Very nice folks. Even on a super busy Fri & then the next Sat nights. We liked the pizza (cheese & sausage), chicken parm & a couple pasta dishes. We ate in once, had take out twice during our stay in Chelmsford. The eat in was great with efficient, professional server. The take out was fine, except they forgot the dressing for our salad, we were close enough to go back & get it. We tried some canollis. Nice sweet treat, but like a bit more chocolate chips or powdered sugar in mine. (wicked sweet tooth!) Plenty of parking, but hopping on the wkend. read more

Strangely I found this place to be unique and not that bad. The Italian sub I had was flavorful and prepared well. The price was decent and I would recommend it to others. My garden salad was actually very good. For a local lunch spot I think it is perfect. My only gripe is that I think that it could be a bit more picked up. It was after the lunch rush so I give them the benefit of the doubt but it could have been cleaner... read more

Strip Mall Hidden Gem lunch spot with fantastic lunch specials and generous portions. Most "standard" subs come with a can of soda under $7 for weekday lunches. I found the meatballs to be bland but the rest are quite good, especially the Amici (prosciutto, fresh mozzarella, basil and oil) and the veal parm. Pastas are all under $10 and filling; seafoods are surprisingly good for a quick-serve place. Pizzas are well made and cooked perfectly, with a slightly sweet sauce and crispy, flavorful thin crust. Semi-table service. Order at the counter, waitress brings it out to you and buses tables. Can't speak to dinner, but I'm sure it's also very good. read more

I've been living a 5 min walk from this place for two years now but this was the first time I ate there. I ordered take-out but it's nice enough to sit there and eat next time even though it is small. The people at the front were really nice. I told them I lived nearby and was new in town. They greeted me warmly and made some recommendations. I got the stuffed shells with one large meatball. YUM! The ricotta was smooth with flecks of real basil and not too salty. The sauce was nice and thick with a nice balance between salt, herbs, tang and sweetness. The meatball had the perfect texture and tasted great. I appreciated the extra protein. My hubs got chicken parm. The coating was well seasoned and the pasta cooked al dente but the chicken was soggy. Next time I will order the tomato sauce on the side and put it on when I get home. Otherwise, it was a pretty decent chicken parm. We plan on trying the pizza next. read more

I've only eaten here once and the food was good. We had pizza. Both the food and service were good for us. I'd give them 3 1/2 stars if yelp allowed me to give 1/2 stars. The place is small, but we just needed to grab a quick bite to eat. read more

Although food is decent it never fails and the order is prepared incorrectly. Too much focus on FAST versus LISTEN & FOLLOW THROUGH. Brucetta is only good if served with tomatoes and oil on side, otherwise, bread is as soggy as if it were in onion soup. I did ask for it to be separate and they did say sure....but no go, again. Be sure to check before you leave. Bummer loss of $8.95. read more

Haven't been here in years. Went there tonight with the family. The food was absolutely amazing. It's not too often that all 5 people at the table really enjoy their meals at a restaurant at the same time. The portions are generous and delicious. Can't wait to go back! read more

I always loved this restaurant, good food, staff seemed friendly. Until i went there recently for some takeout. I signed my check and gave a $2 tip to bring my total to $22.22, a very easy number to remember. I checked my bank statement today, and the amount is $23.22. I know it is not a huge dollar amount, but being stolen from has completely soured me to this place. I wonder how many other people have been taken for this scam they are running read more

We order from Amici's for our annul resident holiday party and everyone LOVES the food!

I've been going here since I was a kid. The four cheese pizza and meat lovers are to die for. The carbonara is excellent, and the Rhode Island style calamari is perfectly seasoned, with just the right amount of heat. 5/5 all the way around. read more

Prior to finding Amici Trattoria I had never encountered an Italian place where every dish I order is wonderful; this is the place! Every meal I have had here is excellent (including the cannoli!). Portions are large and usually result in leftovers, which is okay by me. The dining area is very small because the front of the restaurant is geared towards take-out but it's fine for casual dining. The staff is friendly and patient (my family has some indecisive orderers) and the prices are very, very reasonable. We stumbled across this place by accident (we were originally supposed to eat somewhere else but had the wrong address) and now I want to go here all the time. read more

YUM! Only tried this place once so far, but based on that experience we will definitely be repeat customers. Since we live around the corner and had heard good things, we decided to grab take out from here one night, and were glad we did. I ordered the Chicken Broccoli and Ziti, which had a delicious garlic butter lemon & white wine sauce; like a Picatta but without capers. The pasta was cooked al dente, and the chicken tasted nice and tender and almost like it was lightly breaded before it was sautéed. My fiancé had Veal Parm which he raved about upon his first bite. We both cleaned the sauce off our plates with the rolls they gave us! We both had enough leftover for lunch for the next day too. I worked in an upscale Italian restaurant for 5 years and have tried my fair share of Italian food from good chefs and bad chefs, so I know good Italian food when I taste it. This is it! read more

Food was just as I remember: good flavor, well seasoned, and the perfect price. The only reason I marked down is because of the way they packed the food. They are not secure containers and one of the dishes leaked all over my car, through the very thin plastic bag. read more

Tortelini Piseli very good

Very good restaurant, ordered take out and was very fast. Got the eggplant parmesan calzone which was amazing and actually had authentic mozzarella cheese that could stretch! Highly recommend this place for eggplant lovers which are hard spots to come by. read more

Not sure why this place has such good reviews, the food is subpar. Ordered dinner for takeout and they forgot an item. Didnt realize it until we got home and called them to let them know and the person on the phone asked if I had a receipt. Why would you ask a customer for a receipt when you never give one out?? Well then they said they would have the missing item ready in 15 minutes. When we went to pick it up, charged another $16 for the item because they said they never entered it the first time..... that's a total of $65 on dinner. They didnt even offer anything for their mistake. Do you think a customer wants to drive 15 minutes home to drive back there for your mistake? Could've have offered a discount or something, instead I get an insincere "sorry" . If you are looking for quick, no flavor Italian food, then this is your place. read more

My favorite restaurant! I have been a customer of Amici Trattoria for the past 10 years, and my food has always been prepared very quickly and always tastes delicious. My favorite items on the menu are the Eggplant Parmesan Calzone, the Vegetarian Calzone, and the Baked Penne (without meat). read more

Ordered the chicken parm sub and mozzarella sticks for takeout. The mozz sticks were still warm when I got home with a decent amount of marinara sauce. Chicken parm was tasty. I'd definitely go back. read more

Went to Amici Trattoria last night as it was 100 degrees out and too hot too cook! The place had the air conditioning blasting, so we were quite comfortable. Dinner rolls were warm and tasty. I had the Linguine Alfredo and added chicken. Hubby had Linguine w/White Clam Sauce. Both were excellent and there were plenty of chopped and whole clams in the clam sauce (something that was lacking at nearby pricey Andiamo's). Flavors were great and very authentic.The portions were big. Plenty left over for lunch the next day. Service was friendly and prompt. The bill only came to a little over $30 (we also had a beer and coke) so the value is awesome. Thanks and will be back again soon! read more

Very yummy fried calamari. The breading was nice and crunchy and they were seasoned well. I also had a salad, nothing special but fresh. I will go back again! read more

I have eaten there 4 times the first three of those were very good, the two young woman waitresses were very good and friendly the older one is not friendly at all seems mean. The last time I ate there was the day before Christmas eve. I ordered the baked ziti which i've had before. The next day Christmas eve I was sick in bed Food poisoning. I don't know what happened but I do not care for OLDER WAITRESS. read more

Love this place! The food is always good and the prices are reasonable! The wine selection is not ideal but for a local place, you can't beat the food! Casual dining as well as pizza and subs. read more

Been out of action for a bit....an overseas vacation and moving into a house. It has been the move, from Dracut to Chelmsford, that brought us to Amici Trattoria. What to do when you've moved and your kitchen is in boxes? Find some take out. Amici's fit the bill. We had a Greek salad to split...very ordinary but lots of feta. I had the eggplant parmigiana. It was tasty but the eggplant was a bit mushy. Still, after a day of schlepping boxes, it fit the bill. My partner had chicken parm which he thought was quite good. Both entrees came with a side of penne in red sauce. The sauce was good but there was not enough! We'd like to give their pizza a try in the future. Overall, Amici's is a 'typical' neighborhood Italian place; fits the bill for the hood but not a place I'd go out of my way to visit. read more

A very nice, very convenient Italian restaurant with a good selection of Italian lunches, dinners and subs. The service is always top notch, even though it's mostly a "seat yourself" venue. read more

I've been working in Chelmsford for 7 years, and Amici's has become one of my favorite places to go for lunch. I've never eaten dinner there, though, so keep in mind that this review is for their lunch only. I usually get the $5.50 sub and a soda deal, which really is a fantastic deal considering that their subs are much higher quality and less expensive than just about any sub shop around. I especially recommend the Chicken Milanese sandwich, although the Buffalo Chicken, Chicken Parm, and Amici's Sandwich are all superb as well. If you're willing to spend a couple more bucks, the pasta is excellent too. The chicken, brocolli, and penne is very good, but my favorite is the tortellini piselli. Next time you're craving a sandwich for lunch and are thinking of going to a sub shop, go here instead - you won't regret it. read more

We went for sandwiches in a Saturday. We ordered at counter and waited about 10 minutes or less. We took subs home and enjoyed. Had an Italian, a buffalo chicken tender and a chicken parm. All were quite good. read more

Love it. Great inexpensive Italian cooking. Recommended for lunch or dinner, they crush everything they do. Subs, pizza, but also Classic Italian meals like Marsala, Parmesan, lasagna, chicken broccoli ziti etc. and they do a really good job at it all! The value at Amici's is off the charts. If I lived near by I would get dinner there at least once a week. read more

My friend turned me on to Amici's a few Saturdays ago after we'd seen a late-afternoon movie up the street. I was a little worried when, at 5:30 on a weekend night, we walked in and we were the only ones sitting down to dine but my concerns were quickly dispelled by the waitperson who, when I told her it was my first time, replied "You're in for a treat!" So the place is short on ambience which is just the way I like it. I don't like paying a premium for someone's idea of fancy decorating. The side salads we both had were fresh and ample. He had a veal dish, I had chicken sautéed in garlic and oil with lemon. It was very good and neither of us could finish the huge portions and asked for doggie bags. I want to go back with my wife and check the place out, again. I think this is one of those "hidden gems". read more

This place has the best buffalo chicken pizza in the area. Not even close! We get pizza once a week and basically tried most of the local shops throughout the last year, and I have found nothing beats Amici's buffalo chicken pizza! read more

Surprised to see such mediocre reviews. I will admit I've only eaten here once, but I went to try it due to rave reviews from a local in Chelmsford. My husband and I loved their red sauce. We got Chicken Parm and Eggplant Parm as take-out. (There were a few small tables in the place, but it's nothing fancy.) Both dishes were excellent. The side of penne was cooked perfectly--so many places overcook the pasta. They sent us away with quite a bit of food, definitely enough for 2 meals each, and included 2 rolls with each order which I thought was a nice touch. I will definitely be going back here. The staff was very friendly too. Two things to note: pretty sure the sign on the door said they were closed on Sundays. Also, didn't noticed any dessert on the take-out menu, but maybe they have something if you dine in. read more

First visit to Amici. Had the Veal Parmesan per Mom's recommendation and it was excellent as was the house Chianti which had a 90 score label. Service from Frank was great and as attentive as possible given the tables were all full and he was a one man show constantly on the run. Kudos to him for keeping the guests happy with beverages, rolls and piping hot food as soon as it came up. Food quality, taste and menu choices bode well for success provided additional table support is provided. Amici did a disservice tonight to both guests and their team member. A bus person or second server would have kept the flow moving and tables turned quicker to seat guests who were waiting for tables because some guests (us included) waited at least 20 minutes or more to get our check and pay. Definitely worth a return visit just don't be in a hurry. read more

Great take out -- Buffalo Chicken Pizza and Pasta chicken florentine. Delicious! Pleasant folks working there! Would recommend! read more

OMG...what can I say other than Wow! This place has dishes that are extremely hard to find in America. Their Amatriciana is every bit as good as anything I've ever had in Italy! Anything they make with gnocchi is going to be awesome as well. This is well worth your trip. Promise. read more

The garlic bread was good. But my pizza was bland - the sauce was watery and the crust was like cardboard. I went to Amici because the line for Bertuccis was too long. Next time I'll go to Papa Ginos instead if Bertucci's is crowded. I can't rate the pasta dishes though the aroma from the kitchen smelled good. read more

I stop by this place for take out after work occasionally. I have to say it's pretty good. It's always the same people working and they're really friendly. I usually get pizza or a sub. It's always been good. The chicken parm sub is excellent. read more

The food here is very good, maybe as good as you can make it. Warm bread was delicious and the meal was hot and fast. The staff was fantastic. They really need to expand the bar area because right now it's 8-10 seats and not situated very well shrinking down to no space at all on one end due to a angled wall. It feels stuffed into the corner. Expand that and it would be a definite top of rotation night out. read more

I ordered the tortellini piselli sans prosciutto as I'm not really keen on eating pork. The lunch portion was a very generous size, but extremely greasy/buttery. The free bread was a nice touch, though. It's close to work so I'll probably be back for lunch. read more

this restaurant happens to be across the street from my gym, so pretty much any gains at the gym are overtaken by dinner here. The food is delicious. great red sauce, pizza is great, all toppings fresh. We recently took advantage of the Tuesday night two-fer: 2 entrees, 2 salads and garlic bread for $25 bux. It was delicious and still plenty hot by the time we got it home. They also included a bag of fresh hot rolls. Still would like to dine-in, so far have only enjoyed take out. They have beer and wine. I find everyone to be very kind. We have lived in the area many years always searching for great pizza and we finally found our go to place!!! read more

Reasonable prices, generous portions, great food. Nice little local place. I ordered the shrimp basilico this past Saturday and it was excellent. Not quite at the level of a Giacomo's but for a local Chelmsford joint it was really impressive. Will be back. read more

Some of the best Italian food that doesn't come out of my kitchen, and even better Marsala than I make. You can eat in or take out - either way the food is delicious and the prices are reasonable. I love the eggplant parmesan. You can even get a nice glass of wine with your dinner. There really is no reason to go anywhere else. read more
