Amore Mio in Cotswold - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Incredible food and outstanding service

Felt like they wanted to close the restaurant eventhough it was written that they close an hour and half after we arrived. Food was good.

Had a great meal here. Service was faultless. A few revues have mentioned cost. £20 for pizza may seem strong, but quality was ace and I’m guessing rent in Cirencester is not cheap! No point being the cheapest bust restaurant in town! What was bonkers though was £7 odd for literally 1-tomato sliced on a plate with 4-rings of onion (tomato and onion salad?!). That was a step too far. My fault for not raising it with the staff while there. All in all though, a nice evening and we will return - we’ll just skip that ‘salad’!

Friendly staff and amazing food! This restaurant is a must go! We had amore mio special and meat feast pizzas, delicious! The chocolate lava cake is not to miss. Definitely recommend it!

Very warm welcome, delicious food!

Incredible flavours in very authentic dishes served by friendly attentive staff. Highly recommended.

It was good, fell short of great. It was an evening meal from 7 pm. Good things: - food was good, not exceptional - service was fairly prompt, and our experience was polite enough, although we did overhear a waiter greet arriving guests with 'you didn't pay the deposit', which I think was pretty rude. - Complimentary crisps, although these should be olives given its an Italian. Not so good: - a fairly small restaurant inside with too many tables, with poor acoustics it was fairly loud with everyone chatting away. - the house wine didn't even come from a bottle which was a surprise given its price point. - some customers made to sit outside with zero atmosphere, it was a little chilly and no heaters are set up, id have walked away if I was told to sit outside. - quick enough to add high charges for things like extra cheese, etc, but didn't offer any savings to remove cheese from the meal, I find this hypocritical. - 10% added service charge is a bit of a joke in the UK, if this is compulsory, then just add it to the price of the food and drink. Overall, this isn't a cheap restaurant, and for the price point, you'd expect more and better. Reduce the prices by at least 25%, and you'd be getting what you paid for, just about. Or reduce the dining capacity and provide a better dining experience for this price point, you can't have it both ways.

Superb food and brilliant service. We had a lovely dinner here for our wedding anniversary this week. We ate risotto and pizza (also starters and dessert), all delicious. The staff here really do care, and the result is very happy diners.

Excellent cosy Restaurant........

Lovely welcoming restaurant, with amazing and delicious Italian food 🤤

Wonderful. Delicious food and great service. Highly recommended but you must book.

Fantastic food, amazing service and great atmosphere! It’s just like being in Italy. If you’re in the area it is well worth a visit.

The pizza was objectively good, cooked and seasoned well. Good service and nice atmosphere. A fairly Italian and varied menu. The only flaw is the price... decidedly high. 2 pizzas, water and a garlic bread, more than £60 seems excessive to me..

Spot on! Didn’t even need to put extra black pepper or Parmesan on my pasta. Each of us thought our meal was delicious. 2 pizzas, 2 pastas. No faults. Great service. Have been before. Will go again.

We have been a few times and we have always had a great meal and excellent service. The quality of the food is excellent and I’ve have no hesitation in recommending this restaurant. I like the fact that it isn’t part of a chain. You do need to book to avoid disappointment.

Probably, the British like this, they give the average customer what they like in a clean simple seemingly affordable way. On Tripadvisor it seems the best Italian resto in Cirencester, even the best resto overall. And it shall be said that my veg family liked their veg starter and pizza and pasta ok. But. Our explicit interest in trying one of the nebbiolo bottles from the broad range of wines made the waiter bring on the "expert" wine waiter, who after a strange discussion talked us into an interesting Italian appasionato Zinfandel. Hmm. Big disappointment when the beef came on. Quite normal in UK. Little interest or knowledge in wines, wine glasses, or pairing. Anyway: I had the minced crab. Lost the original fresh salty crab taste, and little taste added. Big and boring . Next: The manzo beef. Correctly medium rare, but thin and rubbery. 30 GBP. 5 GBP to have tge strange white peppercorn sauce. 7 GBP to have potatoes. Resto doesn't allow children to enter after 6 pm, that's ok, but the sound level is still annoying due to a small nakedly walled and roofed room, and flowers are artificial, making it far from the cosy Italian you had hoped for. Opens late, closes early, allows you 1 h40min at the table. Nope. Lots to improve here in my view. Better more genuine cheaper rougher Italian restos just out on the street nearby.

The cleanliness is impressive. The staff are lovely and friendly and the food is delicious. Highly recommended. We will definitely return the next time we visit Cirencester.

Nice and chilled, sat outside and food was excellent.

Always amazing food, good staff. I can't help noticing prices have gone up a bit recently, especially for the drinks, I suspect it's due to the new custom arrangements.

Very friendly service and amazing Pizza and Pasta

Incredible meal. Extensive menu and all items (pizza, pasta, meats, salads etc) were delicious. GF was very well catered for!

Wonderful atmosphere, food and service!

Great food, everything our table had was excellent and well presented.

What a lovely restaurant! We booked a table for 7 at 1400, one of the party were running late but this was no problem. The food was great, the staff were fantastic and even though we stayed a little long, we never felt the staff were rushing us to finish. Can definitely recommend this place, the risotto and pizzas were very good and prices were reasonable. I recommend anyone go to this place if they want good italian food. If you've never tried it, please do, you won't be disappointed! 10 out of 10!

Amazing food and excellent service. Best Italian restaurant in the region. Highly recommend!

Food is great and delicious! Until the end … the staff suddenly say that we need to leave the table in 4 mins (7:26) due to a reservation set on 7:30 … with no prior notice. We have to rush through our dessert and finish it in 4 mins ….. and one of the staff stood in front of the table rushing us to leave with a cloth on his hand …. So awkward and they embarrassed the customer … not considering others feeling … It was so nice at the beginning…

Great food, Great service will be back

Very nice atmosphere friendly service. Food was very good

Ate very good pizza, drank good wine at reasonable prices.

Our pasta dishes were delicious and service excellent

The food was absolutely divine! Wonderful service as well. Highly recommended.

Fantastic restaurant with friendly service. The food is fresh and delicious and we alway have a lovely time.

Great food and service. Lovely care and attention to detail. Super welcome. All in all great hospitality.

Wow! Transported to Italy. 🍝 We were really lucky to walk-in and be seated with a warm welcome on a busy Sunday evening. We had bruschetta to share as a starter which was tasty and fresh. For main we had spaghetti carbonara and chorizo penne, both divine. Tiramisu and pistachio cannoli for dessert - delicious! Overall a lovely experience, the team were really friendly too. Thanks again!

Absolutely delicious meal! Authentic food and fabulous service, recommend!

Wonderful meal, great service and great flexibility (despite being fully booked, they made it work), when we had to change the reservation time last-minute.. highly recommend this restaurant.

Lovely lunch. Will def go again

Good service and very nice food. It was our first time there. We would definitely go again

Fantastic food, excellent wine and superb service. Our first visit - it won’t be our last! Highly recommend

Small, fine Italian restaurant.

Really great, tasty pizzas on a super thin crust.

Very nice pizza and other vegetarian dishes. We were lucky to get a table without booking. Lovely service.

Please , let people know that after 6pm you can not accept children in the RESTAURANT!! Ridiculous!

A lovely evening. Delicious food, good service and pleasant surroundings. Our first visit - it won't be our last. Thank you for the birthday candle!

Wonderful evening meal, food was excellent paired with friendly service and a smile. Would definitely come back.

Lovely fresh ingredients throughout, we had the caprese and olives to start, the amore mio pizza to share for mains and it was one of the best we have had in a while. Get the chilli oil too nice and spicy 🔥

Excellent as always at amore mio. Will be back!

Tasty food, fantastic service from very friendly waiters. Favourite Italian restaurant in Cirencester!

Great tasting food and friendly attentive staff. We would definitely eat here again if in Cirencester.

What a wonderful dining experience in Cirencester. Scrumptious food, wonderful people and top service.

Our second visit to this lovely restaurant. Great food, attentive and friendly staff, and a relaxed atmosphere. Thank you!

Thank you for a lovely meal and for making our evening so enjoyable.

Absolutely lovely place, we are not from the area, walking about town and decided to book in for a dinner. Small but lovely, very very busy but staff so friendly , despite everything! Unfortunately I could not have dessert as I was full , my Parma ham pizza was absolutely delicious but I had very nice Amaro ! Highly recommend

Fantastic food, great service and a relaxing atmosphere

Always a pleasure. Great food and atmosphere. Favourite place.

One of the finest Italian meals we have had. Nice locale and friendly, efficient service.

My husband and I eat here regularly and are always impressed by the food and very high standards of the Italian owner and his team! Great atmosphere, and popular so best to book because it is popular.

Went here for my mums 70th birthday today. Party of 8. Everyone enjoyed their meals. Lovely restaurant atmosphere and lovely staff, would highly recommend.

Really enjoyed our meal last night at Amore Mio. We thoroughly enjoyed our pizzas and desserts. Friendly staff, would recommend visiting!

Have now used a few times and food and service are excellent. We'll worth visiting

The food was exceptional. Lovely atmosphere and the service was brilliant. Would definitely come again.

I came to spend Easter, and the first night we tried to go out for dinner and the guy in there ran towards the door when he saw that we had a baby in a pram, to tell us that no space for dinner. He didn't even let us speak at all, was raining, windy and cold... he was super rude and we had to go to another place. Definitely, rather eat a meal deal from tesco than go to this restaurant to be discriminated because of a pram...

I came to this restaurant because of the good reviews it has, I went with my daughter, her husband and my 6 month old grandson, it's raining with cold and wind, and without scruples and in an arrogant way it's very disrespectful, they didn't even let us talk , they told you NOOOOO!!! because we were with a pram!!! But where the hell do you have a brain? Discrimination with children??? It is the first time in my life that I have seen these partiality, discrimination and it is such a disrespectful and unconscious attitude towards a baby! So there's no point in eating well when they treat you badly!! Impresentable

IVAN,a terrific host along with the pizza chef and waitress,absolutely wonderful afternoon, food superb, couldn't fault anything about our lunch.From the 3 GUYS....Thanku souch.

1st time visiting cirencester and heard thuis was the place to go Lovely quite Italian restaurant staff very friendly and polite and the food was simply amazing

Amazing little place, Excellent Food. Wow on every course, BRAVO

We hadn’t been to Cirencester for about 10 years and wanted a meal out somewhere, so found this restaurant on Trip Advisor. A lovely little restaurant, authentic Italian. We both had delicious pizzas and the home made gelato afterwards which was amazing! Very clean, good service. Bonus being right next to a main car park too. Will definitely visit again on our next trip to Cirencester!

Felt very welcomed by the staff, the food was lovely and we were very well looked after. Would definitely recommend.

Came here for dinner with friends and had a lovely meal. The food was absolutely delicious and the staff was so friendly. The restaurant has a really good cosy vibe and I’m always planning on coming back and bringing my family and another friend with her family!

A small but mighty place for a great pizza

Stand out selection of food, I couldn’t of been happier with the options.. huge menu! The food was delicious and in good portions sizes. Can’t wait to come back and try all the other meals on the menu!

Really authentic Italian food with great service. Very busy so best to book

We went to book this restaurant and there was space online but they were asking for a 5 pound deposit per person. We decided just to show up at 5, the whole Restaurant was empty and I was with my little boy and they told us we could not come in. Even though I saw there was space at the restaurant when I looked online. Felt Like we were being completely Discriminated against as we were A family coming to eat. If you are a family I would not recommend coming here. There are other much more friendlier Italians - never felt so unwelcome in my life !

the food is amazing, beautifully served and the service friendly. Great recommendations when we could not decide. Authentic Italian and lovely restaurant.

Now this is authentic Pizza and Pasta. A wow factor and thumbs from us. Attentive and polite service and lovely ambience Highly recommended.

Excellent Italian food and good prices.

Lasagne barely warm with Parmesan cheese already sprinkled on it. Very disappointed with it. Such a shame a real let down

Lovely pizza, other meals looked lovely

Lovely venue , great food and excellent service . Called in for lunch and they managed to fit us in . Cozy atmosphere and central location makes it ideal for a family lunch .

We were staying in the Cotswolds for the weekend for a birthday family break! It was our daughter’s birthday! I found the restaurant on this forum and it was fabulous! There were 7 of us all adults and we had the most amazing meal from start to finish! The staff were very accommodating.

Great place to eat. We were on holiday for a week and ended up visiting Cirencester twice just so we could go back to Amore Mio for a second time.

Delicious food and drinks, wonderful staff. A tad pricey

The food is lovely it’s a nice quiet little restaurant and the staff are extremely polite and attentive.

Best restaurant in the area. would definitely recommend to anyone

Amazing food, make sure you have the lasagne! Staff were very attentive and considering it was fully booked 2x on Valentine’s Day, they didn’t miss a beat.

Best pizza and carbonara we’ve had in a long time! A last minute booking on a busy day and they were so friendly and accommodating 10/10

I’ve been to this restaurant a few times and never been disappointed, the food and service is excellent. I’ve recommended this restaurant to many people. Give it a try you won’t be disappointed.

Amore Mio is truly a 5 Star restaurant. The service is excellent with attentive and considerate staff. The food is the best in the area. Fully recommend.

This was our first visit to Amore Mio and we found it a very enjoyable experience. All the staff were welcoming and friendly and nothing was too much trouble. All the food we had was great and the wine selection was excellent.

Great food, really nice wine and even better gelato. Always looking for an excuse to visit with my niece and enjoy some of the best Italian dishes in Cirencester

We just had such great lunch here, delicious, great price, very generous portions. All round a winner! Lovely service too!

We had a lovely meal and the service was great, definitely recommend a visit.

Delicious food, large helpings and reasonable prices. Good hearty Italian. It was easy to organise a large group booking with them and they were very organised.

We had such a lovely visit to Amore Mio…really friendly and attentive staff. Delicious food and drinks!

Me and my family& friends absolutely love this little restaurant. It’s cozy, fantastic service and amazing food, everything is impeccable, the Italian music in the background is just bellissima!!! We’be been here many times and it’s a pleasure to eat here. Totally recommend Amore Mio!

Been there 3 times now and every time food has been wonderful, staff super friendly, and I love the whole atmosphere 10/10

Probably the best Italian restaurant in the Cotswolds! Great food, excellent service and lots of vibe. Looking forward to visiting again soon.

Nothing more to say than what has already been said in the rave reviews! I can confirm it's all true and we'll deserved. Fabulous experience overall and Esperanza happy with the service. Courteous, polite, efficient and knowledgeable. Perfetto!

Had a wonderful birthday lunch for my wife with all the family, Lovely food and delightful staff. Looking for an excuse to return despite the fact we are not local.
