I had a good experience at the restaurant. The atmosphere was pleasant, and the staff were friendly and helpful. The food was delicious and served on time. Everything was clean and well organized, which made me feel comfortable. Overall, I enjoyed my visit and would like to go there again.

Three couples gathered for a visit and to reminisce. Then we saw several other people there who we had known through the years. We stayed for a long time and were so well treated by your staff. Of course the food and wine were spectacular too. Thank you so much for your fine care.

Amore was a mi e surprise - very elegant with an unassuming facade.
Great decorated and warm reception.
They do not have a liquor license so wi d & beer are the only spirits.

The service was attentive, although they frequently brought out the wrong orders.

Wine menu seemed varied, but not as...
