When you walk into Bamante's the first thing that hits you is the aroma of classic Italian food. Most notably the smell of garlic. The waiters are all very knowledgable and if you are a regular customer, they will even buy you an after dinner drink. But, the main reason to go is for the food. Any of the specials are terrific. On the main menu, try the pork chops pizziola. Execellent. I highly recommend this place.

Went to Bamonte's on a Saturday night with a group of friends. Service was not good and the food was even worse. Totally un-memorable, bland American-Italian food.

this is the kind of place where you feel like singing and draging everyone you know to eat at this oldfashion place. after eating here you can understand why being withs friends or family and eating and drinking is one of the joys of living..like naples or southern italy this place sings....

Bamonte's is the quintessential Brooklyn Italian restaurant. This century old restaurant has always been family run and it shows in the quality and service you receive. Escarole and Potatoes are made to perfection. Anything you order as a main entree will be great. The recipes are time tested. The Kitchen, which you can see, is immaculate. If every restaurant was this meticulous health inspectors and food critics would be out of a job. Entree portions are not gigantic so get some delicious appetizers. Don't worry, in this case, its definitely quality over quantity. Ask Jack Nicholson and Mike Piazza what they think about the Veal. Bon appetit!
