Amedeo Restaurant & Lounge
About This Spot
Stepping into Amedeo Restaurant & Lounge feels much like returning to a beloved neighborhood sanctuary—where the rush of the day slows and the warmth of genuine hospitality gently unfolds. It’s a space that invites you to settle in at your own pace, whether you’re easing into a quiet evening or catching up with friends over carefully crafted drinks. The air carries the mingling aromas of wood-fired pizza and hearty sauces, setting a comforting tone that echoes home-cooked tradition without pretense.
The atmosphere strikes a thoughtful balance: lowkey but not subdued, cozy yet open. The lounge area offers a relaxed refuge from the typical bar scene, encouraging guests to savor conversation alongside a dark chocolate martini or a bespoke limoncello. Here, attentive but unobtrusive service feels less like formal dining and more like being welcomed at a friend’s table—someone truly glad to share their craft and space.
What unfolds on your plate mirrors this sentiment of care and authenticity. Classic favorites arrive with a touch of individuality, from their pepperoni and spinach pizza to silky fusilli bathed in rich, house-made sauces. The comfort of a chicken parmigiana sandwich or the satisfying heft of an angus beef burger is tenderly balanced by thoughtful salads and antipasti that speak to the kitchen’s respect for tradition and fresh ingredients.
More than a meal, Amedeo offers moments that feel closely held—a haven where the simple joy of familiar flavors and warm interaction quietly remind you of the best parts of a local spot. It’s exactly that blend of heart and hospitality that makes this Cranston treasure feel like a genuine corner of home.

Amedeo is a local treasure and exactly what a "hometown Italian restaurant" should be. It’s affordable, authentic, and feels like a genuine hug in the form of food. If you're looking for an amazing meal that truly tastes homemade, skip the big chains and support this incredible local gem.

The perfect place for a chill evening out. The bar is *excellent* to drink at and enjoy a plate of apps. Too many bars feel like a feedlot, everything all crammed together. You can actually relax and enjoy one of their bespoke limoncellos. Low-key and cozy. The staff is professional and attentive without hovering.

Amedeo Restaurant & Lounge in Cranston is truly a hidden gem! From the moment we walked in, we were welcomed with warmth and top-notch service. A big shout-out to Isabella, who was absolutely outstanding—she was running around taking care of multiple tables, yet always kept a smile on her face. She made sure we were well taken care of the entire time, and it was clear she genuinely cares about her guests. Joe was equally fantastic, always ready to lend a hand and keeping a watchful eye to make sure everyone was happy. When Amedeo himself walked in, it was no surprise to see him being his usual professional and kind self, greeting guests and ensuring that the atmosphere was nothing short of perfect. The entire experience was warm, welcoming, and filled with positive energy. If you’re looking for a restaurant with amazing food, friendly staff, and a truly inviting atmosphere, look no further than Amedeo’s. Highly recommend—this place is a must-try! Thank you to Isabella, Joe, and Amedeo for making our night so special.

Chicken parm was delicious! You can’t go wrong with Alfredo or pink vodka sauce.

Just wanted to shout out the bartender tonight who was taking care of the whole house. He got to us quickly, served our drinks quickly, was polite and friendly. Watching him get to everyone almost exactly when they needed him was a treat to see. Great atmosphere, calm and inviting. Love this little gem, all local clientele having a nice and quiet evening. Definitely worth stopping in and trying food and drinks. Didn’t eat tonight but have before and everything is incredible. Italian nachos are to die for— best appetizer for sure.

If you want some great Italian food , located in the heart of Cranston’s little Italy , you will find Amedeo’s. They have a great menu , great drinks , and a awesome outside patio with live music during the summer. They offer everything from burgers to veal parm. And if you go , you need to try the Italian nachos!! This is a great restaurant , definitely come check this place out
