Enough help, enough food( they did not run out of anything ) which is no easy challenge. Been there many times and will continue. Menu very diverse. Always great specials.

    Our group of six dine at Arugula a few times a year. It’s a BYOB so each couple brings a bottle of wine. Last night I split a Caesar salad with my wife. I had the chicken piccata as my entree and tiramisu and decaf cappuccino for dessert. Everything was delicious. Everyone else seemed satisfied with their meals.

    We had a wonderful graduation celebration for 5. Our server, Gabby, was very attentive and took great care of us. She really knew and understood the special dishes and all the complexities. I wish we lived closer so we could go here more often. Beautiful atmosphere and all of our food was lovely and delicious! We’ll be back for the next graduation celebration for sure!!!

    We met with 2 of our best friends and enjoyed an absolutely wonderful evening and meal. The service was fantastic from start to finish. We enjoyed the Crab Bisque. Then the entrees were just fantastic. One was the Snapper special, another was the tortellini special followed by 2 chicken piccata entrees, which were all absolutely amazing. We highly recommend Osteria Ama to all those wishing to enjoy a wonderful and delicious Italian meal!!!
