Amelies is one of my favorite places to go in the Charlotte area. It is different, always open, and I love to go just to try something new. My only concern is that it could be cleaner. Almost every time I have ever been to Amelies the tables haven't been cleaned. My only suggestion would be to have someone constantly sweeping and wiping down tables or just checking the atrium/inside for dirty floors and tables. Honestly who wants to eat somewhere that doesn't feel clean?
I also wonder about how long some of the treats are sitting in the display. I went yesterday and ordered a croissant from the display and it was dry and hard. I also tried four different macaroons but all except for one tasted like it had been sitting for a while so it had a weird and stale after taste.
Great idea in this place but needs way more of a managerial touch.
