From the moment I opened the door I knew the food was going to be amazing. To keep the review short I'll get straight to the point, everything was spot on, from the chicken , to the fries, to the sauce, and the recommendations, the execution was second to none. Now to elaborate a little bit more, upon walking in you get hit was a splendid aroma of Italian spices and fresh dough, I knew we were going to the right spot. My buddy and I quickly made our way to the bar eager for a drink and some good food. Brandon greeted us and immediately got down to business telling us about their Italian spin on the classic burger as well as a customer favorite chicken saltimbocca (a seasonal special). Boy was Brandon spot on. The burger was one of my favorites in all of Boise. It's not your average burger, it's jam packed with flavor and spice. I am not entirely sure of what they put on it but it reminds me of a pepper Italian salsa, the flavors combined very well with the meat. The fries are thick cut and remind me of a combination between a thick fry and a potato chip, it's probably my favorite cut I've ever tried. Great potato to crust ratio and just the right crunch to them. As for the chicken saltimbocca that was a first for me, and after that first impression I will be going back this week to have it again! The cheese, mash potato, and chicken combination was splendid. The mash potatoes were rich and thick!! There wasn't a single bite left behind on either plate. Not only was the food splendid but the atmosphere created by both the bartender Kayla and other employees like Brandon was second to none. Everyone sitting at the bar that night became friends and the laughter we all shared added to a wonderful day. I highly recommend this place for any type of date night or if you're looking for a good eat! read more

Ti Ami has taken a nose dive in the past year. We used to LOVE eating here and getting takeout, but I don't think we're ever going to eat here again. They had my favorite Cesar salad ever; the dressing was absolutely to die for. I ordered it tonight for the first time in a few months and it was inedible. Old, soggy lettuce, that tasted rotten and dressing with zero flavor. The croutons were the only saving grace. My husband got the spaghetti bolognese and was equally as disappointed. It had zero flavor. I'm adding pictures of my Cesar from tonight vs the side Cesar I got back in 2024 just to show how far it's fallen. The new owners ruined this restaurant. read more

Excited to try the latest Barbacoa concept -- Ti Amo Italian restaurant in Bown Crossing (former location of Flatbread). Menu looks good. It was Father's Day so they had a special seafood paella for the night. We liked the rice dish and wedge salad. Daughter liked her chicken Marsala, though a little extra rich. We will return with friends and dive deeper into their offerings--like homemade lasagna! Easy parking is a perk. read more

I wanted some Italian being from the North East. Chicken parm was on my mind hard. Upon arriving there the staff were great. They were super friendly and welcoming. I also ordered the olive tapenade. The smell and taste of fish were overwhelming. I had one bite and threw it away. The chicken parm, hard pass on that. The chicken wasn't crisp, I did get it to go, but I live 5 minutes from there. The sauce had absolutely no flavor and it was so underwhelming. I was mad that I wasted my money on their food. read more

To Amo never disappoints. I've visited Ti Amo several times in past year with a fairly sized social group and each time the service was great. The servers and managers were checking in, taking orders, delivering orders and truly trying to make sure everyone was getting what they needed. Even though it was a little warm on the patio we got fans positioned to keep us cool and comfortable ( the fans are even cool looking) Love,love, love the meatballs and the flatbread with the cupped pepperoni. The cocktails and wines were great as well. Can't wait until the next visit. If I could I'd rate read more

Friendly, prompt service and large portions-which helped us feel better about the price. We wanted to try this place based on the great reviews. After trying two pasta dishes, I would say the focaccia on the side ended up being our favorite part. Lovely presentation, but the marinara seemed to miss the mark for us. Our sauce was fairly bland and reminded us of the kind you would get out of a jar at the grocery store. After working in an Italian restaurant (in a past life), I will say this place has a great venue, but I think the Olive Garden would win when it came to our pollo parmagiana. The pizza looked a bit more promising, so we might try that next time. read more

I don't really give five stars that easily especially not to an Italian restaurant but I'm definitely giving one today! First I'll start with the location. Always a treat to go to Bown Crossing because for some odd reason it makes me feel like I'm on vacation outside of Boise. It's a small little getaway right outside Boise State University and it's open and Airy and quiet. Much quieter than downtown Boise these days!! Ti Amo also has an outdoor patio and when the weather is gorgeous outside there's nothing like sitting outside to eat and I was lucky enough that day to have outstanding weather! The one thing that stood out the absolute most to me, was the service. First and foremost my waiter greeted me immediately with a smile, and knelt down near my table to create a relationship right off the bat! He was knowledgeable of the food, very friendly, had a bubbly personality and answered all of my questions and then some. Forgive me as I don't remember his name but I'm pretty sure it began with a "B". He was smart engaging, professional, funny and very attentive without being overbearing. I ordered the crispy zucchini with Shaved Parmesan and it was served with a spicy Aioli of sorts and marinara sauce. I am a New Englander and I'm Italian and I have to say that was some of the best fried zucchini I've ever had in my life!!! It was a very generous portion and I ended up taking some to go because I couldn't finish it all nor would I dare,;-)!!! I also ordered a gorgeous cocktail made from cucumber, lemon, gin and some other amazing items that I can't remember right now! But it was delicious! I was torn between ordering the tortellini with prosciutto and peas as I love that combination and the spicy shrimp and mushroom stuffed gnocchi, and decided on the ladder. I guess I'll have to go back and try the other dish ASAP! I make it at home but with olive oil and garlic and white wine so I'm curious to try the creamy version of it. The shrimp were huge and there were like six of them I think, and the gnocchi we're round which I imagine lended well to the stuffing them. In all my years of eating and cooking Italian cuisine, I've never seen them stuffed before but they were good and they weren't super heavy like a lot of potato gnocchi can be. There were similar to the ricotta version that I actually make at home. Like little fluffy pillows. The marinara sauce was very very good, not too sweet or acidic and had a good texture as well. The absolute only thing I would say is that the red hot chili flakes were a plenty and they kind of messed with the texture of the sauce. Usually when I create a marinara sauce I put them in while the sauce is cooking and it becomes soft and I only put a small amount and there was a lot in the dish which made it nice and spicy which was great, but just kept bighting into something hard and then I realized that's what it was! Other than that the dish was beautiful it came out with a very large sprig of Basil which maybe was a bit unnecessary but it was impactful visually. I just broke it up and spread it around the dish and it was perfectly fine. It is my birthday week so I decided to splurge and get myself a shot of espresso and some homemade tiramisu which I was treated by the waiter with. I think that the flavor profile for this dessert was very good and on point but the only thing I thought was that the mascarpone was a little bit heavy and not as light and fluffy as some of the more custard reversions I have eaten in the past, but it was very delicious. The flavors were amazing! All in all I was absolutely impressed that I could get Italian food this good in Boise if I'm being transparent. I've lived here for 11 years but like I said I grew up eating and making Italian and I'm writing a cookbook right now as well, so I think I'm a pretty good judge! I give them five stars all around because they delivered the food the portions were great, the place was spotless clean and stylish and their weight staff was absolutely impeccable!!! Fantastic experience and I thank you! What a way to start out my birthday week! read more

Wonderful ambience and the food was amazing. They do a fresh Caesar salad right at the table. They offer happy hour with a good selection of wines and mixed drinks. The lasagna was fabulous. The staff was excellent and very knowledgeable. We will be back. read more

Tried Ti Amo on New Year's Eve. We were able to get a little earlier reservation which was nice. First the good - we were seated quickly - although they put us by the door and it was quite cold so we were able to move to a table further inside the restaurant. Service was very good and prompt, food came out quickly. We really liked the fact there's a 50% off happy hour until 5:30pm and the pizzas were $15 on Tuesdays! Our drinks were very good, and they have a great selection of cocktails and beers. Had the Baked Goat Cheese as an app, very tasty. Also the wedge salad was great, and they split one for us which was good as the split portion was still quite large. The Tiramisu for dessert was also very good. As for the not so good, I would say the pizza was good but not great. A little too over crisped for our tastes, we were expecting a more Napolese style which these aren't. I wouldn't have pizza if I go back, I would probably go with some pasta and give that a try. read more

Kids size pizza for $21... lol and it's not even that good. The sauce is straight sugar with a hint of tomato. Disappointing.

North East Italian woman on a quest to find my go to Italian spot in Boise, and the quest continues. Atmosphere, service, wine list, breads were great. My husband's chicken gorganzola special was a home run flavor explosion. My interest was peaked with the stuffed gnocchi. Couldn't taste the stuffing and the marinara lacked flavor. Since the menu offers simple, classic dishes, a Nonna may be needed to upgrade that red sauce. Cannoli were great too but the shell was a little dense. No harm though, it's hard to master and easy to over fry when small. I'm still waiting for "italian resturants" to grasp putting Caprese on the antipasti menu. Overall not bad. A good place to dine, just not my got to pasta joint when I need a taste of home. read more

My friends and I had dinner at Ti Amo the other night. We sat out on the patio, where a gentleman was playing beautifully soft music. Our meals came and everyone's food was delicious except my chicken was dry and overcooked. They were unable to deliver a properly cooked chicken so to compensate they prepared me another dish. It was a shrimp dish and it was cooked perfectly and so delicious. I am pleased that this establishment does not stop until the customer is happy. Not only did they provide me with a new dish, but they comped both entrées. It's nice to see that there are companies who go the extra mile and take pride in what they make. read more

Enjoyed some delicious food tonight! The place is cute, clean and quite refreshing. Steak and shrimp platter was a 10 out of 10. We hoped to try the tiramisu but it's was a sold out. The waiter said it was very popular among the patrons. Free parking in the back read more

Great time at this restaurant! Very cool clock wall when you first walk in. First time and we had the chicken parm and the bolognese. Both were great. Service staff looked very professional and our server did a fantastic job. We'll be back! read more

Outstanding restaurant! The food was delicious. We started off with a Lampone Limone. Not only was it beautifully presented, but it was delicious. Topped off with a Limoncello froth, it was the perfect summer drink. Then we had the garlic bread with truffle, basil, ricotta, whipped cheese, Caesar salad, and the tortellini with prosciutto. I highly recommend each of these dishes. Brinley F, our server, was delightful and very professional. The ambience of the restaurant was very nice. Live music was out on the patio which added to the charm. A classic movie was shown on the TV screen inside the restaurant. There were also fabulous, black and white posters of Italian actors and actresses from the past. And don't forget to end a wonderful evening with the cast-iron cookie topped with vanilla caramel ice cream. It was molto bene! read more

We had reservations for dinner to celebrate my 50th birthday, which I noted when booking. This was a very meaningful night for us because it will likely be the last birthday I get to spend with my dad, who is in hospice. When we arrived, the server asked two nearby tables if they were celebrating anything, but never asked us. Despite mentioning twice during the meal that it was my birthday, it was never acknowledged. This was disappointing because a small gesture could have made the evening feel special given the circumstances. On top of that, my mom's chicken was so tough she had to pass it across the table for me to cut for her. For what was meant to be a very important and memorable evening, the service and food fell short. We left feeling let down on a night that mattered deeply to us read more

We love Ti Amo. Fantastic food, awesome happy hour specials and top notch service! The only reason for 4 stars rather than 5 is the menu. It's a bit confusing and inaccurate in some cases. For example, we ordered the "roasted cauliflower" appetizer but it wasn't roasted. It was battered and fried. Very tasty but not what we expected. Also, the price for that dish was printed incorrectly but at least the price was less than what was printed. Very minor critique but no one likes getting a dish that doesn't match the description. Besides that, Ti Amo is highly recommended! read more

We tried Ti Amo again last night and I ordered the raviolis with Alfredo sauce. It arrived hot and was very delicious. I wanted to give the ravioli another chance to see if it would be a better experience than last time, and it was. Great experience! read more

We used to love to come have lunch at Flatbread . Now the owners changed the hours where you can't even have lunch. Who closes at noon? Bown is so amazing but restaurants like this with silly hours make it hard to enjoy it. read more

Our daughter graduated from Boise State over the weekend and we had a dinner here after for about 25 people. The food, venue, and most importantly the service was a 10/10. Bryce (manager) is amazing at what he does. We were in constant communication with him prior to get the menu set up and he made sure to have the pizzas and appetizers ready to serve when we arrived. Everyone loved it! Our servers were MiKayla and Faith and they were excellent! Paige was our bartender and Milo and Dylan also helped out! If you want a restaurant with great Italian food and even better service, you have to give Ti Amo a try! read more

One of the best neighborhood spots. The owners are awesome and really elevated the menu, staff, and overall experience.

The ambiance of this restaurant is just like the Flatbread that was there. Just a bit more elegance and (do not set customers in the center of room) We were to the side but right near wait station and I was bumped several times. They take reservations and never seems too busy. The food is fresh and traditional with some twists and turns in appetizers. overall a good experience. read more

Food was excellent, service was very good, music choices were classics and not too loud, and ambiance was modern and well done. Will be back with our friends as this was our first time, exploratory dinner. Want to try their pizza next time! read more

Same owner as the restaurant that used to be in Laguna Beach. Same Executive Chev too. Food was excellent. Was fun to visit in Boise since my wife and I had our second date at the Laguna Beach Ti Amo 26 years ago. Service was perfect and the evening was a delight. Boise customers are lucky to have this one in their backyard. read more

Loved the ambiance and was exciting have good Italian food in the neighborhood. I was very disappointed with the Chicken Marsala pasta I ordered. The flavor was good, but the pasta was soggy and overcooked. I was surprised that the server didn't come by and check on us after the food was dropped, he never asked how anything was. The manager was there, he greeted us when we walked in, not very friendly, and never came over and welcomed us or asked how anything was. These are just simple things that make a big difference in your dining experience. Very disappointing and will not go back or recommend to anyone. read more

Worst Italian food in the valley for sure. Barbacoa opens this and nick's in eagle trying to do Italian. Embarrassing for the owner!!

Ahmazing 7- day a week happy hour. Great service. Large portions. Beautiful decor. What's not to love?

Cute and chill morning coffee spot! enjoyed the espresso. Will definitely be coming back:)

Very good food. A kids meal is $18 tho which is insane for a kids meal and the water tasted like metal.

Love what they have done to this restaurant, food is amazing, decor is cool. The main reason I keep coming back is Dylan the server, she will do anything and everything to ensure that the guests have the best experience. Give this girl a raise! read more

A few weeks ago my boyfriend was looking for an Italian restaurant to take me to, and boy did he strike gold finding Ti Amo Italian Ristorante. They are the whole package: Comfortable setting, fantastic service, the drinks, and the food, well that is a subject all on its own. I have never had a better meal than I did that day. The only bad thing I can say was the serving was not big enough. Don't get me wrong, the serving was generous, but with how amazingly delicious it was, I wanted more. The staff is as equally good as the food. Our server, Kayla J, was personable, friendly, and extremely proficient at her job. During our meal, I asked her what her name was. I wanted to mention her in the review I was going to write, she told me her name and followed up with "what are your names". When we were leaving she was up front and said goodbye to us using our names. What a nice young lady!!! I told everyone about my experience and suggested they go there. I will definitely be back!!! read more
