    This was our first visit to Amico Nave but it will not be our last. The food was delicious and the service was perfect. I liked the feel of its quiet ,intimate, low lights. Unlike the loud noisy too much glaring light atmosphere in many of the newer restaurants. (not all before someone jumps on me) By the time we left it was fairly crowded but the wait staff was still very attentive, astute to our needs. I had the Veggie primavera and my husband had the blacken chicken over fettuccine. We had left over food for our typical go box. We really could have easily shared but decided we wanted to try different meals. We do have senior appetites. I would think the young people next to us would have eaten all of the meal. Thank you Amico Nave for a nice dining experience!

    Nice restaurant with great service and food. Started with mozzarella sticks & Italian margarita. Very delicious! For the entree I had blackened chicken linguine Alfredo. Very tasty & good portions. Ended with Tiramisu. It was the best I’ve ever had! It was a wonderful evening with my family for parents weekend with my daughter.

    The food and the ambiance at Amico Nave are wonderful. It's such a nice little intimate place and a hidden gem, that I almost hate to let the secret get out; but now that we're again able to got out to eat, Amico Nave is my go to place for Italian food.

    Ambiance was good and quiet. Calamari was fishy and didn’t taste cleaned. The veal parmigiana was chewy and very soggy from the watery marinara. My wife’s ribeye was charred beautifully but was ruined from no seasoning. Our waitress was kind but needed to be a little more attentive being that we ate our whole dinner without anything to drink. Overall it was quite a let down because I had been really wanting to like Amico Nave.

    We were the first ones in the door so the place was VERY quiet. Service was prompt and attentive. We have eaten there before and the food was as remembered. My wife had the veal scalopini and I had the shrimp diablo. Both tasted great and the helpings were large. A bit pricey but everything considered, we had a good time. We ate with friends and they seemed to enjoy their meals as well.

    Only one option on menu for vegetarians. That was just okay. Service was a bit disappointing, as server kept taking off, forgetting things, and was lukewarm amd seemed like she didn't want to be there. Due to service alone, we won't be returning. We would give it 3 of 5 stars.
