Amato's stimulating interior design.
Do you like watching the birds fly when you eat or do you prefer privacy during meals? Weird question, right? You may have noticed restaurants either have big open windows that look outside or else have the glasses covered up. The smarter ones play it safe by having them both.
Having a seat that faces the window or the wall is just as important as the food quality. Small things like a leaf for garnishing turns a simple dish into a mouthwatering fantasy. I stumbled upon a restaurant that really pushed my taste buds into "experiencing" more than "tasting" with its incredible interior design. Here is Amato.
The first thing I noticed was how vast the restaurant felt. The place felt big and not constricting. It felt free. High ceilings and a common white-colored theme really helped establish that emotion. Initially, it felt minimalistic with the white chairs and pillars. Only after did I place my order I started to notice the well-designed chaos which filled this hall.
There is a coziness to this place. It was the comfortable chairs that reminded me of home or maybe it was the red checkered table cloth. A few seemingly scattered bookshelves littered the restaurant. It is well lit yet not too bright.
The continuous use of white both in furniture and design successfully pulled off the illusion of making this place bigger than it seems. It was perfect for someone like myself who likes open spaces. A freeing dining experience.
But Amato isn't minimalistic at all. Zigzag off-white tiles then turn into wooden tiles which line the ends of the restaurant. On one side the wall has a laid brick design and on the other end a plain white wall filled with white ceramic cutlery.
Seems like every inch of this place was carefully designed to keep the mind stimulated. The roof was a false ceiling with what looked like multiple layers. Brown ceiling with white accents. I really liked the use of shapes to make it so dynamic. Clever use of beams to create a simple geometric shape and make a clear way for the AC.
I really loved the disintegrated falling cube and the cylindrical hanging lights. They were very neat and nice to look at. The most I enjoyed was the view I had from my table.
I had a beautiful view of the main road from the full-height windows. Natural light filled my table. Right across was yet another wall that was beautifully designed to add to the homey cozy vibe. Plant pots, wax candles, lanterns, picture frames, and all the shebang.
It was like sitting in a living room on steroids. Very cozy and friendly atmosphere. I bet it took a lot of decision-making and trials to pull this off. The restaurant pushes a comfortable experience through its design itself.
Amato is a double stories restaurant. The ground floor is one side open and freely designed. The other side is lined with pillars with windows that provide a little more privacy. It has a more vintage touch to it. The same theme follows all the way to the top hall.
I believe design is very crucial. A single green leaf on top of a delicious curry makes it that much more appetizing, and a brilliantly designed restaurant makes the experience that much more enjoyable.

Hi there, I love how you described what you have seen and experienced at Amato, it makes me want to read more.
By the way, are those cups and saucers on a wall on the first three photos?
yes they are!
One wall had cups and saucers, on the other wall there's a whole shelf of things. pretty interesting concept.
I did go to another place where they hung silverware.
Oh, I like to see a photo of it if you have one (^_^)
I'll take a pic when I am there next time
Can't wait to see (^_^) thanks.
Hello @blind-spot. That's an incredibly spectacular restaurant interior! Its double-level vertical space makes the inner atmosphere truly spacious that it transmits a heavenly feeling to the diners within. I might not be able to focus on my meal if I was there because I'll be super busy gazing at the marvelous architectural details that surround that establishment plus the stunning views outside, haha. A complete feast for the senses indeed.
I had lots of fun dining there. It did feel very nice. The best thing about the view outside is that it is the road that brings people into the city. There is a lot to see within the numerous tourists and logistic vehicles.
I did take my time with the food. I enjoyed the interior view but didn't stay too long to make it awkward.
Oh, that's cool. Looks like a really interesting place to hang out for a while. Happy weekend!
Hello friend, it really looks friendly and very big, here we have few restaurants that are so big, I like the white and the decoration and if the food was good much better, the views are not bad, but can you imagine a beach with the sea dancing? haha we want it all
happy Sunday
Oh yes we indeed want it all. But if on the beach then I don't want to be restricted with walls or windows. I want it open. That would be lovely!
Hi @blind-spot! You don't know how in love I was with Amato! It's a place that invites you to relax. I imagine myself there sitting at a table enjoying a nice cup of tea or coffee... and why not? A delicious glass of wine, with good company. It is a romantic, warm, familiar place.
I enjoyed every photo and every detail, its ceiling lamps, its cups and plates in that corner, its checkered tablecloths, the details of each corner, with its blankets, the paintings, the flowerpots... My God, it is a splendid place!
I agree with you. Just a cup of coffee at this place would feel very relaxing. The interior is surely one of the best I have seen in a restaurant.
Well done @blind-spot! We're happy to inform you that this publication was specially curated and awarded RUNNER-UP in Architecture Brew #43. Congratulations!
