I had visited Amici's shortly after the transition from Mama Baris. My previous review was a bit critical, and after further visits, I felt the need to follow up with another review that shares my improved opinion. I have now visited Amici's several times over the past six months - usually for pizza, salad, calzones, or the occasional pasta dish. As a vegetarian, I really can't speak to the quality or value of the meat entrees and burgers. I can say that I feel the Amici's team has worked out many of the transition bugs and is now delivering one of the best values in the area for classic Italian fare. There are other establishments that can possibly boast a better pizza, but not a better pizza value.
I have to assume that my earlier mixed experiences were just attributable to transition pains. I definitely think that Amici's can be considered one of the brighter spots in Waco's restaurant scene.
