Editorial Review for Amici's East Coast Pizzeria |
| This popular East Coast style pizzeria features brick-oven baked, thin-crust pizza with a wide array of inventive toppings.
In Short
A popular destination for young professionals and East Coast transplants, this pizzeria is known for its brick-oven baked, New York style pizzas. To accentuate the thin, crispy yet chewy crusts, pizzas come with less sauce and cheese than typically found on pizzas in California. Toppings include traditional options, such as pepperoni, sausage, mushrooms and tomatoes. A wide array of more inventive options are also available, including clams, garlic, bacon and lemon oil. |

good but a bit overated
Tried Amici's this week based on the reviews here. The pizza was good but definitely not the best pie's west of New York or even in San Jose for that matter. There were three in our group and we had caesar salad (so-so), minestrone soup (very good), pizza (good) and lasagna (very good), The wait staff was prompt for the most part but the prices are rediculously high for the pizza.

My favorite pizza & pasta joint!
I love it so much, I had my wedding rehearsal dinner there! I went on the recommendation of KNBR's Ralph Barbiari. It is the best thin crust pizza out there. I like my pie with fresh garlic and the minestrone soup is great! Cool place to hang out with friends.

Good Pizza, Not Great
The pizza here is pretty good pizza, but it's not great. It has the possibility to be great. The crust is really good, one of the best. But the sauce, is just bland, almost like ketchup. It's the one thing they really need to work on. And for the money, its over priced. I do like the atmosphere, and if I'm with friends, sharing a pie, is good. If you want reallt great pizza, drive about 5 more minutes and go to Gumba's in Sunnyvale. Lots more for less.

Go if you want to spend 20$ and still be hungry
I have been there and will never go back. Pizza was so bad, i never had so bad pizza; not even the frozen ones.....place is a bit pricey too - u feel like that esp. after such a bad dinner. pasta was horrible too...
Although we only ordered vegetarian pizzas...so do not know about the non-vegetarian ones...

Great Thin-crust Pizza!
I've been here about 10 times and I've only ordered pizza. I've tried almost all of the specialty pizzas and they're all pretty darn good! The only downside would be that sometimes the edges of the crust would be burnt. To be honest, that never bothered me too much. It still tasted great! It had the perfect amount of toppings! If I wanted more bell peppers or tomatoes, I would've ordered a salad!!! My favorite is anything with their pancetta! Yum!!

Best Pizza on the Peninsula by Diane C. at InsiderPages
Amici's is a great family restaurant, they serve fabulous thin-crust pizzas cooked to order in their wood-fired oven. In addition, they have pastas, salads, and sandwiches.

Ralph should be ashamed
Amici's pizza was by far the worst pizza I have ever had - worse then Pizza Hut. The first time we ordered it based on Ralph Barbierri's rave radio reviews - it was burnt, barely anything on it, and was horrible. We thought that might be a fluke. Another time with out of town friends just back from a trip to China and crazing pizza - I suggested this place. It was again burned, nothing on it, terrible, and a total rip off. I would never get their pizza again. BoardWalk pizza is 20 times better and they aren't even a pizza place.
We ordered a vegetarian and a cheese pizza. Both were almost inedible. Almost nothing on the "vegetarian" .. hardly a meal.
My respect for Ralph Barbierri has gone down down down. No credibility.

good pizza by David C. at InsiderPages
Amicis East Coast have a pretty good variety of pizza. They have a vegetarian pizza with egg plant which I don't find in many places. I also like their other vegetarian pizza, which is just tomatoes and garlic.
I would skip their salads though. It is just really really boring.

Good pizzas by Heather C. at InsiderPages
These are the thin crust style pizzas. I usually prefer thick crust, but if I'm force to go with my thin crust preferring friends, this is a pretty good choice. For simplicity, we like the margherita (basically just red sauce and cheese). There is also a roasted eggplant pizza. Avoid the green salad here, though. They barely chop things up, so it's just a bunch of big clunky veggies on a plate.

Amicis has wonderful oven baked pizza and pastas. The salads are fresh and crisp and the service is wonderful.
If you want yummy non greasy pizza go eat at Amicis!

$20.00 pizza with almost no chicken!
I was very disappointed with Amici's. We ordered a medium pizza ($20.00) on the thinnest of crusts, two pasta dishes ($30.00), a small pizza (for one child). It was expensive - especially since all four of us left hungry.
The thinner-crust pizzas are fine as long as they have adequate toppings. The pizza they brought out had tomato sauce, a smattering of cheese, and maybe eight thin strips of chicken. (I believe there was one small sliver of chicken per slice of pizza). For the price, the pasta dishes were meager.

Closest thing to Italian Pizza by Greg F. at InsiderPages
Wife's family is from Tuscany, and the pizza there is wonderful. Amici's is the closest thing to that pizza that we have found here in CA. Light, think crust, not overloaded with crappy toppings, and fresh! We love this place, either in Mt. View or Redwood Shores.

Just like John's in The Village
Finding this great pie made my trip to the Mtn. View street fair very worthwhile.

amici's amore
I finally found the ultimately thin crust, which is crisp without being too dry. A friend whose epicurean knowledge is usually trustworthy suggested the Pesto pizza. Momma mia, was I disappointed: no discernable garlic, nor basil for that matter; in fact, the topping seemed a lot like parsley moistened with olive oil, and not even an EVO vlariety. A side of tomato sauce was also flavorless. In this age when less is presumably more, none is still nothing. C'mon Acmici's, turn up the flavor.

THIN IS IN
I grew up in Pittsburgh where Pizza is a gourmet food... I mean the best in the world comes from all the mom and pop resturants. I detest chain store pizza.
When I came to California I had pizza withdrawal until I went to Amicis. I think the right words to describe Amicis is flavor intensity. More flavour, less filling. I love it for lunch. The meatball topping is to die for. Just order a large. If you like thin crust pizza there is no finer.

Great Pizza
Great thin pizza. The New York pizza is great. Pretty close to authentic Italian pizza.
