I ordered a canzone and antipasto salad. It was amazing, my mouth did the happy dance. Yummy, Yummy for my tummy. I will order it again. BTW, I ate the salad 2 days later, it was still fresh.​

I've been to Antonio's but at another location over a decade ago. It was an unpleasant experience so I never returned. When a friend suggested this location, I was tempted to see if the pasta and bread were as good as I remembered. They were.
It was a Monday evening so I was surprised by the full parking lot and the numerous groups waiting for tables. Neither of the hostesses could explain why it was so busy either. Maybe everyone had a craving for the complimentary bread served here. That was one of my reasons for being here.
While waiting for my friend, I studied the specials featured on the digital menu.
Despite the number of guests, we were fortunate to score a booth. I could not decide between the Fettuccine Alfredo -- I don't see this on menus anymore -- and the seafood linguini. Instead of choosing, the server said the kitchen could do the seafood linguini in an Alfredo sauce. I likely broke a dietary rule there but still went with that. I'm so glad that I did. In addition, I had Caesar's salad with real anchovies. I don't recall exactly what my friend ordered as a main but I enjoyed the Brussels sprouts she got as a side.
Service was lovely.
I will return to this restaurant; I am so glad my friend suggested it.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0 - Mar 26, 2024
I came here just to pick up a slice of tiramisu. It's an Italian dessert so what better place to get it from than an Italian restaurant.
Every person we came into contact with was so friendly and welcoming. As we waited for the tiramisu slice, I noticed an area with different flavors of gelato. The man behind the counter was so gentle and friendly and gave us a sample to try. It was delicious! So I looked over at the cup sizes and prices, boy are they pricey !!!!!! I ended up getting tiramisu and vanilla gelato alongside the slice of tiramisu.
This was a gift for someone, and they couldn't get enough of it saying the flavor for both were phenomenal! They were happy with every bite.Helpful 3Thanks 0Love this 5Oh no 0 - 946114Mar 23, 2024
Whenever anyone asks me where to find good Italian food I point them towards Antonio's. Family, friends, and I have been dining at Antonio's for years and never leave disappointed or hungry. The only downside is their popularity as you may be waiting an hour to be seated during prime time. However, as you wait you can watch homemade pasta be made right by the front door. We love their complimentary bread, homemade pizza, and noodles! Between all of us, we've probably had just about everything on the menu and it's all fantastic! The ambiance makes you feel as though you stepped into an old relatives home (in the best way possible). I save 5/5 stars for places that have succeeded my expectations and Antonio's has done just that time and time again.

Met our wedding photog here for lunch. Did NOT know they were hosting a fundraiser! None the less, that didn't stop our waiter from being attentive. Very beautiful establishment. We sat outside under heaters on a sunny but chilly day. Gluten free pasta was marvelous. So many food choices in general!! Very affordable, plentiful seating and parking

Unfortunately left underwhelmed after dining here. Mainly in part to the seating policy and the food.
We came here on a Monday later in the afternoon following a funeral with a larger sized party. Their seating policy is that they won't seat you until every member of the party has arrived. I can understand this policy during a rush or otherwise, but at the time of day we were here it was pretty dead and were awaiting only 3 additional members to arrive, but couldn't be seated.
We did have great service (only reason why I marked the review a bit higher). Our server and runners were great!
Onto the food - overall everything seemed lacking in flavor and seasoning. Among the soups, the chicken pastina was bland, but the minestrone was the winner and was the most flavorful dish on the table. I personally had the baci and everything from the contents of the ravioli to the sauce lacked flavor. My mom had carbona which was better in flavor, but came out very dry and lacked sauce. I feel like potential is here with the food with more butter, cream, and seasoning. The pasta is homemade here which is a positive. The biggest rave our party had here was for their garlic bread.Helpful 2Thanks 1Love this 1Oh no 1 - Feb 9, 2023
Came here after a burial with all of our family. So the day started off rather grim.
Our group consisted of 11 people, all who were on the way to the restaurant immediately after the burial.
I arrived first and asked for the table. Was told it would be a bit of a wait. No problem, several more of us showed up. I was then told by someone else that we could not be seated until our whole party arrived. There are now enough of us near the door where we are in the way. Just seemed pretty unaccomodating.
Fast forward to service. We were seated, given water, had our drink order taken. Drinks served, several wrong (including alcohol) drinks. The server came back again and asked about appetizers and entrees, we finally asked about bread... which had never come. He said "oh yeah, its on the way" mind you we had been here for close to 30 minutes already.
We put in our apps regardless.
The alfredo dip was amazing, truly the best part of the meal.
The minestrone which the waiter said was their most served dish was alright. The antipasta salad was alright.
I ordered the Angel Hair Carbonara alla Bocelli.
When it made it to me, it was so dry that it was hard to swallow. It needed extra sauce desperately.
Not sure that I would be back unless my group was considerably smaller and extra sauce was ordered.... pretty poor experience.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0Business owner information

Jeremy, I am sorry for your loss and thank you for coming to Antonio's to break bread in memory of your loved one.
In regards to the seating policies we have for groups, this is to ensure that we give proper service. Many times, groups will either show up with less people or more people than they reserve for - compromising the service. I do understand that you do not have control over your guests arriving on-time, but we certainly do not. This can be frustrating, but we do not intend to cause anger. In fact, many businesses today have this policy and many restaurants don't even take groups larger than 8 people.
Our famous bread is served complimentary with your meal. It is not a free appetizer, this is stated on the menu and the servers are here to serve and they will inform the customer that the bread is served complimentary with the soups and salads, if you wish to have bread, it can be ordered as an appetizer and brought out to the table right away.
The Angel Hair Carbonara is a true Carbonara, it is a dish prepared and does not have sauce or alfredo - like the American version. So to have extra sauce is not possible - it is a dish. I am sorry that it was not to your liking.
Thank you and I do hope you come back and try us again.

A great restaurant and I haven't been here in years as I moved away. It was a beautiful day and we ate on the patio. We both chose ravioli Florentine which was delicious and filling. I had enough for another meal. On Friday there was live music which was kind of fun. All the food looked good and it was very popular. They have catering also. I like that they have a separate entrance for catering

Mom and I finally ate here after talking about it for months. We were pretty impressed. They were decently busy for a Thursday night but we got seated right away. Our server was good, though a few things were odd. He came to ask for drinks 5 seconds after we'd sat and hadn't even looked at a menu. We also took our leftovers to go - 2 entrees and 2 bread baskets. And he brought over 2 to-go boxes and boxed up my entree and my mom's bread. We had to ask for more boxes and we got a weird look for it? Not a big deal just odd. The food was good. Mom liked her lasagna. I got the pesto pasta with gluten free pasta. I appreciate the gf option but it was a bit undercooked. But I'm not fussed because gf pasta sucks to cook. We each got salad - that contained 1 piece of tomato and 1 slice of cucumber each. I get it prices are up....but really? The bread baskets were good. I got a separate gf bread basket for myself for $5 which is pricey but so worth it. The bread was delicious. It is a pricier place so we won't be back too often but it was good. My only big complaint was how hot it was. I get it, a kitchen actively cooking. But it was HOT. Enough so that it was uncomfortable at times. At some point I think they put the air on and it helped. But then the wild temp swings were a lot to deal with.
