Reviews
"Very displeased with the service at this location. We went up to order and the gentleman had AirPod in and had to ask us to repeat ourselves several times. Then when we went to pay the girl behind the counter was playing a game on her phone and half paying attention to us while we were trying to pay. While waiting for our order we watched her ring others up while still playing the game. It’s a shame because the food is very good but the service is lacking."
"Fantastic food, great service, good value. Why go elsewhere when Amato's offers pizza, pasta dishes, and hot or cold subs."
"Soggy wet nasty bread. Eaten a minute after purchase. They must have premade soggyness that they pull for your order. Literally saw my italian wrapped up, went straight to my vehicle and ate immediately with oil on the side. Without the oil it was so soggy that the bread was inedible ruining the whole experience. Won't be back."
"Ordered a classic cold cut italian, ended up with a original Italian sandwich. The sandwich consisted of one slice of ham and one slice of cheese, it was barely recognizable. I was born in New York city, I have been a Chef fo more than 40 years and the Bread you are using is not Italian as it should be soft inside and crunchy on the outside. But as your cashier told me you have been in business since 1902, so you must be doing something right."
"Food was great. Unfortunately, the employee at the register was not paying attention to my order. After repeating back to her a fairly simple modification (steak and cheese with no peppers), the prep time was very long, and when I received my sandwich, it still had all the peppers one might normally receive. Upon returning the sandwich, I again, had to repeat my request not just to the same employee, but made sure her colleague who was actually building the sandwiches heard and understood. By the time the oven finished, the small rush of customers had drained out, and I was left standing to watch as my sandwich came out of the conveyor oven and sat at the end while the employee who took my order originally had come down the line to chat and distract the others who were trying to work. One had to ask me what I was waiting for, and said to the others "Hey! Wrap that! He's been waiting for it." At least everyone was friendly about it, but the whole visit took much longer than it normally would or needed to."
