Pesto pasta
Latoya L.

Came to this establishment on a Sunday evening. We didn't have reservations, but it only took less than five minutes to get a table. They brought out complementary bread with oil. I wish it was warm, but that was OK. The oil tasted horrible. Like it was vegetable oil. We then ordered the blood orange soda and the lemon lime soda, which were good. We then ordered the spicy rigatoni and the pesto pasta. I didn't like the spicy rigatoni. The pasta was way too al dente , it taste very undercooked. The pesto pasta was also very al dente. It was hard to enjoy with the pasta being hard. The bill came up to $70. This is a one time experience for me.

We love Amerigo! They are sister restaurant to Fiorino in Summit, another favorite. Amerigo is BYOB and very family friendly. We LOVE their spicy rigatoni. Tonight we had the octopus app special, spicy rig, and Murray's Farms half chicken. The service and food are always outstanding.

Today was a knockout experience, in no small part due to our server Bruno. Everything was just right, just simply wonderful.

This was our 2nd visit to Amerigo and it was just as good as the 1st. We were a party of 6 and everyone was really happy with their dishes. To start, my husband and I shared a delicious Caesar salad. My entree, fettuccine with spinach and shrimp in a garlic olive oil sauce, was absolutely delicious and my husband loved his veal francaise with roasted potatoes. The atmosphere is relaxed and the service was excellent.

I thought the experience at Amerigo was very good. We sat a party of 12 on time for our 6:30pm reservation. Our waiter was always attentive, the food was delicious, and the plus side is BYOB! I would definitely dine here again

Fresh bread and Olive oil...

Great new addition to the Berkeley Heights restaurant scene. As soon as I saw one of my favorite restaurants in Summit Fiorinos was opening a new restaurant nearby I couldn't wait to check it out. My husband and I went for dinner tonight and it did not disappoint. We didn't have a reservation but were immediately greeted by the lovely hostess Nicole who showed us to a table for two. They were filling up pretty quickly for a Tuesday so reservations would probably be a good idea in the future. We were quickly greeted by our server David who was very friendly and took our drink orders while we perused the menu. We were served some ice water and some fresh bread and olive oil. The restaurant is BYOB and many patrons brought their own wine selections with them. The decor was very modern and inviting and they also had seating outside as well. David returned to take our orders and we went with the Calamari and Mussels to start and for the Mains I had the Fettuccine Alfredo w/ Chicken and my Husband had the Grilled Pork Chops. The Appetizers arrived after a short wait and the Calamari was fried to a crispy golden brown w/ a nice Marinara sauce and the Mussels were served in flavorful tomato based broth w/ basil, garlic, and white wine... Very good! Then the mains arrived... Everything looked great! My husband took a bite of his pork chop and couldn't wait for me to taste it. He said the combination of the pork and apple chutney were perfect together and I agreed. My fettuccine was great as well. Pasta was cooked Al dente and the sauce had a great flavor. Also the owner stopped by our table to greet us and see how everything was. He was making his rounds chatting with everyone, that's always a nice touch. So this was definitely a great evening that didn't disappoint so I highly recommend you pay them a visit.

Had an excellent meal at Amerigo! The staff was so attentive and gave us great recommendations. I started off with the Fried Calamari, Rustic Bruschetta & Clams Oreganata... all were fantastic but the Fried Calamari is a must try! It was FRESH, none of that frozen stuff here! The Spicy Rigatoni Vodka was DELICIOUS and so was the Lasagna Bolognese! Make sure to save room for dessert, the tiramisu is to die for a made fresh in house! Such a fantastic meal here, I will definitely be back soon!

Specials menu

Very close to being a top notch experience, but some things were off-putting. Let's start with the positives. Now, this location has gone through multiple changes over the last 10 years. First it was an Asian place, then a "traditional" feeling Italian place, now this a modern trendy Italian place. Interior is very pretty. I love the skylight in the middle. For a Tuesday night, this place was very active (even the outdoor dining). Our server Bruno was very attentive and professional. All of our food was pretty much a hit. Calamari was the perfect size (I don't like the massive rings, too chewy) and the breadcrumb seasoning was tasty. Also enjoyed the marinara - tasted how you would hope it would. The clams oreganata was also great. I enjoyed dipping my bread into the sauce. OH THE BREAD, how could I forget the bread. 3 different kinds, ones better than the other. Chef's kiss. My Mom and Dad both enjoyed their pasta dishes. I will say, when we first walked in the hostess and other wait staff at the front did not look happy we walked in, almost pissed. Also the person giving us water also looked bothered. Not saying you need to be dancing and cheerleading, but a smile goes a long way. Also- please change your oil that you use with the bread. The bread is stellar, but the oil tastes like...a weak flavorless oil. Almost like vegetable or something. Bring out the good olive oil.

Don't order delivery. Worst kids portion- $19 for butter pasta and it's not homemade and it was a side dish. Ridiculous

Ambiance is nice, but the food is just average. The sister restaurant, Fiorino, is a lot better in my opinion.
