    First time at Lorenzo's. The food was excellent. I went with a group of about 20 people. We all did a make your own pasta. I was impressed and will definitely go again when in Amsterdam, NY.

    We were just out for a ride then decided we wanted to go out to dinner. We were in Amsterdam, so I pulled into a lot and started my Google search of places and they're menus. Just in the vicinity we were in there were 5 places to go . Decided on Lorenzo's but when I pulled up their page it said they were closed (not realizing the time, 9pm). We entered through their amazing deck. The greeter said the kitchen closes at 9 but she would see what she could do. Just then a man in a red jacket (I'm assuming owner, kitchen staff, etc). He said straight away to get us a table and we would be served. Every employee we had interactions with were such pleasant people. Our server was wonderful⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Prices are a bit steep, but then so is everything lately. The meals were absolutely delicious. Definitely going again ... You should too 😋 Forgot to add, there's a lot of parking!!

    Two of my three experiences here were good with one leaving much to be desired,so this is an aggregate review. Most recent time I ordered the pistachio and sausage wood fired pizza which was quite good.Service was poor on a Saturday night but the quality of the food partly offset that fact. Ordering off their specials menu can be a flip of the coin,I got Lasagna as a special my first time here and was terribly disappointed with its very lackluster composition and taste,while another time I ordered an incredible Chicken Milanese with imported artichokes which was on the money. Overall good selection of beers and wines and good varity of selections.Prices can be quite high and that can sting if you order something that falls flat.

    Fantastic restaurant for dinner. Our waitress was so friendly and helpful in choosing our menu items. The Neapolitan pizza was phenomenal! The chocolate pie was delicious, and more than large enough to share.

    I'm working a contract in the area for a couple of months, and have been trying a lot of restaurants. This has definitely become one of my main go-to places! The pizzas are great, the pasta dishes are great. I've gotten great service every time, doing both takeout and dining in. My favorite pizza is the Americana, just perfect every time. Also the wings are awesome with their special honey garlic sauce! House salad Italian dressing is creamy and tasty, I don't normally care for Italian dressing but love this version. The chicken parmesan was a huge serving, and the gnocchi special one week was some of the best I've ever had.

    Pasta/sauce was amazing, chicken sandwich was boring. The place was super busy on a Sat evening and the waitress was just barely keeping it together. That peanut butter pie was insane!

    For those biking the Empire State Trail, Lorenzo’a Southside is PERFECTLY located directly beside the trail and in the shadow of Amsterdam Castle. The restaurant has a roomy “outside” seating area in addition to the inside portion and was very accommodating to large groups, the possibility of pets and, well, me. The wait staff was fabulous and the pasta was to die for! I ordered the gnocchi pomodoro and it melted in my mouth…SO GOOD! A Sam Adams Oktoberfest was perfect for the season and if you are interested in a cocktail, try the Italian Old Fashioned.

    Our very favorite restaurant since moving closer to Amsterdam. Never had a bad meal. Always great service.

    I'm still so full. We shared a large antipasto salad and a small Margarita Pizza. Everything is good to eat in this restaurant. You will love the food. We sat in the new enclosure with those heat lamps with fire directed in them... yeah it set off the ambience. Nice. Water with lemon set out ahead of time at our tables. We had 16 people together. Awesome service. We were greeted with small plates of something similar to tomato pie to me. It's complimentary and yummy. They have a pretty good selection of drinks. The menu selection was sufficient. Everyone had something different from us and everyone ate everything. There was a good crowd there and the owner came out to say hello to everyone and my companion in particular. They know each other. Good food. Great service. Looks nice, feels nice in there. What more do you need? Go try them out. You won't be sorry!
