Gorgeous apothecary-themed space. Super knowledgeable/welcoming/friendly bartenders. Expertly-crafted cocktails. We especially enjoyed the carefully selected tasting flight.

What an absolutely special spot. If you didn't like bitters before, you will now. The classic 8 Amaro Sazerac was so smooth and the new seasonal Double Down was pleasantly earthy. The staff is the best, so kind and friendly. Seats at the bar will eventually clear up as the night progresses but you may have to stand around for a bit.

great vibes. strong drinks. just a great night. come here any time and they will fit you in. standing around a table type vibe but it works well to meet new people! great energy on a friday or saturday especially. we got 2 of the seasonal: the one with lemon essence and the other with dark chocolate notes. the dark chocolate one was amazing. please get it if you go fall 2024. i would come back here 100%. go if you like spirit forward drinks.

Incredible cocktail bar, one of the truly unique bars in the city. Very unpretentious, and explores the depth of Italian Amari. Reasonably priced. Even though all the drinks stick to one major theme, there is incredible variety among the drinks.

This is just the bar for me! I'm partial to spirit-forward, bitter cocktails, and Amor Y Amargo has an astounding diversity of amaro and other specialty liquors: their menu changes each season, but they also have classic cocktails for all tastes. It gets quite crowded and seating space is limited. Prices are a bit lower than at other high-end cocktail bars. Service could be improved.

Corner bar at an intersection with wide windows where you can people watch while enjoying your drink. Italian inspired bar, you might not find your favorite cocktail here l, for example, they don't have Vodka. Read their menu in advance. Friendly staff, the bartender is very knowledgeable and service was super fast. Mature crowed, lovely jazz music at back ground

Really good drinks and cozy spot. There's only room for like 10 people to stand and drink. Put off by bartender/owner. He made a face and comment because our tip was too low. 15 dollars for 4 drinks while we stand. Lol tipping culture just out of hand.

No doubt about it, the ambiance of this place is unique and charming. Overall incredible atmosphere. And best amaro selection I have ever seen. Bartender was a bit put off by questions, it appeared and came off as pompous and arrogant, but he was very knowledgeable and had a certain je-ne-sais-quoi to him.

It's a space I've been visiting for over a decade, with many friends and out-of-towners for this truly awesome and unique bar. The decor is beautiful and they offer something you can find almost nowhere else. But why put forth a display of 100 bottles of specialty liquor and then service them with a bartender that is so thoroughly unpleasant and arrogant? I come to this place because I am fascinated by the selection and love to talk about it -- I bought the god damn book -- but this dude (not the author) seems almost repulsed that I'd ask questions. That I'd inquire about one of the ingredients he is mixing into my drink right in front of my face. Although mixing is an overstatement at Amor these days: every single cocktail we watched him make was premixed. Pour it in the glass, slice of lemon, that'll be $18. And lets be honest, it's no secret that despite the incredible sounding descriptions and wild mixes of ingredients, nearly every cocktail at this place ends up tasting the same. Bitter with a little of this, bitter with a little of that. It's great when you have a bartender that likes to engage with you and talk to you about the history and origin of the drinks. Instead I got a bartender that handed me an ipad at checkout that had an $18 tip preselected for 4 drinks that he poured from a glass bottle over ice.

I have been going for about a decade? I would say about 10.1/10 times the bartender is in a bad mood and you will know about. I was ok with it when I wanted to try a new amaro. I have witnessed for years if you ask any question they will respond in a shitty way. For many years when the bartenders responded shitty i would make a straightforward suggestion to the patron asking, like try a spritz to see if you like it. The bartender with a braided goatee (go figure, right) pushed it too far tonight. I asked a question and he was unnecessarily a jerk about it. He doesn’t know anything. This place sucks. The bartenders suck. Don’t got here. Go somewhere else. A woman asked for a sober drink tonight and they said we have absolutely nothing and then served two bartenders a topo Chico about an hour later no problem at all.
