Sadly, we tried to eat there in October 2013 only to find the restaurant was closed. Apparently, it's been closed since July.
This place is great - sits in a small secluded piazza - the linguine and blue lobster was terrific as were the prawns - however, the burratta in fennel? amaIng! one of the most amazing things I have tasted
I highly rec
We've been to Antico many, many times and the rack of lamb is amazing AND huge (count 8 ribs). The service is great and they even have specials from time-to-time, making their diners an incredible value.
The location is good since there are lots of parking on side streets. The place is not crowded at all. Very few clients comes in and most of them are probably regulars. The washroom is clean and is located at the basement.
Now, for the food .... I say average ... but the price ... is quite expensive. For 2...

We had a great dinner. Very good quality, very good service. This is a family run operation and really feels like that.
About at least 30/person + wine for a 3 course meal but worth it. We will be back
It's in an odd location on Somerled Avenue - I suspect they might do better on Sherbrooke St. - but nevertheless the food was very good, tasty and fresh.
I found the service very good. Yes, it's a bit pricy but not overpriced for the atmosphere and food quality.
From start to finnish it was a delightful dinner. Homemade fresh italian bread, still warm. Bruschetta, very flavourful and perfect portions. The canellonni was excellent. We both had the meat stuffed cannelloni. THe sauce is just right. Cooked to perfection, not too soggy. Served piping hot. You cannot ask for anything more. An NDG icon for 35 years. You will... more
Antico Martini is a Montreal institution located on Somerled near Cavendish in NDG. It has always been one of our favorites to celebrate a special occasion. Excellent service, lovely relaxing atmosphere decorated in subdued tones, and the food is fabulous. I love the pasta with mussels and their house salad. There is a reason this restaurant has been around for... more
We have ordered a couple of different dishes to explore restaurant menu (from pastas to meat dishes) and no one was trilled - basically bellow our expectations. You can eat much better in some other Italian restaurants in the city and for less. Resume: - too pricy for what you get, some dishes had very plain taste/lack of flavor, ambient... more
Amazing food!!!! nicest people, amazing service, amazing atmosphere, everything at antico martini is amazing. They have supported and sponcered the ndg lynx (baseball team) They are awesome people, they have been there for the team, and any costumer who walks in.
It's been 14 years my family has been enjoying the atmosphere and food at Antico Martini. From our wedding reception to baptisms, confirmations, graduations and milestone birthdays and anniversaries...Antico Martini makes them memorable. Be it a romantic dinner for 2 or a celebration of 200 Antico Martini does it "RIGHT".
Thanks for the memories...See you New Years Eve!
A Disaster. We had a booking for 7.30 pm. They finally sat us down at a bare table just before 8PM. We sat there for almost half an hour before they set the table. Unfortunately we had invited friends for the evening so we could hardly decide to leave. The service was non existant. The food was only ordinary. We finally escaped at 10.30PM.
Service was snobbish. We were dressed quite informally...came from watching grandkids' hockey game. They finally seated us, even tho' there weren't many diners...then we sat and sat and sat and no one bothered to hand us a menu. When we got up to leave because of this, they became indignant. (We aren't exactly bag people...we live very nicely, thank you). Wouldn't go back.
Really nice atmoshpere, standard Italian menu. The escargot appetizer was to DIE for. Our meals were simple but very good.
Great food. Great service. They will go out of their way to please the customer. Is now one of my favorite places. You should go!
the veal marsala is to die for....great service...nice ambiance for a quiet dinner. Always one of my favourites
This restaurant has a beautiful decor and the service is impeccable. The food is excellent as well, try the avocado and shrimp appertizer which is absolutely decadent.

Affordable menus make this one a number one choice for value.Recommended at 100%.Belle ambience et bonne bouffe.Restaurant classique sans etre trop dispendieux. Des menus onctueux et abordable font de ce resto le choix no. 1. Recommandée a 100%.
Just a regular "italian" restaurant. Service was great, we were the only ones in the place. Nothing special about the food ,CJAD Don`t order the primavera.
Family owned Italian restaurent located West of Decarie Blvd. Excellent quality food very well prepared, moderately prices. Dining room is charming and beautiful and the service is excellent. For us this is a neighbourhood restaurant that we've loved since 1984. This is where we spend New Year's Eve every year because George and Gerry really create a lovely New Year's Eve ambiance and special... more
