My Grandparents always come to Amore for the fish cakes and pasta dishes at lunch time. They absolutely love it. The friendly owners, the fantastic food and the reasonable prices meaning they can go more often. I love joining them when I'm home. 100% recommend for a great family meal lunch or dinner.

A really good Italian Restaurant very well presented Menu range also. Delightfully run by a family team with a personal touch. Situated by The River with outside seating by the Medieval Bridge I Would recommend it to anyone used to touring England and Europe.

What a lovely place. We booked in advance for a Friday night which I think is probably advisable. Everything about Amore was excellent. The food, the service and the whole experience was top notch. Quality food at reasonable prices and an excellent bottle of wine. If we are in St Ives again then we will definitely go back.

The food is probably the best in St Ives. We have dined here on several occasions and it has always been excellent. They specialise in fish dishes, but not exclusively, so meat lovers and vegetarians would also find a very good meal. The pasta dishes are especially tasty, with well balanced flavours and delicious sauces.

This restaurant is excellent! My wife and I have enjoyed lunch there on several occasions when we've visited St. Ives. Starting with the fresh linen, the pristine table cloths and napkins, the comfortable sitting arrangements and the tasteful decor, you can't help being relaxed and ready for an excellent meal. The menu is varied and certainly not over-priced. The wine list, the discreet attention of staff and the pace of the lunch (not too hurried, just right) were all factors which made our experience most enjoyable. Well done, Amore! We'll be back soon.

Beautiful restaurant down by the river in lovely St Ives. Food was delicious and plentiful and great wines at reasonable prices. Only thing which could have made it better would have been a little Christmas music playing softly in the background but that wouldnt stop me visiting again. Great place, service and menu 👌

Visited for lunch with friends and was at first disappointed as the menu was not as full as we’d seen online, however the food we had was absolutely delicious, good portions, piping hot and clearly home cooked. Crab cakes to start, followed by lasagne and sausage rigatoni with a lovely side salad and finished with the most gorgeous tiramisu. Good friendly service, would highly recommend and would definately visit again without hesitation. No photos as couldn’t wait to get stuck in 😊

Booked for 5 people in the morning for dinner. Arrived and happily greeted and seated. It seems like a converted house - really lovely table and chairs. Very elegant menu.

The food is amazing here, really delicious! Staff are very nice and helpful. The restaurant is clean, and feels cosy due to being divided in to a couple of smaller areas.

We decided to come here for dinner after having lunch last year. I’m not sure why we waited so long as it was lovely. I can’t fault the food at all, our steaks were cooked to perfection! The only reason I didn’t give 5 stars was down to service, we were in a side room and the staff only really came in when they were delivering food. It wouldn’t stop us returning as the food was fabulous.

Although a very busy Saturday evening, the food and service were truly excellent. The calamari starters were succulent and both main courses (steak and liver) superb.

Had a lovely evening at Amore - sat by the quay in the evening sun. The food was absolutely delicious - we had the goat's cheese stuffed aubergine/ spicy sausage to start, followed by chicken marsala & the calves liver. Portion sizes were also very generous & we thought it was excellent value for money. Service was good & staff friendly, only suggestion I'd make is for the cutlery to be brought out before serving the food. All in all, a wonderful meal & a lovely place & we'll look forward to coming back soon!
