Delicious genuine Mediterranean cuisine, not exclusively Italian, and charming atmosphere. Highly recommended! Just when back for another meal did I realise how well above other well-regarded Italian restaurants this is. You must try!

Great atmosphere and delicious food! It has a great atmosphere and freshly prepared delicious food; I like its relaxedness. It has excellent food and fantastic service! Even though the restaurant was bustling, the service was terrific, and we didn't have to wait too long. We had Calamari Fritti, Gamberoni al vino Bianco and a Basket of ciabatta bread with balsamic vinegar and extra virgin olive oil as a starter, which was too good. I had Orata al forno with super fresh seabream, and my son had Medaglione alla Diana, which was well-cooked and finished the night with special Profiteroles Scuro for dessert. I have no hesitation in giving five stars. I recommend anyone go to Amici. Thank you, the owner, Halil, and the team!

What a find. We had come into Bedford for a quick bite to eat after a hospital Appointment. We aimed For Pizza express but was too busy and after searching on google For places to eat in Bedford Amici came up and it was just across the road. It was fairly busy on arrival around 715. We shared a starter of calamari which was so fresh and delicious I had the crab linguine which was superb so much crab and my husband had the meatballs the flavour was amazing. Our meal was also made extra lovely by not being rushed definitely will be back very reasonable beautiful food and generous portions

Amici is undoubtedly my favorite restaurant, offering an unparalleled dining experience. From the warm ambiance to the impeccable service, every visit is a delight. The menu boasts a diverse array of dishes, each prepared with precision and bursting with flavor. Their commitment to quality ingredients is evident in every bite. Whether you crave pasta or a perfectly cooked steak, Amici consistently delivers the best in taste. Been a constant favourite of mine for the last 12 years!

Excellent evening at Amici. The food was absolutely delicious, presented attractively. There were 6 of us in our party and we were catered for well. The staff were attentive and well informed about their food. The only disappointment was that one of our party (a chef himself) wanted to order the veal, which was the only item not available last night. At least it gives us an opportunity to revisit again soon! Whilst using the facilities (very clean and well stocked with toiletries, hand towels etc) I spotted the rear dining area leading to a tiny and beautifully lit garden, which I would love to eat in next time.
