   Meh. If you like over salted food, soggy pizza, and canned marina sauces this is the place for you. They said their kitchen staff was in training by staff who were just out of training. After they comped the two pizzas the bill was still $100 for parents +1 child. We couldn’t wait to leave when the manager blocked our way out the door to pitch us on the club downstairs with live music when we were having a family meal with a child in tow.

   The place seems mismanaged and unable to find its identity. Start with drinks; martinis were 1/2 full. Calamari came after 50 minutes and bowl was 1/2 full(4 people & we each got 4 pieces. Good tasting but 4 pieces?) the entrees were more of the same. Chicken Parmesan had a can of tomato sauce dumped over it. They seemed to be extremely understaffed. Went to their basement club after to hear live music (this was last Saturday). The place was fairly full & while we were able to find a nice place to sit, we had to go to bar to get drinks. They had 3 bartenders & finally got a 3rd from upstairs. 15 minutes of standing at the bar we had our drinks. Sat down, no music! Huh? We left. Last night we went to Asian fusion restaurant around the corner, Leilani. They have a basement social club attached also. Club room is only open on weekends but it looked fantastic. The food & service was incredible. Amore Mio could take some tutoring from Leilani

   We reserved our.. table showed up 10 minutes early.. they had no table for us and still had parties with reservations 30 minutes prior waiting. We were offered a small table with 1 chairs 1 window seat bench.. we tried. It was busy and loud but pretty. After we were seated the waitress took our drink (2 soft drinks) and appetizers order and never came back. We waited 18 minutes with nothing so we left. Cannot speak to the food because we never had any. Sorry but this was a terrible experience.

   Always try something new as we continue to explore the tastes of Italy. Flavorful and interesting. Today we had the crab cakes appetizer and salmon as our entree. Both were a pleasure to our palate. Have not experimented much with the bar but we tend to be set in our cocktail preferences even though they have a few that have caught our eye. Highly recommend. If you enjoy their Altiro restaurants this will let you continue to enjoy their inspired cuisine but with the Italian flair.

   We went before a performance at the Paramount. The food is a slightly different spin on Italian and it was very good. The portions were more that satisfying. Staff was attentive and friendly. Lovely atmosphere. Perfect place for a date night.

    We made reservations for 4:00 pm on Open Table. Arrived at 3:50 but there was no one inside and door was locked. We waited until 4:10 pm then walked to a nearby restaurant. After dinner we walked passed Amore Mio about 6:30 pm and saw that it had patrons and was serving food. After arriving home, rechecked Amore’s website and saw that they open at 5:00. Looks like Open Table had wrong information about available reservations. We will try again as this is a recent opening and want to try their menu.
