The outdoor area was half empty and the manager wouldn't accommodate a party of 8 because they refused to sit more than 6 despite having plenty of room. Poor business sense. Would rather spend my money elsewhere.

We were shopping in the neighborhood and thought we'd try this "wine bar" for dinner. The food was good but not excellent. We ended up with the seafood pasta and Branzino with a shared amici salad starter and a crème brûlée dessert. My personal highlight was a Purple Haze cocktail. I felt the need to comment because though the service was earnest and they did make things right by comping one entree, so many mix-ups occurred. My first enter came out wrong and then I was told It was not detailed correctly on the menu. I finally got a second - albeit free- dinner after my dinner partner had finished their's. Our coffee order was also wrong and came way before our dessert despite being offered simultaneous service by your server. Like I said, I walked away happy. I just believe it could have gone another way...

Food - good Italian food. Complementary bread came out first. I ordered the Rigatoni alla Norcina at $18.95. It comes with Italian crumbled sausage and mushrooms in a cream sauce and drizzled with truffle oil. Rich in taste and they serve it sparingly. Twas delish and priced right in my opinion. You can taste the truffle oil and the mushrooms. I had leftovers and I reheated it in the microwave and had it for lunch another day. Also ordered the latte and that was ok. Food seems dynamite and worth a return trip in the future since I am about 1.5 hours away so whenever that would be next, I will excitingly await! I want to try so much more! Service - it was good, fast and knowledgable. Dining - it was a cold night but they had the outdoor heaters going so it was great! The experience of alfresco dining in the middle of the Americana at the Brand was spectacular. Verdict - definitely worth trying and going back for seconds and repeat business in my opinion. Great food, good ambiance, and service was good. We enjoyed it and would deserve another visit someday soon.

A nice outdoor wine bar with great wine and cocktail selection. The atmosphere is very relaxed and inviting. With a beautiful view of the fountains. Wonderful place to meet with friends.

Food and drinks were good. The service was great and the price isn't too bad either. Would come back here again.

We had a great dinner and movie night with our daughters. It was a beautiful night and perfect outdoor seating at Ombra, the Amici restaurant outdoor dining. The bartender was very nice and made great cocktails I loved my purple haze and my friend had cosmopolitan and my daughter had a rose. Scott was really nice very attentive and hardworking. Great teamwork by all the staff. We had more food but we started eating and forgot to take pictures

Love the ambiance and their drinks are amazing. The food is good and the prices are reasonable. We usually go there on Sunday to have a chill day w some drinks

Love that ombra paired up with amici. The menu is delicious from amici - we got the rib eye, broccolini and seafood pasta. For the cocktails the margarita and a beer. It's a bit on the pricier side for but you can't beat the ambiance on a summer night with the music, fountain and weather. If you like Gin, they have some really fun cocktails here you can make really pretty/picture worthy. Service is ok. Their website said they closed at ten on week nights but they were doing last call and said they closed at nine. Which I see yelp has correct, they should update the website.

Amazing service from Robert and the crew here at Ombra always a great experience here and the food is just amazing. The best drinks here is the Japanese penicillin, purple haze, and any really good drink that is handcrafted here. Cant get enough.
Convenient location at the heart of Americana. Food was great. Annoying was that the bill had a mandatory tip of 20%. Could not lower the tip amount. You have freedom to increase the tip.

nice little spot in the middle of a courtyard mall - good service and atmosphere. Got Caprese and soup and calamari's- good drinks as well

Located inside Americana, I can say food is good. We had the truffle pasta, it’s highly recommended. And also, considering the atmosphere of Americana itself, I recommend the outdoor seatings where there’s a bar as well.

Relaxing and nice atmosphere! The food was great as well! I got to eat outdoors while enjoying beautiful weather. The staff was accommodating, helpful and friendly!

Great ambience in this open-air patio with a bar and tables for parties of 2-4. I parked at the Galleria and walked over to the Americana on a Saturday at 5:30pm. Due to the limited table space, there was a wait of about 10-15 minutes. Luckily, my friend and I were seated in the shaded booth against the vibrant plant wall. Cue the 20-minute photo session! Our server was hilarious and joked that she didn't want to hear us complain about the food being cold.- Build Your Own Gin and Tonic ($16-21 depending on your choice of gin). I think I did the Amass Dry Gin with elderflower tonic and lemon + rosemary garnish. It was aesthetic and yummy. - Insalata di Barbabietole / Beet salad ($15.35). Tasty, and they did not skimp on the toppings. Mixed greens, roasted red and golden beets, blue cheese, candied pecans, green apples, and balsamic vinaigrette. I don't usually like beets, so I was pleasantly surprised that I preferred the golden beets.- Rigatoni alla Norcina / Creamy pasta with sausage ($18.95). Creamy and umami sauce with plenty of crumbled sausage and mushrooms. The fresh rigatoni was chewy, but some pieces were too al dente for me.
