Reviews in County Durham

We visited Antico on Wednesday for the early bird special The place was nipping clean and well decorated, the staff were very friendly and the food was excellent and at £10.95 for 2 courses it was great value for money. I would recommend Antico to anyone and we will certainly be back soon. So top marks from me .

First visit to Antico Durham a couple of days ago, and more will follow! Great service, brilliant food at good prices.

Absolutely beautiful. Restaurant is typically Italian and the food is fantastic. Would return and happily pay full price. Staff were really attentive and service was brilliant. Took advantage and went twice during the offer. Fantastic restaurant. Highly recommend a visit.

First visit since Antico took over the restaurant. Food was excellent and presented well, service was equally excellent. We had really good night and it certainly will not be the last

Great food, wine and value.

First visit last Friday but will not be the last! Superb food, wonderful atmosphere, friendly and attentive staff - what more could you ask?

Went on a Saturday for the early bird offer. We both had potato skins for starters then pasta. Both meal were fantastic. The potato skin were lovely and crispy with an usual twist, think it was pamersam cheese melted on the top - really delious They was a great choice for pastas. The pastas were also lovely. I stayed safe and had bolonaise but my hustand had a dish with chicken, spicy sausage mushroom and pesta which was delicious. There was loads of meat and the mushrooms were unreal they was a selection of different mushroom, some were tiny - not what you can buy from your supermarket. So overall the quality and taste of the food was outstanding - better than any of the food we had in Italy - 2 weeks ago!! Also the staff were all lovely and we felt very safe. Hand gel as you walk in and also a bottle on each table. We will definately be back

Excellent service and food was delicious. A fab first family eat out in Covid times.

Gorgeous place. Food was beautiful and staff were lovely. Can’t wait to go back

Lovely restaurant, you have done it out to a very high standard Felt very welcome as soon as we arrived, food lovely and didn’t wait too long in between each course

Myself, my friend and our two teenage daughters enjoyed a delicious meal at Antico on Thursday evening. Everyone’s food was excellent and the staff couldn’t have been more helpful. Very Covid -19 aware too!! A fabulous evening all round. We’ll definitely be back.

Very good meal Excellent friendly and helpful staff.

Lovely night. Food 1st class, (think chicken dish should of included chips and veg or salad not just one of the 3) Nothing a bother for the staff. Very friendly. Covid precautions done well. Tables well spaced. All staff wore visors. Definitely recommend.

Me and my friend visited on Monday for the eat out to help out scheme and it was understandably a very busy night. Atmosphere was fantastic and all staff were extremely friendly and helpful. I ordered a shandy for a drink but the draught was off so I got a bottle of beer and a lemonade which was flat. However, then ordered a glass of rose which was delightful. We ordered halloumi fries and arancini for starter which were absolutely lovely. For mains we got the lamb and the stuffed chicken. The stuffed chicken was absolutely beautiful and the Calabrian sausage inside was very hot and spicy! My friends lamb was cooked pink as requested however it lacked substance. I do believe it was great quality food but for the price paid there should have been more on the plate for the lamb dish. We then ordered dessert and this is where it went downhill. My friend ordered profiteroles which were spot on. I ordered the chocolate brownie...and I couldn’t eat it as it was inedible it was that hard and burnt. We had to chase the waiters for dessert as it was 10pm and there was still no sign of it. The till had skipped and it was not the fault of the staff who were extremely apologetic and accepted full responsibility for the inedible brownie. This was taken off the price of the bill and was handled extremely well. So a very mixed bag but understandably the staff were at maximum capacity, dealt with the situation as best they could and were so helpful. It would not deter me from going back and I look forward to my next visit

We had a wonderful evening.The food is always delicious.The staff are all so friendly and helpful.We look forward to our next visit and would certainly highly recommend Anticos!!!Thanks to everyone.

Another lovely meal, you cant fault anything.

I had never been, but will definitely be going back! The staff couldn’t do more for you if they tried. And the maitre d' on the evening was so good. The food was lovely, afternoon specials menu, was very well priced. Next time I think we will try the pizza, as we had food envy with everyone that came out of the kitchen.

First Visit Since Opening, Fantasic Service, Food & Atmosphere. Can't wait for our next visit, booked straight back up. Regardless to the eat out help out scheme this will be our first go to restaurant. Thankyou
