I live around the corner from this place and it is AMAZING! The chef is so personable and man can he cook. Everything was cooked to perfection and the service was great. The atmosphere is welcoming and elegant. I am so glad this neighborhood gem is so close to me:)
My favorite place for pasta in the city! The owners are absolutely wonderful. This place has a family feel to it while also being upscale.

Service was great and food was decent.
Portion sizes were smaller then most other upscale Italian restaurants such as Potente, Damian's, etc.
But the flavors were good and definitely worth a try if you're in the area and don't mind tight spaces...

I am very bias because I used to work with Chef Alfredo and I know how talented he is. The food and service are great. We'll definitely be back and by the way, it's BYOB.

New little Italian restaurant in town. Love the intimate ambiance, the service is excellent they make you feel a part of the family right away. We celebrated our anniversary there and it was the best decision. Every plate we had was delicious! Especially the grilled octopus, branzino carpaccio, and the scallop risotto dorato all an explosion of flavors, balance, and culinary experience.

Upper Kirby’s (on Shepherd) newly opened Italian restaurant. Recognised the owner/chef was from Da Marco, no wonder the food quality, dish presentation, and service were excellent. No signage at the door. Contemporary interior ambiance, white themed based. Upscale though not stuck-up. Recommend trying its truffle specialty dishes. Pasta and pizzas are both delicious. Have to come back to try its dinner dishes.

My friend and I showed up without a reservation, Ricky was very honest and said, “you can have a table for 75 minutes, will that be ok?” We weren’t planning to stay long and really wanted to go based on all the reviews. It was wonderful. Ricky and his team provided exceptional service, the pizza was crisp and the flavors in the sauce were fantastic. We started with the potato croquettes and we’re not disappointed with these little bites of heaven. There are only 17 tables, make a reservation. It’s a great new spot with great food.

I'm not sure why people would have a negative comment about the service. Yes, the service industry has been greatly impacted by the pandemic, but Amore did above and beyond on the service aspect. The wine was amazing, the food was beautiful and absolutely tasty. We had the Grilled Octopus, Spaghetti Harry's Bar, the Thanksgiving Duck, a puff/cream dessert with hints of orange, finished off with espresso.
The presentation was gorgeous, everything tasted amazing, and the service was top notch. We highly recommend supporting this beautiful and delicious local restaurant!

Excellent food! OMG! It is Delicious ????
We have not had such a good taste of Italian seafood dishes for so long….
Reasonable priced!!!!
Great service.
The sea bass dish is to die for like to be honest I have never had any other sea bass that tastes like this. The octopus was so well cooked and still juicy and soft I could not believe how they cooked it. The truffles Oh my, I was just in heaven living the dream.
Well done Chef Alfredo! You deserve the best! Congrats on your dream. You have an amazing a team (crew). You can see that the team is happy and motived, I saw them working all night this is the true love story of a restaurant. I can say this that seriously it was absolutely amazing, for us to watch and enjoy every bit of the atmosphere.
Thank you for this great service,
Andrew was our server he was oUtstanding. To hear the story and to see the actual facts with the taste of their delicious dishes… my only advice to you readers could be is to go try and taste their delicious recipes before you cannot make a reservation at their restaurant as They will be fully booked.

I went with a group for their soft opening and could not be more excited for such an amazing restaurant in the neighborhood! Staff was incredibly kind and we loved hearing the restaurants story. Artichoke appetizer was AMAZING, pasta was cooked beautifully, fish was out of this world, and dessert had the perfect amount of sweetness. Can’t wait to go back when they have their full menu available!
