    Excellent ambiance for a quiet birthday lunch among 'ole friends, and attentive staffs. Salads were excellent. "Light" pasta sauce was heavy but all flavors good.

    Amazing service (esp bread, water, and bussing) and food was flavorful and cooked perfectly. Just wish there were a few more options on all the menus and the portions could be a touch more. Overall a delicious spot for a date night. Ambiance is top notch.

    Randomly saw the restaurant on Google maps and added it to my list. Met my female coworkers for dinner. Fabulous! My favorite cocktail was an espresso martini. It was not sweet (a plus for me), but had a wonderful flavor with a bartender secret ingredient. The beet and barrata appetizer is a winner. It's more like a deconstructed barrata bit delicious. Shared the cute purse shaped cheese stuffed fiocchi pasta with brown butter pasta special, PISTACHIO BURRATA and SHRIMP WITH WILD MUSHROOMS. All pasta dishes were distinct and delicious. We finished a wonderful girls' night out with an amazing espreaso dessert. Ambiance was dark.and romantic - great for date night. Was very happy i stumbled onto the Cafe on my liat. Jessica took great care of us and the bartenders drinks were spot on.

    First time at Cafe Amarcord. Excellent menu and service. Very nice decor. I had the shellfish stew. It was outstanding. Some of the other items we ordered disappointed somewhat. The desserts were amazing. The restaurant was fairly empty so we received very personal service. We will be back next time we are in the area.

    Cafe Amacord is our go to spot for a quiet dinner made with love. The staff is lovely and welcoming, always making us feel like home and the food is impeccable. We can't recommend this long standing community pillar enough. If you love Italian food and love feeling right at home, this is the place for you!
