Reviews for Ristorante Amoroma in Moraga, CA
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 wasso rude (we got the bald guy) he seems like he hates his job - doesn’t smile, he’s kinda pushy, no patience. Additionallythe free bread was super stale! Why would you serve your paying customers warm stale bread, that’s just shady. The pasta hereis 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, themenu said there would be veal in there but no veal. In summation lunch - yes, dinner - no; and someone please talk to the baldguy about his customer service . Read more
Great staff and good food Cannot wait to go back
The calamari is plentiful and delicious! The spinach salad is a little plain but very healthy. And the pasta dishes are great.
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 otherside of the tunnel. The service was excellent, the food was very well prepared and the prices for food and drinks werereasonable. We highly recommend this place. Read more
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 Read more
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 anew one because it just didn’t taste well...my server insisted that the noodles were cooked “al dente”, but trust me Iknow and can tell the difference between al dente and undercooked pasta noodles. She, the server took my plate and I’ve waitedfor 15-20 minutes (to be exact) for my new seafood pasta. OMG, to my surprise, they didn’t make me a new dish, they literallyput my dish in a microwave and just heated it!!!! I could tell that’s exactly what they did because I had half eaten a shrimpand calamari from the old dish I had originally and they’re back on what’s supposedly my newly made pasta fettuccine withseafood!! And what’s worse was that my dish tasted nothing like how it was originally. I seriously felt like eating a chefboyardee 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 sosorry” oh and btw, here’s your check! I don’t think I can ever go back to this place. Read more
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 5stars was not due to the restaurant but to the couple bringing a screaming toddler to a cozy dining establishment where it wasclear couples appeared to be having "date night" or at the least an intimate dinner night out. This place is a must try but notfor young children/babies in such close quarters. Lastly, a bonus, they offer a lovely brunch on Sundays. I am looking forwardto trying out their brunch offerings.

The food is worth the long wait. This is a very relaxing place to eat. Don't go here if your in a rush. The server is very nice... but they need more staff. Be patient enjoy.. They have a nice outdoor dining area with heaters. Enjoy the Tiramisu. Read more
