Antico Restaurant Durham

Went for a birthday on a Sunday. The service was excellent, friendly, and accommodating (they even sang happy birthday, as it was my Dad's 75th). Their Sunday lunches were great. I had salmon, which I thoroughly enjoyed, and got to taste both beef and lamb. Both were so nicely cooked, tender, fall apart in the mouth. The calamari starter was cooked to perfection.

I highly recommend it for Sunday lunches, as it's the best I've had in the area. We will definitely be visiting again.

Lovely food reasonably priced friendly staff and service

We were recommended Antico from a work colleague. Couldn't thank them enough this morning. Everything we had was fresh, beautiful prepared, the perfect temperature. We will definitely be going back.

Visited with friends & we all enjoyed it. Warm welcome from helpful friendly staff. The menu was good & reasonably priced. We all enjoyed our visit & will be back. Thank you Antico!

Restaurant is stylish and comfortable. Front of house staff are professional, sociable and attentive.

The food is delicious and there is good variation on the menu. The price is a few quid more than its predecessor, so it's not necessarily a 'cheap and cheerful' meal out anymore, but you get what you pay for.

Would highly recommend to anyone visiting Durham or to those living locally, who are yet to give it a try.

Absolutely the best Sunday lunch I have had since being in the area. Would recommend this place to visit lovely food attentive staff warm and welcoming book a table you won't be disappointed.

We love Antico's in Durham...visited many times, including my husband's 60th birthday and for Christmas Day 2023. Excellent food and brilliant service from staff, very reasonable prices.

Absolutely fab. Food was the best I had for a long time, service unobtrusive yet there when needed. Really a treat will definitely be going back. And very reasonably priced, especially early bird menu! Still great but early bird menu more limited

Absolutely incredible! Ordered as takeout and still received restaurant quality. Large portions full of flavour and very filling. Worth every penny!

Genuinely the best steak I’ve ever had and they catered for gluten free well.

Excellent restaurant. Superb value. Very tasty food. Would recommend.

This was our first visit to Antico for our anniversary. We were pleasantly surprised. Could not fault the food it was very tasty and filling. The staff were lovely - we even got free desserts due to a tiny incident when a bottle of wine was needed from behind our table so we had to stand up for a moment while they got it - I didn't bother us in the slightest and free dessert was a lovely gesture. The prices are very reasonable. Its quite warm in here so dress lightly. The atmosphere was lovely and we will definitely be back.

Love this place. Friendly staff, excellent service, great pizza. Went in there with our young kids and everyone was extremely welcoming. Highly recommend.

Great food and great vibe! It offers a happy hour set menu which is of a pretty good value too. Will definitely be back!

An absolutely fantastic Italian restaurant , the staff are fantastic & so friendly & the food is top notch , i would definitely recommend this place if you like good food ❤

I went to durham for the first time for my wife's birthday and I wanted to take her for dinner for a special place. I selected antico after going through some reviews. I think I made the right choice. The staff was amazingly friendly and well trained. No words to express how delicious the food is. This is a highly recommended restaurant for anyone who is interested in Italian food which has a good mix and variety of choices. Definitely a place to visit next time when in durham. Keep up the good work team. Cheers

An excellent dining experience, great food, great service and an authentic Italian restaurant.

Good quality huge portion reasonable price

Probably the best Sunday lunch I've had in a long time... cooked to perfection... service amazing and wow... cheesecake to die for. Seriously you guys are great. Thank you for squeezing us in at the last minute too. That goes a long way in hospitality. Even had the privilege to meet your chef. Fantastic. You all have to try this place.

Went for a family meal for six tonight, all starters and mains were great and served well, the staff were great. The main I had, lobster ravioli was absolutely perfect to be honest and the whole table commented how nice the food was. It’s a little gem 5 minutes from the city centre, would definitely recommend
