What Karl McCollester likes about Amaru:
We were a party of three enjoying tapas together. Our server was fantastic—very helpful in spacing out our orders, and she was friendly and attentive. The standout dish of the evening was definitely the octopus, though the heirloom tomatoes and tres leches cake were also delightful runners-up. The atmosphere was lively! View all feedback. What Kelly Ramirez doesn't like about Amaru:
We arrived without a reservation and unfortunately couldn't get a table. Sitting at the bar was fine, but there were quite a few empty tables available. I understand they must have had their reasons. The food was good, and the drinks looked amazing and tasted delicious. I plan to return to try more dishes, and next time, I'll definitely make a reservation. View all feedback.

The hostess was our server and wasn’t attentive. We had to flag her down every time we wanted to order or needing anything.

The food was really tasty, service was fast and friendly, little bit loud. Disappointed that they don’t have nothing to take the crème brûlée to go.
