    Abby was excellent as a waitress. She was prompt in serving us but did not rush us as we wanted a leisurely lunch. Food was prepared perfect and was delivered hot. The Asst GM Travis came to table and we had a nice conversation. Will definitely be back.

    We were fans of Amerigo a few years ago but their food quality and service had declined. We tried Amerigo again a few months ago and were pleasantly surprised. We've returned several times in recent months and been very satisfied with the service (Sarah is a great server!) and food. Last night I observed another party with an issue with their order. The kitchen manager showed up, handled the situation with grace and the customers were very happy with their correcting any problems. Last, we've gotten to the point that we avoid loud restaurants. Amerigo offers a nice ambience and a more quiet experience. (So if you try them, please keep your voice down. :-) )
