Reviews for Amici Trattoria Shrewsbury in Shrewsbury, MA
Delicious food! So good my wife and I had to share our dishes. Great personal service. The atmosphere was lively but very... comfortable for our private date night conversation. We'll be back again for sure! Read more
First time trying this restaurant- ordered a specialty pizza, appetizer, sandwich and dessert. We had to take out due to... driving home (over an hour home)- we started eating on the drive and realized they gave us the wrong pizza- I called and theyasked if we wanted a new one..we were already headed home and I wasn?t waiting another 40+mins for a pizza like we did for thisone. The hostess spoke with the manager and they decided to refund only the money we paid for the toppings we didn?t get-nickel and fined us for sure- any other place we go to on a regular basis would have just refunded the whole pizza since it wastheir error and NOT at all what we ordered. The panini sandwich was good- their bread is tasty. The long wait we had for ourfood (20+ minutes after our quoted pick up time) was a bit annoying- but I have been giving restaurants passes on this due tostaff shortage- but they should really update their online ordering times so it?s more accurate. For the price we paid for ourmeal I was hoping for more (accuracy and better customer service). Read more
Always great food and service. Restaurant week menu was a nice surprise when we arrived. I strayed from my normal choice to try... the steak tips which were perfectly cooked and tasted great. Arugula gorgonzola salad and a chocolate chip canoli were alsodelicious. I guess I forgot to get a picture of the entree, but it was great. Read more
The 4-star review represents the overall experience and the room for growth. Service was delightful and easy-going. I had two... dishes: the wild arugula salad and gnocchi d?Abruzzi. I liked the fact that the salad is served at the same time with the pasta(quite Italian of them). The salad had everything you needed for a good salad ? freshness of the vegetable (arugula), crunchypecans, sweet dried berries, salty Gorgonzola. Simple things with various textures make a great salad. The gnocchi dish howeverwas unfortunately subpar. Gnocchi was overcooked ? gooey and no longer fluffy. While I appreciate the portion on the veal,mushroom, and the sufficient garnish such as sun dried tomatoes, I cannot fathom the finesse on the artichokes. They were toughand too big for a bite size. Their salty tastes (can?t seem to be fresh but more likely canned but understandable as it?s notartichoke season) have contributed to the overall overwhelming saltiness of the dish. It becomes off-putting after three bites.My suggestion is to cut the artichoke into bite size and fully rinse before reducing them together with the sauce. This dish hasso much potential. I look forward to coming back to taste this very dish again. Read more
Food was delicious. Staff was friendly and welcoming. Cost was reasonable. My only minor issues are the restaurant is quite... small and the lighting was such in that I needed to us my cell phone flash light to read the menu. I will definitely return. Read more
This is a great Italian restaurant! Pleasantly surprised by this place which has a generous menu at a very reasonable price... point expected for a place of this kind. The calamari, Salmon risotto and Buffalo pizza were exquisite. Read more
Every thing is awesome here. Alex, our host, was amazing. Food is great. Fresh baked panini with olive oil and roasted garlic... was heaven. Buffalo chicken pizza was fantastic. Risotto with zafron was rich with flavor. Panini with chicken and broccoli withcreamy garlic sauce was so good too. Will come again for sure. Read more
Very nice restaurant, great atmosphere and food. Service is great, portions are large. It is more on the expensive side, but... well worth it. Parking isn?t too difficult to figure out ? you can just park at the old Beal school down the road and walk. Read more
