Amelia's Italian Restaurant ·$$$

Situated just behind the Hippodrome State Theatre in Downtown Gainesville, Amelia's is a great restaurant for an Italian fine dining experience. The combination of authentic Italian fare and friendly service has proved to be a winning one, making this one of the most popular restaurants in the area. The sauces that go into the creation of every dish are hand-made, and give them a unique, delicious flavor. Antipasti like jumbo shrimp in cocktail sauce and clams steamed in garlic, oil and white wine are scrumptious, and the meal that follows truly does live up to your expectations. The clam linguine in white or red sauce and the baked cheese ravioli are scrumptious with or without a house wine to complement them. Cannoli, tiramisu and spumoni are the perfect end to your Italian meal.

Amelia's was a favorite of mine when I was at UF back in the 90's and I was saddened that it closed not too long ago. Taking my daughter, Amelia, to UF Preview I checked online and saw Amelia's...
