Amici is an old reliable for us, but we had not visited in perhaps a year. Still generally quite good (excellent duck, rigatoni); disappointed with mozzarella/tomato appetizer: in August, tomatoes should be outstanding, these were anything but.
For years, Café Amici has been our favorite Italian restaurant in downtown Sarasota. Authentic Italian preparation and skill with Sarasota seafood. Attentive, conversational attendants; and a great present-in-the-restaurant owner. Can't beat this combination.
We did not expect the noise level inside the restaurant. We had a table for 4 and had a hard time hearing each other. The food was good, but my chicken in their Chicken Amici pasta dish was overcooked and tough. The others at our table said their meals were good. Service was very slow with our waiter disappearing for long periods at a time. We finally had to get the owner to help us find him. As to pricing, this us an expensive restaurant.
