Nice atmosphere, great food and friendly staff.
Dined for dinner with hubby. Haven't been here for many years, always use to come & have spaghetti meatballs so had to order that again. It was delicious, only improvement for me would be less pasta & more meatballs because I love them. Hubby had veal tortellini & enjoyed it. Service friendly. Picked up a special 30% off food deal when we booked via the fork website.
Definitely a hidden gem in camberwell, authentic pasta - we had the meatball tomato pasta and mushroom cream fettuccine. Fresh pasta was cooked perfectly with just right amount of seasoning. Great service but tiramisu was average
Very romantic and authentic Italian restaurant that we love to enjoy. Cannot beat the service and beautiful food. Perfect for a special occasion or just a night out.

Lovely ambience, with an 80's vibe. Good service lovely food knowledgeable staff helpful and enthusiastic Would recommend it. A must try trattoria that isn't pretentious
A institution and treasure of Camberwell. Perfect for an intimate date, or family dining. We'll run by friendly owners, beautiful hardy Italian cuisine. This affordable restaurant has the best atmosphere in Camberwell Junction hands down. Check it out, try the eye fillet and try the home made pasta's and dessert's.
This is my favourite restaurant in Melbourne, my family and I have been regulars for years. I’m Shocked to see so many negative reviews here. The dim lighting, candles, and vintage posters create a warm, cosy atmosphere, full of character and charm. The steaks, pastas, and chicken dishes are all to die for, especially when topped with their delicious mushroom sauce. It looks like I’m in the minority here but I’m also a fan of their unique take on garlic bread, it’s simple but still incredibly tasty. Their light, creamy passionfruit cheesecake is the perfect desert to top off an excellent meal. The staff are lovely and attentive and are always willing to accommodate special requests.
Amazing service, the gnocchi was handmade and absolutely delicious. We will be back soon.
The Italy experience. This is a straight out trattoria and if you've been to Rome and eaten in one of the many lane ways you'll know what I mean. Busy, casual and cosy in winter. Home made pastas and a very reasonable wine list. We eat from the specials regularly and are never disappointed. If the penne with tuna is on offer grab it.
Simply gorgeous! Great atmosphere, great food and such friendly staff! I have been here on numerous accounts, and can confidently say Amici Trattoria will always be my first option for dining out!
Very friendly owners, and yummy italian food. Come here every time i'm in Camberwell.
Great Risotto. We dined in a group of 9 on Saturday 7th December all the meals came out hot and delicious especially the Pumpkin Risotto. We would definately go again.
I was a bit nervous dining here given the previous reviews. However, this place was highly recommended by a friend. We had seafood spaghetti and spatchcock to share. Serving was very generous, lots of juicy pieces of fresh seafood. Chicken was full of flavour and tender! All cooked to perfection. As we ordered quite early (before 730 pm), food came within 15 mins! We finished the night with tiramisu. Loved it! We will be having our Christmas function here in 4 weeks!
Great food. Great portion sizes you definitely get your money's worth. Staff are friendly and helpful. Only problem is it's quite dark which makes it difficult to read the menu. Apart from the lighting my partner and i loved it and will definitely come back again.
Wonderfully romantic. Love this place, wonderfully romantic, consistently good food. Leave the kids at home it's too dark by candlelight
Gorgeous risotto, veal and osso bucco. Fantastic staff with welcoming nonpretentious ambience
Absolutley fantastic! Genuinely friendly staff and a true fabulous tasting pasta!
Would highly recommend this place to any and all!
Lovely apmosphere and lightning. The girl near the front with a guitar and singing was the perfect finishing touch. Meals were well timed and very tasty. I especially liked the pumpkin soup and the main scallop/ mushroom/ cognac dish.. Was amazingly flavored. Under rated on urban spoon I think.
Cute&cosy atmosphere. The pasta is prepared to order so if you don't like capsicum you can make sure it's not included!!! My favourite is bruchetta, seafood brodetta, &tirimisu.
If you return the staff are sure to recognise you, there is a friendly and welcoming atmosphere and the music sets the ambiance.
It's not pretentious, which is maybe where other reviews have not liked it. Amici is casual dining at its best :)
Italy in camberwell. Been going to this place for years, love it. Staff are always friendly and on the ball, owners are friendly and food fantastic. Food is priced reasonably and there is a relaxed and happy atmosphere. Feel like I'm in Italy every time I go. Definitely recommend it!
Having just moved to the area I wanted to try some of the local restaurants. Amici Trattoria is my new favorite! It's warm and welcoming, the food was delicious traditional Italian and the service was great! The blonde waitress was fabulous and extremely helpful with recommendations. Definitely going to be a regular here!
Very good restaurant amazing service n food I ever had. Like it so much ;)
I have been dining at Amici with my family for years now and love this place. The food is great and the service really friendly. Always made to feel at home.
Lovely for a small function. I held a function in the back room at Amici on Saturday night and can only praise this restaurant. The meals were good and the staff were fantastic. I like the ambience of this place, it's delightful for a low key dinner, and the lighting and music were lovely. It wasn't too loud so we were easily able to make speeches and hear each other during conversation. The best part was that noone pressured us to leave and we were able to sit back and relax until the early hours of the morning. I would definitely recommend Amici.
Veal scallopini and aramis delight. I might be biased with my affection for this restaurant because it's where we used to eat when first dating. it's dark, cosy, over flowing wax in wine bottles on the tables, decrepit italian posters on the walls but it's really a romantic atmosphere for a very straight forward old school restaurant. it's a bit daggy, but that's what i love about it. you can order entree, main, dessert and plenty to drink for about $120 a couple. which in these times, is great value. veal scallopini with garlic sauce and steamed vegetables is served more like home cooking, but it is delicious. we never leave feeling hungry and the panacotta is also yummy. the wine list has plenty to choose from, but if you like a good red, my latest favourite is 2008 aramis shiraz from maclaren vale. heaven. we love going there if it is winter as it's most suited for that season. i feel like i'm in europe when i eat there, but perhaps that's just me being sentimental. the food is homey and delicious.
GREAT FOOD AND SERVICE. My girlfriend and I have now been there several times and love the pasta. we eat out 2-3 times a week and this is certainly a favouite.
this place is perfect for a general outing or maybe something special.
Im sure you wont be dissappointed.
Cheers Jonathan
Lovely ambience. I love the darkened, cosy ambience of this place ... very appropriate for a couply night out. Have been going here for over a decade, unfortunately food quality seems to have slipped. Bruschetta still very nice though.
Well Done Amici Trattoria. Our wine and food group recently visited Amici Trattoria. In our own private function area, we were served a massive entree of pasta Mista with various sauces from creamy bacon to bolognaise and napoli. Mains most of us chose the veal Scaloppini with a creamy spinach sauce, very yummy gelato's to finish. Home cooked style and very generous servings! Service was good! A great night out at a reasonable price! I would go back again
Italy in Melbourne. Very traditional Italian. Fantastic cozy atmosphere, best bruschetta ever. Yummy mains. Really homely meals. Not fine dining but tasty and satisfying. Service usually really good.
Amici Restaurant. I think the restuarant takes some beating! Great variety of food, not a huge number of desserts, but then by thta stage there's not much room!
What i love is the ambience-its really soft, candlelight- great for good conversation or romance. The staff are friendly and helpful and the pricing is reasonable. I love the candle waxed holders, the 80s music-all in all I think its lovely- well done!
Amici trattoria is a romantic Italian restaurant which is lit up mainly by candlelight and has wonderful food. Whether you are looking for a creamy gnocchi or an eye filler cooked to perfection, you will not be disappointed. A great spot for a valentines or anniversary indeed. Great service with a smile.
Amazing candlelight dinner experience with lovely Italian cuisine.
The staff is very friendly a d the food is delicious.
Definitely worth going if you are looking for a hidden gem in the busy city of Melbourne.
Had dinner at Amici over the weekend. The ambience was lovely. We had a booth at the back - perfect location for a good catch-up and uncensored chatter! Service was on point - neither rushed nor forgotten and my dinner was delicious! We were the last ones to leave - and the kind owner/manager did not at any point come to ask us to leave! Definitely recommend for a lovely dinner out!
Had dinner for 4 on a Sunday night. Be prepared to order only 2 courses as all 4 Mains were large, beautifully cooked and tasty. Even complied with a dish not containing garlic ( mine ). Staff were excellent - attentive when required and stayed away when not. Liked the idea of corkage at $ 4.75 per drinker. Am about to book dinner for 14 for early May and and cannot wait .
As usual the best atmosphere and taste! My favorite restaurant, I find here everything you need for a fabulous dinner! Candlelight, soft music with the best taste of food. Thanks Amici, I'll be back soon!
Went to Amici last night as part of a group of 6 people. The atmosphere was nice, candles and all, and the staff were very friendly. They were busy and a group of 9 ordered just before us which meant a longer than usual wait for meals.
However, I'm not going to fault them because of that! It's just one of those things.
The meals were spot on. We started with the Bruschetta which was delicious. I had the Fettuccine Dino and my wife had the chicken with mushrooms. Finished off with the pannacotta and it was all wonderful.
Will be coming back for sure!
