Antoni's Italian Cafe has been serving up the tastes of Italy in Lafayette for over 20 years. Bruce and Lynda Cart opened Antoni's in 1996 with the vision of serving fresh, simple Italian dishes in a warm, family atmosphere. Since acquiring Antoni's in 2013, Holly and Eli Cure have maintained the originalvision of the restaurant while adding their own creative twists to Old World recipes.
Our traditional Italian menu features a variety of dishes made from the freshest ingredients to provide our diners with an authentic Italian meal. From pizzas and calzones to fish and filet mignon, we provide something for every taste, craving and budget. Let us pair a wine with your meal from our selection of fine Italian wines.

Services
Our homemade Italian bread served with garlic-infused olive oil, Italian herbs, and roasted garlic cloves. Fresh mushrooms stuffed with Italian sausage, fresh herbs, cheese, and breadcrumbs in a white cheese sauce. Pomodoro: Diced tomatoes, roasted garlic, and basil drizzled with garlic-infused olive oil.
Grilled chicken breast served on focaccia bread with provolone cheese, Caesar mayo, lettuce and tomato, with a cup of tomato basil soup. Ham, Mortadella and Salami layered with provolone on focaccia with our Italian olive and artichoke mix. Served with a cup of tomato basil soup. Served with sauteed vegetables.
We are so excited to officially announce the opening of our new private dining room, The Jennings Room! We leased the space in early 2017, and after pulling up carpet and adding a second restroom, a little paint and a touch of classic decor, the room transformed into a warm and welcoming addition to our restaurant's accommodations.

This was such an awesome find!!! They were so packed, hence make a reservation, BUT we love sitting at the bar. There we can talk with the bartenders and get alot of information.
I had a chicken dish with artichokes and capers on it....DELISH!! Louis had the meatloaf both were recommended by the bartender and the other by a patron sitting at bar with us.
Cocktails were on point. Prices were in line with other fine restaurants.
Restrooms were well taken care of too.
We didn't order desert because we totally cleaned our delicious dinner plate.
Oh the tomatoe Basil and mozzarella was appetizer

Visited tonight with high expectations due to the reviews already posted about this place and we were not let down.
The atmosphere is warm, sophisticated, and cozy, with a gentle upscale vibe.
Our waitress was Casie and she was so sweet and helpful as this was our first visit. Drinks, appetizers, and even our meals arrived prompt. We didn't wait long for anything. Casie made sure our drinks stayed full without us having to ask for refills.
For appetizer, we got the Garlic Focaccia bread with cheese and marinara (not pictured; it didn't last long enough!). I also ordered a side of roasted garlic

I've lived in Lafayette all of my life and I only went here once when I was a kid. I'm in my 30s now and I finally made it back. The service was top notch and very professional. I sat on the little patio outside and it was very nice. I had the Chicken parmesan and tried the Focaccia bread. Everything was tasty. Definitely a place to dine if you're looking for a quiet low-key spot. A great place for a date with your special someone.

This place has been a staple of mine for about 21 years. The atmosphere is romantic and cozy. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable. The food is absolutely delicious. I have tried almost everything on the menu plus the specials and cannot pick a favorite. My husband and I chose this place for our first anniversary dinner 10 years ago and it will continue to be our first choice.

Had an unsoUNpleasant EXPERIENCE. When I arrived, a couple behind me got greeted immediately & warmly, unlike mine. It was definitely not welcoming.
During some of my visit, I felt that I was invisible. Both two top tables had the red carpet attention... I was asked twice what would I like to order, the second time. Less than a minute after i ordered the 1st time!
During the meal. Other customers were warmly visited by numerous staff members!.
Nearing the end of the meal, I had to wave the attention of the manager and it didn't work. Both pair of customers heard me clearly as they turned around

I absolutely loved Antoni's....the atmosphere, the wait staff....Ryan was fantastic, the food is absolutely amazing and I look forward to going back and trying other items on the menu. We had the stuffed mushrooms, I had the house Italian salad, the bread was so good, my daughter had the Eggplant Parmesan entree and I had the Veal Scallopini with Marsala Mushroom Sauce, veggies and the risotto. Both meals were exceptional, as was the appetizer.
