Amelia Gene's is designed to make every moment special and every gathering unforgettable. Located in the bustling heart of downtown, our restaurant offers a world of flavors, exceptional service, and a warm atmosphere perfect for any celebration. We are dedicated to ensuring that every aspect of your experience meets your highest expectations, from our carefully crafted menu to the cherished memories you’ll take away. See for yourself why Memphis Magazine named us one of the city’s most exciting new dining spots in 2024.

  • Amelia Gene's provides an environment tailored to elevate the otherwise standard cocktail reception. Whether on its own as a distinguished gathering or an elegant overture to further private or semi-private dining, another event, or a performance, we provide the perfect introduction to any format.

    A curated selection of fine wines and timeless cocktails allows our expert mixologists to impress with their innovative creations. Additionally, we offer a collection of handcrafted non-alcoholic beverages for a sophisticated alternative.

    An array of "proper bites," curated according to your preferences, may complement the reception. Chef Nate Henssler will collaborate with you to design a reception that will captivate and enchant your guests, making it an unforgettable experience.

    Beverage pricing is customized, while a “proper bites” guest serving — consisting of three delicately assembled pieces — is billed per piece with a minimum of one dozen servings.

  • Semi-private elevated dining offers the best of both worlds: the privacy of an exclusive dining area and the lively ambiance of the restaurant. Located adjacent to the main dining room, our designated areas allow you to be part of the bustling atmosphere while enjoying your own secluded space. Semi-private dining—which can offer a format of cocktail-style or coursed seated dining—can comfortably host between 6 and 30 guests.

    Pricing for semi-private dining begins at $120/person for parties of six or more.

  • Imagine Amelia Gene’s becomes all yours for the night, with every need met exclusively for you and your guests. A full buyout of our dining rooms is guaranteed to impress, from a grand wedding reception to an exclusive corporate event. Immerse yourself in an evening of unparalleled fine dining, where attention to detail ensures that every course is a masterpiece.

    Co-create a completely custom menu with Chef Nate Henssler that reflects your particular palate, and see it come to life through every detail. Allow us to elevate your special event from exceptional to truly unforgettable.

    Full restaurant buyouts are designed to cater to a range of palates, beginning at $6,000 depending on the night of the week.
