I had a great time visiting lamore. We all shared our food family style and I thought everything was delicious. Great size portions and I left super stuffed. My favorite was the dessert calzone. Must have in little Italy. It was a casual restaurant that felt very welcoming. The service was great with two serving our table. I would recommend. read more

I was walking down little Italy and was greeted by L'AMORE's owner to give his place a shot. Let's just say I was not disappointed in any way. The food was beyond phenomenal. They make their pasta in house and you can definitely taste the quality. Highly recommend the lobster ravioli and the branzino in white wine sauce. Service and ambiance matched with great recommendations from the server including the cannoli at the end. Would definitely recommend this place to any pasta lover read more

L’AMORE Restaurant - Homemade Lasagna Gnocchi Pesto with Mussels Calamari Fritti - Italian Near Me - New York, New York

AVOID THIS PLACE. THEY ARE SCAM ARTISTS. They charged us $10 for tap water plus a 3% "curtesy fee" PLUS an automatic 18% gratuity for a table of two.... And the food was barely acceptable- my raviolis were under done (like how is that even possible) and my husband's eggplant parm was a pile of mush. Inside is grungey and outdated. AVOID AVOID AVOID read more

While walking around little Italy we were feeling peckish when a server caught our attention and herded us into this wonderful establishment in good timing. He sat us at this gorgeous outdoor seating area and got us established with some water and fresh bread. The food was unbelievable, I had never before this moment tasted fresh noodles, it was completely different from what you usually get at any old restaurant claiming to serve 'Italian Cuisine'. The calamari was perfect and not chewy or overcooked whatsoever, even my mom who's not a huge squid fan enjoyed it! The seating area was clean and secluded as it surrounded you with real and fake flowers good for conversations with company! PS. Don't let the one star reviews based solely on pricing alone scare you away; if you were familiar with New York you'd know how pricing works, I personally believe the price matches the quality at this establishment! read more

L’AMORE Restaurant - Fettuccine Alfredo - Italian Near Me - New York, New York

The staff here is so nice and friendly. They are welcoming and the food is awesome. We ate it so fast I completely forgot to take pictures!! The crème brûlée is amazing and the bartender is super cool. She makes an awesome margarita. The restaurant itself is nice and quiet. It's a reprieve from the bustling action of Italy. Definitely stop in for a break. read more

I have to be honest, this felt like a tourist trap. We were at a festival in Little Italy and chose to sit down and have a bite at 5:30 on a Friday. No wait. The pasta was better than expected, but certainly nothing to write home about. I did enjoy that the noodles were al dente and it came out pretty quickly, but it's also very saucy which I'm not exactly fond of. It was a large portion so there is potential for leftovers. The wine on the other hand was terrible!! They had only "House Wines" available in a glass and trust me it's not worth the $15. After one sip I had to verify that they brought me the Cab. She was nice and offered me to try a different house red but it was honestly worse. I could tell they genuinely wanted to find me something I would enjoy so they ended up bringing a sample of the Malbec which still wasn't good, but better than the cab. Since I was going to pay for it regardless I drank that. I appreciated the effort, the staff was nice. I do believe it was overpriced for the quality though. Also be mindful that regardless of the group size (it was only two of us) the gratuity is already included! read more

L’AMORE Restaurant - Penne alla vodka and Lobster Ravioli - Italian Near Me - New York, New York

I have been coming here for quite some time now and would definitely recommend. The place is small and intimate making it feel like a good place to get some food and to talk with some friends. The service was attentive, but didn't feel like they were on top of you. The only struggle is that it's in Little Italy and the area can get extremely packed at times. The bread they served in the beginning was nothing special and wasn't warm. I got the Fettuccine Alfredo and the penne vodka and they were both delicious. They were both extremely rich and creamy. If you're looking for a nice calm place to eat with friends and family, this is it. read more

Disappointed horrible cooking with roaches in the food. Hope the health department close this place

Came here on a Saturday night with a reservation for two and was seated quickly. We had warm bread set on our table shortly afterwards. Ordered the L'Amore martini and the shrimp scampi. It was good but a bit overpriced for $30. I will say the ambiance was noisy, but we were seated in a nicer area. Would recommend! read more

Well, i have to tell you. The pastas tasted great ! It's just a bit too creamy to my liking. The carbonara is not my favorite , because I like it more egg yolky than creamy. The meat sauce is delicious , but it's a bit too generic for me. The place offers authentic italian food but the pastas menu perhaps are not for me. One dish that you must try, is their marsala pasta !! I didn't have the chance to take a picture, but that pasta is DELICIOUS read more

Food here was ok nothing spectacular. Portions were big but be prepared to use lots of salt. Beat part of the meal was the mozzarella caprese. Lobster ravioli was completely tasteless and was drowning in sauce. Gnocchi was tiny little pieces and had no flavor. Service was just blah. Waiter did not want to engage in any way. He basically just stood at the table waiting for us to tell him what we wanted. Door person promised us a free appetizer when we came in. That is how he lured us in. At the end of the meal, the appetizer was charged and the waiter said he could not take it off. On the way out we mentioned it to the door person and he faked that he was surprised but did nothing about it. It's just a trick to get you in. The charge an automatic gratuity and some random "convenience charge" of 3.5%. Would not recommend. Our dinner for two was $200 and not remarkable at all. read more

This is a an EXCELLENT restaurant with delicious Italian food and excellent service. our family enjoyed lunch here In June 2024 and thoroughly enjoyed it. Everything about our experience was outstanding. We were especially surprised at how large the lunchtime portions were! And EVERYTHING WAS VERY TASTY!

Went here and just got drinks and a calamari. Even though the calamari looked bland it was actually very delicious and savory. The staff there was nice and friendly minus the bar tender he had some sort of attitude but the rest of the service was impeccable. The drinks were pretty delicious as well read more

i stopped by L'Amore with my husband last weekend for late lunch. I ordered the chicken parmesan and it came with my choice of a side of spaghetti or veggies (I chose the veggies) and my husband ordered the fettuccini alfredo. For dessert, I ordered 1 cannoli. The food was delicious and the cannoli was probably one of the best that I've ever had. The bill came out to $60+. Know before you go - The restaurant charges a convenience fee. Not sure what it was for. read more

We had two entrees, and one appetizer. 2 drinks each - $188 with their standard gratuity. They automatically add 18% gratuity and some random convenience charges. Typically, I wouldn't mind paying but the service was TERRIBLE. We waited 45 minutes for our order to be taken. The servers were in such a rush that they wouldn't even come to the table to serve the food but extend their arm for us to grab it. The food was good. I do not recommend this place. read more

I actually ate so much of the fettuccine Alfredo too fast and I couldn't finish it because it was too good I won't lie

The portions here are huge and delicious! You can absolutely share entrees, especially if you want to try some apps as well. We had a great time sitting outside in their street dining room! It started pouring at the end of our dinner so we just ordered another bottle of wine and enjoyed it! The seafood pasta special was great and I loved that it was a bit spicy. My coworker got the lasagna and it was massive and looked incredible. The staff was attentive but not overly so. If you're in Little Italy, definitely give them a try! read more

L’AMORE Restaurant - Seafood pasta. Drool - Italian Near Me - New York, New York

Tourist trap - do not come here! It seems cozy and food seems more affordable than everything surrounding but they have a lot of hidden costs. The food is not worth the price and is not that good - you're better off going to Parm. Their food justifies the price. We paid $20 for a well whiskey and coke here, they charge for water ($20 for two bottles of water for half a cup per person), adding chicken to any pasta is $10 extra dollars, and honestly the pasta tastes lower than olive garden quality. Really disappointed in this place :/ read more

First let me start off with the service. Our server was top notch. She made sure we had everything we needed and checked with us often. Secondly, the Fettuccini Alfredo was absolutely the best I've ever tasted, and this being my favorite Italian dish, I've had plenty both in the US and Italy. Lastly, the cannoli was to die for. All in all, this restaurant is a must if you love authentic Italian food and are in Little Italy. read more

Dine in | Dinner | Total $86 The food was delicious! We ordered the fettuccine alfredo w/chicken, lobster ravioli and ceasar salad. Portions are huge so keep in mind, me and 2 others friends split the plates and we left very satisfied; however, there are no refills on sodas/soft drinks. The manager, Ayman, was super polite and attentive and the overall atmosphere was great. 10/10 would eat here again! read more

0 Stars - Earlier today, 2/9, around lunchtime, five coworkers and I went to L'amore Restaurant to celebrate a coworker's birthday. What should have been a simple, happy lunch turned into one of the most horrifying dining experiences I've ever had. After taking only two bites of my cheese ravioli, I immediately noticed the texture was off. Then I felt it, a snap and crunch in my mouth. I spit the bite back onto my plate and was horrified to see half of a waterbug or large cockroach mixed in with my food. Using my fingers, I pulled what was still in my mouth out onto the plate and found roach legs, part of the head, and a visible antenna. I had already swallowed part of it. Yes. I ingested part of a waterbug. My coworkers inspected the plate and confirmed exactly what I feared. This wasn't a mistake. It was absolutely a large waterbug. We immediately alerted the waiter. His response? He looked at the plate, then looked at me in a way that strongly suggested he believed we planted it ourselves. No concern. No apology. No "are you okay?" He simply grabbed the plate and walked away to the back. That reaction alone was almost as disturbing as the roach itself. We all stood up and left immediately, completely disgusted and unable to even consider eating anywhere else after what we had just experienced. Our coworker's birthday celebration was completely ruined. And in hindsight, it all makes sense. When we first arrived, a worker was standing outside begging people to come in. Against our better judgment, we gave the place a chance. This is what we got. The irony? The bathroom was sparkling clean. Maybe the kitchen could use even half of that level of attention. If you're thinking about eating here, do yourself a favor and stay far away. The sanitary conditions are clearly questionable, but even worse is the complete lack of accountability, professionalism, and basic care for customers. This place doesn't just serve food,it serves disgust. Steer clear. read more

The food was really good, but the service is horrible. They are literally dragging you in off the street. We sat down and waited 10 minutes for a menu. People that was seated after us were served faster. The food was really good. The veal saltimbocca and lobster ravioli was delish. There's many good restaurants on Mulberry street. Other restaurants for sure have amazing food and better service. read more

Expensive, bland, so-so. We ordered calamari and the marinara sauce was good but the calamari had no flavor.

MAJOR tourist trap -- do not recommend coming here unless you're starving, can't find anywhere else to eat, and you're willing to get ripped off. I came here after dealing with bad service at several other nearby restaurants, and found that service was good (we were quickly seated and the waiters were fast). However, the food was atrociously disappointing. Their bread was easily the worst bread that both my boyfriend and I have had in our entire lives -- it was VERY stale and practically inedible. We both ordered penne alla vodka, and it came out within 2 minutes of ordering. It was laughable since they didn't even pretend to freshly cook the noodles or sauce. The pasta noodles were also way too overcooked (almost mushy) and the sauce tasted like it was from a jar. The total came out to $30 per pasta, more than I have paid for actually decent pasta in the city. They add an 18% gratuity to the receipt without any warning as well (even for just 2 people) and the website you pay on tries to get you to tip another 18%. read more
