It was my first time to Amea Cafe and the experience of having food and coffee was an absolute delight! There were different types of seating arrangements and each style was unique. Definitely a must visit spot !

Such a nice cafe with delicious food! However, we arrived at opening and the front door stayed locked for a dozen minutes, so we went through the back entrance where we found access to the cafe closed. Workers inside saw us and continued about their set up. By luck, we managed to encounter a worker outside who brought us in and seemed to value our patronage.

Came to AMEA Café with a friend for brunch and really enjoyed it! The space is huge with lots of seating and a large study area. You order your food at the counter, take a number, and they bring it to your table, while drinks are ordered separately at another counter. We tried two different avocado toasts and shared the cinnamon bun, and everything was really tasty. The chai latte was also very good! It was quite busy when we went, so the atmosphere was lively and a little noisy, but there was still plenty of space. I’d definitely recommend AMEA for brunch or even as a study spot if you don’t mind some background noise. Great food, lots of space, and a really nice atmosphere overall!

Nice cafe with a beautiful atmosphere, amazing music playlist, and average drinks. I went there multiple times to study and I have tried the matcha and chai latte which are good but not that good so I only come back for the nice vibes.

Very Disappointing Experience – Ruined My Daughter’s Birthday Party I am extremely disappointed with the way this café-restaurant handled my daughter’s birthday celebration. I had invited around 15 guests and had coordinated everything with my friends in advance. I personally visited the café twice during the week to explain that I wanted to celebrate my daughter’s birthday on Sunday, October 11, and reserve a table for 15 people. On both occasions, the female staff member told me that a reservation was not necessary. I also specifically asked if I could bring a birthday cake, and I was assured that it would be fine. However, when I arrived at 10:00 a.m. on Sunday, I was shocked when a male staff member refused to let us in, telling me that the venue had been reserved for another party that day. I was left extremely stressed, embarrassed, and upset. I had also arranged for a professional photographer to take pictures of my daughter on her special day. Since I had been repeatedly assured that no reservation was needed, I had no reason to expect this problem. As a result, I spent nearly an hour trying to find another place nearby that could accommodate us. The hotels and restaurants we approached were either fully booked or required advance reservations. My daughter’s birthday plans were completely disrupted, and I felt deeply embarrassed in front of all my guests. The most disappointing part was that I had visited twice in advance and clearly explained my plans, yet nobody warned me that the venue might be unavailable. A simple and honest explanation could have prevented this entire situation. A child’s birthday is a special occasion that cannot simply be repeated. This experience caused unnecessary stress, disappointment, and embarrassment for me and my family. I expected much better communication and professionalism from this establishment. I would strongly advise anyone planning a birthday party or special event here to get a confirmed reservation in writing rather than relying on verbal assurances from the staff.

Hi! We are truly, deeply sorry for this experience and for the disappointment and distress it caused you and your family on Sunday, especially on such an important occasion as your daughter’s birthday. We completely understand how upsetting this must have been, particularly since you took the time to visit us twice in advance to ensure everything would go smoothly. Unfortunately, we had a last-minute private event buyout on Sunday, October 11, which required us to close the café to the public. Under normal circumstances, welcoming a group of your size on a Sunday morning would not have been an issue. We believe the team member you spoke with may not have been aware of the upcoming closure at the time of your visits, and we are currently trying to look into what happened. Regardless, we sincerely apologize for this breakdown in communication. You made every effort to plan ahead and considered Amea for your daughter's special day, and we are so sorry that we let you down on such an important occasion. We would really appreciate the opportunity to speak with you personally and make this up to you. Could you please contact us at [email protected]? Once again, please accept our sincerest apologies. We truly regret what happened and hope to have the opportunity to make things right.

Arguably worth coming here for the space alone. Food is overpriced on face value (slice of cold margherita for ~10$ after tax and tip), and coffee is what you expect.

Full of people on their making it impossible to find a place to seat and also very noisy. You'll wait over 20 minutes for an americano. Food is ok but not the best for the price.

Beautiful and artsy place and there is lots of artsy installation close to the restaurant. The restaurant itself habe a lot of space. You need to order food and drinks separatly at the counter just so you know..I ordered a shakshuka and it was one of the best I had since a while, even if it was served boiling hot and had to wait a bit before eating it. I think I will come back

We went there for second time as the first time experience was very good but this time the pagers were broken. We waited a long time to receive our food and one of the food was wrong and nobody told us that we were sorry and they just said ok. Then we waited again another time and we couldn’t eat together as my food was already cold. The matcha latte and the late also was cold also because of the pagers broken but they suggested to change it and as it was going to be wasted we kept it as is. It is a very beautiful cafe and very relaxing ambience but I think it is needed to have more attention to details and do some of more micro-managements.

Bland and overpriced. These 4 plates were 62.08$ before tips. the half burrata was watery and cold) I guess having salt was also extra. Quality has decreased over the recent months. I enjoyed it while it lasted. See ya never ✌️
