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.
