What it’s like at Antonio's?

Antonio’s is casual Italian eating in Las Vegas. It’s simple, comfortable and casual. You can have dinner and not feel like you need to get dressed up. The open kitchen and the sounds that make their way throughout the restaurant are much like those you have at the comfortable places you frequent at home.

This is an uneventful Italian restaurant that I keep going to. Why? It's comfortable and the food is good. It's not great but the service is good and the portions are fair for the money. If you want a decent bottle of wine they have a nice list to choose from. My choices usually are the Barolos and the Barbarescos. Careful, a moderately priced restaurant can easily become an expensive outing when you add alcohol.

How’s the food Antonio's?

The Osso buco is always good at least to my Sangiovese induced taste buds. My wife loves both their red and white sauces so much she often orders a little of both, of course I end up having to eat her leftovers.

If you are looking for simple Italian eating in a relaxed atmosphere this is it.
