Now, I’ve always said that Italian food is like a good underdog story—it’s all about the heart you put into the sauce. My visit to Antonio’s on a Tuesday night was quieter than a library during a mime convention, but boy, did it have that authentic Italian spirit.
The Scouting Report
The Warm-Up: We kicked things off with these warm biscuits. They were fluffier than a newborn golden retriever and came with a side of that olive green seasoning. It’s the kind of start that makes you forget your worries, even if just for a minute.
The Main Event: I tackled the Chicken Tortellini. It came drenched in a light, creamy sauce that knew its role—it was complimentary and supportive, like a good assistant coach, never trying to hog the spotlight.
The Portion Size: Listen, you’d better come hungry. This plate had more staying power than a Premier League veteran. I couldn’t even finish it all!
The “Room for Improvement”
I’ll be honest with ya—getting into the booths felt a bit like trying to fit a size 10 foot into a size 6 boot. There were maybe three or four inches between my belly and the table. It’s a bit of a squeeze, folks! If you’re built like a linebacker, you might feel like a sardine in a tin.
The MVP
The young lady waiting on us was a total gem. Kind, sharp as a tack, and knew that menu inside and out. That’s the kind of “people-first” attitude we love to see.
Final Whistle: I truly enjoyed the vibe and the flavors. I’d definitely head back for a second leg of this journey—I’ll just be sure to request a table where my ribs have a little more breathing room!

Creamy garlic salad dressing was excellent, bread was warm and perfect, husband’s ravioli were good, my aglio e olio was similar to Italy’s (I grew up in Italy).

I went into this restaurant thinking that I would just be visiting another local Italian restaurant. I came out having THE BEST ITALIAN MEAL I have ever had!!! What a gem! From the crab cakes and calamari, mushroom soup to the salmon and fettuccine Alfredo…I am not sure you could pick anything that you won’t love here! I was guilty of sampling my husbands and I was just as impressed! Can’t wait to go back!!

I’ve tried lots of Italian this past year and this place by far was the best! Really enjoyed all of it!

We ordered a huge catering order. We needed to feed 50 people, this could have fed 80 or more. We had so much leftovers for people to take home- and they loved the food. Restaurant business is tough now of days and we were so happy with our order. Pasta, chicken cutlet, cannoli, fresh bread. So good. Thank you Antonios

Service was good, but the food is overpriced crap out of a jar, no kidding. The Alfredo was absolutely atrocious, bland as could be, had a thick strange paste like appearance and texture. No one in our group liked the food and all agreed we’ll never go back. We miss Antonio.

The entire restaurant smelled like a bathroom and/or mold. The bathrooms looked like they hadn’t been cleaned in a month.
The service took a very long time and we were only one of two tables there on a Saturday afternoon. 2 hours for a group of 11 with young children is insane.
The food was cooked to order, but was very bland and lacked much flavor.

Homemade Italian food in a family owned Italian restaurant, what more could you ask for? Be prepared to take your time at a sit down restaurant and have a conversation while eating fresh bread dipped in olive oil and pesto, or soup and salad while waiting for your main course. Fine wine, full bar, cloth napkins, the full sit down restaurant experience that’s still cost less than the last time we went to a sit down chain.

Very dated look and menu
Our waitress was very polite
Prices are very high for the food quality.
Id say this is about the same level as olive garden

This has been a go to restaurant for my family for years. But on my last visit I found myself incredibly disappointed in this establishment. My partners steak ordered medium rare was completely raw on the inside. We pointed this out to the server saying so and she offered to have them cook it again, we initially declined because it was already a bit late. She insisted and took it back to the kitchen for about 10mins and returned it completely unchanged. My partner ended up boxing raw steak to finish cooking at home.Shocked that noone approached us to try to make this situation right, despite the fact we voiced our displeasure to our waitress. We will not be returning anytime soon.
