First time patron to this restaurant: I ordered a Philly Steak & Cheese to go while on my lunch break. When I returned to my office I cut off a 1/4 portion of the sandwich and took a bite. Although the sandwich didn’t have a lot of meat, it looked good.... it had tainted taste to it.

At first I thought it may be the cheese. But after separating the cheese from the sandwich and taking a sniff, I found out that it was not the cheese. I did the same to the onion and green pepper. Not them either. So then I pulled some of the meat out of the bun. Yep it was the meat that had this funny smell and taste.

I thought to myself, IS THIS BEEF, or could it be Lamb, maybe Veal or (God help me!) some other kind of meat? I immediately went to the phone to call the establishment and Mike answered the phone. I asked him if the meat that they use is truly beef? His response was, "Yes, it's steak!". (Hmmm, why didn’t he say beef?) I then told him about the tainted smell and taste of the meat. He told me that he had sold (1) earlier and they did not complain. I'm thinking... (I hope they are still ALIVE).

But since he was so rude and did not care about satisfying a Customer, I am taking to social media to tell about my experience. And just in case I get sick tonight, form the same portion that I ingested I will have proof of why/how.

I don't go to work to just take my money and just throw it away! Especially on their over-priced sandwiches. But now the sandwich has gone in the trash just like my money.  No Lunch for me today.

Don't go to this location in Charlotte! The best Amalfi's that I have tried are in Statesville, NC and Newton/Conover, NC. I will not be going back to this charlotte location!

I ate there, today, 23 February 2014. I wanted to order two slices of Sicilian style pizza, but I could not, as they sell whole pizzas on Sunday. When I said I will order a whole pizza, the person who took my order, I think may have been a manager informed the cook. Now, where I sat, I could see the cook in the back and everything, and I saw him get lippy. He had a horrible attitude and I could hear him as well. I did not like his tone.



Also, towards the end, a couple came in, and they ordered pizza, as well. When the server took their order, she told him their order and I could hear him mumble something with the "F" bomb in there.



While dining at this establishment, I noticed a lack of professionalism from this individual. He was disrespectful to the lady. He started moving his fingers to his lips like he was smoking a joint to her with some sort of attitude. He has no business working there. In fact, I doubt I will dine at this establishment until he is terminated. If anyone else eats there, look for a lighter skin toned man who may be wearing a NY Yankees fitted cap. If I knew his name, I would throw it out there, as well.

terrible

Went for the first time with my boyfriend to amalfis. First off the service was terrible from the moment we walked in the waitress acted like she didn't want us to be there or herself. I'm a server so I know what good service is and I also know what restaurants have to endure so I'm the last to complain about anything. But this place was awful. Waitress didn't greet us just wanted our order and gave attitude when we needed more time. When the salad came out the lettuce was wilting and looked like it was about 5 days old. If I am going to pay 13.75 for a bowl of pasta with vodka sauce (no meat) my salad better be fresh and without wilted lettuce. Our bill was 28.95 total for 2 bowls of pasta and 2 waters no desert, no appetizers. I could have gone to Harris teeter gotten the materials for way cheaper and been just as good without the rude service. Stay away not worth the money, very disappointed will be telling family and friends about this.

Not re al Italian food

This guys has a full staff of Mexicans cooking the food and I have personally encountered the owner and his wife's racism first hand.
