Always excellent service and tasty wood fired pizza that you cant get enough of.
Limited menu. BUT delicious and quality food. Promt service. I would definitely come again.
Decent pizza but the music was so depressing it just killed the vibe. It also smelled like bleach when we walked in. Glad that it’s clean but food and bleach don’t really make for an appetizing experience.
This is a great little wood fired pizza place! The waitier was super friendly and very helpful with our questions about the menu. The food was equally as enjoyable as the pleasant waiter we had!
The service was excellent, by our curly haired waiter! The pizze that we ordered were delicious, I just wish on the Capricosa it had prosciutto di Parma instead of a prosciutto that tastes more like ham. Overall id recommend it
Lets start with the bad: the pizza we had ordered was a little burned on some edges, as were the meatballs (just on the tippy top). By we, I mean me and my friend who happened to be pregnant. While looking at the Pizza crust, I remarked that one part of the pizza edges, kind of looked like an Orca, to which my friend said what do you mean? Like the whale? to which I said yeah. . .the whale, but its actually a big dolphin. I then proceeded to share all of my newly acquired knowledge on Orcas. They are magnificent super intelligent animals, who shouldnt be locked up in a small pools for peoples entertainment, is all Im saying. In the meanwhile, what I wasnt realizing was that my very pregnant hormonal friend was taking my new found interest to heart and was thinking subconsciously I brought this up . . . why ??? because she was now was a bit stocky? So as you can imagine things got akward and emotional real fast. Being that I am Kind-A emotionally stunted. . .I just couldnt deal. . . I didnt know what to do. So as fast as an Orca can catch a seal, I changed the topic and we began consuming the Marinara Pizza and the Capricciosa. Both were very good . . .I particularly like the thin crust. The meatballs were also super soft, and the accompanying sauce was delicious. It was a roller coaster of emotions, but luckily those meatballs leveled everything out. Will definitively be coming back again.
Delicious Neapolitan style pizza! We got Figura and Capricciosa. We really liked the combo. Excellent service from the waiter. Space is set-up so that tables are distanced and everything was spotless and clean (including the bathroom).
Utterly disappointed with how SLOW the service was. We got seated right away and received our wines and water right away and put in our order right away. Then the waiting began. It took the waitress an hour and half to come back to our table and acknowledge us. During this visit she gave us some bread and proceeded to tell us it will be another 30 to 45 minutes wait. Meanwhile they were serving to-go orders. They should definitely be more concerned with the hungry people in their restaurant then the to go orders. Also Im having a hard time finding a valid reason to wait over an hour just to bring bread to the table. If the wait time was going to be that long all they had to do was tell us from the very beginning. Needless to say, we left and I dont anticipate ever returning.
Pizza is really good and restaurant is well kept. I recommend it!
Excellent Salads, wood-fired pizzas, and vino!
Great woodfire pizza! Ama definitely coming back!
By no means a pizza place. Its more a trendy one step above bar food. I was not impressed. I ordered a couple of dishes and a pizza, which by the way is sold as personal pan pizza, based upon the waitress suggestions of best sellers. The meatballs, even though I was initially told were fresh made, were actually frozen and made days earlier. The sauce is as a 6 out of 10, very runny. The octopus, frozen, and overpowered by lemon. Truly disappointing was the cook in front of me who used the same towel to wipe his hands , the counter top and the knife he was using to slice cheese with...repeat. i doubt i will be back there is much better in the area for the money.
Excellent pizza cooked in a wood fired stove. Very professional staff as well. It is very rare to find good pizza north of White Plains but it is next to impossible to find it in Dutchess County! A great find and it wouldve gotten 5 stars if I couldve put garlic on my pizza. Imagine, no garlic in a pizza place. Its unheard of!
Exceedingly delicious vegetarian pizza! Among the best I have ever had. Finally, a vegetarian pizza which doesn’t just mean bell peppers :-)
Great pizza!! Seriously so good. If you’re in the area deff stop by.
My husband and I decided to try Enoteca AMA last night. We were able to get a table as soon as we walked in. The restaurant itself is decorated beautifully. After being seated we ordered drinks and had them within minutes. My husband decided to try the draft beer, which he said was amazing. I on the other hand opted for a diet coke. At the time our orders were placed, the waiter did inform us that our dinner would take a bit longer because the kitchen was backed up, which is understandable. Well it was definitely worth the wait. We both loved our pizzas and felt the price was very reasonable. The owners were present and helping out their staff. This restaurant is a fine addition to the Main Street family dining experience.
Pizza is good, waiter was snotty the first time I went. They’re not willing to sub anything out on the menu, like cheeses, etc. The most dissatisfying thing was that they didn’t have iced tea. How on earth can a restaurant not have any type of iced tea? Our waiter today was great, blonde, don’t know his name 😞. I would go back because my pizza was good. I will be calling first to make sure they’ve added fresh brewed iced tea to their drink list. 😉
Third time we have tried to order from DoorDash and been told 30 min later that the order was cancelled because the restaurant didnt respond. Just drove by to pick something else up and only two tables filled in the place...
Great place! The pizza is so thin with a perfect crust, the ingredients are interesting- not your typical pizza joint! They have great apps and salads too. Nice and casual- cant go wrong!!
Its very clean ,the tables are well spread out very nice and accommodating waiters ,food was very good the pizza and meatballs
The food is always marvelous! Sometimes there is a little wait for the food though. But truthfully, it gives you some extra time to stop and be thankful for the meal youre having even before youve even had it. Definitely a place you want to stop by for great service and food!
If this place was in NYC would close after 2 months. Pizza is average and service is awful. The manager has no idea how to run a restaurant, no idea of what hospitality means. We waited more than 50 minutes to have on our table 2 Pizza and 1 Coke, that’s all we ordered! She doesn’t even know how to apologize but she told me that I was rude to let her know that 50 minutes for an half empty restaurant it might be too long of a wait. They are lucky in Beacon there 3 restaurants, in NYC they would close after 2 months with this service to their customers. Ridiculous!
Excellent fresh pizza... Very nice ambience... Very nice waiter. Disappointed that I couldnt order a pizza the way I wanted it. Asked for chicken and meatball and onions.... They dont have any chicken or meatballs for toppings. Really? So I got an onion and zucchini veggie pizza. Nice... But not what I wanted.
Loved it! Great tasting food! Friendly service! Ive always wanted to try this place driving or walking passed it, and glad I did! Kids are welcomed but there is no kids menu, thats ok the food is great! A change of pace from other chain restaurants.
This is not good pizza...tried two styles..as someone else mentioned dry cracker type crust...no blisters..no taste...no seasoning. Bland white and underbaked on bottom..overpriced garbage pizza. If you want good wood fired pizza in the area go up to florinas in wappingers. They have it down...who opens a pizza joint without perfecting a crust recipe anyaway?.. .anyone who says this is good has no palate and certainly has never eaten pizza in Italy!
Service was fastidious. Appetizer - meat/cheese/olives with grilled bread was delightful, with unexpected nuance to its flavors and generous portions. Order for two! Pizza with figs and prosciutto creamy, with sweet and salty contrast of tastes. Oven fired crust had the faint char while remaining soft inside. Dessert - strawberries and cream gelato - fresh, creamy and again, generous. Enoteca Ama will be a regular stop for us.
Excellent pizza if you like that type. Thin and kinda gourmet style. Me I’m from Brooklyn so you know how I like my pizza. But my daughter and wife love love love this place.Go visit and enjoy.
Liked the food and atmosphere. The server, Jamel was very kind and helpful to my family and made the experience there great. Thank you.
The pizza was yummy , classic european style thin crust. Good wine selection and very amicable pleasing service.
Great pizza, interesting flavors and exceptional service
Great place to grab something fresh to eat .
Five star service, authentic wood oen al forno pizza with fresh ingredients. They now have cauliflower crust! Good craft beer and wine selection. And its reasonably priced.
The ambience is perfect. A lovely spot for a quiet, intimate, enjoyable meal. The hostess, Bartenders, and servers are all very professional.I enjoyed the Beef Carrpaccio appetizer, my dining companion had an amazing mesclun salad appetizer.We both enjoyed perfectly prepared 🧱 brick oven PIZZA. My dining companion had the Quattro Fromoggio pie, I had one with ham, kalamata olives, in a red sauce.We both devoured our meals.I (we) will be back again. This also happened to be a first date...we had a wonderful time, and I have a feeling we will be back again to the scene of the crime.Cinzano!!!!
Had the Tartufata Pizze Bianche. It was amazing
Great food and service. Vanessa and her team are terrific. Vanessa also helped me rescue a phone my elderly father left charging in the restaurant, and ship it back to a hotel in New York City. I highly recommend this restaurant.
Great brick oven pizza in a casual atmosphere. Many of the ingredients are imported from Italy, so the flavor is authentic.
Finally a wood fired pizza restaurant that gets it right. The pizza reminds me of being back in Italy. The service is also excellent and the wine list is really nice as well. I definitely recommend checking it out.
We love the food but the service isn’t that great. The management is also very nice but the one male waiter is horrible. We go there all the time but we cringe when he is assigned to our section.
THe pizza crust was perfection. It had the perfect amount of char! The wine selection was fantastic. We also had the vedura mista which was light and a perfect way to end our meal. Well be back again and again and again!
Love this place. We had the white cheese pizza, a pizza with ham, mozzarella, and mushroom spread, and the endive, walnut, blue cheese, pear salad. Food was fantastic and the server was absolutely lovely.
Really good Margherita pizza and pear salad
Reasonable prices and wonderful pizza! You can watch them make it on the spot and its a very thin crust, excellent, and Id definitely go again!
When I heard there was an Enoteca in Beacon, I immidiatly got excited. We started with a bottle of wine at the bar and then moved to a table, moving on and in to a couple pizzas and some lighter dishes.. We had the mixed vegetables, roasted tomatos etc... along with the Porchetta pizza. this is a place that I didnt expect here. I love it. My friends love it and we will probably be constant visitors. The Food 4 stars, The service 4 stars, the wine four stars, the overall experince, 5 stars.
Delicious pizza, attentive servers
The food was good. The staff is friendly. I will definitely go back.
Not very good. Caesar salad bad. Service lackluster. Didnt eat the salad.not offered to take it off the bill. Pizza soggy.
Really good pizza. Great service.
Excellent meal. Quattro formagie pizza was to die for. Just go and enjoy as we did.
It was a long wait for okay, overpriced pizza... will not revisit...
Best pizzeria in the area. Great staff and even better pizza. Swing by for an authentic experience.
Nice place but the pizza was soggy, wet on bottom of crust, no crispiness at all. I tick it back and they refunded my money.
Servers dont have much to do but take an order. Try getting it right will ya
The manager Vittorio napoletano verace is the best service staff also very good , the pizza was delicious bravo Peppe also pizza man from Napoli, I will be back again,thank you
This was the slowest restaurant I’ve ever been in. 2.5 hours to get two thin crust pizzas. No excuse.
Great pizza and wine list.
Excellent wood fired pizza with very unique combinations.
Service is awful and the owner has no idea how to run a restaurant. They are still open because in Beacon there are basically no other restaurants...
Excellent craft brews at a retro themed factory complex which also houses an IBM facility.
Cold, no heat, men behind counter not really friendly, dough chewy not crispy, just wanted to try it, wont be coming back!
Great pizzas. Affordable prices.

2022-05-07Stopped by this amazing pizza spot in Beacon during a motorcycle ride. Service was super friendly and the layout of the restaurant was open and modern. The pies pictured were delicious to the point where we ordered two more just to try different items. Can’t wait to plan our next ride up and enjoy some more pies.

2021-05-18Twos things happened, I was disappointed because the first place we wanted to go to didnt have any reservations and I was famished so took a shot on this place and the second I was pleasantly surprised.However my two peeves were the menu felt limited considering it was an Italian restaurant, I figured there would be a seafood dish or a that there would be an option to add grilled chicken to my ceasar salad. The meatballs were Slightly charred on one side but they were very flavorful.My friend has the prosciutto pizza and it was for sure my favorite thing of the three things order.Dead man beer was def the choice and I am not a beer drinker.I would say stick to the pizza when you go there.

2022-03-07Had take-out before but had to dine-in definitely worth it , Had the Tartufata Pizza (w/o ham), Margherita pizza and tuna tartar. Pizza was light, airy and delicious. Tuna tartar was bright & flavorful.

2019-10-13I loved this spot! If you’re in beacon and in the mood for a delicious pizza, this place is a must. They have a great variety of shareable appetizers, I recommend the meat and cheese plate! They also have an awesome selection of white and red pizzas. On top of the excellent food, they also had a very solid beer and wine selection, including a good variety of each.Lastly, the staff was very professional and incredibly friendly! They get a lot of visitors from the city and I felt very comfortable here. I think it deserves much better reviews overall!

2022-01-26It was nice layout of tables. The menu was small but what I ordered tasted great! The Margarita Pizza was one of the best I ever tasted. Would definitely like to visit again!

2021-12-06We ordered two pizzas and the meatball app for three people and still had a few slices to take home. The ricotta over the meatballs was so smooth and creamy, I even took the extra side of toasted bread home with the leftover sauce. The margherita and capriccioso pizzas were also delicious, and I appreciated the thin crust (also dipped in the extra sauce from the meatballs!).

2019-04-08Service was amazing, pizza tastes amazing and the menu had many options. A little disappointed in the fact that, I believe, water isnt free... I didnt ask for a glass and I wasnt offered it. On the menu it has two options for water both come in a liter. Sparkling and Non-Sparkling but I could just be assuming and maybe these were fancy Waters.We were told that the pizzas were more of a personal size and roughly at $15 each we thought maybe that was a bit pricey but not too crazy. Our pizzas were comparable to the sizes of places like Robertas and Ops, both located in Brooklyn. Those two places are roughly $24 a pie and not much larger than this place if not the same size. Also, this pizza was definitely just as enjoyable as those.

2022-05-08The food was excellent however, the service was subpar. I wish the servers were more attentive to their guests’ needs.

2018-06-27Delicious pizza! Thin and crispy just the way I like it. Its kind of loud in there so be prepared to talk over each other. I thought my pizza was bland but the chili oil they had made it better. Overpriced for what it is. Id go back if I was in beacon and someone I was with wanted to try it out.

2021-09-14Service can use some work.. i went in by myself once and was served my app and pizza at the same time. I asked for my pizza to be boxed bc it would have gotten cold..Last time i went my app was forgotten, which happens. Were only humanBut when i got it it was missing 2/5 ingredients.. hoping the next time i go there its as good as the first time.
