Little Italy has a lot of good Italian food options, and Amicci's is no exception. This place is…read moresuper cozy, dimly lit, and perfect for a romantic date night. My girlfriend and I shared the mozzarella as an appetizer, which were delicious. I do think they could have been heated more on the inside so the cheese was more stringy, but they certainly weren't lacking in flavor, and the marinara dipping sauce was amazing. My entree was the chicken parmigiana, which was also excellent. This also might be random, but I thought the tap water here was excellent. It was super crisp and some of the better water I've had on tap from a restaurant.

I had an opportunity during the week to stop in during lunch as I have had this on my "to go" list…read more I was able to get parking right at the restaurant without an issue; but be mindful this is not possible most days and times. Parking is tight around this area. The restaurant did not have signage viewable directing to the entrance. Entrance is through a terrace area in which there is outdoor seating and great vibing view (on a cooler and better day then this partucular day with temperatures over 100°. Entrance was made at the lower level(bar area) and greetings were made from the bartender. I then walked up the stairs to the hostess desk and was greeted again by the young lady. We were seated in a formal dining area. This is a casual to upscale dining experience. I was dressed not so casual but was not feeling out of place as it was not a lot of people inside. One large seemingly work group dining together. Hostess/waitress placed refreshing cold glasses of water on the table. I needed to wash my hands before my dining experience and meal. I asked the hostess/waitress for the location of restroom. She guided me to such. While walking to the restroom, I was able to see multiple food prep areas (open kitchen stove area, guy in another sections rolling and prepping raw ground meatballs another guy in another area. All food areas seemed neat and clean. Employees also using food prep gloves. I finally got to the restroom. Immaculately clean and smell fresh. The decor was warm and continued the asthetics of the restaurant. When I came back to the table I looked over the simple and minimalist menu. Its not overwhelming with a lot to chose from. The waitress explained the menu and when it came down to the pasta dishes she expressed the size of the half vs full. Her described portion of half was the size of a handful and the full was that of two hand fulls. I chose the bolognese (half), meatballs, and my dining guest chose a caesar salad with grilled chicken added. We decided on no other beverages beyond the water. The food came out quickly. The described size portions were as such. I was thinking the size would be not as small as it was. For a grown man or someone hungry, the half portion will not be filling. The salad came out portioned as the pasta. A handful of caesar with a large uncooked chicken breast. The meatballs (3 total) was a great portion. I found my bolognese and the meatballs to be on the side of a bit salty. My dining guest found the salad to be on the salty side as well. I enjoyed the ambiance and calm dining area but the food did not wow me. From the portions, to the taste and then the price. The caesar salad was $17 and $11 for the chicken breast that was not proportion with the hand full of romaine placed on a plate and uncut was too pricey ($28 total). They charge a 3% facility fee on to the check. Paying $80 for this experience was not justified. I am able to knock this off my list of "to go" I may take another look at coming here again but I for now will not consider anytime soon due to my first experience of the salty food. Other than the taste and portion its not a bad vibing experience.

Out server was super attentive - she dealt with a few clumsy spills, and even gave my Dad a petite birthday treat! Every dish was delicious. The Branzino was perfectly baked, and my favorite star of the night was the fried polenta dish! It had a delicious truffle Parmesan sauce with mushrooms which was to die for! The pesto dishes were made with basil, so no allergies for me! It's always a plus when I can taste something that would normally be made with nuts. Overall, a great time was had. We were seated in high bar chairs under great lighting and in a cozy corner for privacy. Ambiance - 10/10! Looking forward to trying their happy hour soon!

Overall the food was enjoyable and the service was friendly but the wait time will probably deteriorate me from returning.

AMAZING, FANTASTIC & EXQUISITE!!…read more From the outside, I love the big planters (foliage) outside the restaurant, it catches your eye and it's aesthetically pleasing. Upon entering the restaurant, the decor (art) on walls is gorgeous! I love the red velvet like material that is the backing of the seating along the entire wall. I especially loved the dimness of the restaurant and that "real" candies are lit, it gives it a very close-knit intimate type of vibe. I ordered the branzino, it was a nice size, and it was paired with mash potatoes and asparagus of which the fish was placed over top of the mash potatoes and asparagus. The branzino was fresh and the taste was scrumptious. The mussels were in a tomato like wine sauce and it was so flavorful and delectable! My husband ordered the beef ravioli and the ravioli was so fresh and really good. The drinks were really tasty. To finish the night, we shared a cheesecake it was divine. Service was great, the food came out quick and was well-plated, and there is VIP complimentary valet. I loved everything about this restaurant and the experience that we had & we'll definitely be back.

Also ordered a Caesar salad which unfortunately did not come (again, the delivery had other issues so I don't think it was the fault of the restaurant). My bf loved the cheese ravioli. He thought the filling was tasty and enjoyed the sauce. Their red sauce is a more chunky sauce with onions which I did not taste because I'm not a fan, but he would get it again. I'm still looking for a smooth sauce for some chicken parm, but no worries since the menu here has plenty of different sauce options! I enjoyed the chicken francese. The chicken was very tender and it was a generous portion. I felt it could have used a bit more flavor, but the sauce was a nice consistency and the linguine was cooked perfectly. We also enjoyed the complimentary rolls that came with the meal. Overall, I enjoyed this spot and will try more items in the future!

I'm in Baltimore for a few days and my mind starts planning to visit the usual rotating restaurant…read morespots. I did a search on Yelp and found I never been to Dalesios of Little Italy? Dalesios of Little Italy has been open since 1984 and has been serving great Italian dishes in the heart of Baltimore's Little Italy. Walking inside, the restaurant is tastefully decorated. It screams old world, European charm with it's unique art adorning the walls. I'm seated in the first dining room, closest to the front door. There's a bar inside this room which adds to the Italian decor. First time here, I don't know the restaurants portion sizes. Is it family style where one plate can feed a small army? The portion size was perfect. I ordered a nice glass of Italian wine and the Scampi & Crab Alla Sardegna. The pasta dish was amazing. The pasta was cooked perfect al dente and the Scampi & Crab sauce was something unique to Baltimore. It's Crab & Shrimp simmered in a cognac, garlic & tomato cream sauce. All of this goodness is served over linguine. I love Maryland Crabs and to have them topped in a pasta dish makes my heart sing. I highly recommend this dish. My waiter was very informative, he made some great dinner suggestions but I first had to try the Scampi & Crab Alla Sardegna. The next time I come I'm going to order the Lasagna!

I can start with the service. We were quickly seated, the sever didn't introduce himself and we asked for straws for our drinks no less than three times before we were finally given straws. We also asked our server if they did anything special for birthdays, as I was in town for my birthday weekend and he blew us off rather quickly instead of engaging. For food we started with an order of garlic bread and we were quickly underwhelmed, it reminded us of Texas toast out of the freezer section and we didn't finish it. I ordered the chicken parmesan that came with broccoli, I'll start by saying the broccoli was the best thing on the plate. The food was rather bland and I felt like I could have made the same meal by grabbing a jar of marinara in the grocery store aisle. I wish I had a better review, I wanted to love this place but in between the food and service I was underwhelmed.
