Came here to celebrate my birthday with some friends and so glad I did!
The staff were so friendly and accommodating every step of the way. Their outdoor heating was unfortunately not working the day of our but supplied us with blankets and hot water bottles. All my friends loved their food as well. Honestly can't rave about their customer service enough!
Their courtyard for outdoor seating is in the most perfectly quiet little place, gave me Italy vibes, so much character, loved it -my photos did no justice! I can imagine its even more beautiful on a sunny day. I live locally and the experience was good enough for me to say I will definitely be coming back again.
F. B. (.
All perfect folks! Highly recommended! The staff is amazingly friendly and professional, the restaurant itself is very cozy and comfy. Food?? Oh yeah... it's heaven! We're are an Italian couple, so trust us, that a great Italian food. Gennaro, the Chef, is marvellous, his recipes and the quality of ingredients are the very top! Taste the "friarielli", a unique Italian vegetable, Gennaro knows very well how to cook those. Pizza, pasta, any course you order will delight you! Give it a try and you won't regret it ;)

My husband and I had a great Valentine's lunch earlier today. Fantastic food, especially the deserts! We have been coming here for a few years now, and it just gets better and better. We will be coming back again

Lovely food, attentive staff, great lunch, cute courtyard outside. Thoroughly recommend.

We had a great time at Amici!! Beautiful outdoor area with amazing food and drink! We also tried the ice cream with balsamic vinegar for dessert! It doesn’t make sense but it totally works and tastes delicious!! Great hidden spot in Kennington, would highly recommend. We’ll be going back soon for sure!

This place is extremely good! The food is excellent and the staff are very friendly and welcoming. The garden is perfect for summer evening. I found it randomly on Open Table and very happy that I did, I didn't think Kennington and Oval had any decent restaurants at all! Will definitely be coming back.

We went to this restaurant for my husband’s special birthday. I did make an error and thought I had booked a restaurant in Kensington rather than Kennington! However, it was well worth the costly taxi as the food was all freshly cooked and tasted amazing. The service was really personal and we were made to feel like special customers. Jim was a lovely host as well as the other serving staff. The seating was a little bit cafe style outside. We were offered blankets & hot water bottles when it went a bit cooler and they did have patio heaters so we couldn’t complain and had a wonderful evening. Thank you.

Amici has been a family favourite for many years. We recently had our wedding reception there and we couldn't have asked for a better experience! Houman and his team made sure everything went so smoothly. In the run up to the day, Houman was always available for questions and to ensure that every detail was thought of. As always, the food and service were exceptional. The setting of Amici's courtyard was the perfect spot for our small intimate event and so many of our guests commented on both the setting and the quality of the food. We can't thank Houman and the Amici team enough for making our day so special and memorable! We can't wait to visit again and relive the magic of the day!

We had a fantastic experience eating at Amici - making the first time eating out in months very special! All the staff were so friendly and helpful for our order, really checking in that we had the best experience possible, and the food was delicious, catering for both meat eaters and vegans.
There was a miscommunication with one of the orders and they were very apologetic and accomodating to quickly fix this - even giving complementary food whilst waiting. It was great vibes and an amazing garden with heaters so we didn't get too chilly. I'll definitely be visiting again!
K. M.
I'd heard good things about Amici but wow it was brilliant! Beyond (already high) expectations - excellent and friendly service from all of the staff, who really went out of their way to welcome us. Wonderful atmosphere. My boyfriend booked for us to come as a surprise for my birthday, and I look forward to making coming a regular habit - easily the best place in Kennington. Thank you so much Jim!!

New chef and menu - the inside looks beautiful after the recent refurbishment and the food is superb

Very nice place with friendly staff. The range of food might be limited but it’s very tasty. Great coctails as well. As for me the prices are a bit too high with included service.

First meal out of lockdown, indoors, and it was so worth it. The food and the wine recommended was delicious. The staff made a huge effort to make us feel welcome. A firm favourite of Kennington.
C. B.
The setting, the service, the atmosphere and the food were all stellar. Highly recommend the chef special (octopus) and the pizzas and not to be missed. The espresso martini was second to none and the affrogato was delicious. If you want to feel like you're on your holiday in London, then get here now m8!!

We had a lovely first meal out after lockdown here. We booked online but it hadn't gone through and the team still managed to accommodate us (but do call to check!). The owner/manager (although I believe he is the owner's friend?) was welcoming and friendly and the staff all lovely. The food is beautifully presented and delicious too - get the burrata! Would recommend and we will be back.
V. N.
Lovely cosy atmosphere! Friendly joyful staff. Fantastic Mediterranean style courtyard.. I felt like I was in one of the lovely Greek seaside restaurant. I had a delicious Ortolana pizza full filled with a succulent variety of vegetables. Looking forward for coming back there! Excellent place and staff
E. H.
AMAZING! The staff truly went above and beyond, we had lots of moving parts with the booking we made but everything was handled smoothly and perfectly, we truly appreciate everything they did to make our reunion as lovely as possible. The food was delicious and the service was amazing.
W. E.
I came here with my girlfriend to celebrate her birthday. Jim was a fantastic host, who made us feel incredibly welcome. The food was delicious - the burrata was the best we've ever tried - and the wine from Puglia was extraordinary! If you want to go somewhere which has an incredible atmosphere, alongside great food, Amici is the place to go. Looking forward to coming back.

The service was so attentive and the staff are super outgoing which makes you feel like a friend. Food was delicious and white wine nicest bottle, £32 Gavi, knocked our socks off! Wow absolutely primo bottle!. Pasta was fully flavoured, fresh, made with love and not overwhelming on the portion size. Such a perfect balance of all the good stuff. Will defo recommend. Bill was upper midrange so perfect for a date with the girlfriend. #tightnotherner 😉👌🏼😂
P. H.
Such a fantastic experience. Everyone at Amici could not be more welcoming, making you feel like a special guest every time I go. Obviously the food is excellent, and very authentic, but it’s the whole experience of dining with Amici that makes this a place I’ll keep coming back to.
G. S.
Amici restaurant is an hidden gem in Kennington, perfect for italian food passionates. I had the pleasure to enjoy the secret garden and the relaxing atmosphere of the restaurant. I've been there at lunchtime and I had Seafood Linguine, it was superb, an exquisite dish, without doubt the best seafood pasta I've ever had in London. Great selection of wines, good quality of coffee and convenient prices.
The staff is efficient and friendly.
I super suggest Amici restaurant, where I will enjoy an happy hour very soon.
K. O.
We loved our experience at Amici last night - the food was amazing, the staff were incredibly attentive and friendly and the atmosphere was wonderful. It was a very special evening that we would recommend to anyone and we'll definitely be back!
N. B.
The best! The food is delicious (especially love the burrata, the risotto and the creme brulee), the people are wonderful and the surroundings are beautiful. The precautions they have brought in since reopening mean that dining here feels extremely safe as well as relaxing. Can't wait until my next visit!

Had a really great lunch at amici today. Beautiful courtyard garden and delicious food. Staff incredibly friendly and helpful. Will definitely come again and recommend
D. R.
This is such a lovely restaurant. The courtyard is a great place to eat outside the winter months, but the food is really good too. They're also extremely family-friendly; we've brought our two-year-old many times and they are always very accommodating and welcoming. Last time we went I had a steak tartare which was just perfect, followed by a beautiful pizza. The wine list is well-chosen and affordable; they do great cocktails; service is really good too. if you're local, support this place! It's a brilliant asset to the area.
D. G.
This restaurant is my first choice site. Of all restaurants I know I love it most. I always suggests to my friends to go to visit this restaurant. Whenever I feel like having a proper meal, this is the place that comes immediately to my head. outstanding and diverse food and a rich cuisine.helpful staff, and nice atmosphere. Also important, the price is good. I tell about this place with great pleasure.
C. H.
Really great authentic Italian restaurant, hidden in Oval. The owner is front of house and so friendly, excellent service. Hope the boar Ragu gets added back on the menu - my fav.
M. Z.
Absolutely delicious food, super friendly staff, and beautiful environment! I will be returning often and recommend to everyone. On Wednesday evenings the even have unlimited pizza, and the chef, who is lovely is from Naples so you know it's real Italian amazingness!
K. B.
Five star food right in the heart of Kennington! A wonderful selection of Italian dishes with everything made fresh to order. Staff are incredibly friendly and welcoming. The garden is also a wonderful feature for the summertime. We will definitely visit again - especially when their new brunch menu is in effect!
S. R.
Light atmosphere, delicious food and friendly staff. Immediately felt at home in this gorgeous little restaurant. The large windows let in loads of natural light well into the evening, and the view into the courtyard as well as into Kennington is lovely. The service was excellent, with humour and great recommendations. We also loved the authentic food. We had the Bruschetta, Lasagne and the courgette and prawn risotto.
C. J.
Great atmosphere, professional staff and a lovely menu. The food is good and beautifully presented. Very lucky to have this fabulous restaurant in our area.

Relaxed, friendly neighbourhood favourite - good pasta and pizza at reasonable prices. Amici has a lovely courtyard for sunny and civilised brunches and lunches al fresco. A regular and beloved spot for locals.
M. K.
Brilliant experience at Amici! The staff were very welcoming, the atmosphere was cosy and the food was delicious. Will definitely be coming back!

Great place with a lovely back garden! Perfect spot for brunch on a sunny day. Food was lovely and not too pricey. Corona safe service and paperless menus, I was impressed!
f. m.
A wonderful experience. Have eaten here twice now and both times the service has been perfect and the food has been incredible quality. Really highly recommended and thanks again to the owners for the service. Will definitely be coming back and recommending to friends. P.S they make a great bloody mary!
C. H.
Had a delicious dinner of wood fired pizzas and lovely wine! Would highly recommend this cute restaurant for authentic and tasty food and great service.

We had such a lovely meal there last night, delicious pizza (wonderful crust and good selection of toppings), great wine, fantastic service. Good value for money as well. We will be going back :)

Lovely enclosed courtyard setting. Food is ok and could be outstanding, the ambience and staff are so pleasant that it could be a regular date. Sadly they allow smokers to smoke in the dining area, presumably because it’s outside. Really hate that, it felt like we’d been whizzed back in time 20 years to when it was OK to smoke in restaurants. It’s really not!
Thanks for the response. We ate bruschetta and seafood pasta. The bruschetta was really tasty, the seafood pasta very under seasoned with lack of depth in flavour TBH.
In such a small space it’s impossible to put anyone in a ‘no smoking’ area. We felt really sorry for the people living in the surrounding flats with little gardens who have no choice but to breathe in other peoples (your customers) smoke. Why not just ask smokers to go and smoke outside the restaurant environment. Such an antisocial habit, unfortunately smokers rather selfishly never see it that way which is why laws had to be passed to ban smoking from public areas!
R. D.
The most authentic Italian food you will find in London. The added bonus is the beautiful courtyard which is shared with a cute little cafe. The prices are unbeatable and unbelievable! You don't have to second guess that glass of wine, it's almost a free treat with the value. You also get the extra pleasure of a wonderful staff :)
A. S.
Gorgeous spot in Kennington and perfect for drinks with such a stunning area for alfresco dining/drinking. Pasta dishes are small. I had lamb ragu tagliatelle which was really great. Went again and had the octopus ravioli, which was disappointing as had dried and was generally underwhelming. The tuna tartare was also very underwhelming. Pizza or pasta probably your best best and certainly drop in for drinks/nibbles. Food could definitely be better. Some lovely wines though and fantastic staff.

Absolutely banging. Thinking about getting a crab cake to share? Don't. Get two. Each.

Nice pizza, very welcoming staff and great service, had a cesar salad that was quite average though, old greens and quite watery

We had the special 3 course menu which included a £10 discount and a glass of prosecco. It was excellent. We will go back to try other dishes on the menu.

I am so glad that they are open again! The pizza is amazing (especially the ragu pizza) and I love the tiramisu. The courtyard at the back is great for outdoor eating.

Lovely Italian gem in Kennington, my girlfriend and I have been several times and never once disappointed. The staff are also a real highlight, they are attentive and offer useful advice. Great to see this place back open!
R. D.
I have been eating here for years. The service may not be rapid but it is excellent. Quite honestly we have been waiting 40mins for a bottle of wine before, but for some reason you don't mind. The food is great and the courtyard outback is splendid for a summer evening meal.
M. H.
With food made from scratch, this is one of the best Italian restaurants I've eaten in for a very long time. I asked if they would change the ingredients of the bruscetta for me & it was done without fuss. Therer was a group of four & they checkef with one of the others who were eating the same if they would like the same. The food, wine & service were spot on. If I lived in the London area, I would definitely become a fan of Amici
F. H.
We held a celebration lunch at Amici - our family and friends really enjoyed delicious amici food in your beautiful relaxed restaurant. Thank you for looking after us so well on our little girl's special day!

Amazing food and wonderful staff, since the refurb it’s only got better, which is hard to achieve as it was amazing before! My family were welcomed and we had yet another great meal. See you soon guys !
R. B.
Lovely little place (had a real Spanish vibe) and the staff were so nice and welcoming! Only reason it's not 5 stars is the service was slow to start with, but when we pointed this out to the staff they were so quick to make up for it.

A destination restaurant slightly off the beaten track - well worth a visit - the miso cod was out of this world!!! Amazing service al fresco! Loved every moment xxx

No tables at the nearby Indian restaurants on a Saturday night led us to this place. Not sure why it wasn't busier, the staff were lovely and the food was delicious. Very reasonably priced as well, perhaps they have taken the earlier reviews on board. I will certainly go back.

Very enjoyable food. The garlic bread is very moorish in particular. Good friendly service.
J. L.
Nice outside area for the summer, and extremely friendly staff. You are sure to find something on the menu you like, and the quality is quite good as you'd hope as it's not exactly cheap. Nice alternative to the horrible pubs in the area for a quiet drink or glass of wine on a lazy sunday or such.
M. R.
Amazing food and great outdoor courtyard. Really friendly staff and lovely atmosphere.

On a great sunny Sunday like today, this place is a heaven of tranquility. We are just talking and relaxing with a friends in a secluded courtyard, in the middle of London, sharing a red hot chilly pizza from southern Italy and a few glasses of spicy Chianti to match...Where are we? just at Amici Kennington -but don't tell anyone!
R. A.
Amici's is back and the food and service are great. Beautiful courtyard with a safe, buzzy yet relaxed feel. Recommended.

Lovely outdoor courtyard for alfresco dining. Lovely staff, food good standard and reasonably priced. Only thing that let it down was the toilets, ladies out of order and gents didn't flush! Not nice to use a toilet after a man has selfishly missed the pan!!!
