“ Nice moody restaurant with fantastic service. My rissotto was perfect and I got the feeling that the chef is a dessert chef based on our brownie that came out. Delish ”
“ Came here for my birthday evening, had a lovely time. It was a beautiful atmosphere, with really tasty food and good cocktails. My order was the carbonara, lamb pizza and a key lime pie cocktail. Would highly recommend! Thanks again to the team. Special shout out to Lee who served our table xxxx ”
“ Cosy and beautiful restaurant. Great atmosphere. The food was amazing and so delicious. The service was outstanding - the best I have ever experienced. It was very busy when we visited and we didn't have a reservation but we were given a very comfortable booth to sit and wait, the opportunity to order drinks and entree and the staff made sure we were well looked after. It didn't take long to get a table either. Highly recommend We will definitely visit again! ”
“ Absolutely amazing can’t fault this place at all. Thanks for an amazing night. Beautiful place for birthday etc. Our lovely waiter Nikki was professional with a wonderful sense of humour. Extended thanks to all waitresses as well! Food was to die for. ”

“ I just want to express my admiration for this restaurant – it truly amazed me. The waitstaff were friendly and respectful, the restaurant itself was comfortable, and the atmosphere was so pleasant. Now I have to mention how incredible my meal was – absolutely delicious, juicy, and honestly one of the best dishes I’ve had in Australia. The trip from Brisbane to Amici Restaurant was more than worth it. We’re already looking forward to coming back! ”
“ Thankyou to the lovely staff member who fixed a custom drink and made it perfect the sauce with the steak is perfection theres nothing like it anywhere else and I'd encourage others to give it a try you won't be disappointed. The Italian in me for whatever reason didn't feel not like steak for the choice when going to such a lovely Italian restaurant so while away, I got a taste of it though and had to come back a few night later and my friend and I both ordered it it was that good. They got their perfect cocktail again, and I had the most delicious house cocktail. Thankyou it's was all delicious and perfect. All of the food was amazing, but that steak and sauce All of the staff were perfect level of kind and courteous with attention to detail and making sure everything ok while being helpful. As an ambulatory wheelchair user who uses a powerchair, it is often a nightmare going one for meals. I never know how staff will react to needing to make room for a large power chair and it "being in the way" for the first time in a long time I felt normal again despite being in my chair they just made adjustments and didn't change tone of voice, show it on their faces or any other way no annoyance at having to move things. Thankyou! Being able to just have dinner and enjoys it and not worry made it all the more perfect it should be standard but it isn't hence my writing all this, all the staff did all the right things please keep it up. Please keep being a safe and welcoming place for wheelchair/powerchair users there arent alot of safe places. I'm also having to eat gluten loved how gluten free friendly the menu was! I ordered their gluten free carbonara takeaway the first night then when going back a few nights later got it again because it was absolute divine creamy heaven (I can not comment on the bathroom and if it is WC friendly as I never used the facilities) ”
