnj

Amanda's is a popular, but quiet, gem of a place on Washington Street with an impressive menu and attentive staff. It's cozy, warm, and a wonderful place for a romantic meal for two or, like our group, a weekend brunch for six. (Be sure to read the note on Amanda's website about free parking--a great bonus.)

There's even an Early Dinner Special (note: I did NOT say "Early Bird") for two if you and your partner can get there before 5:30 pm (order must be placed by 5:45 pm), Mon - Sat, all for the unheard of price of $28!
