    Order pizza with thin crust.  Standard crust is way too much dough.  Chicken Rosemary and veal Marsala are delicious.  Dessert is "eh" and service can be slow.  I look past that and consider this one of the best for Elkhart.

    This review is based on one visit on a Saturday night.  The restaurant is a nice place with a good, dark atmosphere.  It is kind of loud (or at least was the night I was there) and not the place I'd go for an intimate dinner.  It was great, though, for me and a couple friends to go and enjoy conversation over dinner.

    The food we had was very good.  As noted by an earlier reviewer, the Tony Russo pizza is a must.  If this was a pizza joint that served only that pizza I'd give it five stars.  We also had the arugula salad.  This was interesting in that it was a very good salad with lots of yummy goodies, but underwhelmed me as an arugula salad (that is, not as much arugula as I wanted).  Also, way too much dressing / oil.  (This became a theme.)  The waitress asked if we also wanted our dinner salads (I figured I was paying for it so why not).  This was basically just romaine lettuce with a couple cucumbers sitting in a lake of olive oil.  Way too much oil.

    Did you notice I haven't mentioned bread?  That's because I had to ask for it at least three times, and it finally came after our entrees; it was very ordinary bread.  I had veal rosemary, which was wonderfully cooked and came in a slightly lemony and very rosemary-y cream sauce -- a delightful entree.  My friends had gnocchi was vodka sauce (rather good, but again, too much oil in the sauce) and lasagna.  The lasagna was good, but the sauce was perhaps a bit too bright.  After our plates were all cleared away the excess of oil was obvious because the table liner and cloth were soaked in it.  It was gross.

    On the whole, the food here was rather good, especially my veal rosemary and the pizza.  Our service, though, was rather poor.  Things came in the wrong sequence, the bread issue, our server never checked on the entrees, and so forth.  Also, when our bills came they did not have our before dinner drinks on them and, deciding to be honest, we alerted the server.  She actually acted sort of irritated that we were making her do more work in altering the bills.  No thank you or anything.

    I am willing to come here again and see if the service is better, but if it isn't I'll probably just stick to carry-out pizza and salad in the future.  Which is a shame, because that veal rosemary was so good.

    There's only one reason this place gets four stars: the Tony Russo Pizza.

    The appetizer size is just $5.99 and is a wondrous and divine meal unto itself: olive oil, fresh basil and oregano, tomatoes, artichoke hearts, chicken, feta, and parmesan on the most delicious crust ever. I dream of this pizza. It's unnaturally good.

    Service and atmosphere are nothing special; it can get a little crowded and the tables are kind of close together. The pasta is fairly pedestrian and the desserts are just okay. But go for the Tony Russo pizza and you'll thank me later.

    to everyone out there, don't listen to Vincent G on this restaurant. You can't judge this place if you've only been there once. it is amazing! I would recommend the four cheese spinach ravioli and the Rosemary pizza! I've gone there all throughout my life and it is so good!  go there. You won't regret it!

    Antonio's is great. To me it is an Elkhart institution. It's also one of the only Italian restaurants in Elkhart that hasn't moved into a strip mall. The pizzas are awesome here and remind me of what pizzas in the Tuscany region of Italy taste like. I've never had a bad meal here and the service is always good. They make you feel like family. Dinner can be a bit slow, but hey, that is the Italian pace. If you haven't tried Antonio's, it's worth a trip, even from South Bend.  Prices are competetive.  P.S. Try the Tony Russo Special

    Haven't had a bad meal here yet! Reasonable prices, good service, great food. They were very accomodating when we had a large group for a birthday party but had separate checks.
