We felt like something other than Japanese food for a change and tried Amore Kiyamachi. The location is nice along the canal with the cherry blossoms (we weren't on the river side). Service was okay. We ordered 2 pizzas which came out quickly and were delicious, probably too much for 2 people. We also ordered one pasta dish which took ages, but was very good. Chef kindly altered the dish for our child, who loved it. Drinks standard fare. Bill quite high and included a service charge, the only one I saw in 2w in Japan - ?did we get stooged?

We went here expecting a long wait for our excellent food (as others have commented) but we were surprised by both the speed of service and superb quality of our mains (risotto and seafood pasta). Although we are not big eaters and chose to leave without having a dessert, we believe that the quantity of the food is minimal if you are a big eater.

We wanted a non-Japanese place to eat within walking distance of our hotel. Unlike others, our service was very fast, the food was good and drinks arrived promptly. We were there on a Friday mid-afternoon so they were not busy.

My wife and I were looking for a quick bite to curb our hunger that evening. We were not looking for a large set Japanese meal so we settled on this place. We ordered two pasta dishes. The service was slow and unprofessional. The three tables around us were seated after us and still got served before us. The entire river seats were open but we were seated inside. We could not find a way to order wine but we saw bottles on display. The portions were very small. With all the restaurants on the street I would not go here. We regretted wasting a meal and money on this place.
