Stop trying to find that Italian Restaurant in Portland. Why not try where my Dad and my uncle went to for years. Thank God you re opened and have fabulous food with the quiet neighborhood atmosphere. Your the start of Italian row down to St. Michael’s before they whipped our neighborhood clean.

I’m so happy that they are back open. Same great food and attentive friendly staff. This place has been a tradition with my friends for years. I will be back. Sat in the bar on this visit and had some great happy hour small plates and then they switched to a full menu in the bar. We had full entrees and thoroughly enjoyed our visit

If you used to love Caro Amico and haven’t been back in since the re-opening, WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR? It’s such a great, traditional, Italian restaurant with incredible food and service. The owner, Elsie, is a treasure in the Portland restaurant scene who truly loves this business, and it shows in everyone working there. I went last night with my wife and daughter, and we had a wonderful time. It felt like a refreshed version of what it’s always been: a cozy, friendly place where the staff cares about every diner and the food shows it.

It’s actually six stars all the way down except for the fact that the food is better than the excellent service and atmosphere. It is a place that feels like it’s out of a movie. I cannot think of many places that I felt so almost spiritually moved. My inner core just felt so different. When I saw that they were closed it was kind of heartbreaking actually. I don’t come here often, it’s kind of a special place so I don’t want it to be too common for me it might wreck the specialness. I keep waiting for these people to open back up and hope not much has changed. Perhaps, perhaps it will change but I will go see for myself. I do want to tell the Proprietors as well as the staff I am really awaiting this. It’s not like I have giant expectations I’m just going to take it as it comes and enjoy every bite. Thank you for creating this one off kind of a brilliant restaurant. Time to get back to sleep

IT’S BACK OPEN!!! I’m here on opening night! So classy and yet a wonderful home-like feeling. Best Italian food in town, By far. The staff is very pleasing to be around. This place is a gem, this is one place I will be frequenting for the rest of my life. What a treat.

We ate at Caro Amico’s last night & it was excellent. They don’t take reservations yet, so arrive early (4 pm is about right to enjoy drinks & appetizers then eat dinner around 6. They are still ramping up and prepare most food to order). The pomodoro bruscetta is a star.must order, as usual. The mix grill with stuffed ravioli and shrimp scampi are out of this world. Service was friendly and good – a little slow due to the number of diners and ramp up but they are open about the situation and will continue to improve. The manager walks around and checks.

They recently just opened from being closed for awhile due to the fire. So it is a bit chaotic and unorganized. I’m sure once they weed through the staff and tighten things up it will improve. I don’t suggest working there.

Personal pizza was awesome. Bar is small & was full which made it very loud & hard to hear the person I was with.
