Amore – Italian
Amore captures a sense of timeless elegance, where the air is filled with the savory aroma of golden potato croquettes and tender lamb meatballs simmering in rich, fragrant sauces. Guests indulge in a sophisticated parade of flavors, from the crisp, earthy bite of fried artichokes to the delicate, sea-salted luxury of Patagonian prawns and smoked salmon adorned with glinting caviar. This is a space where vibrant heirloom tomato salads and peppery arugula provide a fresh, bright counterpoint to the buttery richness of Prosciutto San Daniele, making every meal feel like a curated celebration of the senses.
