FROM THE OWNERS

Greetings, friends!

This weekend, we’re pulling out all the stops with a special that’s bold, briny, and absolutely indulgent: Seared Head-on Gulf Shrimp lounging atop Linguine Carbonara, with shallots, sage, Parmesan, and the pièce de résistance—guanciale. (What’s guanciale? Think bacon’s cooler Italian cousin, made from cured pork jowl and packed with umami goodness.)

Carbonara itself has some deliciously debated origins, but most roads lead to Rome—where this creamy, silky pasta became an icon of simple, satisfying decadence. Pair it with a crisp white like Arneis or Orvieto, or go rich with a Barbera, if you’re feeling bold.

Of course, balance is key, so start fresh with our paired Watermelon, Mint, Feta & Sumac Salad, because summer vibes are approaching, and we’re ready.

Speaking of fresh, our Salad Special is a vibrant mix of Arugula, Fresh Berries, Spiced Almonds & Feta in Blood Orange Vinaigrette—a tart, tangy masterpiece.

Now, we might be Italian, but we’re never ones to miss a celebration. With Cinco de Mayo on Monday, we’re raising a glass to our friends south of the border with our weekend cocktail special: The Cinco Smokeshow—mezcal, aperol, lime juice, agave nectar, fresh watermelon, and a salty rim. Spicy, smoky, and just the right amount of wild.

And because May is the gateway to summer, our Dessert of the Month is a true seasonal superstar: Strawberry Shortcake, featuring Fresh Strawberry Compote over Homemade Pound Cake Crumbles, topped with Fresh Whipped Cream. Basically, happiness in dessert form.

So, what’s the move? Reserve your table, bring a friend, and let’s celebrate flavor this weekend at Antoni’s! We’ll have the pasta twirling, the cocktails shaking, and the desserts waiting.

Buon appetito, and we'll see you when you get here!
