Review from Drach V.

I really LIKE this place.
We had no reservations, so I had to kill some time driving around in the dark, but we got a late table and were not disappointed.
Small, cozy atmosphere, and the food was excellent. I had the veal scallopini.
I will go back next time I am in Vancouver for the evening. -

Oh, I have a new "amore"! What can I say, I'm a sucker for really good Italian food (and wine, and gelato, and men...) But where was I? Right, the food: After sharing a starter mixed green salad, I had a seafood risotto with prawns and scallops. It had a wonderful tomato basil flavour and the seafood was perfectly cooked. Then for dessert I shared a chocolate pate (like a chocolate torte) with sundried cherry sauce, and spumoni gelato. FYI, in addition to being incredibly decadent and worth the cheat on your diet, the chocolate pate was gluten free. A Celiac's guilty pleasure.
In addition to the fantastic food, the staff were great: our host was hilarious and constantly cracking jokes, and our server was extremely friendly, professional and attentive (including a very prompt response to my usual "Can you check if this has gluten in it please?") If you have an excuse to visit West Van and want to satisfy a craving for Italian food, check it out. -

Amici offers one of the better selection for Italian food in the North Shore. They have great lunch specials and the price is reasonable. They create daily specials which makes it easy to go back frequently. My most recent discovery there was their mushroom soup. Who knew a simple mushroom soup could taste so good? Lovely service and atmosphere.

Review from Doug G.
A worthy option in West Vancouver . . .
But I was not blown away with the food. I ordered the lunch special, trout and pasta. I grew up catching trout in Saskatchewan and cooking them the same day, so maybe I'm a bit spoiled.
Everything was nice, nothing was over the top. -

A beautiful relaxing place for lunch or dinner. The daily specials are always good. The mushroom soup was fabulous. The linguini and clams were done just right. I love the homemade bread as well. It is a great restaurant for romance, friends, business or yourself. I highly recommend Amici on marine drive.
