Cafe Antonio was way more than I expected from the exterior that borders a mechanic shop and being right over the bridge to Trenton. Once you walk in you are greeted by a host who shows you to your seat in the very romantic dining room (reservations should be made on the weekend for less of a wait). The ambiance is perfect for a date night, fancy bridal shower or classy family gathering. It is also awesome that it is BYOB, so you can save some money on drinks and spend it on appetizers instead!
Appetizers:
SEAFOOD BRUCHETTA: Seriously my favorite, and possibly the most fattening thing on the menu, but I don't care, give it to me baby! It's a garlicy, pesto cream sauce that smothers shrimps and crab lumps that comes with Antonio's fresh warm bread. $15 - a bit pricey but totally worth the indulgence
Any classics are great like the Bruchetta bread is a cheaper and savory alternative at only $6, still made with fresh ingredients or the Mozzarella Caprese or Cozze mussels in white wine sauce.
Entrees:
Chicken Milano: is my favorite! Sautéed chicken with mushrooms, prosciutto, sun-dried tomatoes in a brandy cream sauce & pasta! ugh, my mouth is watering already!
Chicken Champagne is really different, and surpringly addictive.Sautéed chicken with peaches in a champagne cream sauce, served over capellini.
Regardless of what you order, I'm sure you will be pleased. All the dishes look so amazing on each plate! Coming here is really what Italian food is like, romantic, abundent and indulgent. If you sign up for their newsletter they also send some good coupons every few weeks to help out with the price of that seafood bruchetta!
