Always spot on! Last night they surpassed themselves with the best fillet steak ever - cooked to absolute perfection, it simply melted in my mouth! Not to mention the immense salted caramel cheesecake - to die for!!!

My meal was given to another table in error. Then had to Waite 20 minutes while the rest of my table ate. No explication given or apology. No recompense offered. Could hear staff screaming at each other in kitchen. Will not rush back. What a shame.

Beautiful surroundings, good location, friendly staff and food delicious. Good range of beers and wines. My favourite restaurant at the moment. Cant wait to return. On slight drawback - car parking can be an issue as no dedicated car park.

Good Italian restaurant with good selection of options reflecting traditional cooking rather than a pizza and pasta style alone. Option of early bird menu. Conveniently situated for pre theatre eating.

Friendly, efficient staff. We were shown to our table straight away. We ordered a bottle of chianti classico and a jug of iced water. I had a fish skewer to start with and my husband scallops. Both tasted lovely. We both had fillet steaks with peppercorn sauce which came with a small portion of vegetables. The steaks were cooked to perfection . We finished off with espressos and limoncello liquer. The restaurant was fairly busy with a buzzing atmosphere and the staff were attentive without being overbearing. The bill came to just under £100. It was a very enjoyable meal and we would like to go back and maybe try a pasta or pizza next time.

Lovely meal in a lovely restaurant. We started with calamari and the goats cheese on red peppers. We then had the chef's specials of lamb shank and clams with pasta. The whole meal was delicious and the staff were pleasant and friendly as usual.

I have never been disappointed with the food or service at Antico. The atmosphere is lovely, the music is never loud, unlike other restaurants i have been to. Staff are always attentive, only maybe one very small point, i think the meals are just slightly rushed, i do like to wait a little after my starter before main meal comes, but that is just a communication thing with the staff to say can i have little more time before main meal. But i would recommend Antico to family and friends and work colleagues known they will be have lovely food.
