Amal is where the Lebanese spirit of joie de vivre comes to life. Where cuisine, sharing, enjoyment and simply living unite. It’s a voyage through time and place that embraces the pursuit of pleasure. Amal aims to feed and provoke your soul, but above all, nourish it with hope.

Amal is a story. Amal is home. One may come as a guest, but one always leaves as family.

Taking great care to preserve the roots of this sacred, generational cuisine and reinvent these creations, Amal has assembled an experienced team to oversee the menu direction, as they purvey genuine ingredients from Lebanon. Ensuring that every bite, every sip, every beat, has a story to tell. After all, Amal is where authentic stories come to life. Where, many are told but many more, are made – homemade.

For parties 8+, please direct your inquiries to Mila@amalmiami.com for further planning.

We look forward to serving you!

We received our usual very friendly welcome from Luis and his team. The service was excellent and the food was fresh and imaginative, even the chicken wings tasted exotic with spices and a great dipping sauce. The octopus is also a must. Try a Lebanese wine, you won't be disappointed. All in all we had a very enjoyable Saturday evening

My mother was Lebanese, she was famous for her cooking. I grew up eating such fantastic food. This Lebanese restaurant has the closest taste to my mother's food, I and all the friends and family I have invited to this restaurant share the same opinion. In a previous review my only suggestion was to have Arabic coffee (popularized as Turkish coffee) and yes, now they have Arabic coffee! The food is like homemade, tasteful, elegantly presented, varied. The service is excellent, you can tell how well trained their staff is. The place is elegant, well lit, clean, great atmosphere. I really like and recommend this restaurant. I live in Chicago and make 3 day trips to Miami just to eat here 2 or 3 times a year

Best swiss chard and hummus in town. Stunning spot. Fried snapper wasn’t great and beef tenderloin skewer was dry and under salted.

I think the quality of the food has gone down a little bit. It was still good, but not as good as I remembered it. It was also a little loud, and service was a bit slower than I remember.

We had a great experience. We were celebrating two birthdays and they brought out a great dessert tray with a sparkler for the birthday girls. The food and cocktails were awesome and the decor is beautiful.
