    Service was not good from the start I asked for bottled water, Italian. The bus person/runner brings us Saratoga and tells me it’s Italian, asked for oil for bread it went to table behind us. Server was clearly overwhelmed as another server offered us her assistance. The server was not attentive and rushed as she took our order, preoccupied looking around and right through us. The saving grace is the food, very good, left over a 20% gratuity because we really felt for them, clearly struggling.

    We eat at Cafe Antonio at least once a month. Our waitress is always friendly, professional and helpful when un decided which entree to order. I also have a gluten allergy and they are very diligent in accommodating my choices. My husband had veal st James and said the veal was tender and the brandy cream sauce was light not over bearing. I had the chef Chris grilled salmon, the salmon was very light not over cooked and the sauce was a very light garlic cream sauce and very good. The noise level at times can be very loud so conversation can be hard at times, that being said I highly recommend Cafe Antonio.

    Two of us had the seafood pasta special which was very good. One friend had prime rib which was really tough - and it wasn't just the fact that she ordered it well done, the meat itself seemed tough. We observed a person at another table sawing his prime rib also.

    Blown away with service. During on-line reservation, I noted a birthday celebration and they remembered and even sang! Food was great. (Get the salmon shrimp crab concoction!) My kid finished a meal. What’s that tell you? We will be back again and again.

    We were seated right away; BUT...we had to wait 20 minutes for a server. This is after I went to the hostess stand and told them that no one had been to our table. They apologized but I feel they should have given us a free drink or something (they didn't). The food and drinks were amazing though. Very loud in the bar area (but it is the bar area). We didn't mind but just in case you are looking for somewhere quieter, sit in the dining area.

    Me and my husband had dinner on a Friday night. The place was very busy but we still had great service. The food was wonderful. It is a little too noisy we do like it to be a little bit quieter. But we will be back.

    First, our server Ryan, was awesome. Great smile - welcoming personality - a great start to any dining experience. The food was excellent. It was a Friday during Lenten season, so Maryellen and I both had seafood dishes. Mare went with the crabcake, and I chose the stuffed shrimp. Both selections were spot on. A good wine selection and beer selection. We split a cannoli for desert that was delicious! We will tag this spot as a local preference since it is less than 10 minutes from home! NOTE: Small parking lot, so be prepared to be creative with your parking!

    The first time back since they built a bar. Looked forward to checking out the restaurant. We ordered a lemon drop martini . It came out in a glass the size of a rock glass. It was slightly more then half filled. Mentioned it to the server. Nothing was done. We also ordered 2 espresso martinis. They were good but in a glass slightly smaller then a rock glass. I think we paid 12.00 each. The soup was excellent. I ordered veal parm. The veal was thinner the a sheet of paper. I was totally disappointed.

    Had a nice lunch, food was excellent. We had the eggplant parmesan sandwich and sausage and peppers sandwich, both excellent, love their homemade bread and chips. Bar offers wide selection of draft and bottled beers. Service could have been quicker.

    It’s quiet and comfortable. Food is deliciously homemade! Quality Italian cuisine that is local and relaxed feel. We especially enjoyed their caprese app, spinach ravioli AND Tiramisu! They have daily specials that are superb! Ambience is almost romantic and dim lighting. We are now more frequent of Antonio and will continue to suggest to friends and family!

    we liked the food very much, but the services lacking. When we arrived early for our reservation but we were seated quickly. We had to wait about 20 minutes before a waitress. came to our table. There seemed to be confusion about who was supposed to have our table. One waitress did step up and offer to take our order but the service was slow and we were ignored by almost every one. I have been to Cafe Antonio for several years for New Years eve this was first time I was disappointed

    My husband and I had 5:30 reservations, but arrived at the restaurant about 5:05 p.m. - We were seated right away. At that time there were only about 4 tables that were occupied, so it wasn't crowded. The waiter came over [ I was very upset, because he had a bad cold, which I was not happy about at all and should not be waiting on people, etc., but of course I didn't say anything] Thought this was so inappropriate too!!!!! He brought us the shrimp bisque, which was only luke warm, but again, we did not say anything. When it came to the time of 6:00 p.m., we asked him was there a problem with our meal, since we still have not received the meals. He said that salmon takes a long time to cook???? This is not so, because I cook salmon quite frequently. He said he would ask what was going on the 2nd time we asked about our food. HE NEVER GOT BACK TO US. Now it is 6:20 p.m. - no sign of the food or waiter, we left $5.00 to cover the soup and walked out.!!!! We have been going out to restaurants for 42 years and this is the very 1st time we walked out of a restaurant.

    Food here is fantastic. I have written great reviews of this place as it has always been the best. But the service this time was so terribly slow and lacking. It was very crowded tonight but we waited so long for even a drink order then for salads and dinner also. We ordered a second round of drinks which never came but were on the bill. They were taken off but that too took so much time as we waited longer and longer. We were a table of two and sure looked like other tables had much better service. Since the food is so good and service has never been a problem in the past will give this place another try.
