“Antonio’s Italian Cuisine Restaurant Dearborn Heights, Michigan (Italian-American Owned)
I have to say this was truly a fine dining experience I haven’t felt in ages. Luxury in every bite and in my sights. This is REAL Italian and by REAL Italian I mean the ambiance was spot on for the experience. Dim lights, beautiful paintings, and sculptures. The kindest young hostess was waiting at the door ready to get me comfortably seated and ready to order. The breadsticks were a dream come true, delicious garlicky cheesiness in every bite. I ordered the Chicken and Cheddar Calzone which was magnificent; it was halal meat so that made me pretty happy if I do say so myself. This place was so nice it made me proud to have European and Latin heritage, I was born Antonio Leon Bonet Shells but after my conversion to Islam, I am now Muhammad Antonio Leon Bonet Shells. Antonio is a great name and this restaurant definetly makes me much more fond of it. The fact that they had halal chicken meat was an amazing benefit to my selection to eat here today. It was very delicious and juicy in each and every flavorful bite. The cheese was ooey-gooey, and the sharp-flavored seasonings really made the meal. If you are in Dearborn Heights do not hesitate to try this spot out! #italian #dearborn #dearbornheights #trending #italiano“

“I went to jets pizza for dinner on Christmas Eve 2024 and Conner, was absolutely amazing. He made the BEST pizza and wings you could ask for. I asked him to surprise me with the wings and he made the BEST Bbq, buffalo, and garlic wings ever. They were AAAAAMAZINGLY DELICIOUS! Conner and the rest of the crew were so nice, kind and caring, very polite and well mannered. The food was freaking delicious!!! Thanks for the yummy experience Conner. I’m now craving the “Conners wing concoction” Can’t wait to visit again!!!!

Parking: Plenty of parking space

Kid-friendliness: It’s pizza, what kid doesn’t love pizza!“

“Super fresh subs and veggie tray. Gonella's trays were a hit for our party!“

“The best way to describe this pizza is Freddy style. This is truly one of a kind pizza. It’s not only quality tomatoes and moots but a cornicione like no other. The staff even elevated the experience with their hospitality. Top 10 pizza in the US“

“The steak focaccia sandwich was AMAZING!!!!! HIGH RECOMMENDED!!!!“

“My wife and I just moved to the area and were looking or a new place to dine for our anniversary dinner. We checked this place out on Friday and were very pleased. While it was a little pricier than we anticipated; over $100 for two 8oz steaks, the food was delicious. The atmosphere was also great. We will definitely be returning.“

“My son, who's moving to SanDiego, treated me there. He's been several times. Ambience, service, dinner and dessert were all excellent. Coffee was pretty darn good too. Can't go wrong!“

“This is one of my absolute favorite places to eat in the entire country . Everything is perfect from the pasta(stuffed manicotti omg) or my personal favorite the steak and cheese canzone that must have about 2 lbs of shaved rob eye on it. Served with meat sauce its the best“

“Amazing food!!! We had the risotto and it was creamy and perfect! Recommend 10 out of 10!!!!“

“what a wonderful experience we had at Cafe Cortina! from the complimentary valet, to the matre'd and all of the staff. The food was excellent, the ambiance perfect, and our guardian angel, Besnik, provided excellent suggestions all throughout the night! He never rushed us, and never hovered, he was just magically there whenever we needed anything. It was a perfect dinning expirence and we are grateful for it!“

“This place was quite delicious. I would recommend getting a 10:00 to 2 as opposed to the five to one like I did. That was all my fault! At least a 10/2 to would have had a better bread to meet ratio. Just my opinion! Lol. It was really good. But it definitely needed more meat and cheese than less! Close to the airport. They do take card or cash. Does have a parking lot. And a fun little police car out front!“

“First time here and will definitely return! Great meal!“

“Tonight we dined here for the first time , we had the most amazing night ! Great food met with the upmost amazing service by Andre and Chris both have amazing personalities that made the night personable and just over all wonderful, pasta was fresh and everything was just amazing. can’t wait to go back! 10/10 !“

“My wife and I finally stopped in last Wednesday after wanting to try it for years but never being in the area during their open hours (Tuesday through Saturday 4-9). We were not disappointed. I had the Chicken Gregorio which was fantastic as was the stuffed pepper soup. My wife had the Chicken Parmigiana which she loved and the Ham and Potato soup which she said was delicious. The bread and oil was great as well. We enjoyed watching the train circling above. All staff were friendly and helpful. A great experience.“

“Wonderful atmosphere and AMAZING food!! The Strawberry Tiramisu was beyond wonderful. We will definitely be back!“

“I had to prepare some food for a potluck, but I had a pretty full schedule. I called Liberati's and they were able to accommodate me on about 36 hours notice with 3 of their 3' party subs. They were on time and ready when I arrived and Frank himself helped to load them into my car. I wasn't ready for what came next: texts, mail, and messages all saying thank you for a great contribution and half of them asking me where to get them. You clearly can't go wrong with LIberati's.“

“We ordered chicken piccata with potatoes & fresh vegetables for one entree & the second entree was a special: orecchiette with rapini & Italian sausage. The meals also came with bread & soup (or salad). The food was delicious & our waitress (Kaila) gave us excellent service. Luigi's has always been consistently a good experience.“

“Everyone was so kind! There was a minor spill at the table where the glass broke and they were so on top of moving us to another table to avoid any injury from the glass. Our server, Brandi, was absolutely phenomenal! She was sweet, professional, kind, and accommodating! Food was absolutely incredible!“

“We went there for mother's day. They where very busy. We had rsvp. We got sat on time. Our server was very busy many tables and possibly a issue at one of them. We waited for a bit before our orders were taken. But the server was very professional. To took very great care of us. Was very apologizing for our wait. He may our visit well worth it. I can say my family of 6 was very happy with all the foods we were given. We will definitely go back!“

“Delicious Italian food!!!“

“we've ate here forever WHAT HAPPENED?!?!?!?! THE SAUSAGE IS NOT THE SAME. :( PURCHASED TODAY 530 PM THIS SAUSAGE IS NASTY. GARBAGE WHAT IS GOING ON !!!!“

“I recommend going to see Stephanie. She was more than attentive we were never in need for anything! She gives a new meaning to service with a smile. My wife and I have been back many times just for her good cheer she seems to pass on to all around her! 5 stars for Stephanie and Como’s for having such a great staff!“

“Food is always. delicious I have never had bad service if it’s a party of four or it’s a party of 20 but they’re all credible people there. Mexican vote tomorrow load up. Certainly worth drive.“

“Absolutely fantastic Italian food! I had the veal piccata with pasta, and everything was delicious. I also tried their homemade marinara sauce, and it was seriously to die for. It was so good that I bought a pint to take home! You could put this marinara sauce on cardboard, and I’d probably still eat it. 😂

The manager was extremely nice, knowledgeable, and helpful, which made the experience even better. And definitely save room for dessert—the espresso gelato is amazing!

Great food, great service, and some of the best marinara sauce I’ve ever had. I’ll definitely be back!“

“Angelo Brothers is my new favorite Italian restaurant! My coworker has told me I need to check it out for months now. In the last 8 days I have frequented Angelo Brothers Six separate times. Over these visits, I quickly grew quite fond of Angelo Brothers, the Family/owners, & the staff! I brought almost Twenty different individuals along with me over the six separate visits. Amazing food, Friendly service, and More! The first photo was my own creation, alfredo pasta, with shrimp, mushrooms, along with baked cheese on top!? The second photo is their AmAzInG Prime Rib of Beef Au Jus- it is Fantastic ? I had it Three times in a row? The third photo was their Savory/Delicious, special in family recipe stuffed Cannoli!? The last photo is their Delicious Eggplant Parm, that i added my own personal flare to with their Amazing Alfredo sauce, instead of marinara sauce.?? Definitely check out Angelo Brothers! I wish it hadn’t taken me Thirty Five years to be introduced to Angelo Brothers!“

“I’m kind of new to the neighborhood and I was looking for a different pizza place. Delivery was fast and pizza was excellent. I would recommend them. I’m willing to try them again.“

“The ready to use lasagna sheets are so much better than boxed noodles. Easy to use and such a time saver.“

“We had a really great experience at Olive Garden, and I definitely wanted to take a moment to recognize our server, Kyle, because he truly went above and beyond to make our visit a great one.

From the moment we were seated, Kyle was friendly, professional, and attentive. He checked on us frequently throughout the meal without ever making us feel rushed or overwhelmed. He was very knowledgeable, made sure we had everything we needed, and genuinely seemed to care about making sure we were having a good experience. It’s not often that you come across a server who puts that much effort into taking care of their customers, and Kyle absolutely deserves recognition for it. His attitude and customer service really made our experience that much better.

The restaurant itself was also very clean, clear, and well organized. Everything was in order, the dining area was comfortable, and the staff we interacted with were all friendly and welcoming. You could tell that the team takes pride in creating a pleasant environment for their customers.

As for the food, everything we ordered was cooked to perfection and tasted amazing. The food came out hot, fresh, and prepared exactly the way you would hope. The quality and portion sizes were very good, especially considering the prices. Everything felt fairly priced, and we definitely felt like we received good value for what we paid.

Overall, this was a great experience from start to finish. Good food, fair prices, a clean and organized restaurant, and friendly staff all made for a really enjoyable visit. But honestly, Kyle was the standout. Having a server who is that attentive, personable, and willing to go the extra mile can make a huge difference in a dining experience.

Thank you to Kyle and the entire Olive Garden team for making our visit such a positive one. We will definitely be back!“

“My first time & the pizza was Great!!“

“I ordered 3 Vizz-a-naters shipped to my home. This pizza was amazing. From the sauce to the cheese to the pepperoni, everything tasted great. Even the crust by itself was great. I definitely need to visit them and try a fresh one, but this really is the best tasting frozen pizza I have ever had. They are definitely doing it right.“

“12/10 my one, and only Detroit Pizza experience.“

“I love their Pizza take home & by the slice is so so 😎. Good Ribs, Better broasted Chicken and actually crispy fries. Furthermore they have a decent bbq sauce not that mesquite bs. The cashier is very Nice person & the people that pick up seem to actually want to be there. The atmosphere is a pizza place with a party store in it. Benches to wait on if you didnt call in. Love you Primos, keep it 💯.“

“This BLT was amazing and the ladies working today were great!“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Best gluten free pizza 🍕 hands down!“

“Nice enough, I'd return for brunch. Had their farmers omelet, a lot of food, a little bland but a little salt and pepper made it delicious. They'd get 5 stars but I'd need to see how they do on a return trip to be certain enough for 5 stars.“

“This girl, Brielle was very helpful in finding the perfect pizza order. She gave me a list of all the different types of crust, toppings, and styles of pizza! She made sure that I was very happy with my order and it came out very fast. She was very funny too. The pizza was good in the end. We’ll buy again.“

“What a great spot! A hidden gem. The food is so good, I can’t enough. Good wine selection. The service is great. The atmosphere is very quaint and warm. I have introduced many of my friends to this place and they continue to go back. This is hands down one of my top 3 favorite places in Michigan. I highly recommend it!“

“Kade was an amazing server at the Olive Garden in Livonia! He was very friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed throughout our meal. He checked on us regularly and made our whole experience enjoyable. He provided excellent customer service and had a great attitude. Definitely one of the best servers we’ve had. Thank you, Kade!“
