With more Italian restaurants per square mile in Jersey than any other type of cuisine, we decided on Amore Ristorante, located off of Rifle Camp Road in Woodland Park, for Saturday night dinner. The reservation was easily made via Yelp.
We have discovered this establishment by chance every time en route to one of the entrances on Garrett Mountain. Unfortunately, the exterior doesn't draw one in. However, upon arrival as first-timers, my partner, our friends, and I were greeted by the host and got a table in the corner at this cozy, warm, and welcoming interior with simple decor of pictures of Italy and music playing throughout the two dining areas.
The menu offered Southern Italian cuisine and was limited, but we found meals we liked. Miguel was our server and made us feel so welcome; he read out the specials.
As an appetizer, we decided on the Polpette Amore (meatballs) and Charcuterie Board. For our main meal, we opted for Papardelle Bolognese, Linguine Alle Vongole, and Lasagna. Complimentary bread started our meal.
The pasta was homemade, but the meat sauce was bland. The Linguine Alle Vongole was tasty and well seasoned. The portions were healthy, and the price was comparable to the area. The staff was super attentive and always taking good care of us.

The waiter (Miguel) was amazing. The food was delicious. Definitely coming back here again.
We have been going to Amore for dinner and family celebrations for years. It was always a warm and inviting place that we thoroughly enjoyed We had a larger event for my son‘s graduation party this past weekend and hsd all the food catered offsite. My guests raved about how delicious everything was and asked where we got it from The staff that delivered, it provided the same quality and customer service that you receive when dining at the restaurant. They came in and set everything up and we were ready to go. I can’t say enough great things about Amore’s food and their staff. I would highly recommend for any occasion.
