Our first time having Arancini and what an experience it was! We ordered the Chicken Tikka and the Butter Chicken. The food was prepared fresh and fast and came with a side of pasta salad and the corn salad. Everything was delicious! Loved the freshness of the salads despite having ordered so late at night and the Arancinis were sumptuous! The meat was nice and tender and the crispy exterior complemented the juicy interior. The accompanying sauces brought the whole dish together and left me wanting more. A seal of approval for these ethnic Arancinis as an Indian myself. We will be back to try all of the other varieties! Looking forward to becoming a regular of this little restaurant on our corner!

My first Arancini ever and wow! I tried the Jerk Chicken one, and I thought it was delicious. The owner and staff are so friendly which made the experience that much better. Highly recommend this place. I believe their menu has something for everyone!

Tried a few of their Arancini offerings (Italian, Jerk, and Chinese) and they were all delicious. The corn salad was also good. The owner is very friendly and seems to have a lot of experience with this type of food. The fusions are unique and I definitely recommend a visit!

We were so excited to see this place open up in our neighborhood! Everything has been so delicious, we keep going back to try new flavors. The Jerk chicken and African peanut are definitely the standouts for me. The arancini are a good size so 1 is pretty filling. The employees are all so friendly and just by talking to the owner you can tell how passionate he is about making something special for people. Definitely our new favorite spot in the area. The place itself is small but the food travels well so it’s perfect to grab and go.

Delicious and unique, a must try for anybody in the neighborhood!
I’ve been a few times since they opened recently and I got to say it’s become one of my favorite spots in the neighborhood.
I recommend the Arancino, prosciuttino and the Dorowattino. All have been delicious and filling.
The garbanzo salad with the feta is also a fav of mine
Besides the food, the staff is amazing and friendly!
Amici is on track to be one of the best spots in the neighborhood and a must have for anybody passing through.

The owner was nice and generous. The arancini are very good. 1 was enough for dinner.

This place just opened, great arancini (and this comes from someone who has lived in New York and New Jersey for majority of his life)! We ordered the masala, jerk, and classic Italian. It was the best arancini we’ve had in Chicago. The jerk chicken was my favorite, my boyfriends favorite was the Italian. Also, the corn salad was really good too!! The owner is super friendly and helpful, great conversation and service. Glad this is only a short walk away, will definitely be back!
