    Amore Ristorante is the kind of place that makes you feel at home the moment you step inside. With its warm, inviting atmosphere and attentive service, it sets the perfect stage for a fantastic dining experience. The highlight of the meal was undoubtedly the Lobster and Crab Ravioli—a rich, decadent dish packed with fresh seafood flavor and perfectly balanced with a luscious sauce. It was the kind of pasta that makes you pause after the first bite just to savor the moment. The Bolognese was also excellent—hearty, comforting, and beautifully cooked. While it could have used just a touch more seasoning, it was still a standout dish that showcased the restaurant’s dedication to traditional Italian flavors. Then came the bread pudding, which was easily in the top three I’ve ever had. Warm, indulgent, and perfectly textured, it was the kind of dessert that lingers in your memory long after the meal is over. Beyond the food, the service was impeccable—attentive without being intrusive, and genuinely warm. Combined with the restaurant’s cozy ambiance, it made for an unforgettable evening. If you’re looking for exceptional Italian cuisine in a welcoming setting, Amore Ristorante is a must-visit.

    Kitchen was extremely backed up and the quality of food was fair at best. The staff was great and Steven was very accommodating. I think it was just an off night.

    My wife and I went there to Amore to celebrate her birthday and it was an unforgettable experience. The salads were so fresh and the entrees were cooked perfectly and the Tiramsu was so wonderful. I would reccomend Amore to anyone looking for great food and the perfect ambience to enjoy a wonderful evening of dining. Jim Sewell
