This was a nice surprise. A really nice restaurant with delicious food and lovely, although a tad slow, service. Would definitely come back here again. The crispy brussell sprouts appetizer is one of the most amazing things Ive eaten ever. Seriously. Next time, I might get them just for me for my entree. The lemon sorbet was outstanding, as well.

Bellamy Restaurant exudes a quaint atmosphere, creating a charming setting for an evening out for our 6 years anniversary. The food served was generally flavorful and thoughtfully crafted. The pork belly appetizer, with its robust blend of vinegar, sweetness, and saltiness, offered a tantalizing start to the meal.The crispy sea bass accompanied by cauliflower risotto was a standout, balancing creaminess and flavors that harmonized exquisitely. The pork loin, tender and well-prepared, was complemented beautifully by the mashed potatoes, enhancing the overall dining experience.However, the pumpkin crème brulee fell short of expectations, lacking the appeal one might anticipate in a dessert. Service, on the whole, was good, with attentive staff. However, the notable drawback was a prolonged wait of an hour for the food. The seats were not comfortable for that long of a wait and our back started to hurt. The server communicated the kitchens shortage of staff, which, though understandable, impacted the overall dining experience especially for the occasion. We had other events planned for the night, but the wait kind of threw a wrench in our night.For the price we feel there should have been more that should have been done for the wait.

This was our first experience at Bellamys it exceeded our expectations. Melanie our waitress was very kind and attentive. We started out with their roasted Brussels sprouts which were absolutely delicious. The French onion soup was definitely over salted, but broth flavor was spot on. My girlfriend ordered the crispy skin seabass with califlower risoto, cooked to perfection. I ordered the brown butter fettuccine which was my comfy food. The atmosphere was very warm in the main dining room. Will definitely be dining with them again.

This is a very intimate spot so i hope u dont mind being elbows distance away from others. Went here for a special event and was deeply disappointed. Food was small, lack luster, and un seasoned. Seating was uncomfortable and for the price its just not worth it.On the plus side there was live music plenty of wine choices plus a rum style daiquiri but thats about the only good thing I can say was good here.

Really excellent dinner option for visitors returning from the Safari Park. Seafood soup was a winner with scallops, salmon, clams, mussels and halibut. Lamb was fantastic. Bread was great. The kitchen was fine with adjustments, combining different parts of the menu. Butter cake was a phenomenal dessert to end the meal. Service overall was very good.

That place is delicious! We’ve come here many times, highly recommend for a date night or girls night out. The blue cheese martinis are perfect. Prime rib is great (served Mondays only I believe). Oysters here never disappoint. And 1/2 off bottles of wine on Wednesday.7 of the 8 times I’ve been here there’s been amazing staff! This last visit was comical how bad our server was, but we’ve also been in the industry so we know how hard getting staff post covid is.. EVEN with the last experience, still a 5 star spot!

This was our first time in here and WOW! Its not that often I go to a restaurant and have an experience anywhere near as good as I did here, five stars is not enough and doesnt do it justice. Our server Fernando was exemplary, his attention to detail and the level service he provided was amazing, I wish he could be at every restaurant, he is a real credit to the business. The food was delicious and matched the service. I had the French onion soup that was on special, the scallops, and creme brulee. Wifey had calamari, followed by the short rib, complements to the Chef and kitchen staff, all of the food was beautifully presented, cooked to perfection and tasty. The live music and the atmosphere was great, not too loud or anything. The wine and cocktails were as good as the food, we sat at the bar for a couple of after dinner drinks at my wifes suggestion, fist time shes ever said that. I cannot wait to return with friends and family and show them this absolute gem of a restaurant. Fernando, thank you so much for an amazing experience, Ill be sure to request you personally every time we return, Im a customer for life.

Although the service was excellent the food was extremely salty which was relayed to the waiter, the meat was a low grade and the noise level in the restaurant was very high. I understand the mirrors are designed to make it look larger but they reflect the noise tremendously and perhaps the ceiling should have a bit of noise absorbing quality.It is not a cheap place to eat so the atmosphere should reflect it. I could hear people at tables across the room and at 75 years old my hearing is not the best. I would not recommend this place.
