ANTONIO'S Maitland

This place was amazing. The food is home style cooked meals. I had the rosemary chicken and my boyfriend had the chick with artichoke. Came with baked veggies with the optional cheese on top. We had the resiling for wine to drink and the carrot cake for dessert. I really love their store inside with all the Italian accoutrements from desserts to a deli and meals to go. Mace was our server and he was the best.

Went last night for magical dining with my mother in law. Such a nice hidden gem. Downstairs is a cafe/market where you can eat. Upstairs is the restaurant. They have stairs and a small elevator to get up there. If you park in the larger lot in the back, you walk straight into the double doors and can make your way up. Otherwise if you enter through the front main doors, you go through the market. The food option we chose were fantastic. Our server was phenomenal. Forgot his name but very sweet and basically quick on his feet all night. It was a busy evening as they had a party of 40 dining as well but service was still fine in our opinion. It was a Friday night so we expected it to be busy. This is a great spot for a date or friends get together. Although yes I thunk it's family friendly, I think the atmosphere upstairs for dining is more adult and the cafe downstairs is great if you have the kiddos with you. We found parking in the back easily. They also had a full bar and plenty of wines to choose from. Overall, great time and the prices for a regular non magical dining experience are reasonable. Will be coming back again! Had the NY strip, lobster ravioli, coconut pie, chocolate, smoked salmon app and egg plant app. Drank the spritzers. Mother in law found it to be strong. I thought it was fine. So definitely depends on the person. Enjoy!

I love everything about this restaurant. I just went last night for the second time with my husband and the experience was beyond amazing. Definitely excited to go back soon.

Worth the wait! My wife and I live just down the street and have passed by here multiple times. We decided to join another couple for Magic Dinning and needless to say, holy deliciousness. They put their best foot forward with the calamari, smoked salmon, and eggplant as an appetizer. We had the lobster ravioli and the steak with shrimp. The steak was cooked perfect and was massive! The lobster ravioli was delicious along with all of our desserts. They have a nice lounge area to enjoy a craft cocktail before dinner and all of the drinks were 👌 will be going back for more!

All around one of the best combinations of have a family owned restaurant can offer by having a deli/small cafe downstairs with their main attraction (I’d argue downstairs is where the fun occurs) upstairs being their main dinning hall. The food and staff are all very attentive and know exactly what to recommend. They don’t just pick out the most expensive they try to make recommendations according to your liking. The cocktails are crafted with the utmost precision. Their old fashioned, limoncello, or espresso martini highly highly recommend.

I’ve had take out from downstairs and also sat upstairs and both have amazing food. They sell handmade frozen pizza which is amazing as well. Not your typical one. The produce, pasta, and sauce selections is great as well downstairs to buy if you want to cook at home.

Lunch downstairs. Relaxed environment & very attentive service but not hanging over your shoulder. Food was wonderful. Seating is surrounded by the wine & grocery aisles making me feel very comfortable. I travel just over an hour each way to be here. Finish up with a little Italian grocery shopping. One of my favorite spots. Locatelli Pecorino Romano, Divina Blue Cheese Stuffed Olives & wonderful deserts.

When to the Upstairs dining room. The service was absolutely impeccable, and not rushed.Our smoked salmon appetizer very good, served on a crusty style tuscan bread. I had the Veal piccata, very tender and quite good though I found the taste of the lemon butter sauce could have been slightly more intense. My companion, said the Mahi-mahi withe corn salsa was very much to her liking.

I visited for the first time and I can't believe how good the food was. Sauces were wonderful, pasta cooked perfectly and a wide array of main courses. There are 2 distinct restaurants. Up stairs is formal with impeccable service. Downstairs is more of a Cafe within an Italian grocery. My only issue with the downstairs location is the number of tables wedged into every square foot of space. This makes it hard to shop without getting into diner's way. We will definitely be back.

We ate downstairs by the deli food was very good and got a little busy but will be back to try the main restaurant upstairs.

Antonio’s (Upstairs) is a traditional Italian restaurant located in Maitland. There is a separate shop and restaurant downstairs as well. The staff is very friendly, helpful, attentive, and did a great job bringing out the food all at once. Their food was very tasty and high quality, would definitely recommend for great Italian. They only serve wine, however they have a great selection.

Definitely the best Italian restaurant in Maitland if not the Orlando area. The deli downstairs is nice for informal dining. The upstairs formal restaurant is great for anniversaries and special occasions. Worth going to for an upscale experience.

I am so happy with my choice of Antonio's for my family event. Matt was very helpful in planning a prix fixe menu (for 14 people) and making adjustments on the fly. He offered us a private room (without me asking) and the service was fantastic. It was a busy night but we felt like they closed down the place for us. I am beyond grateful. Oh -- and the food was great!

Out new favorite restaurant for birthdays, anniversaries and any special occasion. The food is amazing, upstairs is a bit more formal than downstairs, which is very nice. The bar and outdoor seating are comfortable, everyone there has always been great, we love Antonio's!

EDIT to initial review!!! 5 STARS🥳🥳🥳🥳
Just wanted to do an edit of my review for Antonio's. The GM of the restaurant reached out to me and offered to make things right with the restaurant's Chipotle Shrimp Fettuccine dish and I accepted. He said I was the first person to ever call back. He also explained what had happened with the dish I ordered and how spicy it was. They corrected the amount of spice and let me tell you, IT IS SO AMAZING! It is the right amount and gives it just enough heat. The shrimp, mushrooms, sauce.... it was just perfect! I ate the whole thing this time!! They didn't charge me for my dinner this time around. They did a phenomenal job at making things right with one of their customers. I highly recommend when an establishment wants to get in touch and try to make things right, give them a call! Antonio's read my review and figured out the problem with the dish, corrected it, and made it taste so freaking good and invited me to try them again. I'm so glad I did!
Mr. Gentile, thank you so much for reaching out! I truly enjoyed speaking with you and enjoyed everything I ordered! You have a very quaint marketplace and eatery. Kudos to you and your staff!❤
Wanted to get some Italian food and ordered the Smokey Chipotle shrimp with fettuccine. Do not order this dish unless you like to feel the heat from the spice and not taste the food. The waiter said it was a hot dish, and I asked how hot it burned your mouth and he said no but everyone's level of heat is different. Ours was not on the same page. I ordered milk, and even still, it didn't help. Sadly, I only had 3 bites of it. The waiter offered me dessert, so I had the spumoni.. that was good and helped take the heat out of my mouth. He didn't charge me for the dessert, but I got charged for the dinner. This dish would have been amazing if it didn't have all the excessive spice that made it unbearable for someone like myself to eat. The service was good and the atmosphere was too. We ate in the downstairs portion of the restaurant. Which was more like a cafe/bistro. Really cute place with sauces, food, and chocolates to buy. If I go back, I know what not to order

Always drive by this place and finally get to try. I did not know that they do 2 different servings on each floor. First floor more like common affordable price Italian food but still full service, second floor is more fancier. I tried the first floor today and get their pasta daily specials. OMG it is so delicious for the pasta!! Creamy taste but unique, not sure how exactly to describe it but encourage you to try! Pizza is ok nothing too special and tiramisu is decent. Price is fair and definitely come back to try 2nd floor!

We have been coming to Antonio's for 10 years plus. We've always enjoyed the food and the atmosphere.For the last 6 months we have noticed a drop in the quality of the food.However the last couple of visits we have noticed the quality has come back. Dinner tonite was as good as anything we have ever had at Antonio's. Glad we keep coming back. Our number one place for Italian.

I had a delightful dining experience at Antonio's, where the delicious food was complemented by the exceptional service of our server, Mace. Their attentiveness and friendly approach added to the overall enjoyment of our meal. Mace's menu recommendations and wine suggestions were spot-on, making our visit truly memorable. I highly recommend Antonio's, where the combination of delicious dishes and excellent service creates a fantastic dining atmosphere. We’ll be regulars from here on out.

Just like I remembered! Stromboli was wonderful! Tiramisu was a nice treat. Plenty of options. Great place for any meal. Love the downstairs area!

Disclaimer: I went to a company Christmas dinner and did not have regular table service, but everything was still outstanding. The calamari was a little heavy for my taste (others loved it), but the salad and NY strip were both perfect. The servers were polite and efficient.

Antonio’s Downstairs - Excellent food, great service and cool atmosphere. ProbAbly the best Tiramisu in Orlando. We had the Penne a la Vodka Salmon, Penne w/Pesto and Chicken and Eggplant Parmesan. Everything was delicious and our server was fabulous. This place always delivers.
