Delio Susi, in anticipation of his restaurant’s tenth anniversary, refined both his restaurant’s menu as well as its interior design, to great success. Losing none of his Abruzzi roots, the food is clean but clearly Italian, and a little rustic. The warm and inviting room makes the same statement. Drawing on his architectural background, Susi plays with simple organic materials, like square slate tiles and tabletops, and brown leather tufted banquettes. The use of brick plus copper fixtures contribute to the Italian country/casual feel that serves food and wine to match. Wooden floors and European style open windows for the summer add to this ambiance. And red lamps that hang in bright contrast with the earthy tones during the day, shed a sexy flattering nighttime glow. Amelia’s Trattoria offers a personal and authentic dining experience using top local ingredients infused with the heart of its Italian chef.

Service was outstanding. Waitress was lovely and helpful, and when we were splitting dishes, they came out of the kitchen in separate plates, with lovely presentation. Beet salad was excellent, as was the burger. Wish there were more beers on tap, but the selection of local brews was great. Altogether a lovely evening and fine meal.

I liked the location of the restaurant, just off the main rd, away from the hustle and bustle of Hanover St. The staff was welcoming and service was great throughout dinner. The food was excellent. No complaints on presentation, portion sizes or taste. It was all good. We had osso bucco, beef tenderloin and the rabbit pasta.
