Amare Cucina Pizza Bar in Victoria

"No booking and absolutely pumping, yet we were still looked after. Been coming here on and off for more than four years and after a break, it is still on point, if not better. Service was fast and organised. The Negroni came out quickly, food followed just as fast, and everything hit the mark. Steak cooked exactly as ordered, plenty of solid vegetarian options, and the team clearly know their menu and their tables. Indoor and outdoor dining both work well, and the place runs smoothly even when busy, which says a lot compared to other local spots. Big thanks to John, our waiter, who looked after us properly. Easily worth the drive from Melbourne and a must if you are staying in Blairgowrie."

"Authentic Italian pizzas - so glad we found Amare. We love Italian, especially pizzas and missed having authentic wood fired pizza since we moved to the area. Highly recommend Pizza Norma. Team was very friendly. Amare will be a regular go to for us."

"A hidden gem; Amare Cucina Pizza Bar is a slice of authentic Italian heaven in Blairgowrie! Every bite of their cuisine made our hearts go “Mama Mia.” The pizza (Norma) was perfection—thin, crispy, and melted in our mouths with fresh, flavorful toppings. Their pasta? Absolutely divine. We honestly cried with joy with every bite. And don’t miss the tiramisu—it’s the perfect sweet finish! They also offer a great variety of vegetarian options, which is always appreciated. The service was warm and responsive, with the attendants treating us to smiles and thoughtful recommendations. Jasmine, in particular, was fantastic—every suggestion she made was spot on and elevated our entire dining experience. If you’re craving authentic Italian food with exceptional service, Amare Cucina is the place to be. We’ll definitely be back!"

"Stopped in here for dinner on a last minute whim one Thursday evening. The welcome and service was warm and welcoming and we were made to feel very good from the outset. We sat outside but were also told that we could move inside at any time if we wanted for any reason. The food and wine were excellent. We had the bruschetta to start with and then one of us had the beef pasta and the other the salmon. Both dishes were delicious. I would highly recommend the place again and will definitely be considering coming back soon."

"Amare Cucina Pizza Bar is unreal. the kind of place that makes you stop mid bite and genuinely question why all pizza doesn’t taste this good. The atmosphere is warm and buzzing, the service is genuinely welcoming, and the pizza is next level perfectly cooked, full of flavour, and clearly made with care. This isn’t just a meal, it’s an experience. Already planning my next visit."

"If you want to have real and authentic Italian food, this is the place for you! Felt like I was in Italy! My partner and I visited this restaurant on valentines for a dinner date. They had roses and candles on the table and the whole experience was full of love! The food was extraordinary, we couldn’t stop smiling and laughing as to how delicious everything was. Jasmine, one of the staff recommended us the drinks, main course and dessert and everything was top notch! Also, the washroom/toilet was very clean and tidy, really appreciate it. Bringing our family and friends here next! Thanks for such a good time!"
