This place is very nice. It is full of helpful, friendly servers. The food is delicious. They have a great selection. I could not eat all my food because the portions are so large. They have very large portions! The bread might very well be the most amazing item they offer, It is so delicious and worth the trip. I had the mostaccioli which had mushrooms and bacon in the sauce which was interesting, yet really good. My mom had soup and salad which was also delicious according to her. I was surprised how loud it would get in there. It was hard to hear people talking at my table because of the noise. This place got full very quick but I had no wait to be seated. I would definitely return to eat here again.

I have been to Antonio's several times and generally have not been disappointed. Service was great and the family dining experience was great. We went at 5 o'clock and the place was just starting to fill up. I'm adding noise reviews now as well, because if you can't talk to one another dining doesn't go well. Noise levels were good. I had the veal Marsala. Flavor and texture were excellent. The pastina soup was good. Bread was excellent, as always. The only quibble I had was my wife's dinner of ravioli was a little dry and didn't have enough "red gravy". All in all we will return.

I have eaten at another location of this local chain so I knew how good the food was so my friends group had one their monthly dinner. Many of the others had eaten at this location before. While most ordered pasta dishes or a pasta salad or salmon, I had my normal, ham and pineapple pizza. Another ordered a different pizza. While the food was wonderful and it was quite enough for our group to talk, the service was a big problem. Slow, not around enough, and another server helped when he heard that one person hadn't gotten his meal. He got us the refills before our server. He saved the day. I am glad we started at 6:30 since even for a Saturday night they closed at 9. Even with the service problem, our group would like to come back.

My family comes here regularly whenever we crave good pasta. Haven't had a bad meal ever- the sauce is so good I've been tempted to lick my plate clean. Even on a busy weekend evening we've never waited more than ten minutes. Keep doing what you guys are doing- we love you!

I really enjoy going to Antonio’s! It’s real Italian food with pasta made from scratch, amazing bread, fresh Italian dressing and great wine! The atmosphere inside is really nice too and you get all of this at affordable prices. Tuesdays are buy one get one half off pasta days, and they have other discounts on wine and pizza on Monday and Wednesdays!

My family is new to the area, so we were looking for an Italian restaurant in our new neighborhood. We heard great things about this restaurant, so we tried carryout a couple of months ago. It was so good, that we decided to try dining in. Everything was excellent! Everything we ordered was authentic and Amazing, starting with the bread. The staff was very friendly. We had the sweetest and most kind server, and the owner came by multiple times to make sure our experience was great. The best part is we didn't break the bank! Very reasonable prices for all of the food and wine we had. It's our new favorite place. We can't wait to come back!

I recently went here with some family members, and I was pleasantly surprised with how good the restaurant looked! I last went here in April, which was when they were revamping the restaurant, and when I came back recently, I really like the way it now looks! I liked the vegetarian lasagna that I got, and I know my family members liked the food that they got!

I love the atmosphere, the food was great our server was Vivian she was amazing! We did go over budget a little bit, but it was worth it. I love the fact that they bring you fresh garlic bread, and it is the best. They even bring your parmesan and oil before you start your meal, definitely coming back!
