Amore - O'Fallon
Amore
Description
Owners Mark Schott, Tom Wann, and Susan Mancia Wann collectively have over 75 years of experience in the restaurant industry. They have curated authentic old family recipes from their Italian heritage, including the Piancentino family from Northern Italy, the Mancia family from Perugia, and the Miceli family from Sicily. Their pizzas and sandwiches are inspired by the traditional Italian street food that Susan enjoyed growing up on the New Jersey Shore Boardwalks. Made from fresh dough, hand-tossed, and topped with a special pizza sauce and unique cheese blend, their pizzas pay homage to the original "Tomato Pies" brought by Italian immigrants to the East Coast. Through a combination of authentic Italian recipes, decor, and music, the owners aspire to offer guests a truly immersive Italian dining experience, reminiscent of the 1960s ambiance enjoyed by icons like Dean Martin and Frank Sinatra. Additionally, patrons can enjoy the playful addition of Fedora Style "Gangster" hats and two life-size cut-outs of Frank and Dean, providing the perfect photo opportunity during their visit.

I had a fantastic experience at the lunch buffet! The pizza was excellent, and the service was both friendly and helpful. The Italian ambiance was delightful, and the meal was very affordable. I will definitely be returning!
This is a lovely venue for gathering with friends and family or even for a solo meal. The food was expertly prepared, the prices were reasonable, and there was plenty of parking available. The staff were exceptional!
Huge pizzas and delicious wings!
