Had the most amazing lunch there this afternoon - lovely calm atmosphere and the best tuna carpaccio I have ever had. The server was really knowledgeable and friendly. Pity we're only visiting because this is one place I would definitely do repeat visits.

The Amalfi Llama is a great place for a friends' dinner, offering a cute space and delicious but pricey food. Tucked in Westfield UTC, it blends Patagonian fire-grilled goodness with Italian coastal flair. The ambiance is sophisticated yet inviting, creating the perfect setting for an elevated evening out. The atmosphere remains chic and cozy, with warm woods and a glowing parrilla grill. The staff is attentive, making guests feel welcomed and providing amazing service. Guests have praised the exceptional service, with friendly interactions from the hostess to the servers. The Short Rib Empanada is flaky and smoky perfection, while the wood-fired ribeye and prime ribeye are cooked to perfection with great seasoning. From gluten-free positano pizza to center cut filet and cocktails, there is plenty of variety, and everything is delicious. The intentional and thoughtful service, along with the tasty dishes, make it a top choice for a return visit. The hospitality and genuine appreciation of the mouth-watering dishes are exceptional. The Wood Fired Mesquite Truffle Pizza was amazing, the crab cake was 10/10, and the Spicy Lobster Pasta was insane. Guests have enjoyed inventive cocktails, with the Amalfi Old Fashioned and Jalisco Bramble being particular highlights. Save room for dessert; the warm butter cake and the Berry Fire Cheesecake were epic. Prices are just right, ranging from $50–$80 per person. Booking ahead is recommended as it’s a hotspot, especially for team dinners or gatherings.
