Amore Italian Lounge - St Roch

The primary reason we went was for the $1 Wednesday night oyster special. They were definitely unprepared from a staffing perspective for the amount of people that made reservations and walked in. There was at least a 25 minute wait for the oysters. When served they did not come with cocktail sauce and horseradish I had to ask for it. The oysters were delicious though Chesapeake Bay. The bread and salads prior to the main course were delicious although wish that our server had told us there was a smaller option for the salads when we ordered. They were huge! We also ordered the Bolognese it was OK. Nothing stellar. We shared a Tiramisu for dessert it was delicious. There was also a wine special which was great helped to alleviate the time lag for the oysters. I wouldn't take away from the staff trying to keep up they were definitely hustling but you could tell it was chaos. One couple left when they found out how long the wait was for the oysters. Would we go again? Probably but it won't be at the top of the list. Wegmans used to have a restaurant called Next Door connected to the Pittsford Wegmans now that was stellar!

We waited almost 15 minutes before being acknowledged at the hostess station. Our server was trying to staff the bar and 4 high top tables all at the same time and didn't offer or explain any specials. We ordered a pizza and a dozen oysters and it took over an hour for the oysters to come out. The pizza came out and the crust was mushy like it had been sitting around. Overall, our experience for a simple, weeknight date night was disappointing.

We hosted two former students. Their first experience at Amore. Both were so impressed by the service, the food, and the ambiance. We are so grateful for Nikia, Sam, Andrew, Claudia, Pasquale, Kendall, Jordyn, and the entire crew!

Dinner for three. My wife and sister-in-law had drinks at the bar. The girls don't drink and I had Amore's Italian Old Fashioned, which was great. We moved to the dining room for Fried Calamari with Spicy Calabrian chili pepper dressing, 2 Chicken Cutlet orders and a pizza special with 3 cheeses, prosciutto and arugula. Wonderful location and ambience of NYC. Very underrated restaurant.

Everything was amazing! We started with the Lobster Bruschetta and it was absolutely delicious! We then shared the Chicken Cutlet with Misticanza and the Casarecce with Crab and Lemon Cream Sauce. Both were good sized portions and also very delicious. The service was outstanding! We will be back.
