Friendly staff food pizza will deff stop by again when in the area. Had four diff slices all good!

Pizza picked up (early) was cold and uncooked. Wish it was better but very disappointed with the quality of the cooking of the pizza.

Recently went to visit my Mum in Amherst and it was too hot to cook, so we ordered Antonio's last Friday, 7/3/26 for dinner as I also grew up in Amherst and my Mum wanted to make my trip memorable. We ordered the garden salad pizza from the Belchertown location. The pizza was ready on time which was great however, to our dismay, when we arrived home, the pizza turned out to be utterly inedible. It was absolutely burnt on the bottom. Now I have had my share of stone charred pizza in my day, but this?! Come on. I called to relay to the staff which I was put on the phone with manager Amanda. She then in turn decided to tell me how I should have told them to undercook the pizza so that it doesn't come out burnt in the future based on the amount of toppings. I work in the hospitality industry at a prestigious winery in Napa, CA, and to receive service like this after poor product; basically being told it was our fault? Not how I wanted to remember my old childhood hangout at all. Sorry Antonio's, thanks for refund, but felt disappointed. read more

I went in expecting very good if not great pizza. What I got was meh. A slice of mushroom and a slice of pepperoni. Very tasteless. I knew I should have left when the pizzas looked like they had been sitting around a while. Why have so many choices when you cannot deliver on quality. The crust was the most disappointing part of the pizza. Not very tasty and it was like cardboard. I guess they count on the college kids who are used to eating frozen pizza. Too bad for everyone else. read more

I have the utmost respect for this little pie shop. The workers are the best and always accommodate to the populous of Amherst no matter the hour. The variety of pizza does wonders for the mind. I landed on honey mustard chicken, and , maybe it was my mistake to pick this flavor but it wasn't mind blowing. Needed a little more honey must of you will. Don't get me wrong it wasn't bad, I just aspire for more must. Musty if you will. But I love this place and I think when in Amherst hit up the za za. This slice: 7/10 This place: infinity /10 read more

Antonio's is an Amherst classic. I very much enjoyed it there as a student in Amherst more than two decades ago, and still visit annually. It's always my first stop whenever I visit. Their cheese or pepperoni slices are as close to New York quality as you can find anywhere outside the tri-state area; wonderful crust, excellent sauce, and perfect cheese ratio. Given the number of bars and college students in town, they do enough business to constantly churn out fresh pies so you're likely to get something that's come right out of the oven. It's got just enough of the rushed New York mentality to match their near New York quality, yet a chill enough vibe to remind you that you're still in "The Valley" - so kudos to their awesome staff. As of my last visit, they have switched to Pepsi products, which is even better. They do have a massive selection of creative toppings as well. Many traditional pizza purists may disagree, but most of the ones I've tried are very good too, and they're always fresh. Overall, it's the best pizza joint in one of the world's greatest college towns, which is saying a lot. read more

A friend brought me here after going to a butterfly conservatory and it was a nice day out. A few steps from a cute book store. Walked in and the place smelled so good. Friendly staff greeted us. It was my first time going. I had worries my stomach would be unhappy due to sensitivities with red sauce but this pizza was amazing. It wasn't too acidic. I LOVED the Sicilian slice so much. Definitely coming back again. Thank you!! read more

The pizza is great but the delivery service is severely lacking! Getting food delivered to the UMass campus is almost impossible. I've placed a few orders this Spring for campus events and each time the food showed up very late and to the wrong location. It seems like the drivers don't have the right resources or something. Also requested plates and napkins and did not receive. read more

Excellent pizza by the slice place, where you can order up a whole bunch a la carte. Kudos for multiple vegetarian options, and all sorts of fancy pants invented slices, but they also have the standards for your fans of the classics (helllooooo pepperoni). It's a thinner, not-quite-New York style of crust, and be aware if you get one of the more heavily topped variations, you'll have to fold the pizza to be able to consume it without dumping the contents off. I tend to like the varieties that have fewer numbers of toppings for this reason, but either way you're not going to get cheated in terms of quantity. They are huge slices and they do not skimp on toppings. It's a bit chaotic inside with a very awkward ordering system and seriously limited seating capacity, so you're probably best off ordering ahead and picking up to go, but on the other hand there's a certain ambiance to a super popular college town pizza spot that can't be reproduced anywhere else. Definitely a destination. read more

Came to this little shop in downtown Amherst. There weren't many people when I first came in but as the evening went on, there was a steady flow of customers. They don't really have any prices but essentially you go up to order your pizza and they heat it up for you. - Spinach Ricotta - I appreciate how many ingredients they put on this pizza and I think that portabella mushrooms were a great add to this. To be honest, I didn't find the pizza particularly memorable in terms of the flavor but I do like the diversity of ingredients here. - White - Could skip. I feel like this pizza was a little bit too cheesy for my taste and there wasn't enough sauce so the pizza itself felt a little dry. I did appreciate the sprinkles of ricotta but I wish they put more in here. I was honestly not the biggest fan of their crust as it was a little bit too chewy and cardboard-y for my taste. To be honest, I do feel like I ordered the wrong pizzas. I think next time I will try their avocado quesadilla or buffalo chicken slices. I will say though that these two slices filled me up quite a bit as the quantity was huge. read more

Best pizza place in Amherst!! Will only serve pizza slices, not whole pies after 9:30pm but it is only to increase their service speed for drunk and hungry college kids. My boyfriend and I love getting a large pizza with mushrooms, sausage, and pepperoni. The pizza is soo good and will fill you up for multiple meals. The restaurant itself doesn't have too much room for sitting, especially with a whole pizza so most take it to go. The staff are always kind and patient as well. Once we called for a whole pizza close to their cutoff time and the guy on the phone said that they were about to stop making whole pies but if we ordered over phone right there, they could still make it for us! read more

If you're in Amherst, Antonio's is THAT pizza spot everyone will go to. It always hit the spot when I went to UMASS whenever I was craving late night pizza! The pizza is thin and crispy and pippin hot!! I usually get the Chicken Bacon Ranch or BBQ Chicken! A slice is about ($3.95) and the ranch on the Chicken Bacon pizza is so addicting. If you're in the area or go to school here, it's must to at least try Antonio's once. On weekends especially late at night, the line will be out the door no doubt. You'll eventually get your pizza though pushing through a lot of drunk college people, so I recommend getting it during the day or before 12am read more

I used to come here all the time as a kid, it was a family favorite. I stopped in just for old time's sake, and was happy to see the counter looked just the same, packed with a ton of different slices that are unique to Antonio's. They have every type of pizza imaginable. The staff was very polite and helpful, and seemed to enjoy their work environment. I ordered a tomato, basil + mozzarella slice with red sauce, and it was nearly perfect taste. The ingredients were stuffed and fresh. But the slices could be slightly larger. Ambience: 3/5 Food: 4/5 Service: 5/5 Antonio's: 4/5 read more

Dry, cardboard pizza that looks and tastes like it's been sitting there for hours and maybe don't let employees work while they're drunk...

So yummy! Huge variety of pizza by the slice. Reasonable prices and friendly service! Plus, $3 slices on Wednesdays!!

Solid pizza, especially after a few beers. Filled the void. Ingredients appeared fresh. Will get another pizza when I'm in town

Best pizza I have had in a long time. Staff was just as great as the pizza. And priced just right!!

This has been a classic pizza place since I went to Umass Amherst (foreverago) and I couldn't resist swinging by when we were in the area. Despite all these years I can still see why it's open and bustling despite these COVID times (it was never really a sit down establishment anyways). The crust is firm but delicate and has a awesome crunch to it. I recommend both the squares and the normal slices. The tomato basil pizza was surprisingly excellent and I highly recommend it if you're in the area! The staff is great and will give you time to look at the (what feels like dozens) slices available for you to try! read more

We came here after my partner's cousin, who attends college at Amherst, had been hyping up this place and it definitely met the hype! I tried the Chicken Bacon Ranch, Beef Taco, and Tomato Pesto. All tasted really good, but what surprised me the most was the Tomato Pesto which turned out way better than I expected since I usually like some protein on my pizza. read more

Local to Amherst, I grew up eating Antonio's pizza for a good part of my life. I no longer live in this area but whenever I'm back in Amherst, I hit up the childhood joints. These guys have so many varieties of pizza, it's just incredible. These are not your everyday finds either. My personal favorites over the years are the Chicken Bacon Ranch, Buffalo Chicken, Spicy Chicken, Chicken Parmesan & Honey Mustard Chicken. Yes, that's a lot of chicken options but they also have a ton of vegetarian and red meat options as well! The last two times I have been there, which were about a year apart - it just didn't taste the same. I'm not sure if the recipes changed, not putting the same level of effort into it, or if I have so much more pizza to compare against but it just didn't have that wow factor I remember. The crust was kinda hard and cardboardy, the cheese not enough nor properly melted. It all just felt really average unfortunately. I really hope I caught them on off days (twice?) and hope the next time I go, it will live up to the expectations I remember them to meet. read more

Pizza was pretty good. Came out fast. It gets super crowded during peak times (mainly Friday and Saturday nights).

I have loved Antonio's since high school. Chicken parm is a classic. Black bean avocado doesn't disappoint. Lots of delicious specials. Move all the way in to order. read more

Okay and fairly rated. The variety was plentiful. The tortellini pizza was very thin and crispy and tasted great but it's nothing to rave about. Service was alright and seating was limited but they are very fast. Would come back. read more

What can we say? I missed Antonio's so much since college! So, so, so delicious. My partner had it for the first time and we had it three times in a weekend - wowza. Pizza wasted. We tried veggie, spinach & feta, steak burrito and the by far favorite was chicken bacon ranch (yup. Seriously.) SICILIAN (because again we tried both styles) was the champ. If you're in town go to the OG in Amherst and you won't be disappointed. read more

We were HUGE fans of Antonio's for several years and introduced friends and family from far and wide to them. We suspect management has changed because their pizza is no longer the same recipe. No longer the buttery, flavorful, olive-oiled crust or zippy pico de gallo and tasty tomatoes. We are disappointed that the quality and deliciousness here have so fallen by the wayside. We're still in search of another pizza restaurant to take their place and have yet to find one as great as the original Antonio's. Very sad and disheartening. read more

Visiting Amherst... Quick lunch stop here, and I was blown away by the creativity. We tried 3 different slices (deep dish cheese, avocado/mozz/red pepper/pesto, and chicken/pepperoni) and all were terrific. The dough was fresh and cooked to perfection. One slice was plenty for lunch! The place was packed when we came in, mostly empty when we left, but seems to have a lot of regulars and a loyal following. Definitely good stuff. read more

This is the best New York style pizza place in all of western Mass!! I would highly recommend this place to anyone!!

There are literally TONS of slices to choose from. You might get overwhelmed, but you will find something interesting to try. It's almost worth going just to see the different flavor combos they come up with. It's nuts. We ordered 7 different slices and the best was the BBQ chicken bacon ranch. It's a rectangle slice. The crust wasn't as good as the regular pie slices. It's a thicker crust that tastes different. The topping flavors worked really well together though and made up for the crust. The warm ranch sounds gross but really pulled it all together in a great way. Seating is very limited. It seems like there is a heavy take-out contingency here. They do take credit cards so no worries if you have no cash. Not the best pizza I've ever had but it was a fun place to check out. read more

Antonio's is one of the reasons I came to UMass Amherst. Okay, maybe not actually, but this place is seriously so. good. I am obsessed with unique pizza's and combinations and Antonio's is exactly that. You can get huge slices with so many different topping combinations. Some of my favorites are the pesto tortellini pizza, chicken parmesan pizza and of course, the classic buffalo chicken. Not to be dramatic, but I think they have the best buffalo chicken pizza I've ever had. They're prices are good and they also stay open super late on weekends which is perfect for college students when they need some late night slices! read more

This is my pizza shop. Literally. I was born across the street. I used to work there. My picture used to hang on the wall. Today I went in for the first time in months. In 30 years I had the worst service I've ever had at this or any pizza shop anywhere in the world. Who hired these bozos? It seemed like the customers were an inconvenience. Nobody was paying attention to the customers - instead standing there talking to each other. They stood there and ignored six people waiting to order. I had to ask them if they were taking orders. They burned my pizza (and that's even WITH me telling him to take it out the over because it had been too long). Embarrassing. Y'all are falling off. Fix this. Somebody from management contact me after this issue has been handled and I will change this review. read more

Antonio's just brings me so much comfort and joy. I've been going here for years due to its proximity to UMass. Their buffalo chicken Sicilian pizza is next level - such a crispy base packed with so much chicken and blue cheese. I go back here at least once a week - so good! read more

I came here late at night after landing in Hartford and coming to Amherst for a graduation at Hampshire. If you've gong graduated and been gone, know this: this place is louder and drunker than you remember. Now that I'm over 30? Baby, I cant. I got my slice and ran to my hotel! The pizza was as good as I remember. They have limited options after midnight, though, it seems. read more

Antonio's is such a classic spot in Amherst that I feel like a review is unnecessary. This is the go-to pizza for students in Amherst, especially because they are open late. It is a classic Amherst night when you go out to the bars and then get antonio's as a snack. My true rating would be a 3.5 Ive tried many of their flavors but my favorite will always be the chicken bacon ranch. The reason that this place is a 3 instead of a 4 is because of inconsistency. Even if I get the same flavor, it will be a little different. Sometimes, there is sooooo much ranch that it overpowers the rest of the toppings. Sometimes, the crust is too crispy or doughy. Chicken Bacon Ranch: it is a saucy pizza with bbq saice and ranch. All the flavors go really well together! It is definitely on the indulgent side of pizzas so just a slice is good enough for me. I also put a lot of red pepper flakes to balance out the heaviness. Don Giovanni, another popular flavor, is also pretty good. But I think it's bland and lacks a little bit of a punchy flavor. Spinach Ricotta was also bland but super salty. Long time ago, they had a special seafood pizza and that has to be my favorite. It sucked that it is not part of their regular menu. I would say that your best bet is on the chicken bacon ranch! read more

Antonio's is probably one of the best small town pizza shop I've ever been to. Each pizza is made beautifully and are SO delicious. Seriously good. The staff are super nice. The space is super small. There's barely any sitting space but you're only eating a couple slices of pizza at a time so they don't expect you to be hanging around for hours. Also, the day we went the A/C was broken (it was STEAMING in there) and it was 95° out - still didn't ruin our experience though and they've probably already fixed the thing already. Expect parking in the street. Definitely worth a trip if you're driving around Amherst or if you're a college student! read more

We smelled the food from up the street and searched for it. Amazing. I got the quesadilla slice. Best pizza slice ever. Great service, too.

Three years later, I've got a college student in Amherst who eats here several times a year and wonders why Dad's previous review was so harsh. And I do have a greater appreciation today. This is starving-college-student-pizza meaning you can get a full meal atop a reasonably chewy crust which might be the salad pizza (what it sounds like, everything but the iceberg lettuce and I'm sure they're figuring out a way to incorporate that) or the taco pizza with crumbled tortilla strips. Or you can get a basic favorite like cheese or pepperoni and it will be a solid version of this standard. The ordering system is also a marvel, with props to the educated clientele as much as the staff. There is a huge assortment of pies on display and you tell them what you want as you get to the front of the line that snakes in and then out of the narrow ordering space then they pop that in to heat and simultaneously replace your chosen slice with a new one from a massive vertical hotbox. 3 minutes later, you're good to go. I had a bit of difficulty matching up the pizzas with the descriptions on the blackboard so resorted to "I want the one with artichokes and olives" (that would be the Greek Salad) or "I want the one with peppers and onions". They could simplify this with a numbering system but I'm sure they aren't going to mess with tradition and ordering confidently at Antonio's is a mark of an Amherst pro. But, at the end of the day, the pizza is only average. Better than a chain, but not approaching the level of a place like Frank Pepe's. Also, the specialties are oddly under salted, at least to my taste. read more
