If you’re in OCMD, this place is a must try! From the incredible wine to the flavorful homemade salad dressings to the incredibly tasty (and unique) main dishes and desserts, this place served, by far, THE BEST authentic Italian food I’ve ever had. Or maybe just the best food in general! The service was also amazing. Our server, Meagan, was so attentive! For the hour we were here, we were literally transported to Italy by way of our tastebuds! This place will definitely be on our must-visit rotation when we come here for vacation! 👏🏻

Can’t believe we have been coming to OC for 20 years and never tried this place. The food quality is outstanding, great service and atmosphere. Will be back the next time.

We had a magical memorable Italian dinner last night at Ristorante Antipasti. Everything was superb from the atmosphere to the delectable food. Every bite was celebration of the palate.
Fausto, the owner, makes you feel like you are at his home for a special event. Not to be missed!

Very good food. I'm not normally into Italian food but this place was very very good. A little on the pricey side but I expected that. And for the reviewers on here who said it's not where it's listed as being, yes it is. It's hunkered down behind Fountainhead Towers on 116th Street. You cannot see this restaurant from Coastal Highway. If you like Italian food I would highly recommend this establishment.

Fabulous Italian restaurant... mozzarella carrozza, sauces, gnocchi, wine list, service, and our server Claudia... all fabulous. Bravo!
When we first arrived inside, the noise was absolutely deafening. Loud music blaring, tables jam packed with people shouting over the music. Was half tempted to just leave. Was not the ambiance my husband and I wanted for dinner (please consider taking music to lower volume). The hostess said they had an outside area. So grateful she offered it! The outside area is a tented portion of the parking lot but nicely dressed up with tables featuring decent linen and plates. The food was excellent as was our server. The gentleman was attentive without being overly annoying. The salads were evenly dressed and well proportioned. Bread was liberally offered. My ravioli and ricotta had a perfectly blended and delicate sauce. My husband had the special- crab meat in a pink sauce that was outstanding. Their wine and cocktail list is weak (whites were a small lot and reds quickly escalated to very expensive for some rather basic selections). We managed to find a delightful red under $50 (Tatone). Overall, a good experience. Suggest again to be mindful of music volume- it only increases the noise.

Always loved this place BUT were more or less forced into ordering our entire meal right then and there. Sometimes an appetizer and salad fills us up?? "The chef HAS to know your entire order in order to prepare". Screw the chef! Also, they said we could NOT order a single glass of wine. We have before!!!

When asked if you want bottled water or tap water do not order bottled water unless you do not mind spending $9 A bottle..

Second time we’ve been here and excellent yet again. He had the dish that’s like lasagna but isn’t and I had the tortellini with prosciutto and fresh peas in a cream sauce: yum!! Limoncello cake made a nice dessert. Salads are dressed beautifully. Wouldn’t bring the little kids here though; a little too fancy.
