    Chicken parmigiana
    Aileen B.

    Though we live nearby, we haven't frequented Antonio's for a few reasons. Our latest experience this past Sunday is a good example of why. We were not greeted upon walking in, and the host had his back to us while talking on the phone for 3-5 minutes. Nobody acknowledged us or told us it'd be just a minute. After being seated, it took 8-10 minutes before a waiter stopped by to tell us he'd be with us soon. Service was exceedingly slow and often non-existent from that point forward. The waiter was very polite and friendly when he did come to the table though. The chicken parmigiana was ok, but overpriced for the portion, and the breading lacked flavor and texture. I was surprised there was a $3 upcharge for a Caesar salad in place of their tossed salad. Because the food is so salty, the roof of my husband's mouth is still raw two days later. The dining room is brightly lit regardless of the time of day, and there is plenty of seating, with both tables and booths available. The private parking lot is fuller than one would expect from a restaurant that has three stars on Yelp. We'll continue driving to Luigi's in Livonia for chicken parmigiana since we've never hit a home run for service or food at Antonio's.

    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.

    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.

    Seafood Manicotti - the photo doesn't do it justice.

    Antonio's has just the food you need on a frigid Michigan evening. Creamy pasta, warm, fluffy bread and bracing cocktails that somehow make that biting wind less intense. I started with a delicious chocolate martini, then split the baked mushrooms with my husband. For an entree, I chose the ample seafood manicotti, stuffed with shrimp and crabmeat. I may never be hungry again. Oh, well, sure I will ... and I'll be back!!

    Veal Marsala with homemade fettuccine

    Discovered Antonio's a number of years ago Never disappointed. This family ran restaurant's staff make you happy to be there. They serve THE most delicious meals. Our last visit, on Valentine's Day was made especially enjoyable by the very friendly Joe Had the best time ever and thoroughly enjoyed my delicious veal Marsala

    Chicken Pastina - very bland.
    Jessy R.

    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.

    Complimentary Birthday Dinner

    I recently had a joint birthday and graduation celebration at this location, and the service was phenomenal! The staff we were in contact with; Scott, Nolan, Kim, Joe, and Maria; were very accommodating and had a great sense of humor, and the food came out quickly and with quality. My party of 30 was placed in a banquet room, and we were given extra time before and after our reserved hours to prepare and close out. Placing reservations at this location was extremely easy compared to the other possible restaurants we had contacted, and we're definitely coming back!

Their meat sauce is sooooooo good! Today I tried the meat tortalenni however you spell it. lol it was soooo good. They give you a generous amount of food always. My husband got the veal paramesian which was out of this world! This place is always busy and it's because their food is excellent. Today we had Johnna as our waitress and I tipped her $20 because she so sweet and so very kind. I love that girl like my own daughter and watched her grow up into such a lovely and beautiful young lady. To the owners of this restaurant I always wish you well! Please please, please never close! You're the only Italian place I love in Canton. If anything knock out another wall next door and make the place bigger you always seem to do such great business there and always busy we are there. All of the other Italian restaurants in Canton don't even come close to your food! Thank you for such excellent food! We will always eat here! If any of you get a break you should try Roma's in Southgate, Michigan their food is pretty close to yours.

    Overdue for an update! Recently I've enjoyed a few different experiences here and all of them have…read morebeen solid. The first was delivery and it arrived perfectly prepared and exactly as ordered. I went with the seafood pasta and my family split an order or arancini. Everything was excellent. A few weeks later I came back through for dinner with some friends and we landed on the heated patio. It was cozy and comfortable. We split the bruschetta with prosciutto, goat cheese, and fig spread. Very good! For my entree I went with the asiago baci, little purses of an asiago and ricotta stuffed pasta tossed in a garlic cream sauce with tomatoes and asparagus. So so good! And a nice sized portion as well. For dessert we split a slice of the lemon torte. Light and delicious. The perfect end to the meal. I was there catching up with friends and we definitely moved a little slower ordering (too busy talking!) and our server was really kind and patient with us. A great experience all around.

    I've been back to Nico and Vali's twice within the last month, and was pleased with both visits…read more One our first trip, my husband and I tried the Spaghetti Bolognese and the Short Rib Special. The meatballs in the spaghetti dish were delicious. Flavorful and not dried out. The sauce tasted like it had been cooked with love. I also liked the short rib. The sauce had been elevated with some wine, and the meat was tender and rich. The accompanying potatoes were so creamy. I would order both dishes again. We each got a dessert. My husband got the tiramisu and I got the chocolate cake. I guess the tiramisu was just ok. I loved the chocolate cake. On our second visit, we tried the Rigatoni Caprino and the Chicken Marsala Florentine. Of the two, we liked the rigatoni better. It had that super red sauce on it. The sausage was on point, and the goat cheese complimented the rest of the dish so well. The marsala was good, though my husband I agreed we had both had better. The sauce just lacked something. My husband wasn't that impressed with the Crème Brûlée cheesecake, and wouldn't order it again.
