Our meal was incredible especially when considering the affordable prices. I spent a lot of time searching for a restaurant that would provide a high quality meal and appropriate setting for our celebration without forcing anyone to spend more than they wanted to before I settled on Amoré and I was NOT disappointed! In fact, I was impressed beyond expectation as were the other members of my party! In addition our service was impeccable. Each course was delivered promptly with little to no delay between each course, finished plates were removed from the table quickly and our glasses were not less than half full at any moment! Our server, Jacob, was personable and very attentive without being overbearing. We also received a delicious crème brûlée on the house along with spoons for all of us so that we could all share to finish off our birthday celebration. I would absolutely return to Amorè as well as recommend to friends!

We have visited Amore several times. Always a very good and pleasant dining experience. This time we were in the small room which was nice but the neighboring table's conversation was distracting. Only two disappointing items. One was no decaf cappuccino available, and the coffee is served in stainless steel cups. Maybe to retain the heat? But unattractive and unpleasant. Would much prefer a china cup. We will return for special occasions. The prices, as with all restaurants, have increased substantially. However, at Amore you do receive exceptional service and a very good meal that does justify the cost.

My husband and I went to Amore for our anniversary and had the best experience. The food, service and ambience were all fantastic. The portions are huge so come hungry! Highly recommend the Cesar salad and angel hair bolognese. Also the bread pudding was probably the best I’ve ever had. Huge menu so there is something for everyone. Also our waiter was so nice!! EXCELLENT SERVICE! They even brought us complementary crème brûlée for our anniversary, which was also very yummy!! Overall 10/10 highly recommend
