AMO Bistrot

Tucked away in a quiet street, it's such a hidden gem! The service was great and the food was amazing, so well cooked and every bite was so tasty! I booked for my boyfriend's birthday and he had such a lovely experience. They even added a candle to his tiramisu without me even needing to ask! We will definitely be back next time we're in Verona! Thank you so much for a wonderful evening!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The food was delicious! We had pasta and oysters, and both were absolutely amazing 🤤. Everything was fresh and full of flavor. We were served very quickly, and the staff was friendly and welcoming. The restaurant was clean and had a nice atmosphere. Highly recommended!

Attended this evening (no research on the establishment prior) when we first entered it was unclear if it was open and no staff made themselves available to show us to a table however after finding a staff member myself we were assured we could sit in the court yard (and that smoking was permitted) after some confusion we were then directed to a different table we had chosen to sit at. We were then advised smoking was not allowed which I thought was strange as this must be the only place in Verona you cannot enjoy a cigarette in the open air. The setting is lovely and very private. Due to a larger table being seated after us there was some time until we were waited upon as they were prioritised but this is understandable to a degree. I ordered a Chatubriand and “smashed potatos” which was reasonably priced at €30 my and my accomplice ordered “salmon tiepido…..” again reasonably priced at €24. The salmon tiepido was virtually raw and although I am assured it was edible by the chef it was simply not something you could enjoy. As for the chatubriand it was served on a sizzling plate but had not been grilled. It tasted as though it had been microwaved to the point it was red hot on the outside but cold in the middle. I have steak on most occasions when I eat out and I have never returned one. On this occasion I felt compelled. I am convinced it had been microwaved but I will never know for sure. As for the smashed potato if your British you will understand it tasted like “smash” which is microwaved mashed potato. The consistency of it was more water the potato. Within two bites the meals were returned. I explained I would pay for the wine as we had drank the glasses but I would not be able to pay for the meal. The manager was graceful enough to not charge us at all which I thought was in good spirit. I expected more but I was disappointed .

Went here with some expectations based on reviews across the internet, but the place failed to live up to the same. The service levels were all right but not exceptional in any sense. The ambience was great with multiple areas suiting multiple moods and the music being great. However the food which was supposed to be the star of the show was a damp squib. From the giant sized unbalanced tamaki roll to the punch-less ceviche the appetizers largely disappointed. The prawns gyoza was nothing exceptional. The salmon roll was the only interesting item in the appetizers. In the mains the two pasta dishes we ordered both could be called average at best. The tempura was extremely disappointing with fat squid pieces being inedible while the prawns and vegetables were done ok. The cocktails though were very nice - their negroni with mezcal was a rosita at heart and their old fashioned packed a punch as it should. Their take on the yuzu gimlet was very delicious. All in all, would recommend the place for cocktails ans drinks only and not the food.

Absolutely beautiful restaurant with unique, Asian-inspired Italian dishes that were fantastic. The kataifi scallop in yuzu sauce was particularly delicious, and we wish we’d gotten more of them. Sadly, the paccheri with amberjack is not pictured as I accidentally deleted it, but it was a very pretty dish and tasted great. We were here on a Friday night that also happened to be Liberation Day, and we definitely needed a reservation, but it seemed like they’re usually busy.
