I liked this place a lot! The food was delish and the portions were fairly large as well. Went with a high school friend to catch up and we split a salad and a pasta & it was perfect. Their wine selection is vast too! read more

Really enjoyed our meal here in Brooklyn. Bartender was great and let me try a little sample before I ordered a full cocktail of a liquor I was not familiar with. I also loved the chicken parm and the pasta dishes. Highly recommend coming with a big group and sharing dishes! read more

Came here with a friend during dinner service on a weekday. We were greeted immediately by friendly staff! The inside area was empty but the outside was bustling and fun. Lots of big groups and smaller couples surrounding the big tables in the center. It is dark and moody with an uplifting spirit. The food was delicious. I highly recommend prioritizing their pasta dishes and getting a drink for the night. read more

Really more of a 3.5. Made reservations for Ammazzacaffe, because as everyone knows, GL trying to eat at any nyc restaurant during dinner time without a resy. The restaurant is a easy walk from the subway station and it's much bigger than it looks. It extends into a small courtyard, where apparently, they occasionally have live music. As it was quite cold when we came for dinner, we did not sit in the courtyard. But I imagine during warmer times, like the summer, it would be really cute to sit at and have dinner. We got the burrata, the Garganelli and the Ondine. The burrata was pretty good! The pasta in the Garganelli tasted a bit off as though it wasn't fully cooked? It was soft to bit in and then there was a crunchy center. We liked the Ondine but I couldn't really taste the crab in it. I felt like we had higher expectations for the pasta dishes. Staff was excellent. Due to the high ceilings, unfortunately, it does get quite loud when there is a full room. read more

I like the food a lot. The issue is that the host or Mgr guy is always edgy and rude and unwelcoming. I would actually say this makes it a 3-star experience when it could be 5. The bartender is also not very nice. We were there w friends last week who felt similarly. It's a bummer bc space is nice and so is menu but staff is a deterrent. read more

Made a dinner reservation here to celebrate a friend's birthday. Enjoyed the ambiance of the restaurant as it is very family friendly and pleasant. The food was decent but felt a little overpriced for the amount and quality of food. For reference, we ordered the bolognese pasta and pollo and sausage each being a minimum of $30, among a couple others. Definitely very flavorful and fresh though :) topped off dinner with a pannacotta and tiramisu with candles. My only thing was the waiter who seemed as if he was rushing us the entire time. Overall good experience. read more

I was really excited to try this place and even came for my birthday, but unfortunately I was disappointed. I think the move is to maybe come in the spring or summer when it's warmer and sit outside in the back where they have long picnic tables. The pasta just did not do it for me. It honestly was like not good. Kind of dull and flavorless. I mean you can see in my photos. Overpriced for no damn reason. The plating on the pasta dishes is a mess! The bread that came with the meatballs....they must be joking. The inside was smaller than I imagined. Service was ok, nothing extraordinary. Won't be coming back here! read more

An absolute must have real Italian food restaurant. I wanted to eat here for a long while and finally got the time to do so. We either have time and no money or money and no time, talk about Balance!!! The setting and Aura of this place says Italy, Italy, Italy! .... the food is great, the service of the waitresses was excellent as well. Doing a little research on the dishes before coming here is more recommended, since it took me a while to figure out which pasta I was going to have. There is a romantic Aura in the whole restaurant so I will say, is excellent for dates, friends and family. #lifeisgrand read more

Wow! My friends invited me here for dinner, and I'm so glad I was able to make it. The pasta was great! I'm a sucker for anything truffle, so I got the agnolotti. It was really good, but everything my friends ordered and I tried were also really good too (I don't remember exactly what they ordered). I would definitely return, it had such a lovely ambiance. The only thing I didn't love about it was that the indoor seating was pretty small and cramped, and we were three people squished in the corner. It's definitely a great date spot though! And when we went, they had live music, which was lovely. I would definitely come out here again--in fact, I might just try to visit again before the year is over! read more

We had an amazing meal here! Started out with the burrata and tartare which were both delicious! Our pasta dishes were so good. Cooked perfectly Al dente. Service was great, everyone was on top of things. We had to sit inside because of the weather but it was lovely. Very romantic and understated environment. Look forward to coming back and trying other pasta dishes! read more

Date night with the wife. Food and service were amazing . Every dish we had was satisfying .

Italian for "coffee killer", Ammazzacaffè is the sweet amaro everyone has been looking for. Let me tell you, when I say this is the BEST ITALIAN FOOD i've had in the city i'm not exaggerating. The first bite almost made me fall out of my f**king chair that's how good it was. I will definitelyyyy be back again!! my drink (Spill the Tea) had me silly drunk by the end of it. The bartender made it perfectly smooth but very strong, highly recommended for a tough Thursday night at the office or a Friday night date night. The ambiance was a good mix between comfy cute and industrial chic (if you can imagine that). Vibes are immaculate y'all. Spent my 25th birthday here and I can't wait to bring my coworkers here and share my love for this restaurant. read more

Just tried this restaurant for the first time after seeing it on social media. The pasta looked so good so I definitely went with intentions of trying a few! The service and ambiance was amazing. Very cute date spot or dinner with friends. I didn't love the Crudo it was a little fishy but everything else was good. We also got fabulous mocktails!!! read more

food is satisfactory but very pricey. a bit cramped in the restaurant but not TOO loud. pasta was a bit overcooked, at least a bit soft for my liking read more

This place will have you mispronouncing amazing, from the first bite you will mumble "omg this is ammazzaaaaaa!!!" while simultaneously stuffing your mouth and drooling! Towards the end of our NYC trip, my husband and I first ordered takeout from Ammazzacaffe and once we realized how delicious the takeout was we promptly booked a dine-in reservation on our last night. The couple eating next to us commented on how we made the right choice ordering the fish, and boy were they spot on! Everything we drank and ate was perfect. I'm so glad my brother-in-law lives not far from here so I have an excuse to eat here every time I visit! read more

I went on a Sunday at 5:30 and I had reservations but the front was empty and they had jazz there starting at 6/630. It was great. It wasn't too crowded me and my friend had this Sunday special which was delicious and was split between the two of us and we were pretty full. we also got the Yuzu cheesecake which was also pretty good but I would've preferred an Italian cheesecake. I had one aperol spritz during the happy hour. I wish I got another because it's till 6 PM and it's two for one. They have a lovely backyard, didn't get to see much of it though. Definitely recommend this place for delicious authentic Italian food. read more

Everything was great. Especially the food. Not in the category of a "red sauce" place, which I love, but a restaurant where everything appears to be home made, from the olives to the pastas. And well made. read more

The Sunchoke Salad was the best use of sunchokes I've experienced in a dish. Fresh, creative, delicious. The Agnolotti were like puffed up hotel pillows. The black truffle and walnut sauce paired well. We agreed that this dish could have stopped there. Or, the heavy hand of balsamic - Saba or not - could have been scaled back. The Spaghetti with Bottarga was solid. The Agnolotti would still be the re-order. All of the pastas were texturally perfect. The white front of house greeter could use a little more awareness and warmth. We stood five feet away from her as she placed numerous plates in slow-motion on a long empty table by the door, aware of our Asian presence and yet, taking minutes too long for any acknowledgment. Our waitress was wonderful. read more

Let's start with WOW! The pasta dishes here are so amazing and delicious. We each ordered something different and they were great!! We could not have gone wrong with any choice. The flavor was intense, the noodles fresh and al dente and the ingredients worked so well together. We started with a bruschetta appetizer that left us wanting more. I almost wanted to order a second one, if not for the pasta dish already ordered. Service was attentive and excellent with refills on water on a much needed hot day. Will be back when we can! read more

The espresso martini and rosy drink were delicious! We had the burrata to start which was perfect. For entrees we had the reginette and Gargonelli bolognese pasta. Both pastas were really good, however my boyfriend and I both liked the bolognese pasta better. The pastas had a bit of a kick which we loved. Our waiter Josh was friendly and attentive, he invited us back for live jazz nights. Would definitely come back. read more

Great vibes + food, but we were continuously rushed to leave around the 1.5-2 hour mark of our reservation. There was someone asking us every 5 minutes if we were still eating (we clearly were) and whether they could clear our table. I found this incredibly rude, especially because the reservation didn't say anything about a time limit. Food - everything was amazing - Ondine: loved the texture of the bread crumb and the flavor of the crab. the pasta was cooked perfectly al dente (a bit chewier which I love) - Tartare: the umeboshi added a punch of flavor which made it unique - Sunchokes: TIL I love sunchokes. delicious and not heavy at all despite the pesto. read more

Perfect spot for a last minute res in Brooklyn with friends. The ambiance was perfect, the cocktails & wine list hit the spot, and every dish we ordered was 10/10. Service was awesome and it was refreshing to not break the bank for a meal in NYC. If you find yourself in Williamsburg, definitely snag a res at this spot - highly recommend the back patio! read more

The food was delicious. The pasta al dente and the sauce savory and thick. The service was nice and genuine. I had asked for something similar to a spicy margarita but without alcohol and she did not disappoint. Their list of mocktails were a very nice option for someone who doesn't drink. The ambience was so lovely, quaint and somewhat intimate, although i with the tables were a little bit more spaced out. Nevertheless, there was live music with a smooth jazz sound playing. The meals were also not to expensive compared to the quality of the food. I paid less than $150.00 for two people. Even though it's expensive for most people these are my things I like to splurge on. read more

Went a few weeks ago. The bartender was excellent but our server was very mediocre. She did not seem like she wanted to be there at all and it definitely showed. The food was okay overall and the only standouts were the tartare appetizer and the quadrotti. The coppa was very salty and there was no balance between the vinegar and the other flavors. The agnolotti was mid; the balsamic and cheese topping overwhelmed the dish and you could not taste any pesto or truffle. Overall, this place is a cute spot but the food is overpriced in relation to the flavor of the dishes. read more

This place is phenomenal. Everything I ordered tasted AMAZING!!! They gave complimentary bread with olive oil and two olives. I'm generally not a big fan of olives, but the olives here tasted like absolute HEAVEN!! I tasted the olive oil alone as well and you can absolutely tell it was extremely good quality. There was a subtle sweetness to it *drool*. Wow. We asked the waitress if it was possible for another two olives and she was extremely nice to let us have some more. Apparently they also sell a bunch of olives as an off menu appetizer. So the olives already started us off on a good note. For appetizers, we got the calamari and the pancetta. Both were also very delicious. I was very intrigued by how this place used black garlic on the calamari. Went so well together!!! Next came the main. I got the reginette while my friend got the fusilli which was a special. Both were amazing as well!! The pasta was cooked perfectly al dente and the herbs used were definitely fresh and notable. I couldn't pin point what herb was used for the fusilli but it was slightly floral and sweet. Something I don't think I ever tasted before. Seriously delicious. Lastly, for dessert we ordered the buttermilk pannacotta. This also blew my mind. It was just SOOO GOOOOD. My friend and I were in the middle of a conversation and when we took a bite at the same time, we both stopped talking, paused, and then said holy sh*t that's good!! Slightly tart. Perfect level of sweetness. Wow. Just wow. I went on an emotional rollercoaster here. I honestly found their entree the least stunning of the items we tried today, but again still amazing. Waitress was extremely nice. The only criticism I have is that the portions of the pasta were really small so make sure to get some appetizers to compensate. Overall I definitely would love to come back. I've been taking cooking a bit more seriously at home and places like these make me appreciate their food so much more because you can definitely taste the quality behind it all read more

I went here on a date with my boyfriend . First off , the ambiance is nice , dimly lit restaurant. Perfect for intimate dinners and socializing . We got started off with the complimentary bread and olive oil , bread gets 6/10. Not the greatest but also not the worst , nothing fancy . As appetizer, we decided the Lattuga , which was super flavorful and had an amazing inhouse made salad dressing. For entrees we ordered the Agnolotti and the Gemelli Verde. Both dishes were absolutely amazing and super delicious. They were each great in their own way . The Gemelli Verde is definitely a lighter dish , both super good in their own respectives . Would come again for sure , to try tbe other pasta entrees. read more

REAAAAAAL cute, Italian cafe with double the M's, double the Z's and double the F's, real cute. Four A's in it's name meaning 10s, 10s, 10s across the board here! Fresh pasta with interesting flavor profiles, paired with even more interesting, unique cocktails to match. It's a great spot for whatever party you come with. I saw a gay couple with a baby, a family reunion with elderly folks, and a bro hang of 5 dudes. No matter what the occasion, it seems that Ammazza is a local favorite that knows how to dish it up. All in all, loved the ambiance here for our little girl's night out, but will definitely be back for date night as well! read more

First impression after entering the restaurant was not quite pleasant, as we had reservations made for party of 4, the hostess who showed us to our table was nice but then the server whom I asked if we could change the table because it was in a uncomfortable middle spot and there were plenty of other open tables, he did not look pleased to hear our request. While he definitely thought we were walk-ins and did not even bother to ask anything to us and just walked over to manager, he then came to ask us to ask if we had any reservations made. The food was great and ambiance was good too, I wish the server did not had the look of displeased when we made simple request. 3.5 / 5 read more

I love, love, LOVED this spot! The salad is BOMB, its super big though. I had the calamari and shrimp skewers. The calamari one was so good I ordered it again! We split the gnoccheti and the one that starts with an A, I cant remember now. We also had the tiramisu. 3 appetizers, 2 pastas and a dessert between two people was plenty. I would for sure recommend this spot! read more

Service was super on point. Very fast and efficient. Their house red was pretty good considering its house. We sat outside which made the dining experience 10x better. Seems like they put a lot of work into the back yard. Food wasn't exceptional but it was good. We finished basically everything. I would go back! 4.1/5 star experience read more

This pace is a GEM! From the food to the cocktails & amaro selection all the way down to the service, I was thoroughly impressed & excited. Being in the industry I'm always looking forward to finding my new spot & I certainly have found it! I'm an hour away & plan to b where next week! Do not sleep on this place ! read more

I wanted to come to Ammazzacaffe for a while. One of my friend told me that they have a great wine list and authentic Italian food. Last night was a good day to go so because of they have a limit of seats I made a reservation before I go. I have a glass of Toscana Rosso and because it is happy hour I get two for one. That is awesome! I order pasta so I only have Sea Trout Tartare as an appetizer. I love that they make it sour and taste so delicious. Quadrotti and Reginette are very good and perfect cooked pasta. Service is nice and friendly. I enjoy so much of this meal. I will probably come back when the weather is warmer. read more

I came here a little nervous that it would be too good to be true based off what reviews and instagram, but it didn't disappoint. The space is so cute! We had made reservations but decided to sit at the bar to be closer to the live jazz music (which they have every Sunday) and ordered drinks and food with the friendly bartender. I loved my dirty martini and reginette. So so yummy! Can't wait to come back, especially in the summer to check out their open backyard space. read more

I was craving pasta and have been meaning to try this place out for a long time. The photos look amazing so I had to order the Reginette. I also ordered the fusilli to have a balance. The delivery from ubereats was pretty quick. When it arrived, I thought the portions were pretty small. I tried the reginette first and I wasn't blown away. I was hoping for more meat in it too, but only really had like very small pieces. The fusilli wasn't any better. It was pretty bland. I was very underwhelmed by the food and disappointed that I paid $20 for each pasta. read more
