Absolutely loved the marinara with mozz sticks. Old school taste! I’m not a big fan of NY style pizza. That’s Amore was pretty tasty. Very friendly and polite staff. Made my family and of course myself very comfortable. Get place for family pizza night, maybe a date or just grabbing pizza for yourself. Sorry about the empty tray. Mozzarella sticks where so damn good they didn’t mKe the picture.
I had visited on their first day of operations since they had closed following a kitchen fire on May of this year (I actually got a slice that day before things had gone downhill). This place makes great pies, and it really serves as a good quick service location for downtown CL.
As much as I like scouting pizzerias (something I did during the period of their closure), That's Amore has a unique pie which really fulfills a special niche as far as pizzerias are in the region. I do have my other picks in case I am more in the mood for crispy tavern style thin crust, and some locales I could stop in just in case I am in town, but not a lot of locations in that latter list carry a distinction to where I would divert from my route just to have a pizza from that location.
That's Amore Pizza's slices have a crust that is soft and puffy rather than crispy - though really, this is one thing that serves in its benefit. The sauce has a very rich texture going for it - just the right balance of saltiness and sweetness which compliments the airy crust. Cheese is not overdone and spread out evenly - doesn't collapse in on itself like some other locations end up doing, and the toppings make their presence known.
At an earlier time, they used to provide garlic knots aside their slices, but they were not serving them in this time. I will give them a slide for now.
I won't judge on whether this is authentic NY style pizza because I have never had a pizza in NY, but ultimately I am glad that this place has resumed operations. Downtown CL is blessed to have you guys.
picked up 3 half baked pies on Saturday for Sunday. Baked at 375 for 17 minutes, per their instructions. Ended up at Jewel 30 minutes till close, buying some frozen pizzas. Never ever again. There are many other pizza places in CL that are better.
We love That's Amore pizza. We have been ordering for years and have literally never had a bad pizza. We just recently discovered their Cheesy Garlic pizza bread and it's delicious. One thing I wish is that they opened earlier than 4 as I would be able to order more on my way home from work. Right now it's reserved for days I work late.
Went here with friends, incredibly cheap and very clean. Employees were super nice and food came out immediately after ordering
Worked here when I was 15 just about 10 years ago now and always loved the pizza. Note: they do not have garlic knots anymore :( but garlic cheesy bread is still good.
This is not generic pizza, it has a small joint feel and it's own delicious flavor. Highly recommended and worth a try if you haven't had it yet.
5* to 2*
This place used to be a great bargain pizza slice (and garlic knot). Prices have gone up, service has gone down, and the garlic knots have been removed. The staff is not the problem with the service; it's the lack of ready to go slices of pizza at any given time; inventory is kept low. And no longer even offering the garlic knots as an add on is a straight sin. Those were worth at least a $1.
