    I was greeted by an incredibly friendly owner when I entered the restaurant. I told her that we had to leave a bit early, so she made sure, that all our food arrived as soon as possible. We were really grateful, because that left is with plenty of time to eat and enjoy the wonderful dishes! First, we got a little tray with three snacks on the house, which were great to nibble on! The amazing food followed shortly. I loved the Nero di sepia (with cuttlefish ink), which was pitch black with the ink and had deep, wonderful flavors. The Salsiccia e porcini (paccheri stuffed with ricotta, pork sausage and porcini mushrooms) was our groups favorite! Cheesy, melty and full of flavor! Half of the sitting booths are high up, which five you some tree house vibes. It feels quite private, since every group has their own booth. I would recommend this place for a group of friends or date :)

    My absolute favourite restaurant / bar in Islington. Michele and his team are the nicest, most hospital people - I always feel like home when I'm there. And the food is amazing too! Definitely recommend it!

    Super friendly and helpful On a match day was given a priority for a great table (up top). Food was tasty, good value, fresh and just what was needed. My daughter loves sitting up high too (as did I!) Thanks Amor!!

    Delicious home cooked Italian food done the proper way served with soul in a cosy atmosphere - lighting music wine. A little sanctuary on Holloway Road.

    Wonderful and Fun! Paradise of wine lover 🍷, a family restaurant in Holloway Road which I consider a great place to celebrate parties, enjoy a pure Italian wine and food with real Italian standard . Amor restaurant is like to be in Italy, the team has a great sense of hospitality, The food is traditional south italian, fresh cheese, burrata and unique pastas recipes which distinguishes this restaurant from all the other Italian junks in London, the menu has his own concept as it’s the same for the wine selection, offering a selection of self imported Italian wine directly from the owner to offer something different and special . Highly recommend to try it 👍

    Very friendly, welcoming staff and cosy atmosphere. The food is great and nicely presented, in particular the appetisers and the mozzarella/burrata ones. I've been there twice and I'll definitely keep coming! Grazie per l'esperienza! :D

    Spectacular dinner with an incredible selection of Italian reds. One of my favourite parts was the huge selection of vegetarian options- as well as the wine!

    A very friendly, new Italian restaurant. The staff are warm and welcoming, the pasta is tasty. The decor is fun, with small wooden booths and great pictures…a Roman theme in a groovy way. They have an extensive wine list and good taste in music. Lucky Holloway Road! So when you are next in N7, do as in Rome and visit.

    On the hunt for some pizza after a football match, two other places nearby turned us away because they were closing soon… I’m glad they did, or else we never would have discovered Amor. Delicious food, warm atmosphere, good service. Quite a party by the end of the night… try the limoncello ;)

    What an amazing restaurant! We randomly discovered it being in the area. Extremely happy we popped in for a full meal and a nice bottle of wine. Food is very fresh and delicious, staff and the owner are super friendly and welcoming! Also amazing menu, a lot of options for vegetarians and different pizza bases. We will be back 100% soon. Thank you so much 😍

    Authentic Italian! Great atmosphere. We've been at Amor for dinner, we had pizza and cocktails, so good!! We met the owner Michele and his great and friendly staff. The atmosphere is so relaxed and warm, also our 2 dogs felt very welcomed! We had an amazing evening, and we'll be back for sure. We strongly recommend Amor!!

    What an absolute gem of a find! Lovely local Italian restaurant with fabulously authentic tastes, the Roman Pinsa (think pizza but with the most delicious fluffy dough you’ve ever tasted) and the giant nocelara olives as well as the parmigiana. Service was super friendly and easy going - a must visit!

    Querky Bunk tables. Good for groups. Smaller to tables for a bit more of a romantic atmosphere. Great food & sharing plates. Good wine. Great food & something to suit everyone's palate. Open late.

    Lovely little Italian in Highbury, good food and service. I loved the fantastic use of space, functional and oddly attractive. I completely recommend stopping here if you are hungry!

    A warm and welcoming authentic slice of Italy on the Holloway Road. It's not cheap, but the owner aims to please and the food is delicious. He was very willing to cater for a vegan. We sat up in the gods, which was memorable! Very happy to recommend.

    Surprising. We were led in and shown to a seat in a 'bunk' - a private seating area up five or so steps in a mezzanine area. Despite the difficulty reading menu (small print) recommended dishes of mozzarella, anchovies and pesto sauce followed by pizza Roman style was excellent. Wine was superb. The only criticism is that the panacota was slightly warm & not to my personal taste. However the tiramisu was totally delicious. Would recommend trying and may go again. Lovely owner and very genuine lovely staff. Thank you.

    Came here for dinner with friends. The place seems cozy and was funny to see the upper bunk bed style seating options from below, cool concept!!! I don't remember what my friends had but I had a decent cheesy gnocchi and since I never had tiramisu I had to try afterwards. Good taste and staff lady was very friendly and considerate

    My friend and I went to Amor end of 2022 and we absolutely loved it. The food is amazing and Pamela made sure we were well looked after. The restaurant is a family run place and the atmosphere is super great and give of a vibe of an alpine chalet with the wooden benches, tables and walls. We will definitely come back!

    While feeling hungry before the cinema, I was very lucky to randomly stumble into this lovely place tonight. I had Orecchiette Pasta with Sausage and Broccoli - it was absolutely delicious! The service was brilliant - very welcoming and friendly.

    Really good Italian food. I like the music and the seats, bringing into Italy.

  • 5/5 Alexyz John L. 5 months ago on Google
    My experience at Amor was immaculate! Very welcoming staff and such wonderful service. The place is also set up in such a warm and unique way. My friends and I just came from Rome but this might have been one of the best Italian restaurants I’ve been too in the last two weeks. If I could give them 10 stars, I’d give them 11 stars. Shout out Mike 🎉

  • 5/5 Danielle H. 5 months ago on Google
    We had such a great evening with a group of 8 of us, really cool layout of the restaurant with treehouse-esque seating. The food we ordered was really great, ingredients fresh from Italy! But what was even better was the service and care, Mike was so accommodating and even gave us some things to try on the house :) honestly a great experience and the owner and staff made our day.

  • 5/5 Caitlin C. 5 months ago on Google
    Amazing, the service and food was 5* quality without a DOUBT! We went last night for my mum's birthday, they joked that we were stepping into Italy and honestly, it felt like it! The seating arrangements are incredibly cool and the decor is beautiful. Absolutely recommend

    Love this place! The pizzas are always perfectly cooked, fresh ingredients, crispy and authentically Roman. The set up is great for date night or an intimate dinner with friends. They’ve got these treehouse style tables that are cute. Will definitely come back for the food and friendly staff!
