My husband and I tried Antico for date night on Wednesday of last week. We were greeted right away and got a booth without any wait what so ever. The place was tiny, like 10-15 tables, so the wait time on weekends must be very long. The decor was very modern yet rustic? I'm not sure exactly what to call the style, but I liked it a lot. We both ordered pasta dishes. I had the antico pasta while hubs had penne vodka with chicken. The pasta portions were large and presentation was very pretty. I only ate half of it (yay for lunch leftovers!). They did not come with a complimentary salad or soup. My pasta was excellent and so was hubs. The chicken that he added to his tasted over cooked though. It was almost as if it was not completely thawed before being cooked or even worse, it was pre-fab chicken strips (GAG). He only took one bite of it and pushed the rest of it to the side so I knew something was wrong because my husband is a carnivore with a capital C. My husband never speaks up in restaurants because he thinks they are going to do something to the food if you send it back (he watched Waiting one too many times...). I have no problem saying anything so when the manager/owner came by to help refill drinks and offer a to go box, I mentioned it to her. She immediately apologized and said they would have remade something for him. She then promptly offered a complimentary dessert. I chose the Lemoncello cake because um Lemoncello cake. It was fabulous! We chatted with her a little bit and found out that they do not make their own desserts or breads due to their super small kitchen. They are imported from Italy to a New Jersey based bakery and then sent to NC. Our waitress was friendly and started off well, but she ended up having six tables at once so we were kind of forgotten about and it took awhile to get our check. All in all, it was a very nice meal and we will be absolutely go back especially since the manager/owner righted a wrong without batting an eyelash. On a side note, I think she may be related to the owner of Ciro's in University as their were framed articles about Ciro's on the wall. Coincidentally, Ciro's pasta dishes do not come with salads or soups as well.
