Amara

A courtyard garden from the Michelin-recognized team behind Rasa and Saffron

California Mediterranean cooking over open fire is the premise in Belmont, built on seasonal produce and running to wood-fired shakshuka, oysters, octopus and pita. Seating spans a garden strung with lights, an indoor dining room and a private room. The schedule covers garden brunch, an afternoon aperitivo hour, dinner service with a DJ on Fridays, and private events for 10 to more than 250 guests.
