We tried Amici for the first time to celebrate a birthday. The service was good but the food was just okay. The apps and salads were great and nice sized portions however the main course was average. The dessert was large but we only ate a couple of bites.

This was our second time visiting the restaurant and we would go back. The portions are enough to eat and take home to have 2 or 3 more meals. We had the pasta and meatballs (and added sausage), chicken piccata, biccole, filet, and cannalloni fiorentina. All meals were excellent. We had desserts as well, limincello cake, carrot cake, and creme brulee.We would recommend this restaurant wholeheartedly.
Not much parking, but they have valet.No waiting area so we were in the way while we waited. The food and the service were stellar and the prices are more than reasonable.HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!

Every time I've been here, the experience has been absolutely phenomenal. The food is freshly made and incredible, the staff is attentive and fun, and the place is tastefully decorated. Truly a hole-in-the-wall.

We started at Willy’s but found you had to be 18 to sit at bar and my grandson was to young. Wish I knew before driving the 50 minutes but maybe a join error since they never asked during booking.. Willy’s told us of their sister restaurant close by so we took the walk. The place looked nice so we hoped to have a great meal. I got a sirloin strip on the specials and grandson got a ravioli and steak tips. My steak had more gristle than meat and I ate very little. The mushrooms were great and the mashed potatoes were very good. Grandson said his steak wasn’t that good and the ravioli was not that good either. Let’s hope dessert can save a not so great experience.
Food is always delicious, service is fantastic, ambiance is inviting - also nice to watch games at the bar.

Overall it was good. It's a small, loud place. Our waitress was somewhat abrasive. Nice wine selection, and the food, pizza and Tuscan bean app in our case, were good.

We’ve been here 3-4 times. The food is always delicious. Our server was great. The apple crisp was meh, but otherwise, well worth it.

It was a Sunday night. I had been out doing errands all day, and was looking forward to some delicious Bolognese from Amici’s. When I arrived at the restaurant, two girls were perplexed as to where my order was, they could not find it in the register. I called it in, and paid for it over the phone. Also, they could not find that it had been charged to my credit card when it was called in. I asked them to get my order and give it to me so I could leave. They could solve the rest of their issue afterwards.When I got my mail home, I opened it and found a burnt sausage, literally, it was black. and a meatball. Too much pasta (more is not better), had absorbed most of the sauce, which was sparingly added to the dish. The burnt sausage made everything taste burnt. I dumped it out onto a platter and try to salvage some of it as I had not eaten all day. The rest went down the garbage disposal.Not happy that I chose to get my dinner there and $25 went down the drain. I plan on contacting the restaurant and asking for a gift card to cover this. I feel there is no excuse for this disgusting takeout meal.Extremely disappointing. Amici’s will not be my first choice for takeout anytime soon.
