I'll preface this by saying I've been many times and enjoyed it. I called in a small take-out order (1 appetizer, 1 salad), they said 25 min. 45 min later, I wondered if they'd forgotten about me - there wasn't a good place to wait and no one said anything to me - so I flagged someone down to ask about my order, at which point the bag was produced (making me wonder if it'd just been sitting on a shelf somewhere). Although it took 55 min rather than 25, I figure hey, it's Friday night, they're busy...whatever. However, my $15 appetizer consisted of four cold, soggy shrimp on 2 extremely soggy, extremely salty pieces of toast. $32 and nearly an hour yielded a tiny, nearly inedible appetizer and a beet salad...needless to say, I'm kind of disappointed :/

Cafe Amici is everything I expect from an Italian restaurant. The staff is very friendly and professional. Inside and outside are kept clean. Atmosphere is very family friendly. To put a cherry in top, the food is phenomenal. I will definitely be returning for another meal sometime in the future. Located on Whitney Ave across the street from Wells Fargo or Walgreens. There is no direct highway to get there. If you're on Rt15 take exit 61. If you're on I91 take exit 5, or exit 10>40 connector>exit 1. Do yourself a favor and make the drive. It's well worth it.

This place has been our go to since we’ve lived in Hamden. The food is excellent. The atmosphere is very comfortable. The only reason they get 4 stars for service is because they make it right when they mess up, otherwise it’s a 3. We were there in July and the waitress served us our appetizers and forgot our main dish even though she took the order. She came and asked what we wanted for dessert and we never got our meal yet. Tonight the waiter forgot our appetizers. In July we got one of our appetizers for free and tonight we were given a discount.
