"This was the first time we have been to Antonio's the food was great our waiter was very attentive. I loved the fact they mentioned our one year anniversary multiple times we felt special. My only negative comment would be when we arrived no one was there to greet us and the gentlmen that seated us said let him check to see if our table was ready as he was going to check on a special table but it turned out to be a normal table next to three gentlemen who talked business the whole time we where there."

"We went to Antonio's Upstairs on Saturday night to celebrate Mother's Day. Each of us ordered a different entre and we were all thrilled with our choices. My chicken masalas was the best I have ever had. Others had the short ribs, the pasta with chicken, and chicken stuffed with spinach and sun dried tomatoes.
Large portion size, yummy Super Tuscan wine by the glass and a good time was had by all."

"The food is outstanding. I am a picky eater, but I don't have to make any special requests. I am addicted to the Chicken Marsala. The portions are generous. The aroma of good food cooking on the grill whets your appetite. We have been pleased every time we have eaten here."

"Antonio's is for us and many other Maitland families the go-to place for anything from a quick deli run(downstairs) to a fine-dining experience for ourselves and guests, local or out-of-town. Consistently excellent."

"Fantastic wine testing dinner! The producer representative, Ms. Erika, from Bersano winery was there and she is one of the most kind and gentle person I have ever met. The place has a lovely food and wine shop. I definitely will go back there and I recommend it."

"Was a special evening. This was the 1st time I met a certain lady. We were seated at 7:15 and we were the last ones to leave. The food was fabulous, Service was good but our waiter was a little overzelous. Wonderful atmosphere. We had a booth that lended pricavy so was easier to talk with one another. Had great wine. I across the street from Antonio's and could actually toss a small stone and hit my home from there. I have lunch there 2 or three times a week."

"My wife and I ate here for the first time for lunch on our anniversary. We were very pleased with attentive service and the fresh, delicious food. We had field greens instead of the house salad and it was a wonderful fresh start. My wife had the salmon, and I had the Chicken Marsala. Both were excellent (yes, I tried some of hers). Great flavor. We will be back."

"Had a wonderful business dinner at Antonio's upstairs! Their menu was great and the out of state people in our group said it was the best Italian food they had ever had. Service was superb and we were able to have a business dinner and actually hear everyone speak. Highly recommend"

"Everything was top notch. Best veal chop I have had in many years. Fish was outstanding. We live in the Sand Lake Road area and were really happy to have a great dinner without the feeling we had to have an expense account to pay for dinner. We will be back!"

"Our second dinner at Antonio's and it was just as lovely as the first. Top notch bread and garlicky olive oil and caesar salad. We had the special veal shank osso bucco on a saffron risotto and a seafood ravioli and shared each. The seafood was 4+ stars but the osso bucco was way beyond that...nectar of the gods! Although full, we shared a delicious dessert of a rich chocolate ice cream ball with a zabaglione center, rolled in cocoa with a raspberry sauce. Although busy, Roberto's service was impeccable. Atmosphere is upscale and romantic but friendly, not stuffy with a lovely view of the trees and lake. Want a perfect evening in the Orlando area...stay at Thurston House and have dinner at Antonio's in the charming town of Maitland."

"Our business lunch was perfect. Food was excellent, Hector was a great waiter, and the venue was quiet and calming. I recommend upstairs for any occasion, and I hear locals like the downstairs cafe."

"Fish was seriously undercooked. Even my dining partner noticed. Waiter did not come by timely so I ate around the edges and took the rest home to cook. When it was pointed out to the waiter he simply said 'oh'". Not up to usual Antonio's standards."

"Visited Antonio's for the first time with a friend who's dined there many times. Everything about dinner was lovely: the food was excellent; the service was friendly and timely; the atmosphere was charming, with the lake view a plus; and my friend and I could actually speak in a normal tone of voice without our conversation being drowned out or our dinner overwhelmed by loud music. This is a real restaurant, not just a social spot that happens to also serve food. As nice as the ameneties are, the focus is definitely on the food, and just one word is needed to describe it - delicious! I will definitely be back."

"Promptly greeted and seated. Our waiter was very attentive but not overbearing. My son had the marinated appertizer and I had the corn and sausage soup with a very light tomatoe broth that was just right. My wife' s salad was very good but a huge serving! My son and I had the stuffed veal chops, one of the specialty dishes and it was the best veal chop I have had it 15 years and came very close to the chops served in the great Italian New Jersey restaurants. My wife and I were patrons of Antonio's Maitland on opening night over 20 years ago and it has just gotten better like good wine!"

"We have come to know Antonio's(Upstairs) as a very special dining experience. Besides the innovative and delicious food at very reasonable prices, the wait staff is very professional and the tables are set far enough apart so that you don't feel crowded and can actually talk to your companions without shouting. Whenever we are in the Orlando area with special friends, we make sure we take them to Antonio's. We have never been disappointed."

"Our dining experience was not the normal one for Antonio's Upstairs. It was Valentine's night and a prix fare menu. The normal menu is much better! We look forward to Antonio's "NORMAL.""

"YOu will never go wrong if you choose Antonio's. The staff is always very acommodating, the food excellent and the location is superb. be ready to have some parking challenges as the restaurant and cafe capacities are beyond what the parking lot can acommodate."

"We were there on a very busy night (Sat). Took a long while to get our food and by the time our waiter got to us to take our entree' order they had run out on the fish special. For us, maybe Saturday nights aren't a good choice because they were slammed with single tables and large parties, really too busy and chaotic for a laid back conversational meal, though as always, the food is very nice as is the wine."

"Antonio's Upstairs Restaurant in Maitland is absolutely fantastic! Every time my husband and I go there, the ambiance is lovely, romantic and charming, the staff are kind and courteous, and the food is more delicious than words can say! Truly a wonderful place, our favorite for special occasions. Highly recommend! Try the risotto, it is phenomenal!"
