Food is good. Not superb, but definitely great food. The pasta is a little overpriced for what you get, but they make a good cheap attempt to glorify italian food. What I mean by this is that the presentation is done really well, including home-made bread and roasted garlic in olive oil; and fancy pasta dishes. When it boils down to it though, there really isnt anything inventive here, its all just presentation. Regardless, it is tasty. HOWEVER, and this is a big however: you cant have a conversation here, It is a VERY small place and they pack you in like sardines. It gets VERY loud. So loud in fact, that I couldnt have a conversation with my dining partners. I just had to sit and stare around and be amazed at just how loud this place is. Despite how good the food is, I will not be returning as there is no point to dining in such noise. If I cant have a conversation with whom I am dining, or if I have to scream to be heard, there is no point to it.

Amicis Trattoria is our favorite neighborhood restaurant and we frequent the restaurant almost weekly. The food is exceptional and the wait staff and bar tenders are great. We walk in and they know our favorite drinks and food. Our only bad experiences have been with a woman named Jasmine. She is a manager I believe and needs to be trained on customer service. We have had three terrible experiences with this individual. After our last experience, we actually thought about not returning to the restaurant, but felt it was not fair to the great people who work there besides Jasmine. If this establishment wants to keep its loyal customers, I would recommend sending Jasmine to customer service training.

Nice local hang out with good food. I love their Caesar salads, portobello mushroom tower and chicken Parmesan. My husband has their chicken piccata every time and says its consistently good. The bar is always popular with locals, nice wine list and excellent cocktails. The atmosphere is vibrant, sometimes fringes on loud. Dont miss their pizza- thin crust and excellent. Have I mentioned their warm bread and garlic dipping sauce? This alone will bring you back every time. Parking can sometimes seem like a hassle, but just keep driving around the block and I absolutely promise you something will open up!

This used to be a five * review. Im updating it today, April 2016. Amici has been my favorite Italian restaurant for years. Ive recommended it to plenty, and returned time and again. I used to look forward to Worcester Restaurant week just so I could go and see what they had created. Sadly, over the past year or so, theyve evolved into a restaurant that has lost touch with its charm, its culinary quality, and most of all, its service. The final straw came for me last week. I walked out even before we ordered. Unfortunately, I wont be going back.

worst experience ever. Our waitress served our drinks and wandered off for 30 minutes before we had to go find her to take our appetizer order. It took 45 minutes for our cold appetizers to arrive. We ordered our entrées and waited another 45 minutes for our bland cold meal to arrive. Never mind seeing the waitress again, we tried finding her one more time to try to get another drink, she took our orders and never brought the drinks but made sure they were on the bill

Was the worst pizza. Got thin crust. Big mistake because the crust separated. Bottom portion split off the heavier top so when you ate it you had a plate full of brown flakes. Cant believe all the rave reviews. Standard must be very low in Shrewsbury. Restaurant extremely noisy and our waitress a bit snappy. She refused to give us bread and oil because we still had our menus and they may get dirty? Im recommending Shrewsbury Street over local.

Went to Amici for the first time today for breakfast because we wanted to try something new and local. Immediately upon walking in the maitre d did not greet us but our waitress came over to seat us. The food was good and bar was adequately stocked but the initial greeting sets the stage and it ended the same way we came in, no thank you for coming or see you soon. Just dead silence. So we werent welcomed and we wont be back.

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 with creamy garlic sauce was so good too. Will come again for sure.

No reservations taken, but we were seated immediately on a recent Friday night. Service was excellent, all entries were fresh & delicious. Portions were generous. We will surely be back.

We had a date night on Saturday here. The food was phenomenal. Everything we tried was delicious, including their home made cannoli. Prices are reasonable for the quality of food too.

Good food, reasonable prices, often full, has character and comfort, seems to have local teanagers (family?) cooking and running things. Have had many good meals there.

Great place - tiny little bar - excellent large servings, be prepared to take some home. Get there early on Thursday or Friday, is a favorite for the locals.

DELISH! Pretty pricey but if you want top notch pizza and calzones it is worth the money.
