Went here for brunch with my gorgeous girlfriend. I called ahead to see if they were busy at all but we managed to get seated with no issues. Our waitress came by and got our drinks. We ordered the finest tap with lemons in it. That came over and we decided to order the fried calamari. It came out fast and it was decent. The breading could have used more salt. They give you a lot for the $14 it costs but got old fast. Served with two sauces we sided with the marinara which was a little too acidic for our liking and the Ginger Soy sauce which did not compliment well in our opinion. If you are big on calamari you won't be disappointed but I'd order a pizza next time. We then ordered our entrees and I got the chicken Milanese sandwich with sweet potato fries and my girlfriend ordered the prosciutto sandwich with the same fries as well. Wish our waitress was more attentive with our drinks since we both ended up having empty glasses and having to ask for more. Our entrees made there way to the table and we dug in. The homemade bread these sandwiches come in are fabulous with a wicked crunch and texture. I definitely liked the prosciutto sandwich better than my Milanese. It offered more flavor which each satisfying bite. The chicken Milanese sandwich had me wanting for more. With the cutlet being rather greasy and thin, it desperately needed something to help lessen the dryness of this meal. Or better yet... have a thicker cut of chicken so there's some flavor and moisture. I would not order it again. Overall the experience was above average for the price of the best. The atmosphere was pleasant although loud and everyone looked like they were enjoying their time dining there. One of the things that annoyed me was when it came to the bill there was a credit card fee for using that over cash. With each entree and item on the menu being expensive as it is I was surprised they are still asking for an extra $2 for using a more convenient and safer method of payment. For a place being this busy and life is coming back to normal I find it unacceptable. I'd stick to Willow and Whisk for brunch. I felt like I was paying more for less at this place. Don't see myself coming here anytime soon. read more

I went around 11:30 for a brunch date to grab some lunch with my boyfriend. They were still offering the breakfast menu but we agreed on lunch. Calamari is one of our favorites so we went for that as an appetizer. The portion size was huge and the Calamari was cooked perfectly, nice and soft but crispy. I was not that impressed with the marinara sauce as an Italian and I thought it was a little on the acidic side but it still complemented well with the calamari. I have had worse sauce so this was manageable and matched better than the ginger soy sauce. I would also have added a little more pepper and salt to the calamari itself. For entrees we each got a sandwich with sweet potato fries and each ate a half of the different sandwiches. We first tried the prosciutto sandwich and were blown away by the fresh crispy ciabatta bread made in house. The sandwich was well built as the acidity of the peppers balanced out the salty prosciutto and stringy fresh mozzarella. We thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience of that sandwich. By that time we dug into the fries and were impressed as well because they had the perfect amount of crispy and chewiness I was looking for in a sweet potato fry but the sea salt was a little overpowering in some bites. We were way to full to eat the other chicken Milanese sandwich but we tried a bite and wasn't as impressed. It was a little on the greasy side and I felt it needed more flavor. Maybe an addition of pesto would help add complexity and moisture to the sandwich. I did like the red onions and the fresh mozzarella and thought the chicken was a little on the dryer side. I am giving them a 3 because while the food did come quickly and was pretty good we had to ask for our waters to be refilled and there was an extra charge when using credit card which most people do these days. The prices seemed to already reflect this as they were slightly high so I saw no reason for an extra charge. While the food was good I didn't think anything was amazing for the prices they were. Overall was a good lunch experience and we were left very full but a little surprised by the price based on what we got. read more

Great place for brunch. We had salmon Benedict, corned beef hash and french toast. And good quality coffee. All made with love. Well priced. Run by very nice family & staff. JS read more

Wow...that was a bad meal. We ordered fig salad and grilled artichoke to start. The figs were as hard as a rock. The "grilled artichokes" were from a can. Really bad, flavorless dishes. We all ordered salads. Mine was the Wedge Salad. There was barely any blue cheese on the plate and the Blue Cheese dressing was a milky liquid with a few Blue Cheese crumbs. Wow...that was bad. They should be embarrassed to send those plates out of the kitchen. Too bad. Was looking forward to a fresh and flavorful salad. Place has been around a long time. Not sure how they stay in business with the quality of food. Won't be going back. read more

We've been here many times but this was the first time I ordered the pizza as an appetizer. All 6 of us tried it and it awesome. The chicken scarpiello is always good and spicy, but next time I'm coming for the pizza again and I'm not sharing!! read more

Cafe Amici. Did this place change hands?? Was a good place at one time. The French Press was served at the table at one time and now we were told by the young inexperienced server that she was not allowed to bring the press to the table. The ice cold dishes that were placed at our table for appetizers were wet and had lint on them (ew). The chicken pot stickers were room temp/cold. The elder female worker who seemed in charge, made us feel that we were lucky to have been seated by her. The male server wasn't happy that we asked about the French Press at the table and then had a staring problem. I don't mind paying $20 for avocado toast but at least ... try to fake that you care about your customer. This is a hospitality business.. I've had a few and would strongly suggest the owners train their employees. The additional 3.5% 'admin' fee on the bill is added by them whether you pay cash or charge.. unless you complain when you are paying cash then they subtract it (felt like a mini-scam). First time I have ever written a review. The place had a good vibe at one time.. sadly it seems over. so many other choices for customers maybe close the doors and start again so you can compete. read more

We came for breakfast and the food, service and and atmosphere was great! Definitely coming back for dinner. Also it's a byob.

We would frequent this restaurant a few times a week. The current staff is extremely difficult & annoying. The food is still good but we won't support any longer. GOOD LUCK ALBERT! read more

This restaurant is a must try! It is small and cozy, perfect for special occasions or just a tasty bite to eat. The food is unbelievably good!! Loved the mushroom truffle pizza and chicken parm. Ordered a fried calamari appetizer too, also delicious. Portions are extremely generous, so come hungry. The service was also very good. Multiple people came around to check on us, and food came out pretty quickly. I will definitely be returning to Cafe Amici...thanks for the awesome experience! read more

Disappointed.... We went there at approximately 1:30 pm on July 5th. Not to busy but needed to wait approximately 20 minutes to be seated. Our server Michelle arrived at our table and took our order. She returned with our drinks. Sometime later the busboy delivered our meal. Our server did not even check on us during our meal, no drink refill was offered. The busboy though was trying his best to stay on top of everything. We did notice the manager setting tables, seating guests, and around the dining room.... This being said, she did not stop by our table or any other table to check on the guests. I do have to say the food was good but after a trip to the restroom and seeing inside the the kitchen, I have my doubts on the food handling practices ( see photo of inside the kitchen and the tub of cut up chicken pieces on the shelf not being refrigerated). After we paid the check and walked right past the manager, not even a Thank you, or a good bye. I try to patronize local businesses, but I think this one will be a hard pass - no thanks Funny more than a month later and the owner writes a response and it is loaded with excuses .... Maybe proper training of the employees you do have would be a good start. I also see other customers have issues and they also received excuses.... Seems like a pattern. read more

Cafe Amici - See chicken on shelf ? - Italian Near Me - Wyckoff, New Jersey

It has been a long time since I last visited Cafe Amici and I know why! Had the pasta special which was shrimp and lobster in a scampi sauce! Well, I got a very oily slimy dish with 4 medium shrimp and no lobster. Complained and was offered a dessert on them! REALLY! An almost $40 dish which cost them about $4! Very disappointing and disappointed in their response! They will not see me again read more

Excellent food and service on Mother's Day ! I loved tagliatelle dish. Mushrooms. Short rib and truffle - excellent never ate something like this before. Mussels , tuna tartare and calamari were delicious appetizers. Carrot cake and triple chocolate cake were a great way to end a delicious dinner. read more

Omg we came here today after reading some of the bad reviews about the service. John was our waiter and he was just a step above fabulous! So attentive and sincerely NICE. Seriously, I just wanted to hand him my wallet when our meal was over and just tell him " take what you want" As far as the food Beef barley soup was good ( did not expect tomatoe base) We also had the fried zucchini and 2 salads. More than enough food! We will be back! read more

Great local restaurant. Food is consistently good. Very noisy though. Very popular local spot

Had a chance to drop in to Cafe Amici this past week while in the area to see a client and we came here for a lunch meeting. Pretty decent American/Italian style resto with good service and tasty food. It's a nice little surprise of a place as it's in the corner of a strip mall area. Simple menu with a diverse selection of salads and entrees. Bright and pleasant decor with a mixed crowd of those on lunch breaks to locals chatting over a meal. The noise level gets a bit loud in here as the tables fill up but not so bad that you can't hear yourself speak. They offer around ten different "signature salads" and all looked pretty solid. I had the Ahi Tuna - Seared ahi tuna, avocado, fresh mango, cherry tomato, mixed greens, wasabi, pickled ginger, soy ginger vinaigrette for $17. Pretty delicious actually and the tuna was seared and crusted just right on the outside. The service was also friendly and attentive. Would definitely come back again if in the area. read more

Over priced for the quality. Ordered a grilled chicken Caesar salad for $17! It was so bland but I ate it anyway. The Thai chicken salad they used to have was amazing; with a spicy sauce and a peanut sauce as well. Prices in the Wyckoff location are pricer than Ho-Ho-Kus. read more

Cafe Amici is a great restaurant to eat lunch & dinner with family & friends. I usually go to Cafe Amici with Grammy and Poppy and order a cheese steak and french fries. (hand cut fries) For dessert I sometimes order cheesecake, chocolate cake or ice cream. My Aunt Lynn & Uncle Artie always work at Cafe Amici. Cafe Amici has been around since 2002 for over 20 years. I love eating at Cafe Amici with Grammy, Poppy, Aunt Lynn, & Uncle Artie!! read more

Delicious food and great service! The zucchini fries, tuna and the chicken palliard are all amazing!

DO NOT GO HERE! Overpriced food that tastes horrible. The side dishes are drowned in oil. The salads have brown lettuce, store bought dressing, and stale croutons. The entrees are not worth half the price. My $25 chicken entree literally had 1 chicken breast and the rest was potatoes and peppers. The icing on the cake was they left out one entree, and yes they charged $25 for it. read more

Went here on a rainy night, walked in and luckily we were seated pretty quik. Service was great and our meals were delicious. Portions a good size, menu has good variety. Ordered a few deserts and they werent so good. Let the server know and she removed them from the bill. read more

Was visiting from out of town, and came here on a Monday night. There was no wait, and we were attended to promptly, the bottles of wine we brought, quickly opened and poured. This place is BYOB. Started w the zucchini strings, which were tasty, but they could've used some kind of dipping sauce or aioli. I added salt to them and squeezed fresh lemon on them, which added some more flavor. I had the turkey burger w sweet potato fries for my dinner, which was delicious. The burger was seasoned so well and the mango chutney on it added the perfect amount of sweetness. I was between this and the short rib burger, which also looked great. My bf, who is from the area and has gone here often, got his usual meal of the taglitelle fungi. I had a bite, and while very rich, was quite delicious. A great meal and a place I would come back the next time I am visiting! read more

Love Cafe Amici! The staff is super friendly and the restaurant is neat, clean, and beautifully decorated. A bit pricy, but large portions. Their Veggie Burger on the 7 grain bread was great the first time I went, but just ok the second. It's super filling and healthy and doesn't make you feel gross! I get it sans chipotle mayo or on the side, but choose sweet potato fries as a side when I want a treat. They are delicious. Usually get that and split it with the Spicy Thai salad with my sister. Amazing and exactly as described. Dressing on the side perfect (see below). Have also tried The Kale salad. I judge my salads on how they taste without dressing, and this wasn't great. With the dressing it was ok, but who knows what's in a creamy dressing :/. All their salads look great, along with the entrees and specials. My cousin loves the Penne Vodka and the Pizza. I will try to branch out next time! read more

Usually a great pick up/take out spot for lunch. Decided to invite my friends to dinner since outdoor dining opened up. Set up reservations for the next day and was looking forward to dinner. We get there and they said it was canceled without letting me know. Extremely disappointed and embarrassed in lack of customer service, not planning on going back and this gave my friends a bad impression, too. read more

We met our friends here for dinner. It's small restaurant with nice atmosphere. They don't take reservations unless it's for 8 or more people. So we put our name down dnd waited in the smallest hallway ever. No place to sit or wait unless you stood outside in the 20 degree weather. We asked one of the girls working if she could open our wine so we can drink while we Waited since this place is a bring your own wine!! No liquor license I Guess, but after a few minutes she came back and says we have ran out of wine glasses, o ok then. After 20 minuets or so we got seated and it took another 20 minutes before a server even came to us, and that is why I took one star off! As for the food we ordered the pasta special, filet mignon, and hanger steaks. For desert we had apple tower and baklava and They were all delicious! We had a great time and great food and great company! Would definitely recommend this place but just take your patience and wine with you! read more

Oh Amici how do I love thee, let me count the ways: 1) Your delicious food 2) Your inviting atmosphere 3) Your friendly waitstaff 4) Your convenient location I can go on and on, but the point is I love Amici, it is definitely one of my favorite restaurants in Northern NJ. A little bit on the pricey side, but you definitely cannot go wrong with Amici. Also, if it's getting later in the evening definitely call ahead because it gets really packed even on week nights when you wouldn't expect it to be. My go to dish for dinner is the chicken milanese and the portobello mushroom sandwich for lunch. I've heard the pizza is very good as well. Waitstaff is always friendly and attentive and the restaurant is always spotless. A definite place to check out if you are in Wyckoff! read more

On a beautiful summer afternoon we decided to dine "al fresco" at Albert's Cafe Amici in Ho-ho-Kus New Jersey, This charming restaurant has been a family favorite for many years. Dining outdoors is always a treat whenever the weather is nearly perfect. We were able to find parking quickly , as well as A table with a great view of the quaint town of Ho-Ho-kus. When we were seated, we had our waiter bring over an order of Fried, Zuccinii which was crisp and very delicious! We were hungry and couldn't resist an The Amici Cheese burger Topped with Swiss cheese, farm fresh lettuce and slices of delightful bacon. We also enjoyed mthe accompanying portion of hand cut French fries! "Amici" is well known for their generously portioned classic salads which we decided to share. We chose a beautiful "Fruits and Goat cheese salad with chicken slices" Our salad arrived in a bountifully filled bowl of mixed greens, walnut crusted goat cheese , apple slices, grapes,cranberries, raspberry crusted walnuts , chicken slices in a delicious house made raspberry vinaigrette Dressing. A visual and taste treat! Cafe Amici is a consistent delight for its high quality food, excellent service and welcoming attitude. Highly recommended for family, friends, and business associates! read more

Humongous portions from the cheeseburger and fries to the pizzas or sandwiches. Homey feel to this cafe which serves excellent lunch options very reasonably priced. Only gripe was when we went, one of my co-workers who is a vegetarian specifically asked if the special quiche was vegetarian and was freaked when he saw bits of chopped ham despite checking with the waitress that it was vegetarian. Turns out the cooks weren't talking to each other to catch this mistake! read more

Went here today for Mother's Day. We were there for the 10:00 brunch seating at 10:00 AM. Our orders were taken at about 10:15. The food did not get to us until 11:15. No one came over to our table to explain; our server did not look in our direction every time she came out of the kitchen; always looked down. When I did finally get her attention she said something about a problem in the kitchen. My dish, which I had previously had and enjoyed was not good today; very overcooked. I hope this was a one off experience, but I probably won't go back to find out. read more
