Overall, we enjoyed our dining experience at Amiga Amore. The brunch items were delicious, and we also took home some bakery items. We'll definitely be back to try the dinner entrees!

A lovely set of people, spaces and cuisines that come together to offer an amazing dinner. Your choice of the number of dishes, you can sample or try them all. Each dish is selectively individualized - the sweet potato ceviche is so different form the elote which is so different from the artichoke. Every time we go we remember how delicious each one is and are surprised by something new that has been added. The service is seamless, the drinks innovative and the atmosphere never rushed or harried. This is our go-to for family, out of town guests and special occasions. We could not love all of it and them more.

Food was delicious, but seemed a bit overpriced for what you get, other than that strongly recommend

Rae

Lovely restaurant with attentive friendly staff plus delicious fresh food + beverages. Definitely worth a visit for the elote agnolotti, sweet potato ceviche, al pastor pork belly, and the choco flan. Ideal to order a few plates to share (two people) based on the portion.

Best dining experience of my life. Food was delicious but the way the staff treated us really put it over the top. Every staff member we encountered greeted us. We were even lucky enough to meet Chester. Can't wait to come back.

Extremely delicious food. Friendly service. Get the sweet potato ceviche. Sounds wrong, but it is so wonderful. Everything we ate was amazing.

Melissa

An amazing neighborhood restaurant with incredible food, the warmest and most welcoming of service, and great vibes. Every pasta dish was superb and the sweet potato ceviche is not to be missed. This will become a regular spot for me!

Great food (small dishes, but with the heavier side, the portions were more than enough). Street parking

Food/Drink- 5 stars
Rosita- well balanced and delicious! great start to the evening

Elote agnolotti- this is their signature dish for a reason. Seasoned well, hearty, and with the right amount of chew. I could eat so much of this

Duck duck duck- incredibly hearty and loved the bit of wok hei in the linguine. A bit on the saltier side

Al Pastor Pork belly- same as above. Super hearty and delicious. My only compliant is that the skin can really get stuck in your teeth and be slightly unpleasant

Pistachio horchata affogato- it was good, but pretty standard

Service- 5 stars
Food was out quickly and servers were great. Great experience all around

Bottom Line
Enjoyed the Mexican-Italian flavors here. Do come ready for a heavy meal though

Whats the reason for the carne asada being served at room temp? Seems like an odd choice. Thought it was a mistake. Parts of my meat was also cold

Carne Asada main dish was the highlight of the evening. The agnolotti was also very tasty - but served cold to the table... soo it left a bit to be desired. I would have expected more generous pours based on pricing - but my wife did enjoy her sips of rose. Was excited to sit in the bustling little front dining area - We ended up sitting on the patio - which felt leftover from covid - under a white tent.

Service and ambience were great. Clams were really good, but the ossa bucco was suuuper salty. We took it home and rinsed it off with water and then it was edible. We've had ossa bucco before Im the Disney cruise at Palo and no way it was this salty. In fact, it got my wife's stomach upset with all the sodium in it. I brought it up to the waitress in a polite way and she gave us some reason about the polenta and the way it was braised but again we've had this dish before and no way it was anywhere near this salty. I didn't press the issue with the her since it wasn't her fault so I was like ok whatever at least you know.

Very cool vibe of fusion MexItalian food. The burrata salad was exceptional. The elote agnolotti was good, but the osso buco was a bit bland and disappointing.

I really wants to give this place more stars however the service was not good. The server serve food on our table without even telling us what was delivered and walk off right away. While we had fun playing guessing the foods game we thought that kinda rude to be such a rush.

Atmosphere: The music was very noisy . Our table was so small ,it feels very cramp. If you are chubby ,the table I had was definitely not for you.
Overall the quality of the foods i would give 1/5 . My steak delivered to me very
cold and too salty. I really don't like cold steak so that was very disappointing. My husband also said that his foods was too salty. For 2 person dinner with one entree each came out to almost 200$. ( Without drink ) It's definitely overpriced for hole in the wall place with not so friendly service. We didn't order dessert. I was kinda bummed out that foods did not live up to my standard.
Luckily there is a bar + arcade = barcode next door from this restaurant... The drinks, foods, service and atmosphere there was amazing Which made my night special.

The food is delicious, and I don't know if we just went on an off night but everything was coursed out in a strange fashion. We got our salad first, then drinks, then main, then pasta. And there were 10-20 minutes between each dish/drinks. The staff seemed tense and stressed out, so I'm sure there was something happening in the kitchen, but it was weird.

Fusion can easily go wrong but not here. It turns out we waited too long to give it a try.
