Amara is a transportive dining experience rooted in the sun-soaked spirit of the Mediterranean.
Every detail—from the hand-finished walls and garden courtyard to the seasonal, chef-led menu—is crafted with elegance, intention, and care. Drawing inspiration from the coastlines of Greece, Morocco, southern Spain, and beyond, the food is vibrant yet restrained, allowing exceptional ingredients to shine. The atmosphere is warm and unhurried, designed for gathering, lingering, and escape. Amara offers a sense of quiet luxury—an elevated experience that feels effortless.
Paradise, found, not for someday but everyday.
The Amara Membership
The Amara Membership is $400 per quarter. Members enjoy:
House Account
$450 (your $400 membership plus a $50 bonus) will be loaded to your personal house account every three months. These funds can be used at Amara, and our sister restaurants, Rasa, and Saffron.
Having a house account means your bill can be handled easily and elegantly. For example, you won’t need to wait around for a final bill or take out a card after your meal. You will still receive an email receipt and can request a paper copy should you choose.
Unused funds do not expire.
Text Concierge
A text-based concierge that is a direct line to the restaurant for reservations and special requests. Members can make arrangements through us personally, including last-minute reservations, private event inquiries, and same-day access to book the Garden for group events with no minimum, if the space is available.
Celebrations
- A cocktail on the house for the month of your birthday, for you and a guest
- A house-selected bottle and appetizer on us when you book a private event, or a large table of 8 or more people

How it works
How do house accounts work?
As a member, $450 will be loaded onto your personal house account every three months. This means the entire membership fee plus a $50 bonus will be added every quarter. These funds can be used for any purchase at Amara, and at our sister restaurants, Rasa and Saffron.
Simply let our front-of-house know that you are an Amara member when you visit any of our restaurants, or by leaving a note on your online reservations. At the end of your meal, you have the option to pay the bill using the funds in your house account. If your meal happens to cost more than the amount of funds you have remaining, the difference will be charged to your payment method on file automatically, without you needing to take out a card. Your house account can be used to handle any payments with us effortlessly and privately, and there is no need to wait around for a paper check.
Any funds you do not use will be rolled over, and will not expire.
How do I cancel my membership?
You can cancel your membership at any time by visiting the My Membership section of your Member Portal. If you choose to cancel your membership, you will still have access to member benefits and your house account until the end of the current billing period. Please plan to use any remaining funds during this time to make sure you get the most out of your membership.
