Amano - Auckland

I was recommended this restaurant and it exceeded my expectations. The service was excellent and the food was exceptional. I will definitely return in the future.

We booked for a birthday celebration, and the food was super yum. It’s a bit pricy but understandably so you pay for what you get. It was a bit awkward when we arrived as we had booked a table and were kind of left standing there multiple times, but I’d just put that down to the new changes that we have coming into level two. Our waitress was extremely friendly

Between 2 of us, we shared the following:<br/ -Burrata (fantastic and so fresh and flavoured nicely you won't get sick of eating this whole bowl of cheese! <br/ -Mushroom Tagliatelle (also fantastic, fresh egg pasta and the sauce is really yum! <br/ -Carpaccio (I love meat so this was always gonna be great <br/ -roasted kumara as a side (prob over-ordered by having this dish <br/ -dessert were chocolate budino and Panna Cotta (both delicious and the panna Cotta came with this sugared walnut and kiwfruit which complimented the texture of the panna Cotta <br/ Great service, food and atmosphere! (Definitely need to book a week in advance if you want to go on Friday or Saturday night Never having been to Italy myself, I feel that this is as close to having Italian food as I'll get in NZ. As mentioned on their website, they make their pasta fresh daily- and you can taste it! I like the fact that you know how and where the ingredients have been sourced- their menus change depending on what's in season and that's what makes every visit unique too!

The Italian restaurant is lovely, with welcoming service and tasty food. They also have a great variety of cocktails and wine to choose from.

Great service. Delicious food and a wonderful vibe.
