We had an excellent experience, as usual at Amore. We started with drinks and fried calamari, for our entrees my wife had the Snapper Francaise and I selected the Seafood Risotto. Our food was fantastic and the service by Chase was superb. We love this restaurant!

One of the best restaurant experiences I’ve had in a long time. The service was friendly and attentive, and the recommendations from the waiter were top notch. I especially enjoyed the Caesar salad and New York strip. I don’t normally do dessert after a heavy meal but the carrot cake was divine. I will certainly be back again

About the restaurant

Great ideas often occur in the most comfortable of settings and Bellinis is no exception. With that in mind, in 2008 after discussing ideas over a bottle (or 2) of wine, the concept of Bellinis was formed. Come see why "Life is Sweet" at our place. Relax and enjoy your own glass of wine among friends and see where your discussions take you. At Bellinis OUR Passion is YOUR Food and YOUR Service.

Bellini's features 100% Prime Organic Beef, housemade pastas, veal, seafood and classic Tuscan Italian dishes. Bellini's maintains an extensive wine selection and weekly desert specials. Our bar opens weekdays at 4pm for drinks and dinner service begins at 5pm Monday to Saturday.

We have two private dining areas available for large parties. Our private dining room accommodates 20 to 25 patrons and features a 48" TV with audio visual capabilities. Our Intimate Dining room accommodates 10 to 15 patrons. Reservations are suggested.

Another exquisite experience. We enjoyed the meatballs appetizer, a wedge salad, mixed drinks, scallops for dinner and desserts (bread pudding and a Trail Mix). All delicious .Service was impeccable as well. A huge asset for our slice of suburbia.
