 The restaurant is nicely decorated with leather-like seating and geometric light fixtures.  The tables were spaced apart, so they were not crammed.  I would add some felt pads to the wooden chair legs as they did drag on the wooden flooring.

 Our seats were already set with the place settings, and once we were seated, the server filled our glasses with water and refilled them periodically throughout the meal.

 After looking through the menu, we decided to order a salad, a pasta dish, a main course, and a dessert to split between the two of us.

 After placing our order, we were served two types of bread with oil and vinegar.  There was a lighter white bread and an herbaceous focaccia-like bread.

 Oyster with Seaweed Jelly:  The seaweed jelly complemented the salinity of the oyster and had a surprising umami effect.

 Oyster with Salmon Caviar and White Balsamico: The Salmon Caviar wasn't overly salty, and the acidity of white balsamic balanced out the salinity of the salmon roe and the oyster.  It was an interesting match!

 Oyster with Lemongrass Foam: The lemongrass foam had an appetizing citrus burst, and it added a light bright flavor to the oyster!  Out of the 3 oysters, I liked this one the best!

 Roasted Quail Salad, Pecans, Apple, Truffle Oil, and Amici Dressing ($158):  The roasted quail was very succulent, the flesh was tender, and the skin was flavorful.  The truffle oil was quite aromatic, and the acidic dressing was delightful against the crunchiness of the fresh greens, pecans, and apple pieces.

 Pan-seared Grouper, Chorizo Sausage, Salanx Fish ($348): The grouper had a perfectly-seared crispy skin, and the salanx fish pieces were equally crispy.  The chorizo and haricot vert mixture atop the fish was very delectable and added another dimension of flavor to the grouper.

 Squid Ink Risotto, Sea Scallops, Calamari and Parmesan Cheese ($188):  The risotto was completely doused with squid ink sauce, and within the risotto were toothsome pieces of chopped sea scallops.  The calamari rings on top had the ideal firm and bouncy texture.

 Crème Brûlée ($78):  This crème brûlée had the perfect sugar crust that cracked when I hit it with the spoon!  The custard underneath was smooth, and I could see little dots of vanilla dispersed throughout.

 Amici was the perfect venue for XO's honey and I to talk about birthday plans for XO as the restaurant was cozy and quiet, the food was delicious, and the servers were nice and courteous!
