Upon arrival, we were already sold on the decor & friendliness of the staff. Our server Macy was very knowledgeable in the menu & really helped us first-timers decide what to order. Two of us tried the Chicken Parm based on her recommendation and it was some of the best I ever had! Came with a plentiful side of your choice of pasta & a house salad. I also had sauteed spinach & the size & flavor were well worth the price! A third person had Baked Ziti & was equally pleased. Tiramisu for dessert was delish as well. Highly recommend this place for a great Italian meal!

Had dinner here on June 30th. We got there what we thought would be early for dinner (before 6pm) The place was packed and we waited about 20 minutes or so to be seated.
Now we know why it was so packed, the food was very good. Atmosphere is not the greatest. Very crowded seating, very dark inside… even watched servers going in between hostess stand and patrons sitting waiting for a table. Very tight cramped feeling.
Table clothes are black ,servers wearing all black, just added to the dreary dark feeling…
But… the food and service were very good. My husband said the tiramisu was dry though, other than that we enjoyed everything else we had. Bread was delicious, fresh and hot, loved the dipping oil. Nice big portions of food, we took it home for a second meal each of us. Chianti was also very good.
Prices, yes - a bit on the higher side and many restaurants are charging a surcharge for using a credit card, so that didn’t surprise us. Higher price was fine too as it was very good, and we both got two meals out of it. We would definitely go back, wish we had tried this place sooner.

Want to try their pizza, it smelled amazing.
Always a good place to visit, always busy. It is actually three adjoining restaurants in one: the traditional family owned restaurant, a steakhouse, and a more casual restaurant and wine bar. The food is delicious. Service is good. Prepare yourself to wait if you don't have a reservation. You can sit at any of the bar areas for food, or you can sit at tables or booths. Excellent!
The Chef’s Table is always so good! We had initially decided to have dinner at Amici’s because The Chef’s Table was booked. While waiting for a table at Amici’s, we went next door for a cocktail. They had an open high top in the bar and said we could sit there! Yay! All the dishes were delicious! I especially loved the mussels appetizer with the curry sauce. The service is always superb.
This was our first time at Amici's. We're originally from NY and as soon as we walked in the door I knew it was going to be a great experience. The "Italian food " smell was amazing. Just like home!
I was craving a good slice of pizza, we ordered a Sicilian pie and it did not disappoint. Fresh out of the oven!
Our server was great too. Wish I could remember his name.

Joey was our waiter and he went above and beyond to make sure our large party was taken care of. He was super personable!
The food was amazing and the whole atmosphere was filled with laughter. It was a great place to celebrate a milestone in our son's life
Thank you 🥳
This was my first time in this restaurant. I went to visit my sister and she took me here. I am originally from Jersey. I’ve been in Florida for 22 years and have never found a restaurant that was close to being back home. The food here was phenomenal. I was completely impressed. I left there so full. Thank you for an amazing meal.
My dining experience at Amici's Italian Restaurant & Pizzeria was truly exceptional. From the moment we entered, the welcoming atmosphere and attentive staff made us feel right at home. The menu offered a delightful array of Italian dishes, each crafted with fresh, high-quality ingredients. Every bite was a culinary delight, we will return to Amicis to try other delicious creations. Highly recommended! A local's favorite.
The service was a little slow. The food was hot and very tasty. They use a lot of real garlic. I had linguine in garlic and oil. However, they don’t know how to remove all the husk material and I found a lot of this unetable material in my food. Be careful.
This review is for The Chef's Table (part of Amicis). The Ribeye was amazing as well as the Lobster Risotto 🦞. The atmosphere is intimate, warm and the service was very much on point.
