We came for a family meal - booked mentioning we were using a Tastecard with 2 for 1 offer. We chose off the main menu where main dishes were all... read more priced at more than 20 pounds. When we started ordering the waitress said dishes over 20 pounds don't get included in the Tastecard offer of 2 for 1. So we changed two of fhe orders to dishes from the "cheaper" (13 pounds) pasta section of the menu. The food was disappointing and the pasta sauce far too salty. The puddings were then an additional 7.50 just for three scoops of ice-cream for children. The final bill was much more than anticipated on booking. The service had been good but overall I felt that we had been overcharged for canteen standard food.

  The best food, good quality of italien vine, very nice warm atmosphere. I came to this restaurant in sad mood. But when i tried ordered food- the taste of it... read more made up my mood. Thank you chef and staff.

  Tuesday evening, and two of the waiters were slightly like zombies. Did their "job" though yawning and looked they wanted to be somewhere else. The restaurant was NOT full, so... read more they should have spent a second or two to ask how the food was, AND! the older man, WHO probably was the owner,and not exhausted, and friendly, should have asked if I (and the other guests) before just removing the plates in a hurry. Like they wanted me out fast.

Maybe they had a party for the employees last night, haha.
I will give tjen another chsnce. Food was quite ok.

Bur PLEASE dont walk around me obviously waiting for me to finish my dessert.

  Whilst staying at a nearby hotel, we decided to give this independent Italian a try on a Tuesday night. We weren't disappointed, as evidenced by the full venue! Super home... read more made ravioli was just delicious, accompanied by great Italian wine, for not horrible money. Unexpectedly excellent, worth a try if you're in the area.

  We are a family of four. Every one of us absolutely loved everything about the experience of eating dinner at De Amicis one Sunday evening in April. The atmosphere was... read more great, the sevice friendly and quick and the food was absolutely superb.

  As a party of four we hadn't booked and were so lucky that a table had just become free. We all had pizzas washed down with house red.. delicious!

  We have visited this lovely Italian restaurant many times over the years so it seemed the ideal place to celebrate a significant birthday with a large group of family and... read more friends.

For some of the group De Amici's is like a reliable old friend whilst for many it was a first visit. Marco did so much to ensure the evening went smoothly and the wine flowed! We'd chosen a nice selection of items from the menu and each one was great.

We took over more than half the restaurant on a busy Saturday evening but nothing was too much trouble for the staff who made it a very special and memorable evening.

I can recommend this lovely restaurant without hesitation.

  We had the burrata starter which was very nice and then my wife had the crab spaghetti and I think they forgot the crab! Must have been cooked in stock,... read more there wasn’t any sign of crab. I had pannacota for dessert which had far too much gelatine and was inedible.
Combined with service from one guy asking “we’ll do you want anything” when asking if we want dessert and a lack of smiles generally it’s safe to say we don’t be back

  We had to change from underground to bus here and wanted to find something nice to eat close by and were delighted we chanced upon De Amicis. Independent perhaps family-run... read more restaurant with delicious food and good atmosphere. I had a delicious swordfish mains with my husband choosing one of the pasta dishes and we both indulged in a Granny (La Nonna) pud which was yummy - and am not usually a pud person. The wine was good and altogether an enjoyable evening. We will make a point of returning next time we're in town. Thank you
