Tonight at Cafe Amici was awesome. The two awesome bartender David and Regina made me feel welcome. My baby clams in a light wine butter sauce was amazing with crusty bread. And my two esposados on the rocks was made perfectly. The atmosphere was great vibration and energy was awesome. As a woman sitting alone I felt safe and comfortable. I will be going there again.

I attended a 70th Birthday Party and the Brunch/Lunch was executed perfectly by our server, Judy.

Cafe Amici is everything I expect from an Italian restaurant. The staff is very friendly and professional. Inside and outside are kept clean. Atmosphere is very family friendly. To put a cherry in top, the food is phenomenal. I will definitely be returning for another meal sometime in the future.

Came here for my Birthday dinner and as usual food was delicious and service even better our server Kat was excellent and all the other waitresses seem to jump in when ever needed. I would recommend this place to all my friends and family.

This place is entirely mediocre. Food is mostly fine, certainly never excellent and occasionally poor. Servers are friendly but obviously poorly trained/managed. I try this place once a year or so and every time I think that it just doesn’t live up to its potential. It’s a shame. It’s a nice looking place in such a great spot—I wish the restaurant lived up to its appearance and location.

I hosted a small graduation party for my daughter on a Saturday. Affordable and great options. We chose buffet style with 2 entrées, 1 appetizer, salad, potatoes, and roasted vegetables. The chicken parm was delicious, tender, and flavorful. The team who served us was attentive and understanding. They took care of literally everything. We opted for a cash bar, and our bartender was awesome. I highly recommend it! I can’t wait to go for dinner one night. Thank you, Café Amici!

Great family style Italian restaurant. Ordered the specialty chicken risotto & the veil saltimbocca. Both delicious. The attire was relaxed and the place was busy on a Sunday night.

First time there and picked a very busy Saturday night before Mothers Day! Seated us in the worst possible spot near the serving door to the outside. But, that was OK as compared to the 2 Adults and 3 College kids sitting nearby dropping the ‘ F ‘ Bomb aloud all through Dinner! Also the Wood molding could use a Swiffer! Noisy as Hell! Amazingly, the Service and Food was Outstanding and the prices were fair! Will never be on my Short List, but definitely will be back there!
