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.

Beautiful garden ambience. Professional & friendly staff. Delicious food. We had the privilege of dining underneath the gazebo which is cozy & private & heated too for those cool nights. It was a pleasant experience & would return anytime.

Superb evening, great food, great service! We sat out on the patio & had the best experience. First time out to a restaurant since the pandemic started & it was better than expected. We'll be back soon.

Restaurant romantique à souhait à l'italienne comme ils savent aussi bien faire. Personnel attentionné, nourriture excellente sans exception & que de bonnes bouteille pour les vrais connaisseurs de vino! Pour un tête à tête ou entre amis, vous serez comblé & vous ne resterez pas sur votre appétit! Je recommande la Burrata en entré. Une vrai. Ils ont des tables extérieur avec jardin pour ceux qui désirent manger à l'extérieur. Je vous recommande la joue de veau. Belle grosse pièce qui se défait à la fourchette. Nous allons y retourner assurément!

Accueil, service & nouriture excellente. Peut-être qu'il y en a qui trouve cela dispendieux, la qualité a un prix. Nous avons passés une très belle soirée. Merci à toute l'équipe.
