A'mis Italian And Pizzeria

Met friends here, including a couple who hadn't been to A'mis before. They became fans just like those of us who have dined here. A'mis has ample portions fairly priced. I understand, though, that some will dispute that two salads with no drinks, no appetizers, and no desserts are fairly priced at $28, including tax but not tip. Service was attentive without being intrusive.

The food is good, and it's a great place for the three major pizza styles, STL, NYC, and Chicago. The rolls are delicious, and same with many of the dishes. The staff are friendly and attentive. But it starts to go south from there... I'm concerned that the place is perpetually hiring, and the decor is starting to show wear and tear, and a lack of interest of routine maintenance or keeping updated. I wonder if that's why our latest trip, of four adults and one child, had a 20% tip built into the check, nobody said anything, and then on the signature slip, there was a space for a tip. I would have tipped 20% anyway, due to amazing service, but when it's already factored in, it just kills the mood. This tipping situation has clearly gotten out of hand, and while A'mis isn't the first to do self serving deceptive stunts like this, it still raised my ire enough to knock the rating down 2 more stars.

This is an updated visit since last visit in 2022. Staff is wonderful especially Mary she was so friendly. They open at 11:I am daily and have a large choice for lunch specials. The salad is absolutely delicious especially with their house dressing (yummy) pizza has a great yeast based crust and very flavorful.

So close for us, we can walk here. We have had several types of pizza over our many visits and have never been disappointed. On nice days we sit outside, it is on the covered sidewalk, but it is still nice to be outdoors.

If you eat in, to get the pizza fresh and hot, this is still my all time favorite pizza!! Thin crust. Be sure to get the house salad too. Unbeatable!!!
