What a great find. Amata is delicious. The menu has a number of things on it which are unusual, which makes it a fun evening. If you don't see what you like, they will make it for you. The tables are well spaced so that...the noise level is low (despite the dining room being full) and conversations are private. Prices are fair. Service can get busy, but not so much as to be annoying. I am in a wheelchair and there is ample room to maneuver around. I am looking forward to my next visit.More

Amata is a delicious Italian restaurant. It’s a Midtown gem of the neighborhood! The ambiance is good, the food delightful and the service outstanding!!! I’m sure I’ll go again.

Amata came recommended and we were not disappointed .First class service and food from start to finish . They couldn’t have been more helpful. Food we chose was the “Double pork chops” and the “Chicken Martini”. Great choice . Highlight was definitely the “ Pistachio...Ice Cream wrapped in White Chocolate. Long way to come from Scotland but would come again to Amata.More

My friends and I enjoyed our first time at Amata’s. It had more of a neighborhood feel than a tourist trap. Love the cocktail menu, great variety. Nice choices on the food menu. I thought they were reasonably priced. Very good service.

Our visit to Amata was based on a friend's recommendation and that was spot on. Instead of ridiculous NYC prices for hohum food, we found our new favorite. The service - simply superb, reasonable prices, and great food were our experience. It made our Saturday...night. I had the fettucine with wild boar ragu...omg I want more!More

My wife planned a very small gathering of close friends and family for appetizers and drinks with family remaining for dinner. The staff was amazing, from bar tender to waiters, our every need was met and the food was delicious. Linguine with white clam sauce,...broccoli Rabe and all manner of Italian delights flowed from the kitchen.More

The service, the staff, the atmosphere and the food was incredible! Thanks to Chris and his team for an incredible birthday experience Highly recommend!

This is my most favorite restaurant. I have eaten at Amata many times so I finally feel compelled to share my accolades. The atmosphere is elegant, warm and comfortable. From the moment you walk in you are treated superbly. And then the food! Just absolutely...delicious and you will not leave hungry. The portions are large and their veal parmigiana is one of the best dishes I've ever had. Amata thruly delivers and yes they have their act together. And then there is Olga behind the bar!!!More

A good Italian restaurant serving the classics (parmigiana...eggplant, chicken or veal), mozzarella caprese, meatballs, and fried calamari with sautéed mushrooms, cherry tomatoes and arugula in a mildly sweet, tasty, non-red sauce (a standout). The pappardelle with crab, peas and tomato was also a very good...dish. The atmosphere is warm, not frenetic and so pleasantly low key. The host and waitstaff are professional, accommodating and attentive, but not intrusive. The food and atmosphere are more old-school Italian, and dinner is relaxing, not rushed, and not a scene. We enjoyed our leisurely evening at Amata and will definitely return.More

I have dined at Amata for lunch and dinner several times over the past two years. Lunch yesterday was super tasty as always. The shrimp fra diavolo was cooked to perfection and spicy. Seating on the veranda also makes for a very pleasant and refreshing...experience.More

Amata is the perfect place when you have diners with varying Italian preferences. The Southern Rigatoni alla bolognese was perfect for one my colleagues while I preferred the light, delicate calamari salad which melted in your mouth. If you like pistachio, the tartufo was excellent.

Reminded me of an old time Neapolitan restaurant, dark wood with white table cloths. We enjoyed veal and eggplant parmigiana. Pasta was cooked perfectly.
