🐾 Fact: Brunch is better with dogs. 🐾

Every weekend from 10–2pm, humans and hounds gather on our covered rooftop patio for brunch. Sweet, leashed pups are always welcome. And yes, we have a Basque-inspired puppy brunch menu because of course we do.

Not to brag, but the dogs consistently give us ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ for service, quality, presentation, and value.

French press for you. Puppy paella for them. Everybody wins.

Come see what all the tail wagging is about.

OK, OK… we heard you. 😂

Last weekend’s Canary Island clams with green lentils, mojo verde, and Iberico ham was such a hit that you BEGGED us not to take it off the menu.

And for real.... we get it.

So while Chef Jamie debates making it a permanent menu item, we’re bringing the magic back for Two for Tuesday ✨

Chef’s selectshared tapas, main, and dessert for just $52. Generous, delicious, and very much the kind of Tuesday energy we support.

See you Tuesday… and every day this week.

“Babe… are we REALLY cooking brunch today?”

“Counterpoint: rooftop at AMA.They take walk-ins.”

“Say more...”

“Pup brunch. French press. Maybe a mimosa. Weather’s flawless. Brunch boards still available.”

“…put the leash on the dog. Let’s go.” ☀️🐾🍳

Brunch at AMA every weekend. Rooftop vibes fully activated.

One of the many things we love about Hillsboro? This community genuinely shows up for local businesses. ❤️

In this conversation AMA owner Jill Craig, sits with with Mayor Beach Pace to shares what makes Restaurant AMA feel different: small plates built for sharing, lingering meals, trying new things, and gathering around the table together. Less “courses,” more connection.

That energy feels especially good on the rooftop this weekend with this gorgeous weather and all of you filling the space with life. ☀️🍷

If you’ve been meaning to try AMA, this is your sign. Bring friends. Order extra plates. Stay awhile.

Hey AMA fans, Erin here 👋

I help Jill with social media, but I’ve also known her for nearly 15 years… and I can honestly say Jill works morning, noon, and night to create something special for Hillsboro.

Restaurant AMA isn’t just a business to Jill; it’s her home, her passion project, and a love letter to her community. From the gorgeous dining room to the cozy rooftop vibes, she’s built a restaurant experience unlike anything else in town.

And somehow, in just ONE year, AMA has already been named Best New Restaurant, Best Fine Dining, and Best Romantic Restaurant.

Now AMA has been nominated for:
✨ Best Restaurant
✨ Best Brunch
✨ Best European Food
✨ Best Fine Dining
✨ Best Seafood
✨ Best Spanish Restaurant

Beyond the food, Jill constantly shows up for Hillsboro, supporting First Tuesday Art Walks, street festivals, community happy hours, and all the little moments that make this town feel connected and alive.

If you’ve loved a meal, a rooftop cocktail, a brunch, a date night, or a happy hour here… it would mean so much to Jill, her incredible team, and honestly to me too, if you’d take a few minutes to vote for AMA. ❤️ Vote here:
