About this restaurant

  • Neighbourhood gem
  • Good for special occasions
  • Great for creative cocktails
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.

    We had a delicious dinner last night at Lagniappe! The lollipop lamb chops and roasted chicken with Brussel sprouts and gnocchi were wonderful! Shout out to Stella, our server!!! She was friendly, helpful with appropriate meal choices for my husband, who has food allergies. We so enjoyed meeting you Stella!!!

    Food here was very good. Staying at the Omni and food at this restaurant was not much more than half the price but twice as nice!

    Great southern comfort food. Fried green tomatoes and the “L” fried chicken are worth the trip.

    Overall very good. The service was actually too fast. Appetizer came out almost immediately , followed shortly by entree . Would have preferred a little more of a relaxed timeline. Wait staff was excellent, and friendly. Good value for the price.

    The food was delicious! Started with the bleu cheese mussels as an appetizer and they were fantastic! My husband had the filet mignon which was grilled to perfection! I had the lamb lollipops and they were wonderful! Especially loved the sides that accompanied them. Pecan pie a la mode for dessert and the night was complete! Of course, we started with cocktails! It was the perfect way to celebrate our anniversary!

    Emma, the hostess, is consistently incredible and so welcoming! I feel like I’m visiting family when I see her. Along with excellent customer service and absolutely delicious food, being greeted at the door by her is like coming home. This is our Cheers. She’s fantastic. Indubitably 5 stars!

    We had a wonderful waiter Drew. He let us enjoy our happy hour drinks and then we were served the most awesome dinner we have had in a while. The preparation for our flounder was fantastic. Very creative chef.
