Amato's Franchise Information

Real Italian Food That Makes Life a Little Easier

With over a hundred different varieties of pizza, pasta, salads and sandwiches on our menu, Amato's is the perfect escape from a boring meal. "Real Italian" is the way we describe all the food on our menu, but it's also the name of our incredibly popular signature sandwich that has become a veritable Icon.

Created in 1903, Amato's "Real Italian" is today universally craved by countless customers from every age, sex, race and socioeconomic status. It's somewhat messy, surprisingly tangy and altogether different from any sandwich you've ever had.
