About

Amato’s is a family‑run Sicilian restaurant nestled in Carlisle’s historic quarter, just steps from the Cathedral and Castle. Since 2015, brothers Filippo and Rosa have been serving authentic Italian dishes that echo their heritage and the flavours of Sicily. From creamy pastas to fresh seafood, every dish is prepared in the open kitchen with fresh, locally sourced ingredients. The menu also caters to special dietary needs, offering a wide range of gluten‑free options, and includes a children’s menu for families. A relaxed happy‑hour between 12‑2 pm and 5‑6 pm lets diners enjoy light drinks and small plates at reduced prices. With friendly staff, a cozy family atmosphere, and a commitment to high‑quality, reasonably priced food, Amato’s is a favourite spot for locals and visiting foodies alike.
