Classy decor and ambient lighting. We enjoyed the tasting menu. The food was presented beautifully, and most importantly tasted absolutely delicious. The staff were very friendly and accommodating of our big party, with kids. Thank you for a wonderful evening. We recommend highly.

AMA is a little diamond in the rough, out of place as a fine dining establishment in the midst of the fish and chips and kebab shops of St Leonard. But it’s defiantly worth a short trip out of Hastings for all on its own.
The pescatarian tasting menu we had featured a Japanese inspired poppy seed crusted tuna, seared to perfection and served on a bed of couscous infused with basil. Sea bass was served as a paupiette with a tartare filling packed with fresh fruity flavours.
The staff were amazingly attentive and responsive to questions, knowledgeable of the food and clearly communicating with the chef effectively for timings and to bring our pairings and to answer questions, but this isn’t an overly formal or stuffy place. Wear a shirt but leave the jacket at home.
Pricing on TripAdvisor suggested ££££ but our tasting menu was £70 and a very reasonable wine pairing menu was £35, for 6 courses, Cocktails at the end were only £10 each and were perfectly silky smooth espresso martinis.
This is genuinely a destination worth going out of your way for, Mayfair cuisine at St Leonard’s pricing.
The food was stunning and all of our party had a great time. We will be definitely coming back soon and are so glad we found this restaurant. Possibly the best restaurant food I have had for a long time. We had the taster menu.
