Frequently asked questions about Amici Italian Grill
Amici Italian Grill Middletown Reviews
I was very pleased with my recent visit to Amici. The food was excellent! First our kind waitress brought beverages and fresh bread. My Shirley Temple was impressive and the bread was crisp and delicious! Next we were given salads which were very fresh! Quickly we were given our meals which were out of this world! The prices are reasonable especially considering the large portions and amazing taste. The only reason I gave the atmosphere 3 stars is because the theme was very inconsistent and odd in my opinion but very clean. I highly recommend this restaurant!
Gluten free chicken Christine. The lemony sauce was delicious. Brought half of it home. Service was so so. Not enough of staff for the day. The price was very doable.
Our waitress was excellent! Super friendly and attentive, answered all our questions, and she was taking plates as we went so the table never filled up. Our food came out fast and we loved everything! We had the stuffed mushrooms, the eggplant parm panini, and the penne amici. It was all delicious. The waitress even refilled my drink without me having to ask. The bread was so good but the real star of the show was the olive oil! It was so good I had to ask the waitress what brand they used. I wanted to take the bottle home! ( I didn’t lol). The prices weren’t bad. There was a good range from 13-20+ so really not bad for 2025. I’d love to come back and try more of their menu.
We held our baby shower here at Amici Italian Grill in November 2024 after talking to many different restaurants, breweries, and other venues in CT. Our hostess and planner extraordinaire, Alyssa, was beyond accommodating and helpful in adapting the space and experience to our requests. The food was delicious and the service warm, welcoming, and all around superb. If you’re looking to book a private event with great food, ambiance, and at a fraction of a cost of the competition, you will not be disappointed with Alyssa and the whole team at Amici.
My boss took us all for a belated Christmas dinner. I had never been before. My girlfriend and I split the 2 meatball (softball size) appetizer. She had the broccoli Alfredo w tortellini and I had the garlic, rosemary pan seared new york strip. Everything from beginning to end was absolutely delicious! The cook on the steak (med rare) was spot on. We had a couple of cocktails and they were also made perfectly. I would recommend Amici Italian grill to anyone who wants a great dining experience. Unfortunately I cannot remember our servers name but she was so attentive and refilled water and drinks without ever asking once. She asked us. The prices were also very fair. Even though I did not pay, I noticed! We've all been having about our meals for 3 days since. Thank you to everyone at Amici Italian grill! We'll be back for sure!
Great food and atmosphere. I got the chicken salad and added avocado to it (2.50 upcharge). The chicken was fresh, but I will say I wish the salad was tossed since the toppings were just sitting on top of the leafy greens. My grandmother got the Caesar with salmon and she had no complaints. Our waiter was hilarious too. Will come back.
Definitely 5 star dining and one of Middletown finest establishment. Service is amazing and people are super friendly. Now the food, on another level. My steak was cook perfect with so much season and flavor. Drinks were amazing. Couldn’t be happier knowing this amazing place is right in our hometown
A nice pretty Italian fine dining place-food is delicious and in big portions. Servers r nice n polite!! Drinks are pretty good.. price wise i would say it’s on the higher end but if u r looking for a nice quite dinner in Middletown downtown- this can b ur pick .. when I went they were still working on their interiors- we were told by the servers that they were renovating .. I will visit again for sure !!
Overall, Amici provides a wonderful experience on all categories. The atmosphere inside is wonderful and there is a great ambiance. When you sit they give you some bread, nothing special but a nice touch. The servings on the entrees were big and each entree comes with a side salad. We tried 3 entrees all were good but nothing incredible. I would definitely recommend this place. I think it provides one of best experiences and food out of the Italian restaurants on main street. Would be great for date night.
Finally able to go out with my husband for a nice dinner. Amici’s has been great in the past, fair prices, good food and good service. Last night we were told the wait would be 20 mins. We figured they were short staffed since the dining room was not even half full. We waited at the bar and had a couple drinks. Bartender was nice, but they were out of clean martini glasses and My husband ordered 2 beers and both times they were not what he ordered. Not to mention my espresso martini was $15!!!! Not long after, Another couple came and sat down next to us. After at least a half hour, I asked my husband to check in with the hostess only to find out they seated that couple who came in later than us. The Hostess said Im sorry they were at the bar and my husband replied so were we! We decided to bail on this once nice establishment. How disappointing!
I used to be a regular for many years, but after what I experienced on September 26th, I will never go to them again because of terrible service. I placed an order for my entire family for pick up and when I got home, I was missing a meal. I called back and they said they would refund me. A week goes by and I get no refund so I call back. They say they will refund me but now it’s been over two weeks and they still haven’t refunded me. They can keep that money because I’m posting this review and warning others of their bad service
I’m so sad. Amici’s used to be amazing. I honestly have no idea how it’s still in business. There were flies circulating around our stale bread. The chicken Milanese I had was over cooked and not edible. You couldn’t even cut it and the breading came right off, there was no egg wash! No seasoning, not even garlic! The bread was stale and tasted funny, they definitely didn’t know how to make the drink I ordered. My friends got food that was inedible as well. The sauce tasted spoiled. I genuinely hate leaving bad reviews, but on top we were ignored! We watched the waiter check on and help everyone else and keep passing us by. It was not crowded. It’s been about 4 years since I’ve been, what a bummer! 😞
