Ate with here with some friends to try the new restaurant in Amarillo. After there was a mistake of a reservation on our end, the staff was very accommodating and allowed us to eat here even though our reservation was mistakenly made a week earlier rather than the intended day. We started off with a few appetizers (cheese curds and steak bites) and moved to the entrees. Overall the food was really good and delicious. If you have a chance to get some desert, the bananas foster is a good choice. The deserts are good for sharing if you don’t want to eat one of just your own. One criticism I have is the drinks. Although the drink had a good Smokey smell, they could’ve have been mixed alittle better. My first drink which was the Maple Bourbon was somewhat water down and the second was alittle strong. Other than this I believe this is a great place to come eat that is spacious and can accommodate a party of any size.
The steak bites and smoked wings were amazing. Can't wait to try more there. This will be a go-to place when we're coming through. It's new as of May 2024 and amazing. The atmosphere is beautiful. It's a little pricey (especially the drinks).
My boyfriend and I can’t stop raving about Cellar 55! We had an impromptu lunch on a Friday afternoon. The front of house was courteous, our waitress (Caylee) was attentive and very sweet. The music wasn’t loud and the dining rooms were clean and elegant. Our food was impeccable. The steak bites were cooked, dressed perfectly, and came out quickly. Burger was tasty and waffle fries were probably the best I’ve had. The back of the house knows what they’re doing. The chicken and shrimp on the Cajun pasta were cooked through, but still tender and juicy. We can’t wait to go back!
We are on a road trip from Arizona to Wisconsin and our first stop was Amarillo. When on a road trip, we always check out local restaurants for dinner. We found a gem! The restaurant is located in very nondescript strip mall. But not to worry. When walking inside, we were greeted with a beautiful ambiance and found the bar to be outstanding. Great selection of bourbons and a great Happy Hour! Great food and excellent service !!!!!
Two of my friends and I went to eat at The Cellar the other evening for dinner. The waitress was kind and very helpful recommending a wonderful wine and assisting with everything we needed. The meal was amazing and then they brought a birthday dessert for my friend. Which made everything even more special.
I was so pleasantly surprised with this beautiful restaurant. Excellent menu excellent wine choices. Excellent food. It it could just be the two servers I’ve had but neither we’re very familiar with the WINES. You can sell a lot of wine if you’re familiar with these beautiful bottles, but then again this is Texas, and I don’t see them being big wine drinkers but if you are a wine drinker, this is a good place to get a great glass or bottle. They cook their beef perfectly. It’s tender and medium rare. The calamari was delicious.
The place is really well-decorated and quite lovely. A good setting for a date or just a night out! You can dress up but it certainly isn't a requirement. Perfect atmosphere. My husband had the French Dip and I had the Smashburger and the drinks were excellent! I had the Raspberry Lemon Fizz and my husband had the Smoke & Mirrors and both were incredibly well mixed! The prices were outstanding and Incredibly reasonable, considering the amazing taste and the amount of food you get. Our waitress was very attentive! We're able to walk in and get a place right at the bar. We could have made reservations on OpenTable ahead of time but we were just passing through so the walk in option was nice! Highly recommend and would give it more than five stars if we could!
I swapped the carrots for brussels and it was a great choice. Everything was delicious. I sat in the bar lounge area and the only drawback was the lighting. It was very bright and could use the lights being dimmed for better ambiance.
