Amici's Restaurant: Reviews & Ratings
The service was good, lovely servers, and the food was delicious. The ambiance of the restaurant was romantic and just welcoming overall, I recommend this place for a celebratory dinner, a date night etc; this is definitely a hidden gem in Shelton CT and I will be excited to come back for more!
Food was excellent. Authentic Italian dishes with fresh ingredients. The service was also really great. They were so attentive and friendly.
My favorite date night spot! This is easily one of my boyfriend's and my go-to places. The food is incredible, and I always order their penne alla vodka with chicken--it never disappoints. Everything is homemade, and the authenticity of their Italian cuisine shines through in every bite!
We haven't been to Amici's in years-no reason other than proximity. We recently passed by, and the holiday decorations were so enticing and beautiful, we made reservations. The ambiance is as cozy and welcoming as we imagined. Sitting at a table in the bar, we were greeted promptly, and the starting cocktails were perfect (I appreciate a martini in a coupe glass!) Service was outstanding, and special requests were honored. The hot foods were piping hot, which is a must for me. We agree that we'll be visit again soon, and hopefully often!
absolute best place in Shelton. Clients of mine come all away from Westport and Oxford and can't speak highly enough about this little gem on the corner of a busy road. The Owners are the most wonderful people who walk around and make sure everybody's doing their job and are happy. Their polenta and risotto side dishes are the best anywhere. Everything is fresh and the delivery is perfection. the only bad experience I had was sitting at the bar and the bartender (seems to be there all the time and I think he's even running the bar) was really rude and said " don't talk to me,Just tell me what you need I'm busy" My husband and I absolutely couldn't believe it !! So now we try to reserve a table rather than sit at the bar
Had another solid meal at Amici's. Service was excellent and the food was pretty good. It's as comfortable and charming as ever. We had a larger group and it was a fantastic time. Will happily return!
First time here, came for a holiday get together. The restaurant was beautifully decorated for the holidays. The staff was very attentive and friendly. We had a leisurely dinner and did not feel rushed at all. All of our menu choices were amazing. We had the fettuccine carbonara, penne ala vodka and the special scallop and shrimp ala vodka. I asked for a special dish of rigatoni fra diavolo it was perfect. If you're looking for a more upscale Italian restaurant, then this is the place.
