    Little Italian looking corner
    David C.

    Great pizza if you're in the area. I was walking around downtown when I saw the pizza place. They have pizza (obviously), pasta, and sandwiches. I ended up getting their lunch special, which is either one slice and a drink or two slices and a drink. I went with the two slices. One pineapple and ham (Hawaiian), and the other was pepperoni and jalapeño. Both slices were good. The dough wasn't too soft or too hard. The cheese was perfect and the toppings had good flavor. I must say that the jalapeños have been spicy both times I've selected them as toppings. That's good if you enjoy spicy foods like me. Service is great. During the lunch rush hour, they could get busy especially because they are close to the courts and you see a lot of people wearing juror badges so it is a hot spot for lunch. I must say that they move quick though. The pizzas keep coming out fresh from the oven and the lines continue to keep moving. The ambiance in general is like a typical pizza place and one corner kind of looks like they recreated a small village in Italy with shutters and background. The sitting area is regular with some booths available and plenty of seating outside in their patio. You can also take the pizza to go and eat it along the walkway there in downtown . Either way, you can't go wrong with their pizza and the local vibe:

    I came and got two slices of pizza. If you are coming for just a slice you have to choose from what they have available. I'm lucky they had one slice of pepperoni and jalapeno. It tasted really good and the ranch has a thicker consistency and was also good.

    All meat pastrami

    Awful all -meat pastrami sandwich for $14. It's super salty !I Meat was already salty but it's an over kill w the heavy mustard & pickles. Not even edible ! The cashier even has an attitude. I only chose this place bc it's by the courthouse & there's not many food places around here. The only positive thing is their availability of indoors tables & a nice server.

    Needing a quick bite and post race meal after doing the Mission Inn Run half marathon, Antonious Pizza Cafe did not disappoint. I had their daily pizza slice and drink special. It was a good value and freshly made as you can see the chefs through a glass window in the back of the cafe preparing the pies and subs. They have "Thrifty Ice Cream" onsite too! I would have had some, if not having a shake the night prior at another local spot while staying in Downtown Riverside. Seating area inside is not large, but they have an outside patio in front as well with heaters for colder weather.

    Have been coming here for about 10 years now. My father in law took us here after watching the fireworks show during the holidays. Instantly, we got hooked. Quality of the pizza and wings are great, pricing isn't too bad, and the best part is, the pizza is freshly made and brought to you sizzling. The only downside is that they don't offer Bacon as a topping, but everything else a regular pizza place offers they offer. XL pizza, chicken, peperroni, mushrooms, Jalapeño and extra cheese! I was just there last week, and quality is just as good as day one! I recommend bringing your family and friends! XL pizza feeds 4 hungry fellas!

    Do they have vegan options?

    We have several vegan dishes. When you can order a pizza without cheese and it's actually pretty good just make sure you ask them to give it a clean cut that way they will wash the blades so it will not touch any Animal product. We also have Falafel… Read more

I've *never* had to wait longer than they originally quoted me, which is pretty rare these days! There's this one time that really sticks out, though. I'd asked for an extra-thin pizza, and when I picked it up, one of the guys there - I lovingly call him Pops - actually took one look at it and decided it wasn't quite "thin" enough by his standards. Before I could even say anything, he had them whip up a brand new one that was perfectly, exquisitely thin. Talk about dedication to perfection! Honestly, the whole team there is just fantastic; super friendly and always going the extra mile. And let's not even get started on the food - it's consistently delicious, and the prices are so fair you almost feel like you're getting away with something. If you're looking for a new go-to, I cannot recommend them highly enough. You won't be disappointed!

It's such a humble, warm neighborhood place, but the food? Truly a 10/10 comfort food moment. The pizza was so flavorful -- we ordered half pepperoni and half Hawaiian/cheese and every slice was amazing. The wings and potato wedges were delicious too, and I have to mention their house 1000 island, ranch, and even the ketchup... everything tasted so fresh and good. The atmosphere was honestly the cutest. There were regulars hanging out, people jumping up to sing karaoke, and a little arcade inside that made it feel like the perfect casual game-night spot. It's the kind of place where you can grab pizza to go for a movie night at home, or stay, have a few beers, and just enjoy the vibe. They also have 5 beers for $15, which you really can't beat. Elie took such great care of us and made us feel so welcome. He was incredibly friendly and thoughtful and even surprised me with a complimentary homemade brownie, which was another 10/10. Such a sweet touch. Even the DJ running karaoke was super professional, which made the whole night feel extra fun and lively. It's rare to find a place that feels this genuine and welcoming while also serving food that's this good. I'll definitely be back for the pizza again very soon. Highly recommend stopping by -- even if it's just to grab a pizza to go for a cozy movie night at home.
