This might have been the fastest sit-down restaurant that I have ever experienced in my life! We dined at Amici at around 7pm on a Sunday night. We opted to eat in the lounge, where a medium-sized group and a handful of other couples were also eating. The service was incredibly prompt! Right after we ordered our meals, the server came with some starter bread & butter (which was great with the olive oils/balsamic vinegar). We were just finishing our last bite of the starter bread when our meals arrived.
I ordered the Penne Con Pollo and it was very good. The "red pepper cream sauce" is more of an Alfredo sauce with little red pepper flakes. The grilled chicken and spinach make this dish great.
Overall, I would recommend Amici for a little taste of Italy in Pickering/Durham Region. My only critique is for this restaurant to offer more variety on their menu (pastas and pizzas are great, but if they extended their Panini menu past 4pm, it could be even greater.)
