Wonderful customer service, the server was excellent. He was a lovely gentleman. Unfortunately the food was a bust. The mashed potatoes we're overly salted. The risotto was like goop, not creamy at all. And the scallops didn't have a sear, and they had tiny shell  particles on them.

Great service, great food, great atmosphere. What else can I say? Actually I'll be going back at the end of the month. Delicious!

Appreciated the fact that they were open on Xmas Eve. It was very busy. We had to wait an hour for our dinner. Waiter did not come back to ask us about drinks during that time. My risotto has large long pieces of uncooked onion in it and my husbands chicken was dry and overcooked. Then right after we finished desert we were asked to leave as they had more peeps coming in.

We LOVE this place a& drive up from Corvallis to go to it for special and non-special occasions. However, we went on Christmas Eve & introduced friends to it. It was extremely busy! We ordered the Clam Dip appetizer, 2 glasses of wine & a lemonade. 1 didn't like the Clam dip, 1 thought it was very good, 1 thought it acceptable, but would not order it again, the last I think ate it because it took SO long to get the food that she was starving. They gave such a small amount of Chips with it that we needed to ask for more to even have the dip. My husband & I split the large Fancy Salad, which we usually do. It was bigger but less tasty than usual. My husband did not like it this time. It was big enough that I should have asked for 2 more dishes and shared it with our friends because there was so much and we had to wait SO long for our entrees. I was going to take half of mine home, but the waiter ended up not coming around and with the entrees taking SO long, I ate it all. Letting our friends have most of the Clam dip we ordered. My friend wanted a 2nd glass of wine while waiting, but the waiter was not to be found. She finally got it, but too late to finish it. Entrees: Shrimp Bacon Risotto, what I usually get & it was tasty as always -except that some of the bacon tasted a little off and was grayish. It made me worried, but I suffered no side effects. Beef Stroganoff. Husband's favorite here, it was good. Spanikopita. It was not what she expected, but she really enjoyed it. No phyllo dough that I could tell. Big plate of filling with some unusual top. 4th person had the Chicken & Mushroom Risotto, he really enjoyed it. We ordered desserts to go. We ordered the Ving Vong. Don't know what they ordered. Should have known Ving Vong was a knock off Ding Dong -as in the little Hostess cupcakes from childhood. With the price, we thought it would be something we could share. Not the case. Won't order it again. Love this place, but not on Christmas Eve.

Always an excellent choice for great food. This was Christmas Eve and very crowded, but the staff got it done nicely.

This was our first time at Amadeus, and we were blown away! Everything was a perfect ending to our evening. The service was attentive and spot-on recommendations for dinner. The tiramisu was delicious, and we will be back

We made a reservation for a private room for our employee Christmas party. Had to be one of the best place we ever stayed at. The room was private and spacious. They could have done more with the decorations, but we had a great time. Skyler who was our waiter was awesome and he always got our drinks and cocktails coming. The food was also delicious and big portions. I like that they don't have a venue fee or have a spending limit. We end up getting more food and drinks because there was no pressure at all and was focus on having a great time. Will definitely come back for our next Christmas party. Thank you.

Great food, great service. Loved the homemade hummus to start, only regret is that we didn't have time for dessert.

One of our entrées which included chicken was tough and not flavorful at all. The scallops were overwhelmed by the sauces, and the asparagus was pathetically skinny.

It was a wonderful meal and great service. It was very comfortable and we didn't feel rushed and could truly enjoy our meal

Been trying to order Since September. Amadeus highly prioritizes in person diners only. They do not answer their phone, they cancel DoorDash orders after making multiple dashers wait. Hours very limited to get there in person, but the lack of acknowledgment is why I will never try again or walk in.

Even the owner was walking around, checking on their customers. You can tell they really care.

Loved the Shrimp and Bacon Risotto and the Mixed Green Salads. They are some of my gluten-free staples at Amadeus but yesterday they seemed to have turned out particularly well. Also appreciated that the restaurant called me a few hours before to verify that the large group I had made a reservation for was still coming.

This may sound weird but I am not a big beef stroganoff fan and they have the best I've ever tasted in my entire life. When we go there though we like to try new things but it's hard not to order the stroganoff especially for my wife who already liked stroganoff and now we can't help but go back for this particular dish over and over again.

First visit, and a very uneven experience. Went for dinner around 5:30 pm on a Wednesday. Parking was pretty easy because downtown was emptying for the day, and we got a good table quickly. Had the best hummus I ever had as part of a free appetizer while ordering. I ordered a marionberry mule and wife got an old fashioned. Both were outstanding. Then things got iffy. My wife ordered a lamb dish, and enjoyed it, though the side asparagus was limp and overcooked. However, I had the chicken schnitzel with lemon caper sauce and it was disappointing all around. The chicken was very tough and difficult to cut through and chew. The schnitzel breading itself was a visibly greasy, and I couldn’t tell if the sauce had separated a bit or if it had soaked up grease from the schnitzel. I also had asparagus as a side in the same condition as my wife’s. Finally it also came with mashed potatoes, but clearly they had been accidentally salted more than once, because while the texture was great, they were almost inedible due to saltiness. I thought it was maybe my tastebuds, and had my wife try, and she definitely agreed they were incredibly over salted. Food quality seemed good, just poor execution. Staff was nice, but unhelpful because they never came back to ask about the food or check on drinks after the meal was served. When we finally got the check our waiter again disappeared, and we finally walked over to the bar to settle up because we had to get on the road. It looked like they had great happy hour specials, so I might go back for that, but I don’t really see going back for a full price meal.
