Amici Trattoria — Restaurant in Chelmsford

I would give this joke of a restaurant zero stars if I could. I went in and placed a to go order of chicken parmigiana and mozzarella sticks. I recieved my order in about 15 minutes, everything seemed fine until I got my order back home. The chicken parmigiana wasn't even chicken parmigiana, and what they gave me had leaked all over my vehicle from putting the order in my bag on its side (I was unable to remove the stain it caused). The order itself looked like the cook in the kitchen had scraped off someone's half eaten plate of food into a metal tray and tried to pass it off to me as what I ordered. I called them up to have my order fixed and voiced my concern. When I returned to the restaurant to get my corrected order and to show them what they gave me, the women behind the counter was extremely rude and made an off comment behind my back as I was leaving with my food. My main concern is quality. We all work hard for our money and when we pay for something, we as hard working people expect to get what we paid for, and not a hot...

Overall: 4.6/5

Food Warm rolls: 10/10 Kids (penne pasta w/butter): 10/10 (kid approved ;) ) Meatballs (side): 10/10 Caprese (app): 7/10 (Buffula cheese preferred, prefer a reduction of balsamic glaze) Steak Bomb: 8/10 Steak could use a little more seasoning. Had to lay on some salt and pepper but overall a pretty good bomb Shrimp Scampi: 8/10 wife’s review; scampi was good, pasta prepared Al dente, shrimp perfectly cooked and tossed, sauce was good but had a bit too much garlic.

Service: Greeted as we walked in by very homey vibe and staff. Food was quick and because there was no one in the restaurant with us response time was instant.

Atmosphere: very quaint. Lightening a little loud. Given how tasty and classy the food was prepared, a darker more intimate setting would make for a more traditional...

I wanted to try this place for a while ever since I moved to Chelmsford. I read reviews and decided to give them a shot. I got chicken broccoli & ziti in a garlic wine sauce with a side of garlic bread to go. It looked good until i tried it. It was the most bland tasting garlic wine sauce I've ever had and the chicken had absolutely no flavor either! I tried to eat at least half because I spent $20 on it but couldn't even do it. I wound up just picking the broccoli out and eating the garlic bread. It seems like a lot of people mention the portion size for why it was a good place to go...if it isn't good that's just a lot of food to through away! I might have got them on a bad day but consistency is key if you want good reviews and repeat customers. I will not be trying them again...
