Antico Italian - Huntersville

I’ve been wanting to try this place for a bit. I was running errands with my mother-in-law and decided to pop in for a small bite. It was like 3 PM not lunch-not dinner. We went with the penne alla vodka. My husband had been preparing an organic whole chicken for dinner at 6 so we passed on adding meat to the pasta dish. I felt bad for my mother in law, she asked for another piece of bread to dip into her pasta sauce, but the waiter was so busy he dropped it off at another table. He did offer to bring it later but she was done eating by then. I understand, it can’t be easy juggling all the tables. I did have a question about the sauce (I am a big foodie) asking about the olive oil, and the waiter seemed to lose his patience with me. I was wondering if they add butter to the pasta and he got irritated. Maybe he misunderstood me I’m not sure. Maybe he felt I was being difficult – really not sure. Whatever, I’d like to try them again – this time I’ll bring my husband – we love having meals together and exploring places.

Best Italian food we’ve ever had! I got the bolognese and my husband got the veal Marsala special. Tasted just like I was back in Italy! Great service and even better food. We will be back!

If you're looking for an amazing Italian restaurant that taste like authentic Italian food just like your Grandma's kitchen this is the place. So delicious and the portion was just perfect. The service was great and the waiter was very attentive and answered questions. You can tell they put everything in every dish they serve. Definitely coming back for more.

Will definitely be back! Very little wait on a Friday evening. We’ve been by this place a hundred times but ate here for the 1st time! The Penne alla vodka was amazingly savory! The tiramisu was on point and their selection of good Italian wines was great!

Stunning meal with exceptional service and ambience. Authentic Italian cuisine that gives you a full stomach and heart. You will certainly come back.
