I come here quite a bit.
I am a sucker for helping small local businesses survive... and I also like Tony (the owner). I also like his wife, who runs the "other" Amore's (near Thompson Peak Pkwy).
The food it "good". Not great. I ALWAYS order the same things... the Chicken Cutlet Parm sandwich. I am a big guy, and a 1/2 sandwich is PLENTY for me... and it it good.
My "gripe" is with the appetizers. They are good, and they always seem to be on a $5.00 special... but they seem awfully like institutionalized frozen fair.
I guess what I am saying is I can easily get the same stuff from Costco. And I don't want that when I go out to eat. I try to look for something fresh and new... maybe even different. I am also not a fan of prepackages "dipping sauces" (ranch, honey mustard) that you get when you order appetizers. That's what you get here. Reminds me too much of McDonald's.
If you are a fan of "aviation" it is neat to sit on the patio and watch all the rich snobs fly into Scottsdale Airport in their private jets, while you eat your curly fries!
"Oggi's" used to be in this spot. I was never a fan of that place... and it obviously did not do well... I HOPE for a different end result with Amore Sports Grill!
