When you wait in line for 45 minutes on a week night to order pastries, you expect them to be delicious. Luckily, Amelie did not disappoint. I'd say it's a solid A-Ok on the verge of 4 stars!
After waiting in line for what felt like forever, we finally reached the counter (Joy!). Angels started singing and a variety of pastries were revealed. I personally tried a macaroon, a salted caramel brownie and a lemon meringue torte. All were good, but I wouldn't say any were excellent. I found the macaroon to be a little on the dry/hard side and the (gasp!) chocolate caramel brownie to be a bit over-rated (I would have liked more of a salty flavor in the caramel). The lemon meringue torte was cute and tasty and was a little sweeter than I expected it to be (I prefer a little more tang).
The decor was a tad creepy in an Alice in Wonderland way, and I couldn't quite decide if I liked it or would find it unnerving over a longer visit. Also, I think the line could be more efficient if there were menus with pictures/descriptions customers could look at prior to reaching the counter.
I'd come back again and would try some different items, but I'd also try to time it better so as not to hit a rush (which seems like it may be challenging given the popularity of Amalie.
