It was okay but there were a lot of technical details that weren’t executed properly. For that price point, I expect all of the technical stuff to be buttoned up. For instance the bruschetta topping was cold—indicating it had been sitting in a refrigerator, instead of freshly prepared. On top of hot toast, it made the texture and flavor bland (tomatoes should never be refrigerated). The lasagna didn’t have enough salt. Limoncello cake was cold and had flaky hard crust on top (could’ve been avoided if fresh or made same day).It’s cool for Placerville but I’ll probably just drive into Sac next time for proper Italian.

As a dual citizen of Italy and America it is so hard to find food places that feel like home and aren’t “Italian American” where it’s nothing but pizza and spaghetti. This food was AMAZING! I can’t wait for my momma to come visit so I can take her here! 10/10 will recommend to anyone! The portions are perfect, I left feeling so full and had to get my cannoli to go.

The closest you will ever get to "authentic" Italian cuisine!! Love this restaurant! It is unlike any other Italian restaurant you will find in this area. The owners are from Rome and everything they do is true to their heritage. They are amazing hosts as well!

Such a cute, sweet, hidden gem of an authentic Italian restaurant amidst downtown Placerville! The owner was the sweetest lady, sharing all her recommendations and so hard working and down to earth. The food was absolutely amazing and so was the wine! We will definitely be returning whenever we're in the area.

My husband and I rarely go out, because we are both decent cooks. We decided to try Amore Mio for our anniversary today, as we have been so busy and just didn't have time to shop and cook anything special.We definitely found special at Amore Mio. The food was excellent. The fried Calamari and zucchini were so delicately coated and the spicy tomato sauce was perfectly paired. My husband had the Cioppino and I had the "grand mother chicken breast," which is similar to chicken parmigiana. I also ordered a side of pasta in a white cream sauce. Everything was incredibly delicious. My husband was able to eat all his Cioppino, but as much as I tried, I was only able to eat about half of my dish. I can't wait to eat my leftovers! We look forward to returning soon. Thank you Simone and Marcos for a lovely evening.

$16.00 for minestrone ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR MIND. I mean it was good and all that but I didn't see any Michlen stars on the door Service was ok and the place has a snooty feel about it I'd rather go to Paisano's in Cameron Park Your gold country gourmet

Little rather dingy hole in the wall with overpriced food, attitude waitress and higher prices. Our of three meals, o e was out of this world (pistachio shrimp pasta), one was ok (pasta del mer) and one was so bland it almost seemed the chef did it in purpose (some rigatoni with ricotta cheese and basically nothing else). The bread is perfection. For some reason the server did not like one of our party and gave her attitude (it was really weird). The pistachio dish is worth the price. The other one was definitely something we should have sent back and risked upsetting the cook. The back room is loud and had to have a conversation. Prob better on the patio. Cool lil hole in the wall.

So sad. So bad. Must have sold since the last time we were there. Previous owners (two women) were obviously italian and took pride in their food. What was served to us tonight was a poor imitation of italian food. Barely edible and service was severely lacking. Wont go back.

Only thing good about this place was the food, All the tables except ours got asked if the food was good, if they needed anything or wanted dessert. The room is over crowded, you sit way too close to people. The bus boy had absolutely no manners at all, said thank you to him several times and he just walked away. I had to ask the person who wasn’t our waitress or bus boy for another iced tea. Will never eat here again. The food was good, but not worth the return.
