Was Allison Davis at Amici a mag?
My husband and I can't get enough of the meat bolognese pasta dish! It's absolutely amazing—truly to die for. The chef is incredibly talented, and the food consistently impresses. Every penny spent is worth it! This is the best Italian food I've ever had, and the staff is really friendly too. View all feedback.

What Chris Rachel Michael dislikes about Amici:
The prices for this subpar food are outrageous. The entrees were just plain noodles with four shrimp tossed on top—nothing elaborate at all. They even ran out of protein for the second entree. The salads were simply a bit of mixed greens with three cherry tomatoes. The total bill came to $103! Save your time and money; go to Ilario’s instead!

Great food and service. While it was busy the atmosphere was quiet and pleasant. Now serves wine and beer. Will also be taking over the pizza business that is there.

This was my first visit to Amici, and I wanted to see if the rave reviews were justified. I'm here to confirm that they absolutely are. If you don’t drive directly up to the food truck, you might have to take a little adventure walk to reach it, but it’s definitely worth it. The experience was fantastic. We ordered the two most popular entrees, and they did not disappoint. Out of the two, the carbonara was the standout favorite. The salad was exceptionally good, with generous portions and great value for the price. Not to mention, they also provided us with five big pieces of fresh bread! The service was friendly and welcoming. We will definitely be back—what a hidden gem!

Fantastic Italian food in downtown Buda. It’s a good truck run by a husband and wife that have incredible experience in Italian cuisine. The food was incredible, service was 5 star as they came out and talked to us and delivered our food and our desert. A must try in Buda and worth the drive from Austin!! Try the Shrimp pasta Fra diavolo! Was incredible.

From the moment I arrived, I was welcomed with a warm smile and a cheerful greeting. The menu was impressive, featuring a diverse array of traditional Italian dishes that made it challenging to settle on just one selection. I ultimately chose the Spaghetti Carbonara, a classic I had been longing for. The pasta was perfectly cooked, with a creamy and flavorful sauce that struck a wonderful balance between salty and savory. I couldn’t have been more pleased with my choice. My family opted for various dishes, including spaghetti puttanesca, penne vodka, penne bolognese, and a garlic and oil variant. Each dish was prepared with exceptional care and attention to detail, resulting in flavors that were simply exquisite. The pasta was expertly cooked al dente, and the sauces were both rich and authentic. What impressed me most was the authenticity of the meals. Having just returned from Italy, I can confidently say that the dishes at Amici mirrored the incredible flavors I experienced there. The ingredients were fresh, and the cooking techniques were true to traditional Italian methods. Another fantastic aspect of Amici is their BYOB policy. This allows you to bring your favorite wine or beer to complement your meal, enhancing the dining experience even further. In summary, I wholeheartedly recommend Amici to anyone seeking a unique and memorable dining experience. Don’t let the food truck facade fool you; their restaurant-quality dishes will amaze you! With their friendly staff, meticulous attention to detail, and BYOB option, Amici is a must-visit for food enthusiasts and casual diners alike.

Kid-friendliness: It's located right by the park and has games for kids to enjoy near the outdoor seating. Dietary restrictions: They have great options for both gluten-free and vegetarian diets!

We absolutely love the shrimp fra diavolo, Bolognese, and the Greek dishes! They always serve us this incredible fresh, soft bread alongside our pasta. As for parking, it's pretty decent!

The lasagna was absolutely amazing! They even provided us with extra bread and festive decorations as a holiday gift, which was such a lovely gesture. The customer service was outstanding – definitely a 11/10. If you find yourself in Buda, this place is a must-visit!

Amazing food and wonderful service! The cleopatra salad is my favorite goat cheese, candied almonds, and you can’t forget the truffle honey dressing If you add chicken they give you your money’s worth and it’s so fresh and juicy. Highly recommend! Kid friendliness: Right by the park with games for kids too near outside seating Dietary restrictions: Gluten free and vegetarian options are great! Service: Dine in

They catered our wedding and were, without a doubt, the easiest and best vendor I worked with. We had several guests with serious dietary restrictions, and they absolutely loved the meal. The service was fantastic, and communication was excellent throughout the entire process. I truly cannot recommend them highly enough!

I can?t say enough about this place! I?m a huge fan of mozzarella sticks and these are like butter! I also tried the Branzino Piccata and tiramisu for the first time and it was so delicious! If you?re in the area you have to come check this place out!It?s women owned! Elpida is amazing and has a very welcoming spirit as if you?ve known her forever.

Amazing 5-star experience on a trip to Austin. Just south in the small town of Buda, which is super charming, we found Amici. Glad we did. Owned by a husband and wife from New York, who Amici is producing fantastic legit Italian food from a food truck ina charming spot under huge oak trees. We had the Chicken Parmesan, shrimp fra diavolo, ceaser salad and tiramisu for dessert.All were incredible! Came with bread and oil and and charming conversation with the owners. BYOB if your eating there as noalcohol is sold on site. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

I've been in a restaurant business since I was 16. I've seen restaurants treat people in a really bad way customers and employees. If you refuse to serve a customer 10 minutes before you close and you have a pattern of doing this it will not lookgood for your future. It will definitely hurt your chances of having a brick and mortar. I was trying to deliver for a customerand you guys answered the phone and told me it was okay to call back and place the order once I got a substitution. I wasliterally around the corner. You told me you were closed and you started closing everything up. That is a pet peeve a lot ofcustomers have when they go to a restaurant if that happens to them they will probably never come back. I will not be comingback to even deliver. My Reply: I was literally on Robert S. Black and Main Street when I called at 8:48 p.m. on a Fridaynight which is the money maker bread and butter night of the week for any restaurant. I arrived there at 8:52 and it was 4minutes later. The very friendly young lady that picked up when I mentioned it was for a GrubHub should have told me that theyou stopped taking orders. This was a order and pay order. Anyways it's the past. No I won't change the rating.
