- HHollyChicago / Illinois •9 reviews5.0Dined on May 28, 2025We had reservations for a Wednesday evening (it was our 37th Anniversary) at 4:30 (reservations were not needed). I like the space/interior/decorations/spacing of tables. I pray they get outdoor seating. I ordered the Mussels Bianco as my main course, which was listed under the antipasti section of the menu. I enjoyed every bite. The butter, garlic, and lemon were perfectly balanced. My husband had the Ravioli Granchio, and it was the perfect size, not too much, not too little; he enjoyed it. The bartender, who was also our waitress, was very polite and friendly. I would recommend the restaurant, I just wish the prices would come down slightly. $25.00 for a pasta dish to me is crazy. Overall, it was a good experience.More infoAmore Mio Restaurant & Piano BarPrice: Expensive• Italian• Aurora•4.6
