Tried Due Amici on a Saturday as it was one of the few places in town we could find with weekend happy hour specials. The deals are pretty good -- half off small plates and pizzas, as well as glasses of wine, beer and mules (vodka, gin, rum, whiskey or tequila).
We initially made a reservation to guarantee a table, but migrated to the bar when we arrived as it seemed more lively and there was a basketball game on TV. They have 3 separate seating areas and the space is pretty big.
I started with a Kentucky mule. The regular Kentucky mules come with Bulleit bourbon, but they use Jim Beam during happy hour. Our bartender, Dennis, was awesome and the service was prompt. They don't have any draft beer -- only bottles.
We weren't that hungry, so decided to try the bruschetta appetizer as it sounded light. Unfortunately, it wasn't very good and I wish we would've tried something else. The crustini crackers were too small compared to the large mozzarella slices, the tomatoes were mushy, and the balsamic (which I was looking forward to the most) was drizzled over the crackers which absorbed it all and covered up the taste -- the balsamic would have been better drizzled over the mozzarella in my opinion. Had it not been half off for happy hour, I would've been extremely disappointed had I paid the full $15 for it.
Despite the disappointing bruschetta, we did enjoy the vibes, and like I mentioned our bartender was awesome. I would be willing to give Due Amici another shot just based on that. And if I had to do it over again, I would order one of the pizzas.
