We sampled all 3 of the red wines they offered before deciding on one and buying a bottle. Bottle prices are fair enough, but these aren't high end wines. We ordered the mussels appetizer here again as it was awesome last time... And it was awesome again! So delicious. The hummus bowls were ok. We're generally not wow'd with these, but when combined with an appetizer and their complimentary dip with pita, it's all filling enough. The air felt a bit stagnant here again and then some customer must have said something because they finally turned on their house air conditioning. It felt so much more comfortable at that point, but we were already almost done with our meal. Service was great. They also charge a 3% credit card fee or offer a 4% discount if paying with cash. A mixed bag of penalty and incentive.

There was plenty of parking in the lot and when I went to their website to "Get in line" it said there was no wait for a party of my size (2). I was pleasantly surprised to see that was truly the case and we were seated right away. The restaurant had a cool vibe and was spotless. Our waitress could not have been nicer and our drink and food orders were taken right away. My iced coffee took a little longer than my mom's hot coffee to come out and she kept me updated with its progress which was appreciated. I ordered two lemon blueberry pancakes which came with warm syrup. They were delicious and for such an elevated breakfast it was a relief to see they were only $8.50. My mom got the Wilbur's skillet with egg over hard and she was pleased with her meal as well. We will definitely be returning!

Located on the busy West Pleasant Avenue in Maywood, my partner, our friends, and I decided on Amici's, translated from the Italian meaning "friends." Upon arrival for some of us as first-timers at this family-owned BYOB neighborhood establishment, we were greeted by the staff and got a table for 5 inside one of the dining rooms by the window for a celebratory dinner. Outside dining is available, weather permitting. Their menu features authentic Italian staples such as wood-fired pizzas, classic pasta dishes, and homemade comfort food. As appetizers, we decided on the Rice Balls with vodka sauce. For our main meal, we opted for the Flounder Francese, Eggplant Parmigiana (one with spaghetti and another with linguini), Paccheri with Seafood, Roma Pizza, and Tossed Salad. Some meal accompanied by a side salad. Complimentary bread began our meal. Everything tasted fresh and well-balanced. One can tell they take pride in their ingredients and preparation. The pasta especially deserves all the hype, rich, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. The portions were healthy and suitable for a second meal. The prices were reasonable. The owner, Rosario, would personally visit each table for small talk. The entire staff was warm, attentive, and genuinely cared about making our experience special; our server was Dawne. So, the next time one sits down to eat, take a moment to appreciate the experience. Savor the flavors, yes, but also relish the connections that form across the table. In a world that sometimes feels divided, food serves as a reminder of our shared connections. This is exactly how a business needs to be run; therefore, we highly recommend Amici's to anyone looking for true back-home dining.

Hopefully the restaurant will improve the food and keep its online menu pricing consistent with what customers are actually charged.

(Every few months) My wife saw Soup Dumpling Plus and wanted to give it a try. We brought our daughter at around 6 pm on a Saturday and were seated after about a 20 minute wait. The restaurant is very popular, we got a comfortable booth, and the professional staff got right to work. During our wait, we had selected our choices on a paper, and upon seating gave the paper to the waitress. Soon thereafter, the food started landing. Obviously we spent dinner comparing every dish to the competitor. I would be splitting hairs to say there's much of a difference on many of the dishes. Pork buns and soup dumplings were both excellent. The vegetable fried rice was subtle and nicely prepared. I enjoyed the pork with celery and five spiced tofu entree, our daughter enjoyed the sesame chicken, and my wife liked the chicken with udon noodles. The only somewhat "miss" for us was the cucumber salad. Certainly not bad but the pieces were a bit large and that limited the flavor. Glad we gave it a try and we understand why it's very popular!
