Amoretto Italian Restaurant

My goto Italian restaurant! I’m in Allen but only 10 min away so convenient is there. What’s important is the food, just fabulous! The service is superb! The ambience just perfect. They are very fast but most importantly how delicious the food was! Definitely will be back for more!

Food was delicious. We had the salmon salad and the Vodka pasta, both were incredible. The garlic knots tasted great, I think a little more baking would have been ideal. The dipping sauce was good. Did have a little slow service and the the entire first half of the meal was loud because 2 old women were yelling at each other to communicate. Otherwise was very pleasant!

Stop eating junk food at the 'restaurants' nearby if you're in DFW! Go check out this cozy beautiful authentic Italian restaurant right now! Don't judge the area where it's at, stepping inside is a whole different world. The garlic breads were served very generously They are very moist, soft, flavorful and freshly baked too unlike some other places serving you breads with sponge texture! We had clamps, alfredo sauce as appetizer and the kitchen gave us abundant extra breads without the need to order additional ones ($3.99 for 6). More importantly, the cheese they serve in lasagna are some of the best type out there that I believe are imported from Italy which can stretch miles in the hot plate. Server and owner are very friendly, even offered to fill my coke when I was paying. I'd definitely come back and will let everyone I know in person to check out the place, especially if you're on a date! The price is very inexpensive especially during this crazy inflation time! Don't judge the book by the cover! You'll thank me later and no need to buy me a coffee!

Small, cozy italian restaurant with amazing food. Both the chicken parmesan and baked ziti were excellent. The garlic rolls were also delicious.

This was a great experience. Very cute inside, the atmosphere was calm and welcoming, very nicely decorated. The service was fast. The food was delicious; we had the baked tortellini, meatballs, tour of Italy, and the chicken Marsala. 10/10 would recommend.

I placed a very large catering order via EZ Cater and was pleasantly surprised with the quality and food presentation. It was delivered on time by one of the employees. My guests kept asking where the food came from. It was a huge hit. I ordered spaghetti, lasagna, chicken parmesan and chicken alfredo. The portions were beyond generous which was great for my family to take home. Everything arrived warm and freshly prepared. It was quite evident the restaurant takes pride in creating delicious Italian cuisine. I highly recommend Amoretto to friends and family. I'm looking forward to visiting the restaurant for a sit down meal!

My family and I always come here when we're feeling like Italian or some really great lasagna. This is the only Italian place we regularly go to. We've always loved the friendly and helpful servers as well as the excellent food. Everytime I come here I try something new and have not been disappointed in any aspect. The atmosphere is cozy and warm. Great for a night out with the family or a date night. Overall Amoretto is really nice place to go when you want some delicious food and an inviting atmosphere.

Oh my gosh! I was craving a salad on my way home from the gym and I popped into this restaurant because it was on my way and bought a simple salad and oh my gosh this was probably one of the best salads that I’ve ever had! They have this red house salad dressing and it was literally a 10 out of 10. I can’t believe I’ve been driving by this place for years and never stopped to Try their food. I will definitely be back to try other items on the menu. If the salad is this good, I can only imagine how good everything else taste!

Y'all. This is hands down one of my favorite restaurants in Dallas. They give you bread as a starter and it is soooo delicious. I've been here 3 times and I completely forget to take photos every visit because of how eager I am to start eating. I've only had their Crispy Chicken Ala Vodka and it is absolutely amazing! 10/10 recommend. The service is great and quick. Very casual and homey vibe.

Arrivederci! Whatta cute little Italian spot tucked in the corner of Spring Creek and 75. The minute you step inside, it's like a little trattoria. The garlic knot basket is perfect (and comes with a marinara sauce to dip) and IMO the best thing ever! We got linguine Vongole with white sauce (y'all know this is what I order EVERY time, my litmus test) and the hubs got linguine pomodore (tomato!) and we also ordered manicotti (to go for our kiddo). The linguine with white clam sauce has a lot of clams and little neck clam shells (legit!) and very saucy. I wish I saved some garlic knot to dip in the sauce. I added red chili flake and a sprinkle of Parmesan. Oo it's quite delicious. We didn't have any room left for dessert! Highly recommend this cozy spot and the service was superb and fast, everyone super friendly. I might have messed up my order but it was fixed right away!

We ordered the chicken Limon and it had almost no lemon taste to it, which was a bummer. The sauce was OK, but needed a lot more flavor. The chicken and shrimp carbonara was very flavorless as well. Our favorite part were the garlic knots with the marinara sauce. The ambience inside is more casual and the service was fine.

I absolutely love this little place. I always order a little off menu and do a salmon Alfredo, and man, it's good. Service is always on point, and Maria is absolutely adorable. It's got a small, hometown feel, but the food has been pretty consistent.

So I would give this restaurant a 4 1/2 star, but I could only choose between five and four. Why I deducted half a star was because of the service, the girl that was waiting on us didn't seem to care that we were there she didn't have any real answers for us and she just seemed to be passing time. Other than that, for the type of restaurant it is it was really good. I had the spaghetti and meatballs. My husband had the meat lasagna however there wasn't much meat in that lasagna, FYI. We ordered chicken Alfredo and a pizza to go for our kids. The restaurant is cute and quaint and BBYO and the price is very very reasonable. I will go back again with my family, hoping for a little more exciting service and hopefully next time try a dessert

Great customer service and food . Pasta very good and homemade . The garlic rolls were really good also. Hidden gem for sure

This place absolutely crushed it! Super authentic flavor and menu. I got take out but service was quick and the restaurant was nice and clean when I picked up my food. Really delicious! I ordered classic fettuccine Alfredo with chicken which was simple but done well. I also got the sausage and pepperoni Stromboli which was awesome! I definitely will be back!

10/10. I usually have something to say about a resteraunt, either the food is missing something or the service or ambiance is off but this place? 10s across the board. I ordered the Fettuccine Alfredo & pesto pasta with friend chicken. My date ordered something that was also good but i don't even remember what it was , all i remember is my meal perhaps because of the 3 glasses of tasty house blend white wine but who knows The meal was rich, decedent, and delicious. The pasta creamy, flavorful, and pairing beautifully with my wine. I have no critiques ! A true hole in the wall. Best part ? It kept in the fridge so well ! We used an air fryer to heat up the leftovers but i closed my eyes and i was back in the restaurant !

The environment is cozy and the owner welcomes you in, as if you're having dinner with him in his own home. I've been looking for an Italian restaurant that has good carbonara for a long time! Amoretto has the most amazing, creamy, full of flavor carbonara ever! I'm drooling just thinking of it! Their garlic knots are also a special edition to our meal. My kids love it, along with their pizzas! I've tried their different pastas, and each one of them are just as good! You can't go wrong with any of them! I've also gotten their calamari to go and it was just as crunchy and delicious as if you ate in the restaurant! Definitely recommend! I am a repeat customer since the first bite of their carbonara!

What a gem. This is such a cute restaurant with amazing food and wonderful customer service. The chicken fettuccine, chef salad, kids pizza, and chicken carbonara were all fabulous.

Called next day and manager remade the entre. Night & day difference!!!! The remade fettuccine calíbrese was delicious. The chicken was tender and the sauce was remarkable. I would order and recommend this again. Don't know what happened with the first order but this was very good. Egzon H (owner) contacted me the next day to see if we were satisfied with the remade order. We are. I'm

Garlic Bread... YUM! Could have eaten the entire basket myself. The "Amoretto Special" was mostly great. Shrimp very flavorful. Chicken acceptable. The veal left a bit to be desired--a small, tough piece of meat. Got the Chef Salad and Large Spectacular 4x4 pizza "to go" for the next night's dinner. Both look fantastic if not "spectacular", but can't speak to the quality yet. And probably would not be fair to review "day old" pizza. Service from Nevaeh was great. Atmosphere is a small, casual storefront in a mostly Asian strip center. Even though they have beer and wine on the menu now, I was told you could BYOB for "$1.99 a glass".

Good food, good service. Everyone at the table was happy with what they ordered. Small place but we went a little early and and had a choice of tables.

Perfect first date place!! The food is superb! Everything is extremely well made- sauces, pastas etc. Our server was attentive. Prices are reasonable. Highly recommend!

We were told the food was amazing, but they had never been to the restaurant in person; they had only used DoorDash for 'ToGo" deliveries. We were told the food was always HOT and delicious (except the garlic bread is always stale)! We decided to check it out in person. It's a quaint little place--even a bit cozy! It wasn't busy at all, and we were immediately seated, reviewed the menu and the "daily specials," and were ready to order. The server was kind and took our order... I wanted a glass of wine, but I said I would start with water. The Tour of Italy (daily special) and the Lasagna Bolognese (reg menu)! While we waited, I headed to the restroom--ugh, the RR really needed attention! After I washed my hands, there were no paper towels and nothing to dry my hands with. I walked out with my hands dripping and quickly asked an employee (also a server) for "...paper towels, as there were none in the ladies' room". She grabbed a handful of towels, wadded them up, and handed them to me (I kid you not)! I told her you might want to add some to the RR, and she said ok... but others had the same experience. Back at the table, I was pleasantly surprised to see Garlic Bread and marinara sauce... it was so delicious; the bread was barely warm but still tasty. We gobbled it up! Our food arrived. It was hot and smelled so good. We requested more bread, and it was amazing--hot and fresh--just as it should be! We immediately noticed the portions. The Lasagna ($11.99) portion was generous, but the Tour of Italy ($17.99) was more like an appetizer. It had a quarter portion of Lasagna, a quarter of chicken parm, and a tiny scoop of fettuccini (Not worth $17.99)! The chicken parmesan was tough and tasted old. The Fettucchini was amazingly delicious, and the lasagna was very good! Once the meal was delivered, the server returned only when it was time to deliver the check. In the meantime, I never got to order that wine; our water glasses were empty, and we wanted to order another entre to go, and dessert... It had gotten a little busy, so maybe they were short-handed... we will never know. We will definitely give it another try... Just no "Tour Of Italy"! lol

We are from Oklahoma, but we travel to this area 2-4 times each year. We first tried Amoretto six years ago, and it has been one of our favorites since then. In fact, we often visit the restaurant twice during each trip because we have so many menu items that we love. Everything is delicious and freshly made. The service is always excellent. The pizzas are always a good option, and all of the pasta dishes are great. The fresh, hot bread that they bring to the table is so hard to resist. My favorite meal is the eggplant rollatini. My kids all love the pink sauce on any of the pasta. There are almost too many options because it's so hard to decide what to get. We have recommended Amoretto to anyone we know who will be visiting the Plano area, and our friends have always been very grateful and complimentary about their experiences here.

Omg, this place is literally so good. I went here for the first time ever and loved it. I did go earlier so I probably missed dinner rush, it was about 5-6pm. It was quiet, the service was amazing, and they had calming frank sinatra playing in the background. The food was delicious and the garlic bread knots were also amazing. They actually were Parmesan, garlicky, and buttery. Also the marinara dipping sauce? Amazing. I ordered this Alfredo pesto tortellini, and it was amazing. There's this thing I have that no matter where I eat, I feel sick afterwards, chain, mom and pop, whatever, and I don't feel bad at all. It was so deliciously good and the service was so nice, our server came back and checked on us and was very nice. It is pretty small in there so I wouldn't try to plan a huge party there or something, but it's quite nice. It was just amazing and I highly recommend it, also it was like hella cheap for some Italian I feel, like normally a thing of chicken Alfredo is like $20, yet I think it was around $16. Highly recommend and will definitely be returning.

The fact that this place is nestled in a shopping plaza filled with Asian restaurants and shops along a busy roadway off a major highway is a hidden gem. The server greets your table with the softest, and equally balanced garlic, buttery knots with home made marinara, which you can tell as it doesn't have the strong acidic taste. I got the build your own pizza with pepperoni, mushroom and olives. The crust was perfect, and folded exactly how a NY pizza should. I also got the shrimp genovese. Pasta was cooked to perfection, and sauce was not overly buttery. The accolades on the door is not enough to spotlight how good this place is. Although inside of the restaurant the decor is cliche of your typical small town, Americanized neighborhoods Italian restaurants, but what's hidden in the back is a kitchen straight from Italy. Save your money on going to a European vacation and just stop by this place.

Came in at 4:30p so it wasn't busy. Staff was friendly. Garlic bread was good but didn't care for the marinara that came with it. Slightly too acidic. Pasta dishes were good but nothing special. The favorite out of the dishes was the Alfredo.

Order delivered; manicotti was rubbery either old or not done; pizza was good; stuffed mushrooms decent couldn't taste the crab stuffing

Braided bread to go with the superb meal!! Tortellini with excellent sauce. Can't remember the name of the sauce. A mix of red and white. Really good.

I've gone to this Italian restaurant for takeout ever since it opened. It is my go to Italian restaurant ..great staff. Great food consistency. I would highly recommend Amoretto.

I love me some home cooked Italian food. Tiny little hole in a wall. I like their free breads. Can't go wrong with the pasta with seafood. Their salmon limon with caper is also delicious.

Came in on a Tuesday early evening and the place was empty. Service was fast and the food was amazing. Unfortunately you can only buy wine by the bottle or a glass of house red or white, and they have a couple of standard beers. Star off for that - I expect better wine selections with Italian food. Cannoli was bomb and 3 pieces went fast, but it's not the "real" Italian cannoli with the fruit pieces in it or pistachios on the side - but still so good. The eggplant parm (vegetarian) was delicious- they bake and fry it, not too thick or thin, and I asked for another sauce instead of marinara which was way better. Might be their pink sauce. Took some home since I couldn't finish it all. The Amoretto special was detailed to me to be delicious and finished right away. Perfect amount of food for a hungry person :)

Amazing food and service. They start you with free garlic and parm bread that comes with their red sauce. Wow. Good. I got the cheese tortellini with pink sauce. Added the fried chicken cutlet. Very good and quick.

The bread and marina for the table makes my mouth water for the rest of the meal! Manga!! This is what you call a hidden gem! Like other reviewers said, nothing fancy but the food is fabulous! We've never seen a dish with both Veal AND Shrimp! Hubby loved it. I saw the reviews about the Limone dish and tried the Salmon Limone. Amazing! Bring your own wine and no corkage fee! Oh! the cannoli's are also delicious!

Who would have thought an amazing, affordable Italian restaurant would be located in an Asian shopping strip? Not me! As you walk in, you'll be greeted and told you can sit wherever you'd like. The staff is really friendly, although it doesn't seem like so there are many workers so be patient. We started off with the fried calamari which also came with fried bell peppers and some other fried green. Delicious, slightly a bit saltier than I would like but good portion. They also have the most amazing, soft and fresh garlic knots ever served with marinara sauce that they give to you for free. We ended up ordering two pasta dishes and a medium pizza. Food took a reasonable amount of time to prepare, maybe 15-20 min. My pasta dish was the Tortellini, absolutely delicious and creamy and right portion - I still had left overs. We ordered a medium pizza for god knows what reason because my oh my was it huge! We had a lot to go. The place started filling up towards the end of our meal, but that is always a good sign. Prices here are actually so reasonable, and their menu is incredibly vast as there are so many options to choose from. I can't wait to come back and try more food!

I trusted yelp, but I really didn't like this place. It was very low tier Italian food. Edit - I forgot to add that they didn't even take our drink orders, so service was lacking as well.

Just had an amazing dinner and had to share. We have been by this location hundreds of times and never stopped. I was craving Italian and my husband looked up reviews near us and found this gem. Amoretto Italian Restaurant on Spring Creek/75. It is a small family run place with maybe 15 tables, but don't let the size fool you. The meals come with garlic knots to start. We had Italian sausage with spaghetti, shrimp genovese and chicken tortellini al pesto. The tortellini were little pillows of cheese goodness. You have been warned to save room for dessert! The cheesecake was so rich and drizzled with a raspberry sauce. RUN DONT WALK, and save room for dessert

Absolutely delicious food, great staff, super friendly and always open to offering new suggestions to try!

Absolutely fabulous food! We stopped in on a snowy night, thrilled to find this place open. The bread they bring is spectacular, the calamari was perfectly cooked, the pizza crust was excellent, and the trio plate was some of the best pasta we have ever had. The service was excellent. Our food came quickly. We come to the area every two months, so we will definitely be back!

Walked in here completely clueless on how the service or the food was going to be and walked out super happy with the food and the price and even the service. The pictures online do not do it justice. When we walked in there was no one there, so we got seated very quickly. The restaurant itself is small yet cozy, and the lighting really sets the tone and holds up the standard of an Italian restaurant. The bread and the sauce that they bring you in the beginning is the best piece of bread Ive ever had, I lowkey wanted to take some home. We ordered the Mussels & Clams as an appetizer and yet again they hit the spot with the sauce that they are drenched in. Its so different from the bread sauce from the beginning but it is still so good and creamy, and i even tried it with the bread, omg i was dying on the inside. We next ordered a fettucine carbonara, and a carnivore of love pizza. I personally loved the fettuccine carbonara better than the pizza but my partner absolutely loved both. We ordered a tiramisu to go and that as well was so good. And our waitress was very sweet with us and attentive! I wish I got her name. We're definitely coming back here again!

I ordered from Uber eats and the food was amazing. Even my fountain sprite had great soda/syrup ratio. It definitely would have tasted better at the restaurant. I wouldn't order the garden salad or madera chicken pasta again, but they weren't bad. My pizza was GREAT! Their prices = great deals! Next time, I have to dine in because I think the whole Uber eats experience made the food a little soggy, but I was still impressed.

Always lovely to be here. A small cozy place, but great food and awesome service. I've catered from here a few times and they haven't disappointed at all. Add this one to your list of you haven't been here before.

LOVE THIS PLACE!!!! I have been here hundreds of time and every time the food comes to the table I just dig in so this time I made sure to capture a photo of the amazing food first. All the pastas and pizza here is absolutely amazing, and the complimentary fresh bread is to die for. The staff is also very sweet and will also give amazing suggestions if you are unsure of what to have. Its a small yet cozy restaurant, and definitely a go-to italian place for me.

Beautiful Italian food, great takeout. Ordered delivery and the vodka sauce was savory and filling.

5/5 STARS! From start to finish, our early dinner was superb. We can't wait to return and try more of their delicious offerings. If you're looking for a top-notch Italian dining experience in Plano, look no further than Amoretti Restaurant!

The food was amazing! Reminded me of Italy. It was so good that we ate there 2 nights in a row. And the service was great!

Calzone was not filled with much at all. Mainly bread filled with a small amount of ricotta and mushrooms with lite spinach. Very disappointed

Where to begin? We only happened on this place as it was raining and next door to Tiger Sugar. But man- it is a new regular spot now. The complimentary garlic knots to start were pillow soft and seasoned to perfection even without the delicious marinara. Even with a full dining room, food came reasonably quickly and every dish was as good as the last. The Chicken Marsala had a massive portion of chicken and the signature wine flavor really came through, though it personally could have had a touch more acid and mushrooms. The Scallapini was refreshing with mainly citrus flavors and not overwhelmingly creamy. I would have liked it to be more basil heavy, but they used fresh leaves, so another point for Amoretto. Service a impeccable, constantly checking up and refilling knots and bread. The menu is expansive, so I will make a point to try their pizza next time. I'm gonna gain a lot of weight here.

My-a experience at-a Amoretto was-a a total-a disaster, leaving-a me feeling-a utterly-a let down-a and-a questioning-a my-a choice-a of-a dining destination. From-a the moment-a I-a walked-a through-a the-a door-a, it-a was-a clear-a that-a this-a supposedly-a hip-a Italian-a spot-a had-a missed-a the mark-a entirely. Let's-a talk-a about-a the-a service-a, or-a lack-a thereof. It-a was-a a complete-a snooze fest-a. The-a waitstaff-a seemed-a totally-a checked-a out-a, taking-a their-a sweet time-a to even-a acknowledge-a our-a presence-a. It-a felt-a like-a we-a were-a invisible-a as-a we-a impatiently-a waited-a for-a them-a to take-a our-a orders-a. And-a don't-a get-a me-a started-a on-a their-a lack-a of-a attentiveness-a throughout-a the-a entire-a meal-a. Now-a, onto-a the-a food-a. Talk-a about-a a major-a disappointment-a. The-a pasta-a dishes-a were-a a total-a letdown-a. They-a lacked-a any-a sort-a of-a flavor-a punch-a and-a were-a cooked-a to-a the-a point-a of-a mushiness-a. It-a felt-a like-a they-a were-a just-a going-a through-a the-a motions-a in-a the-a kitchen-a. Plus-a, the-a portion-a sizes-a were-a laughably-a small-a for-a the-a prices-a they-a were-a charging-a. It-a left-a us-a feeling-a ripped-a off-a and-a still-a hungry-a for-a more-a. And-a the-a vibe-a? Ugh-a, don't-a even-a get-a me-a started-a. The-a place-a was-a a complete-a madhouse-a. It-a was-a so-a loud-a, we-a could-a barely-a hear-a ourselves-a think-a, let-a alone-a hold-a a conversation-a. It-a felt-a more-a like-a a chaotic-a nightclub-a than-a an-a Italian-a restaurant-a. And-a the-a tables-a were-a crammed-a in-a so-a tight-a, it-a was-a like-a playing-a a game-a of-a contortion-a to get-a in-a and-a out-a of-a our-a seats-a. All-a in-a all-a, Amoretto was-a a massive-a letdown-a. The-a lackluster-a service-a, mediocre-a food-a, and-a chaotic-a ambiance-a all-a added-a up-a to-a a dining experience-a that-a left-a a bad-a taste-a in-a my-a mouth-a. Save-a yourself-a the-a trouble-a and-a find-a a better-a Italian-a joint-a that-a actually-a knows-a how-a to-a deliver-a on-a flavor-a, atmosphere-a, and-a service-a.

Oh wow. This restaurant tasted like I was in Italy! I had the "sampler" and oh my goodness, it did not disappoint!! Please go see for yourself! YumO

There are not very many restaurants that serve vegetarian pasta. Out of those that do, there aren't many that do it well. Amoretto's linguini pomodoro is simply delightful! It is very flavorful and served in perfect portion. Their bread and marinara sauce is also to die for.

A solid neighborhood Italian restaurant. Nothing fancy, just tasty food. The veal parmesan made for a good dinner.

We just happened to be in plano area and needed a bite to eat. I always search using ratings and reviews. This spot had a 4.6 and great reviews. Atmosphere was nice. Small and quaint. Customer service was friendly. The medium pizza was huge and prices reasonable. Yelp even gave vme 10% off. It was great

Good food. Good service. Reasonably priced. I also like the garlic bread and you can ask for more.

Had a pizza, and i was cooked nicely, the cheese and sauce was delicious. the server was very sweet and we did not wait long for service and our food.Very cute restaurant, would pick over a chain pizza restaurant if im around the area.

Everything about this little place was great the music/ambiance, food and friendly service. We will def be back.

The lasagna is fantastic! So is their house wine! The service is always friendly. I loved it so much I took my whole family.
