first time there and they absolutely did not disappoint. I compared it to: listening to a band you really like and then you go see them live and they are even better live. That's the case here, everything surpassed expectations. Ive heard about them for a while, follow them on IG and like every one of their mouth watering posts. true farm to table with a very eclectic menu that changes w the seasons and ingredients. from starters to dessert, every bite was a delicious surprise. The owners, Tracy and Deanna are rockstars and do it all, cook, serve and host. Ty Amaryllis for a great night of dining!!!

Delicious, inventive, beautiful dishes. Cute intimate spot downtown. They are great with accommodating allergies, too.

This room is cozy as hell. Sometimes tiny rooms like this can make you feel like you e gotta hurry up and make room, but this place just feels good. The service is comfortable, these women are pros with chops that could cause ego, but they chill, happy to have you and super professional. And, finally, the food. Impeccable, near f*cking perfect. What a gem.

Fun little spot for an intimate date. Friendly service from the gals behind the counter. Unique menu offerings. Try the olive oil cake!

Everything was so unique and delicious. I love how their offerings are always changing. It’s BYOB but they have suggestions tagged at the liquor store next door.

I made arrangements to book Amaryllis for a private party recently. The owners were receptive & excited to help us have a great evening. They offered to do some specialty baking for the event. The restaurant itself was a perfect size for the 20 people we had. Since Amaryllis is BYOB, they're very helpful with bottle opening, etc. The ambiance was great. The food was great. The owners were flexible, reasonable & kind throughout the process. Our whole group was impressed!

One of the best meals I’ve ever had. We had the beet carpaccio, spreads, and lamb shawarma. Everything was fantastic. Will recommend to any friends traveling to Providence.

Food was fine. Nothing memorable. What was memorable was the rude staff. They set the tone for the night. I thought one of the women working there was rude, stuck up and quite pretentious. The restaurant is very small, there are no actual tables where people can face each other which is also off putting when you go out to have dinner. It really limits conversation when you are out with more than 1 other person. Providence is full of many wonderful restaurants where you can go and have a relaxing evening with good food and good service. This is not that place. I would not recommend to anyone looking for a nice night out.

Our first time here. This place was highly recommended by many people we know, and now we understand why. We decided to go for our anniversary dinner . The food was amazing, with lots of different flavors! Staff was nice and attentive as well. Definitely get the Salmon Ceviche, braised chicken thighs and Olive cake for dessert! We'll be back again !
This is one of the cutest BYOB spots in Rhode Island. located right in the heart of downtown, this is the quintessential cozy spot. Good for dates, catch up’s and even a pre show meal. The menu is seasonal. We typically get 3-4 dishes to share — though always end up with a small box to go. If you forget your bottle, there is a wine and liquor store next door.Pro tip: grab a street facing seat for excellent people watching.

I really enjoyed the atmosphere and my dinner (Crab polenta). However, my wife wasn't crazy about the cheese and squash salad she had. Cheese was very tough and the squash didn't have a good flavor.So a split review. I would go again; she will not.

Wow! This place is fantastic. The setting is intimate but with great people watching on Westminster Street. The food is innovative, fresh, and beautifully presented. And the BYOB option means you can have what feels like an extravagant meal for little more than $100 for two. We had the salmon ceviche, baked saganaki cheese over fresh squash and pear, and crab risotto. And we still had room left for TWO fantastic desserts -- ricotta panna cotta with spiced pears dipped in chocolate and olive oil cake with lemon curd. Every dish we had was wonderful. The folks at Eno, the wine store next door helped us find the perfect bottle of wine to pair with our meal.

I can't believe Amaryllis has been open for two years and we didn't know about it. Stumbled across it last night when our first choice had a long wait. Very happy we did. It's like eating in someone home - someone who is an excellent cook. The food was all delicious and not pretentious at all. Sardines, fatoush salad, and monkfish crudo to start, followed by crab polenta, chicken thighs and lamb chops. Everything was great but the crab polenta was amazing. Picked up a bottle of wine next door and finished with a peach tart. We sat outside which was mostly nice except for a few idiots driving by blasting music - nothing the restaurant can fix. Owners were lovely. Can't wait to return.
