Reviews of Antoni's Italian Cafe (Coffee Shop)

Lu Ann Gould

This is amazing fresh cooked food!! This is locally owned and operated and it's not "chain" food. This is one of the BEST dining experiences we have ever had. We had a large party of 11, (7 of those teens and young children) & the wait staff was wonderful! We were greeted when we arrived and the manager also checked in us. Our waitress, Nancy was very efficient and helpful. Our food was perfect!! I highly recommend this wonderful restaurant!!!!

Cindy Beverly

Beautiful setting for a nice romantic dinner but also a good family restaurant. Attentive wait staff and lots of choices on the menu.

Larry LeBlanc

Love this spot! Tucked away in the Oil Center and a perfect outdoor seating area that allows dogs! The chef and staff takes a personal interest in your meal and your experience. If you're a Heath nut, they have and will cater to your interest and your health and dietary needs. I can not even begin to share how good the food is and how perfect Antoni's is! It is my new favorite eatery. Plus my dog appreciates the attention and treats!

Tiffany O'Gwynn

Nice outdoor area. Good food. Pleasant staff.

Thad Lambert

Great food and great service !! We will be back!!

Clint Adkins

I’ve never commented before and to see all the positive reviews surprises me. I just got a veal parm delivered to my room. It looked like it had gone swimming. Water halfway up the container. I couldn’t even finish it.. maybe just an off night for them. But absolutely terrible

Jaylaxel Br'Unaye

Great lasagna, bread pudding, cappuccino

BRAD LEBLANC

Good food, good service, nice atmosphere

Charlie Cantrell

AMAZING Italian in Lafayette! Bruchetta, Caprese, Veal and Calzones are all excellent!

Joseph Johnson

Service is impeccable, and the food phenomenal.

Salvatore Lattero

Great meal

Scott Hollier

This has been our geaux too spot for a laid back, relaxing, quiet evening. The food is excellent. The atmosphere is equally appealing. The tables are far enough apart that the noise level is low so you can carry on a quiet conversation without hearing your neighbors conversation. We also go to a lot of events at the Heymann Center and Antoni's is perfect for this type night out. But, be sure to make reservations before a popular event at the Heymann Center as Antoni's will definitely be packed.

Tim McKenzie

Great little Italian cafe! We went for lunch while working with a client in the area. Waitress was excellent and the food was quite good. Definitely worth a visit if you're in the area and looking for non pretentious home cooked Italian.

Amy Hackett

I love this restaurant! It has a nice ambiance, great food and excellent service!

Debbie Melton

Great ambience, incredible food....but very hard for GPS to get us there.

Joshua Sylvester

Great food at a great price. One of the best Italian restaurants in Lafayette.

Valerie Lyles

Perfect date lunch or dinner. Amazingly friendly and attentative server. Food was amazing.

Ryan Judice

Excellent food and great customer service. Owner is always there to personalize your experience.

Paul Merryman

Awesome little Italian restaurant in Lafayette. Definitely a hidden gem in the city with delicious and fresh food.

Steven Domingue

Antoni's has some of the best Italian food I've experienced in Lafayette. The pizzas are simple, traditional and delicious, with a great crust. The service is always top notch in my experience, and the atmosphere is great for family dining or even date night. They also have outdoor seating, which is great when the weather is nice. I would definitely recommend going there if you're looking for real Italian food, pizza, calzones, pasta, etc. It's a hidden gem in Lafayette.

Angela Barnes

Had the shrimp PO boy , best we ever had! Bought another to take on the road! The bad thing is that we won't be able to order another elsewhere, it won't be better! Loaded with shrimp...Every bite had one, staff were all real friendly too.

Joseph Young

Have to eat here every few months to remind myself why I love it so much

Isaac B. Sanchez

The food was very well prepared and certainly tasteful. Service was excellent!!

Wayne Jeffries

Great service every time. Food is outstanding. Never disappointed.

Jim McGee

Just incredible service and food. I eat there about once a month and every time I am blown away by the staff and walk away thinking it’s the best meal I’ve ever had. Best of all, it’s quiet and relaxing and a little out of the way, so it’s an ideal date spot, and one of the few restaurants that has a relaxing atmosphere. Lafayette’s best.

Kelly Jones

I absolutely loved Antoni's....the atmosphere, the wait staff....Ryan was fantastic, the food is absolutely amazing and I look forward to going back and trying other items on the menu. We had the stuffed mushrooms, I had the house Italian salad, the bread was so good, my daughter had the Eggplant Parmesan entree and I had the Veal Scallopini with Marsala Mushroom Sauce, veggies and the risotto. Both meals were exceptional, as was the appetizer.

Blaine Jennings

Great place for lunch or dinner. Bring your family or bring a date. Excellent food, awesome staff and great atmosphere.

Diane Rytlewski

We love the experience every time we dine here. The food is exceptional. Service is wonderful. The location is convenient and easy to find and it is the perfect setting for an intimate dinner or a fun outing with friends. I'm always tempted by the specials but my go to is the pizza. Best in town! Try the Pana Cotta for dessert! ITS AMAZING! They also have a nice selection of wines.

Mark Lubbock

Fantastic neighborhood Italian Restaurant. The sort of place you want to make "your own"!

Tim Morgan

Grest service and a consistent menu/product.

Xan John

Pretty righteous Italian food at a reasonable price. My Aunt Lynda and Uncle Bruce Cart founded this Italiano staple in the heart of L-Town in 96, real talk. Upon August 2013...’twas sold to a loyal employee who was passionate about the restaurant. Things were changed up a tad but mostly remain the same. The Cæsar dressing should be used as a dip for the, cooked a little extra, Cajun smoked sausage pizza...won’t let you down!

Frieda Johnston

Great date place. Cozy Italian spot with delicious food and fantastic service

Edward Turner

High quality ingredients that are always freshly prepared. The specials are always wonderful. The servers are always attentive, especially Chelsea. This is a local favorite.

Lisa Borel

Quaint little trattoria, or almost...tucked into a former office complex in the Oil Center. Not quite like any Italian food I have had before, uninspired salad, heavy, heavy sausage sauce in the lasagna, couldn't detect a hint of ricotta there. Not sure there was cheese at all, honestly. Pleasant ambiance.

Guillaume Duchamp

(Translated by Google) Pizzas excellent. Felted atmosphere. Salty addition (Original) Pizzas excellentes. Atmosphère feutrée. Addition salée

Kellye Clark

The food was mediocre at best. Basic Italian food that I could have made at home. Just ok.

Amy Adams

Fantastic food and service!!

Drake Carrier

I went here on valentine's day after randomly finding it online, and I have to say that was probably the best pasta I've ever had. Super comfy environment too.

Wendy L

Ate here for the first time, but definitely not the last. The food was delicious and so authentic. The house Italian dressing was amazing. The spinach salad was top-notch. Superb pizza and eggplant parm. Top all that off with superior service by Sandy and this little restaurant is a must!!!!

Susan Crane

Awesome service and food was good as always. Cream cheese ice cream to die for. Made just like my grandmother use to make.

Nat Bell O knee

Great meatballs. Service was great. Enjoyed by everyone

Sherrie Beck

The place it's very cozy and romantic restaurant .The waiter was very accommodating and professional . The appetizers are delicious but the meatballs are so soft you don't need a knife to cut them.The pizzas are the best thin crust very crispy and the combination of ingredients are awesome.Desserts are great if you space in your stomach they are out of this world but the bread pudding it's the best warm not heavy and just delicious .Our waiter was Sean he was knowledgeable of the menu and the wine selection. Very good service and prices. A little part of Italy in Lafayette . If you are craving for authentic Italian food this the place to go on a date or with your family.

Lisa Hopkins

Best pizza around... And the service was perfect

Tom Griffin

Good food, good wine, good service, nice quiet atmosphere.

Amanda LeBouef

Stephanie Gautreaux

Delicious Lasagna!

Bennett Marcel

Good veal parmigiana

Vanessa Davis

Great Italian Restaurant

Cole Lusby

One of the best pizzas in town. Great service too. Love this place.

Maria Elena Ortiz Ramirez

Great place to eat out. We chose the outside tables and was really nice. I loved the service, too emphatic with kids needs, especially with my baby, who received her veggies and chicken soft. The physical place is beautiful and comfortable, pretty design. Food, delicious! Seriously, I have the best salmon portion. My husband loved the bolognese, with his whole wheat pasta! That was amazing for his special diet. Just, at the end we feel a little rushy with the service girl who wanted to finish with us maybe fast, to attend more client. But never in a rude way. She was really nice! Totally recommended.

Amanda LaFleur

Quality food, delicious flavor with a quaint ambiance. Recommend calzones and pizza.

Katherine Lee

The calzones are amazing here. The bread is crispy, the filling is flavorful, and it's not greasy.

Sylvia Boatwright

5he service was bad , the pizza burned

Craig Hovey

Fantastic atmosphere and delicious food! Pleasantly surprised and delighted to return.

Stephanie Hartwell

Amazing food and the best service

Shelley Bentley

Ate here for the first time...and wow! Everything was just perfect. The outside atmosphere is very cozy and relaxing. The food was outstanding! We had the tomato basil soup and Italian side salad, and the Lasagna...all perfection. We will definitely be here again!!

Andy Espenan

My wife and I were riding bikes in Girard Park and Googled this place and saw they had outside eating. Wow were we pleasantly surprised by the food! The muffaletta was good but trying my wifes shrimp lasagna made it not as good any more. We want to go back and try their shrimp poboy and pizza!

Jacob Sonnier

hands down one of the best places I frequent. The food is fantastic and the service is magnificent

Arlene Arabie

Meal was absolutely delicious and I was not stuffed, but had plenty to eat.

Absolutely amazing classic Italian food! If you're ever hungry for some good old italian food this is your place!!! Very affordable for italian resturaunts in the area, you wont break the bank here but you might break your belt after eating too much!

Joseph Liuzza

Food was superb; ambiance remarkably warm, service was expert (Brian); Delightful Italian experience. Serving during the 2-5 pm period is convenient and adds to the relaxation of the dining.

Paul Kleinpeter

The calzone is the best bang for your buck. I personally prefer the build it yourself calzone.

Myrna Berard

Had a lovely lunch. The food was delicious and the service was good. Quaint and adorable place!

Thomas Kracher

Harvey Klar

"Great appetizer specials, pasta dishes are delicious."

Elise Vega

Romantic atmosphere, good food, good service

SJ D

Ouality food and great service exactly as you would expect. Busy and noisy at lunch. Parking can be a problem.

Carlos Vargas

Ok food, little overpriced. Just got there, because the place next door we were looking for was shutdown for a commercial taping

Michelle W

Kaileigh was an awesome waitress. We had a great Aniversary dinner! The food was very good and they had no problem adding some vegetables into hubbies meal. Thanks for the great night.

Shannon Adams

Food is excellent. Wait staff is friendly and prompt. Nice atmosphere.

Kathy

To go order for pasta bolenese....$15.00, barley enough pasta for one small serving and minimal, minimal sauce....Total Ripoff!!!

Phil Boyd

Just a really good place. Good food and good service.

C St. Peter

My waiter was very nice, the decor looked like the place was stuck in the 90's, the meat balls where unseasoned and had the texture of cat food, the sause in the lasagne was blande and again was unseasoned, also i would have burned my mouth because it was too hot-giving me the impression that it was microwaved, the presentation was sloppy and my plate was dirty. But, the Tiramisu was made to PERFECTION, i will be back, but only for the tiramisu. So overall, good service, bad decor, frozen food, dirty dishes, and great tiramisu

Rosalie Bruce

Had a bad night at Antoni's, Not the food , it was all good, but were charged 8.50 for old fashions, plus an extra $4.00 for Makers total 12.50 for old fashions....I think a bit much when bringing 4 new guest to the rest. and drinking and eating a great deal off the menu.......Our waiter was great, however the GM questioned my questioning his prices on the drinks.....did not set well with me or my guest!!!! After my complaining, the owner, Eli, did adjust my bill for $12.50, Thank you Eli., Mike

roy richichi

The salmon and mixed vegetables were cooked perfectly. The lasagna was out of this world. The atmosphere was comfortable and cozy. Highly recommend!

Jared Mayeaux

This is one of our go-to places in Lafayette. Very cozy bar area, and our favorite caprese in town.

Brad Johnson

Very popular place, great servers and manager

Kathy Cunningham

Overpriced.

Ryan Payne

They have a great pizza here and there Italian food is well prepared. There servers and staff and warm and friendly and have that southern charm and hospitality that is unique to Lafayette.

Johnny Gerace

Muffalata is amazing

A Google User

I join for dinner at times. I am a true romantic therefore the idea of candle light fascinates me. The atmosphere is completely different when lights are off and candles are lit. Do not misunderstand me - the atmosphere is not the only advantage of this place. Food is delicious and service is not too bad.

linda turner

EXCELLENT! Definitely bookmarked!!!!! We were travelers looking online for a restaurant with highly rated reviews. Started with the wonderful table bread and herb butter. Appetizer was grilled asparagus wrapped in prosciutto & drizzled with a light balsamic glaze...to die for! I had the grilled chicken breast with sauteed vegetables in a sage beurre blanc with sauteed mushrooms and the house salad (generous - enough for 2 - excellent quality healthy lettuce mix, tomatoes) Husband chose the michelangelo calzone which included grilled chicken, artichokes and sundried tomatoes. Desserts = tiramisu and lemon tart All cuisine creations were almost indescribably delicious!

Marat Nizberg

Quail was amazing. Salad was really good. Service was excellent. Tiramisu was okay. Overall great experience

Kurt Leger

Grand, the place to be, great service, great food.

Classi Wiley

Best custom pizza and sweet tea ever!!!

Pete Wheeler

We're on a road trip and found this place close by our hotel. First, our server Harper was wonderful. Energetic, knowledgeable and very friendly. We ordered two pasta dishes. They were very well cooked. I would recommend Antoni's if you're in the Layfayette area.

Benjamin Hentschel

Nice place

Michael Northway

I went here for lunch on a Thursday. The food was decent, not great. I had the chicken breast and vegetables. It seemed like I was the minority in the restaurant. It seemed to be a place for ladies.

Josh Firmin

Great service

Lucia James

We were looking for a restaurante close to the theatre at UL-Lafayette. Antoni’s was close lcated in the old oil center and recommended by friends. The menu was fairly complete but lacked manacoti which is my favorite dish. The appetizers were excellentand entrees superb. The service was slow but had pllenty of time. Hard to find but delicious food. Had more than I could eat. Beautiful, clean, place, wait staff excellent. I would eat there again.

Tjitra Gratia Dowell

Its ok food

Kristin Sinitiere

Shame on me for not going to Antoni's sooner. Great food, great service, great prices.

Jay Herpin

They make the best old fashioned I've ever had.

aaron bell

Came with a friend, my first time in Lafayette in a long time and was looking for some great food. And wow this place was exceptional. The corn grits was as great as I had heard and lamb and fried catfish (the meals we settled on) were knockouts.

Jake Junkin

Good service

Nel El

Good service, good food.

demathus ledet

I wish I could take a picture to show the portion of this food.15+ for what I got was robbery.

Jason Odom

Great food

Miz Palm

Overall great food, a little over priced for me. Staff was friendly and professional..our waitress was awesome, wish I could remember her name..the only negative thing I have to say is that my order was wrong...even though I specifically told her what I wanted, it was wrong...& it could've been the chef. ;)

Carlos Bedia

One of my favorite places. Very classy environment and excellent service.

Excellent restaurant and best expresso in Lafayette!!

Yvonne Dedo

Pleasant atmosphere & delicious food It's my favorite restaurant for lunch & dinner.

Mark Overbey

The veal Parmesan was awesome, and the Shrimp Alfredo was delicious as well. We had the focaccia bread with cheese and marinaria for the appetizer, and that was wonderful as well. our server, Ronaldo, was great and kept everyone at the table happy. I would love to go back, but the price is prohibitive.

Mandy Clark

Delicious

Ryan Brown

Ave Antoni pizza is the shiznit. Also, calzones are worth their weight in gold

Best first date place ever

shawn williams

EXCELLENT Brazilian Steakhouse. The meats was excellent. Salad bar was excellent also. Very good wine selection. Service was excellent also.

Chelsey Dugas

Ehh.. the basil sauce was definitely missing something. If you like seasoned food like most southern Louisianers.. wouldn't suggest their pasta. Very very bland. Not dry.. good texture.. But wouldn't order it again...

Guy Gideon

Great place to dine with friends , enjoy exceptionally prepared italian food and fine spirits in a quiet friendly atmosphere

Everything was so good. Even the bread and butter.

Payton Belanger

Great food, great service. It looks too fancy when you walk in, but it's actually friendly and casual. The white tablecloths are covered with clean white paper and there's fresh flowers in the center. The calzones are phenomenal! The eggplant parmesan was awesome, and even the salmon and kids chicken Alfredo we're great. I was amazed by the peach tea; it was wonderful. The waitress was friendly and easy to talk to. Overall a very good place to have dinner.

Robert McElligott

Outstanding food and owners

Mike Gaubert

They have a Great Sundwich, eggplant parmesan, and strombolli here

Debbie Arceneaux

First and foremost, I love the atmosphere! It's quite, quaint and the service is second to none. I love the meatball appetizer and the Spinach Salad with apples, walnuts, gorgonzola cheese and a to die for dressing. My all time favorite place to go and relax and have divine food!

Chris Scott

Delicious pizza. Classy and great service. Certainly coming back.

Dawn Vincent

A fave!

patrick araujo

This was a great find. We were in town for a wedding and are here after. Food is fresh it seems to have a great wine list. The staff is well trained and observant. Customer service is a very high priority and it shows. I will be back next time we are or here.
