    tiramisú
    Vanessa T.

    I've had Amano saved in my back pocket for a while now for an easy date night, given it's convenient location on the North side. Finally, tonight we were indecisive and decided to give it a try. The location isn't the prettiest from the outside. It's in a weird, gas station-adjacent strip mall. Inside is a surprisingly cozy, eclectic, and casual Italian diner. We made use of the paper mats and colored pencils. I see now why they recommend reservations; Amano is very intimate. We shared the Pasta Pie-zoni, made with the Cindy and the carbonara. The pizza was decent, although I hoped for a more pungent flavor from the gorgonzola and pesto. I couldn't even taste them over the overpowering sweetness from the balsamic glaze and dates. The pasta filled calzone portion was fun. Very salty, soft pasta (not al dente), and dough crusted with parmesean. The highlight was definitely the crust. Not too thick nor too thin, with good flavor and marinara for dipping. The pie-zoni is great for a family of 3 or two very hungry adults. The tiramisu was pretty disappointing, and I'd just skip dessert here altogether. Amano's serves novelty dishes rather than authentic or classy Italian. The pasta filled calzone held it's form pretty well, and the famous Fat Baby's looked like they did too. Creative dishes, kind service, and cozy feel. Great spot for a fun date, and very kid-friendly!

    If you're visiting Las Vegas this is a must try! These Fat Baby's are TikTok viral and they taste amazing! I love the presentation and how unique of an item these are. There's so many different flavors and vegetarian options it's great for everyone. This hidden gem is great to get outside of the Strip and enjoy some delicious Italian food. This is a super cute mom and pop shop style restaurant with a smaller interior but super cozy for a good meal!

    Calzone with 1 slice missing. HUGE!!

    We came on a Wed. night. Not crowded but that's good because the dining room is small. What's NOT small is the portion sizes. It's not family style but could absolutely be a shareable type of situation. Service was fast and friendly.

    Fantastic! Ordering carry out was super easy and they do an amazing job of packaging to-go orders. The fettuccine carbonara fat baby was separated into multiple containers of bread, pasta (with sauce on it to keep it from being dry), and extra sauce with cheese to pour over and recreate the full experience. It was so good with just the right amount of seasoning and garlic. The pizza was great and "foldable" so it reminded me of pizza in New York. The garlic bread was also tasty. Josh took my order over the phone and also helped me when I was picking it up. He was fantastic! This was the perfect Saturday night option when I wanted great food via carry out. Amano was a win!

    Found this online of must-do in vegas. I can say it was as advertised Great food. Pizza was great. Bread for both were excellent. Definitely should try. Pricey but definitely worth it.

    This has consistently been our fav pizza place since moving to Vegas 4 years ago. The staff is so kind and attentive. The food is consistently delicious. My go to orders have been cheese/ half pepperoni Pizza, Caesar salad, chicken piccata with angel hair, carbonara (sub angel hair). The vibes are neighborhood pizza shop that cooks with lots of heart and uses fresh ingredients. From what i understand everything is made from scratch including their Caesar dressing

    "How come no one ever invites ravioli to a party? He's a little square." Amano hit the spot! I was craving Italian food and passed by all the big chain restaurants to come here , best decision I made all week. Whether you're in the mood for a casual dinner or ready to challenge yourself with a "fat baby" (trust me, it's worth it), Amano delivers quality you just can't find anywhere else. You don't need TikTok, Instagram, or any influencer to tell you this place is legit. Just show up hungry and leave satisfied . Amano does the rest. Authentic flavors, great vibes, good service and food that speaks for itself. Mangia!

    A Mano, Las Vegas This place may be tiny, but it packs a serious punch. Come hungry, no, come with a BIG appetite because the portions and flavors do not hold back. A Mano is an intimate, handmade pasta spot that has quickly built a loyal following for doing one thing exceptionally well: fresh, comforting Italian food made by hand (which is exactly what "a mano" means). With only about 7-8 tables, it feels more like a hidden neighborhood gem than a restaurant, and they also offer takeout if you can't snag a seat. Pro tip: try to visit outside of peak hours to make getting a table easier. The staff is absolutely lovely, warm, attentive, and genuinely friendly. From the moment you walk in, the simple, homey décor makes you feel like you've stepped into a Nonna's kitchen, where everything is made with love and zero shortcuts. They serve pizzas and pastas, but if you trust me on one thing, order the Fat Baby. This is the real good, gooey stuff. A sourdough cone wrapped around your choice of pasta, with the sauce and noodles cascading from the top... indulgent, messy, and completely worth it. Honestly, that dish alone is all you need. Spectacular. I've been here twice already and will absolutely be back. Highly recommend.

    The food, staff and ambience was great. I can't wait to return again on my next visit.

    This place has become a must when visiting Vegas! Tried the Cindy pizza and I'll begin putting dates on future home made pizzas- delicious with a nice crispy crust. We had the fat baby fettuccine Alfredo, as tempted as we were to substitute the garlic cone with a slice a pizza, glad we didn't. Garlic cone is freshly baked, no additional indulgence needed Friendly attentive staff. It was our first stop as we arrived from LA.

    I'm recommending only because the food was not bad. For a local Italian place it was ok. They could expand on the seafood on the menu as they only have Clams and shrimp. Shrimp is farm raised so I didn't eat but my dude did. I guess folks really like those cone pasta dishes which seemed to be popular. I had the baked ziti it was ok, I've had better. Thank goodness i asked for meat sauce and sausage which was late getting out to me. Place is intimate in a strip mall wasn't a problem. Service was good she was by herself place got crowded but she did well. I will come back to have the pizza which folks were ordering and it looked great.

    Brittany C.

    The workers were very friendly. The place is a bit small so I encourage you to make an advanced reservation on Yelp. Ambiance was welcoming and with a positive vibe. Food has a great presentation, but lacks flavor or any spice in my opinion. The Fat Baby's are beautiful, however mine was falling over when it arrived so not entirely practical. Although Instagrammers love it. A fun outing but for the price, location (not centrally located), and taste, I'd skip it next time around.

    Ask the Community - Amano

    Are any of the fat babies gluten-free?

    No they are not. I'm not sure if they offer that option but they did not tell us it was an option.

    Do you serve beer and wine?

    They do not.

    Is it recommended for vegetarians, not vegan?

    Yes! They have vegetarian options!

    Do you serve beer and wine?

    Can you order a fat baby for pickup?

    They offer Fat Baby Kits where you can assemble the whole thing at home, but they won't wrap up a whole Fat Baby to go since it'll look like a mess when you get home.

    Can you show up without a reservation?

    It's better to make reservations since they only have a few tables and get pretty busy

    Do they accept reservation for one?

    Yes!

    Are you able to accommodate a big group of 25 people ‽?

    No restaurant max is 15

    Does this restaurant serve alcohol?

    No alcohol is served. They have Rosemary Lemonade, Pellegrino, Italian Cream Soda, and Soft Drinks.

    Can you reserve a table?

    Yes. It cost though.

    Do they deliver to the strip?

    I live 5 miles away in the Nortwest and they didn't deliver to me. I had to go pick up. It was worth it though!

    What's the price for the Fat Baby? Is it the same as the pastas or the sandwiches?

    The price of the Fat Baby depends on the cost of the protein you are including.

    What's the price for the fat baby alfredo?

    $15.95

    I see people reviewing/photographing the Fat Baby but it doesn't appear on their online menu. Is it a "hidden item" or a specialty that is only available some of the time?

    It's only for dine in only

    I saw on Facebook that this restaurant serves the "fat baby". A sub stuffed with pasta. But I don't see it on the menu. Are they currently serving it?

    Yes..., they were a week-and-a-half ago when I was there. It is not on the menu but they mentioned it and any of their regular sandwiches could be made as a "Fat Baby".

    Do they serve wine?

    No, but you can B.Y.O.B.

    Will I be able to order pasta around 1pm? I noticed it's on the dinner menu and I know most places won't serve the entree if it's on the dinner menu.

    Yes we serve the full menu all day;)

    Can we get a picture of the gluten free pizza?

    See their website.

    Looking forward to trying your NY Italian food....can smell it from Summerlin...is it the pizza?

    Yes, that amazing smell is pizza and Italian food. Lol We serve it all;)

    Any gluten free menu items?

    Yes we offer a gluten free pizza

We also ordered the antipasto plate, this was also tasty, but they are using the wrong prosciutto, it was too dry. for desert I had the chocolate cake, very rich and decadent, but I don't think it was made in house? The ambiance of the restaurant was old school Vegas, they had a guy playing piano and another guy playing drums, nothing obnoxious, so it was fine. But! I know I'm gonna get slammed here but when I'm spending this kind of money for an upscale dinner, I DONT want to hear screaming kids, i'm sorry but take your kids to olive garden, not a place like this.
