I ate here for Valentine’s Day and from the food to the service it was disappointing to say the least. But the waitress stole herself a $45 tip that I did not apply or approve. There are people who steal from you who work here so BE CAREFUL UPDATE: my money was refunded but it doesn’t change the fact that this happened. So keep a look out for your credit cards when you dine here. The fact that they are saying I wrote the tip in is a complete LIE.
We went for a wedding dinner party and they did a great job. Good food and great service.

We held our bereavement luncheon here and were extremely satisfied with the food, service and atmosphere. It was a difficult time for our family, but this restaurant exceeded our expectations and made planning the gathering so easy.

We just held a large family party (60 guests) at Cafe Amici in their private room. They were extremely responsive and flexible during the planning stages, the space was ideal, and the food and service were excellent. I highly recommend their private space for parties!!

I'm rating this soley on pickup of pizza and my rating is "meh" and for the price you literally have better tasting and cheaper pizza with easier pickup 100 feet down the road. Limited toppings and the wait to receive my pizza was way too long. Looks nice but do yourself a favor and get your pizza anywhere else and enjoy better tasting pizza for less money.

Food was exceptionally subpar for the price. Fried zucchini appetizer was greasy/oily and soggy. Most likely camped out under a heating lamp.
I had the seafood[sic] di mare, which was very salty with bland sauce. Shrimp was overcooked and somehow crumbly, a long with the scallops. Everything else was rubbery and chewy. The texture and taste reminded me more of microwaved food than something I'd pay restaurant prices for. It was also served with mafalda pasta for some reason?
Another person in our party couldn't bring themselves to finish the shrimp Alfredo.
If the price had been more in line with Applebee's or Chili's, the food would have been entirely acceptable, but $140+ for a drink, an appetizer, three entrees and a kid's meal has me expecting more.

Went there to eat. According to their hours, it was open. When we got there, it was only in bar mode. Was told the kitchen was closed, so we all left.
I order here roughly once per month for takeout. Chicken Parm is my usual order and what I got tonight was not edible. The chicken was so dry and overcooked that I literally couldn't even cut it let alone eat it. Very disappointed as it is usually always excellent. I will update my review if I happen to order from here again and the food is acceptable. $20+ wasted tonight.

We were here for a family function and the team of people they had talking care of us were excellent, and so was the food.

Amici's is a very nice restaurant. We were there for a group dinner, which was held in their back room. Hors D'oeuvres were served - I particularly liked the bruschetta and the fried zucchini. A variety of their pizzas and salads were the main course. The New York cheese cake was excellent. I can't wait to sample more things from their menu
