Amore Italiano restaurant

I visited Auckland for the first time. I accidentally discovered this restaurant. The food and the atmosphere were on the next level. In six days, we went there twice because it was worth it. Out of 5 stars, they deserve 10.

Absolutely fantastic dining experience at Amore Italiano! nnFrom the moment we arrived, the staff were warm, friendly, and welcoming. The food was outstanding—fresh, authentic Italian flavours, generous portions, and beautifully presented. Every dish was cooked to perfection, and the desserts were the perfect way to finish the meal.nnThe atmosphere was cosy and inviting, making it a great place to enjoy time with family and friends. If you’re looking for delicious Italian food and excellent service in Auckland, I highly recommend Amore Italiano. We’ll definitely be back!

nAn absolute gem tucked away in Hobsonville!nnFrom the moment we walked into Amore Italiano Restaurant, we felt like part of the family. You can instantly tell it’s a family-owned business — warm, welcoming, and full of heart. It’s the kind of place where you’re not just a table number, you’re truly looked after.nnWe started with the calamari on the grill and garlic pizza bread – and when I say 10/10, I mean it from the heart. The calamari was tender and full of flavour, and the garlic bread was perfectly crisp with that melt-in-your-mouth texture. It was the kind of start that makes you excited for what’s coming next.nnFor mains, the beef mince tortellini was absolutely divine — tossed in a creamy white sauce with mushrooms, garlic, and a touch of olive oil, then finished with fresh rocket. Comfort food at its finest. I had the “Agnello” – NZ lamb cutlets with a rich red wine shallot sauce that was so good, I could’ve licked the plate clean. The lamb was cooked to perfection and paired beautifully with seasonal vegetables.nnAnd then dessert… wow. The house-made profiteroles were light and creamy, covered in velvety chocolate. And the tiramisu? So fluffy, so balanced, and clearly made with love.nnEverything about our experience was top notch — the food, the vibe, the genuinely kind people. You don’t just eat here, you feel here. Can’t wait to come back.

Very expensive for what you get. Our home made pizza and roast potatoes taste better for a tiny fraction of the price.nStill tasted good, just not worth it. Service was good though

Came for lunch, good parking spot right outside. Our server was very polite and friendly. We ordered filetto, risotto e fungi, and tagliatelle bolognase. Nice big portions and absolutely tasty! Eye fillet was cooked as requested. For dessert we had cheesecake and profitroles which were nice.nVery nice and clean restaurant and toilets, nice moody ambiance. Definitely will return.
