I was taking my mother on a girls night - and we went to the Lion King after this horrible experiece known as Amici's. I had heard good things about this restaurant throughout the years, however, if I could remember who said these ""good"" things I would most certainly hunt them down and make them pay for my outrageous bill. I was lured in by the cute little house and darling curb appeal. . .to only find a seat upstairs in this freazing, ice cold room that had the worst lighting ever. Don't get me started on the huge cracks in the walls that we were quite afraid would give away at any moment. The service was terribly slow, but I kept my hopes up that when the food arrived life would be grand. I am sorry to say it was the total opposite. We both ordered a chicken parmesan dish and could not believe how rubbery, cold and tastless the chicken was, I could hardly cut it with my knife. . and the sauce was horrible. Very tasteless, cold and small portions. I can not believe this place is still in business more importantly that there is even ONE good comment about them on this website. I was quite disappointed to say the least. If you want REALLY GOOD italian I recommend going to Salvatores. It is at 86th and Ditch. I just had my son's rehersal dinner there and couldn't belive how good it was.
Pros: Cute curb appeal
Cons: Way to expensive, horrible service, horrible food. . . .
