    Great Italian food and wine in a cozy setting. We were visiting Amelia Island and were looking for Italian food and stumbled upon Cucina South. What a pleasant surprise as the menu featured pasta carbonara, my favorite. Cucina South has a good selection of wines, and we sampled 30 Degrees, a cabernet sauvignon. It paired well with the steaming dish of pasta carbonara and the lamb chops that emerged from the kitchen. Lots of pancetta on the carbonara, no stinting there. It was a huge plate of pasta that was so delicious that I enjoyed it all in one sitting. I’ll be going for extra walks this week for sure, but won’t regret a single minute of the eating, it was sooo goooood. Also very nice owners and the chef came out to chat with us. If you are visiting Amelia Island, definitely check out Cucina South. I know we will be returning.

    Thanksgiving Day 2024 buffet exceeded my expectations! Great oceanfront setting, live guitarist and excellent service. The buffet was huge and consisted of a meat carving station (turkey, ham, prime rib), numerous sides, a seafood station including oysters Rockefeller, raw oysters, mussels, clams and shrimp and lastly the dessert station offering all the mini desserts you can imagine. Highly recommend!
