Review Ristorante Amoroma - Moraga

The calamari is plentiful and delicious! The spinach salad is a little plain but very healthy. And the pasta dishes are great.

It’s alright. I personally think the lunches here are better - service is friendlier and the sandwiches are better than the pastas. Also the restaurant is always very clean, which I appreciate. The dinner service tonight was god awful! Our server was so rude (we got the bald guy) he seems like he hates his job - doesn’t smile, he’s kinda pushy, no patience. Additionally the free bread was super stale! Why would you serve your paying customers warm stale bread, that’s just shady. The pasta here is awful - I ordered a cannelloni, I took one bite, sent it back and requested it be taken off my bill. Yes, it was that bad. It’s not a traditional cannelloni at all, a traditional cannelloni is supposed to be a stuffed pasta, this was not stuffed. Just rolled up pasta topped with HELLA cheese (seriously wayyy too much cheese), and a few pieces of mushrooms sprinkled in, the menu said there would be veal in there but no veal. In summation lunch - yes, dinner - no; and someone please talk to the bald guy about his customer service .

What a surprising treat. We try and support local businesses as much as we can so we decided to try Ristorante Amoroma. We arrived at 6:15 on Saturday and were immediately seated by a charming host. The food was delicious and the service fantastic, for a reasonable price. We paid $76 for 2 cocktails, 1 appetizer and 2 entrees. The only reason I didn't give this restaurant 5 stars was not due to the restaurant but to the couple bringing a screaming toddler to a cozy dining establishment where it was clear couples appeared to be having "date night" or at the least an intimate dinner night out. This place is a must try but not for young children/babies in such close quarters. Lastly, a bonus, they offer a lovely brunch on Sundays. I am looking forward to trying out their brunch offerings.

Great staff and good food Cannot wait to go back

I came here with my husband for a good Italian food (so we thought). We ordered a salad to share and we each had a pasta dish. I had the fresh fettuccine with seafood. My fettuccine noodles came waaaay undercooked. I asked the server if they could make me a new one because it just didn’t taste well...my server insisted that the noodles were cooked “al dente”, but trust me I know and can tell the difference between al dente and undercooked pasta noodles. She, the server took my plate and I’ve waited for 15-20 minutes (to be exact) for my new seafood pasta. OMG, to my surprise, they didn’t make me a new dish, they literally put my dish in a microwave and just heated it!!!! I could tell that’s exactly what they did because I had half eaten a shrimp and calamari from the old dish I had originally and they’re back on what’s supposedly my newly made pasta fettuccine with seafood!! And what’s worse was that my dish tasted nothing like how it was originally. I seriously felt like eating a chef boyardee straight out of the can food! I mean look at the photo! I told the server about it all she coulda ay was “I’m so sorry” oh and btw, here’s your check! I don’t think I can ever go back to this place.

My husband and I just moved from Berkeley to Orinda and were hoping to find a good Italian restaurant nearby. We had a wonderful meal at the gem of a restaurant and it was so nice to not have to deal with the parking issues and crowds on the other side of the tunnel. The service was excellent, the food was very well prepared and the prices for food and drinks were reasonable. We highly recommend this place.

I’ve been coming here for years and you would think that maybe once, just once they’d screw up and provide bad service or food, but no, these guys are the best every single time. As usual, I always get chicken piccata and I love it every single time. I higher recommend this place, you’ll be a regular just like me

The Fettuccini and Sausage Special was delicious! The very best Itallian food! Thank goodness we can still pick up food there plus they deliver. They are all so welcoming there....
