"What a charming restaurant! In Baltimore's Little Italy section of the city, this restaurant serves vibrant and traditional Italian cuisine with great service and a homelike environment. There are several dining rooms which keeps the ambience quieter and more personal, which is a welcome change from loud establishments. The food was so well made with lots of care and the bold flavors were simply amazing 😋. Our server was welcoming, the whole restaurant is very clean and they have a full bar if you're looking to have cocktails while waiting for your table. We had no wait for lunch on a Sunday, but I would expect to wait or need reservations during evening dinner hours. You can also eat outside when the weather permits. Enjoy!"

"Amicci's was a great experience. My friend and I went for an early dinner. We got a great seat by the window. There are multiple dining areas, and I found ours to be very quaint and inviting. We got a burrata appetizer, and it was great. Service was good. Pasta was perfectly cooked. Flavors were great. Prices were reasonable.

The only reason for the 4 stars is the fact that no bread is served with dinner. What kind of Italian meal is served without bread and olive oil for sopping up the sauces? I would rather that they raise their prices a few dollars and don't be so cheap with the accompaniments. When did we get to the point where restaurants only serve "pieces" of meals? It is not an immersive experience when you have to piece things together like a self- service place."

"I want to start by saying my reasons for giving this establishment the rating that I did. The food was amazing. The presentation of each plate was attractive, and the flavor and amount of food was to die for. The environment was cozy, beautiful and warming. When making and communicating our reservation needs over several phone conversations with the host it was nothing but pleasant. We were a large group, which I believe, made it difficult for the waiter to provide outstanding service, We were not irate nor drunk, nor impatient, just a group of women looking to receive a fine dining experience.

However, the experience was not quite the way we had expected. It is my opinion that the waiter was new or had no experience servicing a large party. Although he was nice enough to break the bills down into four groups he was not capable getting the correct meals grouped together after three attempts. We literally had to write out the groups of meals to assist.

Two members of our group ordered the same meal that did not display that it was spicy, and upon inquiring about it and one particular individual wanted to have it the meal taken off the bill and replace with another meal. The request was denied, and we had to pay for the meal and the replacement meal. The manager refused to take the meal off the bill; I decided to relieve the individual of stress and paying for a meal that she would pay for and not eat, so I offered to pay for it with the conditions that I could take it to go. A new meal was received and according to the group member it was delicious and to her satisfaction, which made me happy.

When receiving the bill both meals were on the receipt, but I had to ask the waiter three times where is my meal to go since I paid for it? When they packaged the meal, because of the amount of food, which was great, they packed it all in two small containers that were overflowing with juice from the meal. By the time I got back to my destination, the bag was soiled with liquid, it ripped and the favorable bowl juice was everywhere, including on me. I was disappointed in this part of our experience. However, because of all the things mentioned in the beginning of this post, I would return again but now I know what to expect. I decided to give this restaurant a review because I want to let you know what you could expect and how to prepare for it. This experience will not stop me from returning again because the majority of my experience was pleasant, and again, the food was amazing; I recommend you give them a try on the food and environment alone. And hopefully you will have a better waiter who can handle a big group. I do want to add that he was trying his best was not rude and kept apologizing. Kudos to him for that.

We kinda of felt sorry for the waiter/waitress, which is why we offered to help sort out the bills correctly. This was kind of frustrating however, keep in mind each bill included the 20% tip. Honestly, we would’ve given additional tip had the services and the manager’s decision were different.

Amicci’s of Little Italy is a very fine establishment; I recommend the manager reconsider there policy on meal returns or have the waiter/waitress or menu clearly reveal to the customers which meals are spicy, especially with a large group."
