Incredible food. Service was excellent. Was not expecting this passing through SSM. Chef was so kind and generous. Spent time talking to us at the table.

Antico is a local favorite and has always been a go to for any friends and family visiting from out of town. The dishes all are refined and full of flavour. The appetizers stand out the most, the shrimp putanesca and the blackened scallops are truly delicious. The deserts never disappoint either, the tiramisu and my personal favorite the limoncello cake. This restaurant really feels like the chef has made it his own. You really get a personal experience here, as Chef Arturo takes time (when possible) to talk with guests and make sure they enjoy their meal.

It was a great dining experience: my friend and I sat for three hours and savored our way through the menu from appetizer to dessert. We had no issue finding parking as there are spaces on the property and street parking as well. The food was delicious and the atmosphere is amazing; not to mention the great service! The chef and owner even came out to greet us and I thought that was just wonderful! Many thanks to Lindsay (or Lindsey maybe) for her wonderful demeanor and hospitality. I had : cheeseballs ( in tomato and basil sauce I believe) followed by Veal Saltimbocca and sealed off with Tiramisu. My friend had: arincini followed by a Greek salad with Tiramisu for dessert. Neither of us drink alcohol so we opted for tea and iced tea. It was a great way to spend the evening, highly recommend! 15/10 :)

Every single bit of food that touched my mouth tonight was so heavenly that as soon as I got back to the hotel, I had to write a review. This quaint and unpretentious little restaurant was recommended to me by a friend. Boy, this restaurant blew me away. For starters, Chef Art has made me a believer of figs. I wasn’t a big fan of figs before. After I tasted the appetizer of figs, prosciutto, honey, and cheese...this is a must try. The combination of the sweet honey and figs and the saltiness of the prosciutto, just wow. It hit all the right notes. The main course did not disappoint either. We got both the specials for the evening. I had the beef tender loin and prawn surf and turf. We also tried the other special of salmon with cream sauce and spinach ravioli. I’m amazed by the level of attention and detail in each of the dishes. The steak was cooked to perfection and melted in your mouth. We capped the evening with the most delectable tiramisu. Sooo good. One of the best tiramisus I’ve tasted. If you are in the SSM area, this is one food destination you shouldn’t miss. I will be back soon for more. P.s. make sure to make a reservation as the place itself is small but very cozy.

Food was great. Service was fair. Some poor table manners, in which the servers reached over my plate of food to pour water. It could of went smoother and more respectful. Cute dining area, very quiant and romantic. Chef was extremely pleasant and acknowledged the customers and seeking feedback about the food experience. Menu was fantastic.

Enjoyed a family dinner...service was outstanding, food was superb, the wine was delicious! Some of us weren't dressed as we'd normally be for a restaurant of this caliber...no problems at all. A friendly hello from the owner/chef was much appreciated.
