Vero Amore (meaning “true love” in Italian) was certified as Authentic Neapolitan Pizzeria #250 by Italy’s world-renowned Associazione Verace Pizza Napoletana Academy (VPN), which requires strict traditional Neapolitan pizza making standards.
While being a certified Neapolitan pizzeria means a whole lot of diligent care – handmade mozzarella; imported ovens, tomatoes, and flour; training in Italy; careful measurements of pizza thickness; the requirement of particular pizza topping options – it is meticulous preparation that makes Vero Amore pizzas, and dishes in general, unique and absolutely delicious.

Tyler, Gilbert, Max you all seem nice enough but Max where was the greeting, can I get you anything else, blah blah blah. As far as the food goes, I think it was very mediocre. I ordered the shrimp Diavolo,(?), it was just OK, very soupy, although the 5 shrimp, cooked perfectly, pasta was over cooked. My husband got the chicken Madeira, that was just OK as well. Definitely, neither dish was worth $22 each. Also, it was the worst Paloma, way too much salt that we sucked up in our drink and I’ve never tasted a worst Tom Collins ever.

Went here for the first time on a recommendation from a local. Wife had the Amore Cobb, and I got the Calzone. It was jam packed on a Thursday night, which we appreciated, since you know that is a good sign. We sat at the bar to watch Leagues Cup soccer and are not picky, but we might not have had a table otherwise.

The experience started off pretty good it’s a nice atmosphere, I ordered the Chicken Parmigiana I had a couple of bites and realized it was oddly chewy so I get out my flashlight to look at it and it was raw, very raw. To make things even worse whenever it came time for the bill they still tried to charge me for the raw chicken I sent back. I definitely will not be going back there. Now the day after I have a killer stomachache and can’t even hold down any food without vomiting.

We went and the service and food were horrible. No one even checked on us to see how were doing. We were practically the only ones there not that that matters. Apparently, there was a problem with busing the tables around us promptly. Everyone working there was sloppy and shuffling around. Even the manager looked at us with an unreadable expression as he past by. After the terrible appetizer and the soup I sent back I was ready to leave. However, my husband wanted to give it more of a chance. Well, nothing changed as the prices continued to climb for our meals. I could have easily sent my entry back. Years ago we went and the service and food were great. Definitely will not be going back.

Absolutely delicious food! Loved the pizza, mussels in white wine garlic sauce, and hot cookie dessert. The service and timing were spot on, letting us relax and talk while enjoying our food. The prices were excellent for the quantity and quality of food.

A bit disappointing this evening. My family took me out to dinner to celebrate Mother’s Day as to avoid the madness tomorrow. Our server never introduced himself to the table. and if I didn’t look on our check, I’d have never known. Ron stood at the far end of the table of 7 and tried to take drink orders. Didn’t work very well as we couldn’t hear him. He really didn’t seem like he wanted anything to do with us. The Fettuccine Alfredo was great as were the muscles, however by the time it got to me, a total mess. The shrimp were over cooked and my pasta was quite underwhelming. No where near as flavorful as the muscles and sauce was supposed to be the same. Ron did take my meal off the bill, so thank you. Never once did he ask us if we wanted a 2nd cocktail, and we were waiting to order a bottle of wine, but that never happened. I am certain my husband tipped him well, as even with poor service he probably tipped 20%. If things had been smoother and if we felt more welcome to be there, I am sure it would have been quite a bit more.

Wonderful Italian restaurant with attentive staff and delicious food. Everything we tried was amazing. The in-house dough is on point.

Overall it was an enjoyable dining experience on the Vero Amore patio. Service was good, pacing was good. I wasn’t particularly fond of the dish I ordered but I’m sure it was prepared well. My wife enjoyed her salmon dish

My friend and I ate here during Happy Hour after a hike in the Catalinas. The restaurant is placed in a protected mall like courtyard with other restaurant choices close by off Swan Road. Our waiter was pleasant and quick to take the order and bring our food choices. There is both indoor and outdoor seating. Unfortunately, we were disappointed with the food. I ordered the Bianca al Prosciutto pizza. The pizza and bread is “wood fired” with a nice taste. However- the pizza did not live up to its photo on the restaurant website or to the prices the meal commanded- very little Prosciutto and cheese to where I was mostly eating bread. The arugula was generously tossed on it seems right before serving. I also ordered a half Caesar salad. The salad was very wilted, and tasted like it was from a larger batch that must have been made hours before- not fresh or crisp. There are so many other good restaurant choices in Tucson, I will not be returning to this one.
