Review Summary

Amato stands out for exceptional Italian cuisine that is delicious and customizable, a private wine cellar that impresses, and a warm, welcoming atmosphere that feels like dining in a cozy ancestral home. Guests describe friendly, attentive service and a lively, inviting vibe, with a terrace that is one of the region's highlights for summer evenings. Dishes ranging from shrimp with mustard to grilled calamari, beef cheek and veal cutlet with lemon are repeatedly praised for quality and flavor, and portions are generous. The experience is consistently described as refined yet comfortable, making it well suited for anniversaries and any special occasion. The staff and owner are noted for going the extra mile to ensure a memorable visit, and the overall value is viewed positively alongside the high quality of the food and wine list. Amato is frequently recommended for conversations and good company in a refined but cozy setting.

First time visit. My wife & I really enjoyed the experience. The food we ordered was exceptionally good. So we're the appetizers. I had the fillet mignon & my wife the seafood linguine. It was an amazing experience for both of us. We will definitely be going back.

Entrée, plat, dessert , tout fut excellent. Le tiramisu fait maison était divin.
Le seul petit bémol : on aurait aimé goûter le vin commandé. Sinon tout était parfait.
On y retournera sûrement.
