Vero Amore

My husband took me here for date night since we had a gift card to try it out and I was blown away by the food as much as the service. One of the bar tenders served us. He was very knowledgeable and courteous. We got a pizza and the cheesy bread app. The drinks (alcoholic) are very well made and balanced according to your taste. Also some of the best tiramisu I’ve had in Tucson.

Must have come on an off day. Everything felt awkward. Server brought out the wrong bottle of wine which they opened before we could tell them. They looked agitated at us for saying we didn’t want that wine. Split the bread appetizer and the cheese wheel pasta with shrimp and they only gave us the bread plates to eat off. I also understand that you can’t mix seafood in the wheel of cheese with the pasta, but not mixing it in the serving plate and just having it in a side dish was weird. Chef making it was also talking to other tables while making it. Also I know live music is loud, but those speakers needed to be turned down if it’s loud inside the enclosed restaurant.

We had the flaming cheese wheel along with a few appetizers and the wood fires cookie. Everything was amazing. The chef came out with the cheese wheel and prepared it at our table. Not only was his food amazing, but he was very friendly and he stopped back by to chat and check on us. This is a hidden gem that you should go visit!

We've been coming for years and while the faces have changed over time, the quality of the food has remained the same. It was my birthday so we had made a dinner reservation for our evening meal to avoid any major disappointments. I don't think a reservation is required, but strongly suggested. As a result we were able to be seated immediately, so no issues there. We shared an order of calamari, which is always been a treat. I prefer it with the marinara sauce Vs. the ranch, but that's me. I've always enjoyed the calamari here because it's one of the few places in town were you can get calamari rings and tentacles mixed. Given all of the numerous menu choices available we opted for individual pizzas. Neither of us really wanted anything heavy so the pizzas were a welcomed choice. I think one of the greatest things l appreciate about this establishment is that if I'm in the mood for shrimp or pasta or pizza is that the kitchen staff seemingly excels at whatever I've elected to order. Our server was named Amelia, she was exceptionally personable, confident and extremely professional. Additionally she proved proficient at her duties. She managed our table needs with great skill and we NEVER needed anything. Amelia was extremely attentive without being remotely intrusive or annoying. Our food seemingly arrived at record speed. We enjoyed the separation of time between the appetizer and the entree, allowing us to never feel rushed. Even though we elected to have pizza for our meals, the pizzas seemed elevated. The meal presentation was aesthetically pleasing and very inviting. Between excessively high cost and severe time limitations, we rarely eat out anymore. All to often contemporary dining out has declined and morphed into just food Vs. an enjoyable dining experience. During this visit we truly felt valued and rewarded and most importantly, welcomed as guest. We had an exceptional evening out together, killer Italian margaritas, tasty flavorful and delicious food and impeccable service. We really felt treated. It was beyond refreshing in the post pandemic world were mediocrity and indifference seems to be the norm. I'd highly recommend this establishment.

Went here for the first time on a recommendation from a local. Wife had the Amore Cobb, and I got the Calzone. It was jam packed on a Thursday night, which we appreciated, since you know that is a good sign. We sat at the bar to watch Leagues Cup soccer and are not picky, but we might not have had a table otherwise. Food came pretty quickly. We ordered in the 33rd minute of the match and were served before halftime. Wife had 0 issues, food tasted fresh and was filling. I have to say the Calzone was a mixed experience. On the menu, there is only one option, the Calzone with Ricotta and Prosciutto. The portion was totally great and the crust was literally perfect. In fact, the first half of the Calzone was epic. But there seemed to be a pocket of Ricotta cheese that exploded onto my plate. I believe that they should have used about 1/2 the Ricotta and added about 1/2 more prosciutto and it would be fine, but I made a mess with the ricotta. I would love to try the Calzone with regular pizza sauce, mozzarella, sausage, mushroom, etc because like I said the crust is perfect! Dessert was Tiramisu. It was a smaller -ish portion for $8, but it made up for it with an amazing flavor. Top notch Dessert and we would order again. Total cost for two with soda was $56.52 before tip. That is to be expected though, we were pretty happy overall. A note about the service, everyone was really nice to us and the bartender was total sweetheart.

We went for date night and had a reservation for 6:45pm We were a bit late and the staff were understanding. They sat us pretty close to another couple and it made me a bit uncomfortable. We had the bruschetta, toasted ravioli, & Caesar salad. They all tasted like they were left out for a while. It was hard to chew the bread on the Caesar salad and the cheese on the bruschetta had fused everything together. The toasted ravioli were really good tho and you could tell those were fresh. We left early because it was too loud. You could tell it was busy so I recommend you try it before you write them off.
