Amaretto Ristorante and Pizzeria Edgware in Barnet

pizza here has a real Italian taste and staff very friendly!

Two of our party of three had the Scaloppine Amaretto - Veal in cream and mushroom sauce. Although it was well cooked, it lacked flavour, hence the 4* rating, however two of our party of three had the Homemade Zabaglione for dessert, and OMG, there was so much wine in it, we hoped we wouldn' t get stopped for drinking and driving on the way home!. For me it was the best Zabaglione I've ever had, and the portion size was enormous! So many Italian restaurants seemed to have stopped serving this dessert, but we were very pleased that Amaretto has brought it back to the menu. There was a very large choice of dishes on the menu and plenty of vegetarian choices too and the prices are reasonable. We will definitely be back soon!

Very average Italian restaurant in local neighbourhood. Good selection of food options on the menu with vegetarian options. Deep fried mozzarella was soggy and drowning in tomato sauce. Veal escalope was over cooked and tasteless.

We were in this restaurant last night and the food was so delicious! The staff were so friendly, couldn’t do enough for us but the food stole the show, I have been to a few Italian restaurants but this one is up there!

I have been to Amaretto three times now. Once for delicious soup at lunchtime and twice for an evening meal. The food is excellent, well presented and good portions - I couldn't quite finish mine. If you are looking for somewhere good and not too pricey in Edgware keep going to just past Nationwide and opposite Nat West. You can park in some of the side roads before 6.30 and on most roads after. Well worth it.

We used to go to Amaretto all the time and always had a great dinner, we haven’t been in a while, tonight we ordered takeaway and it was absolutely perfect, everything was delicious and the staff could not have been more friendly when I went to pick up. If you are reading this don’t hesitate and order, you won’t be disappointed! Thanks!

Excellent pizzas and the best attention.

Friendly service, reasonable prices and really good food, what more could you want, highly recommended

I had high hopes when ordering from this Italian place, but unfortunately, it was a major disappointment—worse than a standard takeaway. The veggie pizza we ordered was incredibly bland, with barely any toppings. As vegetarians, we were really concerned, as I became ill with stomach cramps, which made me suspect the pizza may have been in contact with meat. It felt similar to a previous experience where I was mistakenly served meat. We certainly won't be ordering from here again, as the whole experience left me feeling unwell and disappointed.

The service and food always 5 star I recommend this restaurant I have been coming here for many years

Overrated and understaff . Came here to celebrate a birthday . I had ordered pasta with prawns and received 1 prawn cropped up and got told I should have asked for king prawns . Firstly if this is what they call prawns - I would say it’s a PRAWN . I got an apology but still have to pay the fully price of pasta with prawns when I received one chopped up overall .

Great tasty food just like the one in Golders and big portions. Had it delivered but the chicken Milanese was still nice and hot when it arrived.

This place is absolutely fantastic! Never been disappointed, I have tried the Pizzas and Pastas and they are all 10/10, nothing to complain about. I usually hate all carbonara but this was phenomenal. Everything you taste is unique and does not taste like anything you have had before. From the sauce, to the meat, to the pasta or pizza the seasoning and taste is mouth watering with so much flavour! Definitely recommend! Amazing for price!

Great little place, v good pizza and lasagne.

Excellent food with plenty of choices for vegetarians, good size portions and above all efficient service.

A friend and I visited for a mid-week snack, having not been for years, (no idea why we stopped going) and we were delighted at the choice. Although they were fairly busy, service was excellent and staff were both attentive and friendly. The menu was comprehensive, with plenty of choice and food was served piping hot, (as it should be) and was both fresh and very tasty, with us having enjoyed a pasta and chicken dish, both Italian classics. Decor was simple and modern, but the restaurant was well lit and spotlessly clean, (always a good sign), while overall pricing was per today's levels, reasonable, but still considered good value for what we enjoyed. If there was one 'negative', (hence, the 4* for 'atmosphere'), this would relate to the acoustics, as with tiled floors and stark walls, it was a little noisy and sometimes difficult to hold a conversation, but this said, I'd far rather visit a busy restaurant full of life, than an empty one with no soul. I can see us going again soon and for anyone yet to visit, I highly recommend that you sample Amaretto, there are very few local Italian restaurants remaining and we're so pleased that we did.

The food was, as usual, absolutely delicious.

Very nice food and great service by the staff. It was a lovely evening, but a quiet restaurant while my group was there. Many thanks again.

For an expensive Italian restaurant, the experience was disappointing. Bella Italia, Prezzo, and Pizza Express are far superior to Amaretto. The ingredients were of poor quality, and the food was well below average. When we informed the waitress about our dissatisfaction, her response was, "That's how we do it here." Needless to say, we won't be coming back!

Food is amazing at Amaretto and the staff always friendly , my favourite dish is their seafood risotto

Please I recommend to not go to this place pleasee. Stay away from here if you are not Italian. Discrimination to the next level. British values is a joke to these guys, no manner to serve customers. Stupid and drunk chef and his waiter. Act like drunk talk like drunk and psychopath which have no idea what going on.

This is our favourite Italian restaurant over all others. The welcome is warm, service outstanding and the food is the best. Prepared with authentic ingredients and with love, generous portions are served piping hot

Highly recommended! Haven't had a pizza like this in a long time. The ingredients really come together—crispy dough, perfectly melted cheese, and the fresh rocket and cured beef on the pizza are a winning combination. I also loved the homemade chili oil. The team is really friendly and engaging, and they took great care of us. Will definitely return again for sure.

Best pizza i’ve ordered in years no grease and taste was 10/10

I come here regularly with my children, I’m a single parent and they always make a fuss of the children and make us feel so welcome. Lovely food and great ambience. A really homely place with authentic food the staff really do make the place what it is. I look forward to returning soon 🙂

Haven't been in a few years but service and food were still very good! The waiter was friendly and polite, and so was the chef who did pop out and asked how everything was! The food was very good, portion size are generous! Two of our party had to take some home! Definitely would come back again!

Avoid ordering from here. Very rude Manager sent burnt food as replacement to be vindictive due to complaining about being sent a meat in sauce item which wasn’t mentioned on menu ingredients. He asked to text him personally card details to refund! Who hired this so-called unprofessional manager. Other unhelpful staff just pass you to other staff.

8 of us ate here today, and they didn’t honour the 20% discount that we booked through the fork, shame on you, also reported on the fork.

Booked a table after seeing the 20% offer on the Fork App. On arrival to the restaurant, waiting staff didn’t appear to have our booking. I explained the booking and the discount. I ordered Pizza Amaretto and my wife chose the Chicken Milanese. Both were just about average, nothing special. I’ve enjoyed far superior/authentic pizzas in the local area. During the meal we spotted a cockroach on the wall next to the table! This was pointed out to the waiting staff and quickly disposed of. Unfortunately, this was a sign of worse to come. When we asked for the bill, I reminded the staff of the Fork discount. This resulted in the manager/chef eventually showing his face from the kitchen. He was in a rage! Shouting and accusing me of lying. He insisted the discount was only at lunchtime. I showed him the email confirming the discount with the booking time. He told me to stop trying to clever and insisted we pay full price, then stormed off. It turns out other customers had also booked with the Fork, and were having the same problem. Eventually the waiter gave us the bill at the correct price. Unfortunately the damage had already been done. Very average food, cockroach on the wall and the rudest manager/chef I’ve ever encountered. This made for an extremely unpleasant evening. We won’t be returning.

Very simple restaurant and decoration when you go inside, but the food is amazing and portions are huge. Their torta de la nona is one of the best I had in an Italian

I sometimes take my parents here for a pizza/pasta lunch. I like the Mafioso or Americana with 'extra chilli'🌶 🌶 🌶 😘🤌

We were 16 ladies and the food was really good and the service was excellent.

Great food freshly cooked accompanied with friendly professional service. Plenty of choice which should satisfy anybody. On street parking only.

Always great pizza - but also extra lovely staff at this branch! We had a girl with shoulder length brown hair serve us who was fantastic.

We love it there. Just visited for our Anniversary! Their food never disappoints!

Lovely varied menu and attentive staff. Shame lunch time service finishes so early.

Simple restaurant but with great food. This is what Italian food is all about.

It was my first visit to this restaurant and found it okay.

Nice food, but why do they add a service charge to the bill?

Really great place, I went there with a large party and we were all treated a magnificent feast and laughs by the owner and his son. The food was authentic Italian Roma style, the service was brilliant. I can't say and shout goodness about this place. It really deserves success. I would highly recommend this place. Well done to the owner and family for looking after all of us.

Very good! I enjoy it the food there!

Really nice Italian restaurant. Enjoyed the food and drinks. Good quality portion sizes and great quality food.

The restaurant is very clean,food is delicious 😋, friendly staff and fair prices.

Very authentic and friendly staff...oh and the food was great too!

The quality of food is guaranteed . It's my place to take first time friends. Love it, as it's local and easy to park most evenings.

Good food and good service, value for money.

Great Sicilian rigatoni and great hospitality by Flurim and his team!

I had a very good time at this restaurant with my friends. The food was tasty and the staff were friendly and polite.

Great place, nice food good service

Very nice restaurant and servers and delicious food, would definitely recommend.

Great pizza and really nice staff.. used to dealing with fussy customers 😉

I found a hair on my dish. Beside that, this is not Italian food.

Just ordered delivery via deliveroo and was really disappointed. My order was basic dish Spaghetti con polpette and Lasagna Verde and I cannot believe this is from an Italian restaurant, I have had better meatball spaghetti and lasagna from any cafe. The spaghetti was soggy and the sauce was tasteless, I think they just poured a can of chopped tomatoes and called it meat sauce. The meat ball is like paste and with lots of chewy bit and cannot stay in one piece. Half of it end up in my bokashi bin for compost. The lasagna was burnt and the meat sauce has no flavour at all, again any local cafe serve a better lasagna. Deliveroo rating is a joke, over 4.5 stars but restaurants can disable review function. I will stick with Uber Eat or Justeat.

Excellent pasta and pizza, with helpful staff. Unfortunate restaurant was quite empty on a Saturday night, but hope it will pickup in due course.

Extremely generous portions. Tad too pricey for the quality.

Very nice meal. It was quite noisy though and my wife found the air conditioning too cold.

the worst service I ever had ... if I can give minus rating and I would love to give... food was tasteless. Staff was rude. Very much disappointed..

Disgusting staff disgusting service horrible food such a waste of time money everything horrible

Good food, good service. Varied menu. The pepper sauce was lovely on their fresh fries.

It was brilliant the staff are amazing and very kind also the food is brilliant I wish I could eat their all the timeeeee

Local favourite with consistently great food.

great service. excellent portions and amazing taste. really enjoyed my night. thank you guys!

Un vero sapore italiano,the best!!!

Great service, great food and extensive menu, and very good with allergies

A great local Italian restaurant. Good food, huge portions, reasonably priced. Highly recommended.

Great service, brilliant food, friendly staff, fantastic value. I can't believe more people don't come here often! Best restaurant in the area

Food is nice. Very quiet....not much atmosphere but owner makes up for it with his brilliant service.

The food is amazing!!! The best Italian!

Great authentic local Italian restaurant, excellent food, friendly staff. Kid friendly too. Helpful waitress, Thanks, see you again soon

Excellent Italian food, extensive menu, nice atmosphere and friendly and helpful staff.

Average food and bad attitude by the restaurant. Customer care is poor.

Pleasant experience, accommodated a party of 15, friendly owner and the food was good, prices also reasonable.

Good sized portions friendly staff and tasty food. The only small thing is that the hard surfaces make the place noisy however it may be better when busier.

Best ever minestrone soup. Wonderful staff

The food is ok rather than fantastic. Ten years ago it was very good

Good service & friendly staff. Will go again

Was excited to order from a Italian place. But it was worse than pizza hut... So bland, hardly anything on top of the pizza. We order vedgy pizza, as we don't eat meat, sadly I'm suspicious they touch meat, as I was sick with tummy cramp, (like when I was given meat before and told it wasn't) no way we are ordering from them again ... Feel rotten and sick :(

Best pasta in town and fresh food

Not like it used to be, meat was chewy and new potatoes were delivered as cut very deeply fried chunks. Will give them a miss for a while

Nice Italian restaurant with very friendly staff. Lots of meat, fish, pizza and pasta to chose from. Have been many times and have never had a problem with the food or anything else. Definitely recommend.

Very nice. Good food and great atmosphere. X

Great service and superb food as always! We love coming here as it's always consistently tasty.

Been visiting for years with friends and family. Always good service and delicious food - good vegetarian options.

Presentable meals but all a bit bland to the taste. Good friendly service. Comfortable though a little bit low rent. Your decision.

We just got a pizza take away. The pizza was very delicious and it was ready super fast. Defenetly going to return again.

V good pizza, good prices, quick service.

The food is very good, the staff friendly and service is exceptional
