    The server was very attentive, making our experience pleasant. While the prices for the fish entrees were high, we opted for the chicken piccata, which was not as tender as we had expected. The pasta seemed a bit rubbery and didn't appear to be homemade. However, the rolls were excellent, as was the bruschetta.

    As usual we loved the music and food. Wine by the glass was overpriced for the quantity in my glass

    Our server was amazing and patient - even with our four kids for Mother’s Day! Food was more than excellent. I couldn’t recommend this more. Truly the best Italian in Bham!

    Top to bottom, an excellent experience. Food was fantastic from the appetizers to the entrees and service was top notch. The value received compared to similar locations was without compare. This place is a can’t miss opportunity.

    Tonya and Steven made it a wonderful experience for me and my wife as we celebrated my wife’s 65th birthday. It had been quite some time since we’ve been in but I can share without hesitation Amoré is the best restaurant in Birmingham.

    From start to finish, a great place -- most Italian restaurants have large portions to hide average food. Amore portions were large, but the amazing, well above most globally! When in Birmingham find Highway 280, it's worth the drive!!

    I took my wife here on a date tonight and we loved it. Last time we were here was our Prom night during high school a couple years ago. It’s the perfect place for any special occasion.
