Amalfi's

It was a nice contrast to go to a fancy place for pizza week. I liked that they gave a mini pizza & not just a slice. It tasted a bit like a frozen cook at home pizza with extra bacon and a bunch of dill dressing on it. The wait was super long from ordering to getting food- like 30-45minutes. Be careful where u sit if u are out at the fire tables, I didn't enjoy being downwind of the gas.

I went there for pizza week! Really great neighborhood and restaurant. It was busy but with 2 people, we were able to sit within a few minutes. Service was good, it was busy so the hostess had to bring us water, and another waitress came to get our order but the main server was really nice. Come early to reserve a table if you have a crowd. It gets busy! Outdoor seating is amazing on nice days.

Good food, liked the outdoor seating with the fire pit. Wait staff on our night did not check on us. It was cold so I wonder if that influenced her lack of attention. We had the pizza which was delicious. Drinks were well poured. Decent price for the quality of food and atmosphere.

Service was excellent, and the food was pretty good. We went there during happy hour and almost failed to get a drink (which is required to get happy hour deals) because the print was so fine and covered by a rubberband on the happy hour menu. Staff is very knowledgeable about the menu, which should be common but I've found it isn't really, any more. Highly recommend the lemon berry mascarpone cake. Was definitely the best thing we ordered.

I've been going to Amalfi's since the mid-70's. The pizza has always been excellent. The atmosphere has been upgraded over the years, to keep up with the gentrification of the neighborhood, but it's still the same great food and outstanding service. Other items on the menu are all wonderful, but the pizza, arguably the best in the Portland metro area, keeps me coming back. There's limited outdoor seating for when the weather permits. The bar is cozy, and the beer selection is good. They're still well connected with their past - the old clock that used to run backwards still hangs in the main eating area, but it's no longer plugged in, likely for reasons of fire safety. You'll never go wrong by visiting Amalfi's. Dinner hours can be pretty busy, and a 30-minute (or more) wait is common. Don't let that deter you. Your tummy will thank you for it.
