This place is absolutely divine!!! Authentic Italian quality with a very high standard for what they are serving. The atmosphere is very romantic as well. Great happy hour for spritzes and small plates too!

Stopped in midweek for a low-key evening and was seriously impressed. This spot leans cocktail-heavy with an upscale bite menu, and they absolutely nailed it. The Paloma was balanced, bright, and not overly sweet—just the right citrus bite with a smooth finish. As for the King Salmon appetizer? Next level. You can tell the chef doesn’t cut corners—everything from the plating to the ingredient quality felt intentional and elevated. Beautiful presentation, bold flavor. This place delivers on vibe and quality without feeling stuffy. Definitely one to keep in the rotation.

Bar Amorina is a nice addition to The Clayton Hotel. The menu features fun twists on classic Italian dishes and drinks. The service was also great. Highly recommend sitting at the bar. The menu is a bit overpriced but overall good experience.
