We were pretty bummed out about the overall service. First time- we ate in the restauraunt and the food was great and service was better. We tried the take out and we waited 48 minutes, our order was wrong and the "Owner" yelled at my wife and then called back to basically give us a hard time. The bartender was awesome but unfortunately we won't be back. We try hard to patronize Southie restaurants and bars. We are from here! This was just bad and we are bummed out at the attitude that we received. Very disappointed and we won't be back. CF Donvans is a little drive but so much better. TC

Pros: Psrking

I went to Amrheins the other night with my girlfriend, it was one of the best meals I have had in a long time. We have been to Amrheins before and always had a good meal but that was all it was, a good meal. This night happened to be one of the better. I had the Maple Glazed Pork special, it was out of this world. My girlfriend had the Chicken Bella Bocca. Our waitress Meg recommended both meals, she claimed the Bella Bocca was her favorite dish on the menu, now, it is also one of my girlfriends favorites. Meg made our night even more enjoyable, with her pleasant smile and great sense of humor, we laughed as well as ate. If you are looking for a comfortable, warm, friendly place to have a delicious dinner and great drinks, then I recommend giving Amrheins a shot. Between the delicious food and great service, we will be back to Amrheins again very soon.

Pros: Great Service, from the Hostess to the waitress to the bartenders, very warm, friendly and comfortable

Cons: Music A Little Loud, Chef Very Loud

I have worked in the service industry for a while now, and I love comming to Amrheins with my family. A few nights ago for the first time, I had a very unpleasent meal. However, our server Hanna was excellent. We have had her before and have always enjoyed her. She is very funny, friendly, and professional. The other night, she quickly ran off to get the manager and they came over and spoke with us, and then took care of the entire meal!!! I was very surprised! I look forward to eating there again, hopefully with a better meal!!!!

I used to come to Amrheins when is USED to be modestly priced comfort foods with great service - not anymore! Poor service, but the food is the real shame. I had the Pork ribs which were such a waste - the sauce tasted like dishwater - I couldn't get through 2 bites. My husband's meal was equally awful. I have had take out one other time since the reopening and it was equally awful. Talk about messing with a good thing - never eating there again (previously at least twice a month). Plenty of other good restaurants to justify not going to this one anymore.

Pros: Location

Cons: Everything else

We decided to try Amrhein's restaurant for lunch but were pressed for time. We let our server Kelley know as soon as we sat down. Kelley was very pleasant and even though the restaurant was very busy she took the time to go over the menu with us and mentioned her favorite entrees. We both decided to go with the clam chowder which was out of this world delicious! My husband had the pulled pork sandwich and I had the ficsh n' chips. We were so happy with our selections and Kelley was really instrumental in expediting our lunch swiftly. We will be back to Amrhein's restaurant and will definately return to Kelley's section. Thank you, Kelley. Lois and Richard

Pros: Our server Kelley and the food.

Cons: Not one thing

The service is exceptional, the atmosphere is hip & classy but not pretentious at all. Food was great and you can't beat the prices. Great for corporate lunches or after work cocktails & dinner. I had a great experience and look forword to going back.

Pros: Off Street Parking

I have been going to amrheins for a while and just tried the brunch and it was an amazing display of food and awesome to be able to go to a bufftet brunch that is affordable that isn't at an IHOP. They Have the football package so you can watch all the games and make great bloody marys. i will be there every week.

Pros: New extra Plasma behind the TV bar
