Food was good as always, I had the Italian Pot Roast and The House Salad Nice ambiance and athmosphere Busy as always Service was very good, my server was nice My only disappointment every time I come to Lettuce Restaurants is the Surcharge they charge ... for what ? Covid Time it's over You can ask your server to have it removed and they will take it off read more

Wonderful selection of modern Italian. Most delicious menu items, gelato is exceptional. The chocolate peanut butter torte used to be a family favorite, but they have removed it from menu unfortunately. Always treated respectfully and attended to immediately. Seating is very comfortable, bathrooms always cleaned and in good order. read more

If you're looking for a delightful Italian dining experience, I highly recommend Antico Posto. This charming restaurant offers a warm and inviting ambiance, perfect for a cozy dinner or a special celebration. Service was top notch. Food was amazing! read more

I have been hearing about this place. Everything is made in house. You can definitely tell that the ingredients are good quality. A Lettuce Entertain You gift card is what brought us in, to be honest. My favorite item was the Calamri, it was done very well. Everything was great, I just felt the food was lacking flavor. We even asked for Parmesan cheese, but still was lacking something. I couldn't put my finger on it. The noodles seemed, again, flavorless. I'm thinking this is what authentic Italian is like? I guess I just got used to the Americanized version of Italian food. But overall, presentation and service were great. I think I'd like to come back and just try their Alfredo pasta. Oh yeah, dessert was excellent. read more

Everything was very good! Fun fact the pasta is almost all homemade which I did not know. I got the chicken piccata and asked for a different noodle and they recommended the pasta in my photo. It was a great meal for lunch! read more

My work team met for dinner at Antico Posto for a team-building and celebratory meal. The food was very good - I had the pizza margarita - and my colleagues throughly enjoyed the homemade pasta. However, the service was horrible. Toward the end of our 2.5 hour meal that did not include appetizers or dessert, we honestly began to feel like the server was purposely avoiding our table. We watched as he turned tables around us twice while we had to wait 30 mins to even put in our first food order. So this had nothing to do with being short-staffed. We would have liked dessert but we couldn't flag him down so we decided to pass. Very disappointing and somewhat disturbing. The two stars was a unanimous rating from the 5 of us. read more

Antico Posto - Pizza margarita - Italian Near Me - Oak Brook, Illinois

My family and I celebrated my birthday dinner at Antico posto since it has been my favorite restaurant since high school. I feel as though Antico posto quality had only increased in the few years and even flourished during covid..... but as of July - 9 - 2024 I left Antico feeling extremely disappointed and dissatisfied with my meal. My boyfriend and I get the same thing every single time because it truly WAS an unbeatable meal, the spaghetti bolognese with homemade noodles and homemade meat sauce was to die for. BUT they changed the recipe to what tasted like a barilla box spaghetti and canned ragu sauce for $21. I was extremely disappointed and will not be returning until the recipe changes back to the original. Not sure who is in charge of the menu changes but that spaghetti tasted like an Olive Garden kids dish. Also where did my spinach avocado salad and polenta fries go? read more

We decided to try Antico Posto tonight because we were in Oak Brook to run some errands. We had reservations and were seated promptly. Waters, bread, and wine came promptly. We then placed our dinner order. And waited. And waited. It was over an hour before the food arrived - around the time I was ready to request a check for the drinks and go home to make PB&J's. The food did not impress us. My wife's salmon was cooked nicely, but her crispy potatoes were overcooked. My ravioli was okay, but the pasta seemed dried out and the dish was sort of warm but not hot. I've eaten ravioli from Trader Joe's that was better. We are not likely to return. There are so many restaurant options in the area with more interesting food and reliable service. read more

Pretty good! If you're looking for classic Italian food you've come to the right place. I tried the eggplant parm (a little heavy but total delicious comfort food!), the chicken parm (good but it could have used more flavor and the pasta it came with was just okay), and the funghi gnocchi (wish there was more of a bite to the gnocchi). All in all it was a good meal and I think I've just had so much Italian food lately that the bar has gone up lol. We also tried the pistachio ice cream and tiramisu, both of which were good. The service was wonderful and I loved the space. Would love to come back and sit outside sometime! read more

Best cheese gnocchi on the planet!! We had gnocchi Bolognese, spaghetti bolognese, chicken Parmesan and a chicken mushroom heaven dish on creamy polenta. All were 5 star. Our server Hector was awesome. He wasn't even upset that after the bottle of wine, one at our table was calling him Herbert, cause that's the street they live on. The cappuccino was awesome, the desserts were awesome. Tiramisu was not real wet, like at some places. I looooved the Panna cotta. I posted pics of most dishes. Will definitely be here again!! read more

Decide to try this place on a whim as a spontaneous suggestion after my fiancé, got some dental work done in the same building. we did not have any reservations, but we were able to be seated immediately in there covered patio surprisingly it was pretty warm however my were a little cold because it was very windy LOL. We had a Reisling to drink and it was good. Our waiter was nice and attentive, and they pay close attention to food allergies. The bread was quite unique as it came with plate mixture of Parmesan cheese, olive oil, and vegetables, which I thought was very cool. I haven't seen that at an Italian restaurant before usually it's butter or Olive oil. my fiancé ordered tomato, basil soup, and that was very flavorful, creamy and delicious. Almost tasted like a pizza soup. For an entree I ordered the italian sausage brick oven pizza and my fiancé had what is pictured below. i didn't take a picture of my food because i was going to take his food as i wanted something more hearty but ended up liking my pizza and decided to eat that. I really enjoyed the pizza , i'll definitely be back because i want to try that chicken parmesan. read more

Great date night spot! Our food was awesome drinks too. New cranberry sangria was a hit. For me. Our server Autumn was amazing too

Ok so am on gluten free diet so I decided to go with my son to Antico Posto hoping to see if our family friend was working today but unfortunately she must be on a vacation. I know I know I specialize in Italian food but did not want to go home and cook. We had grilled calamari it was cooked to perfection not burned, and what I cook everyday lol roasted Brussels sprouts with ricotta cheese, I am not a big fan of gardineria we had seconds it was so delicious not salty at all. My son had gnocchi with mushrooms I took his word but I can no longer eat mushrooms so I did not taste them. I had a margherita with extra basilico but did not appreciate the saltiness of the garlic oil. I just has a slice. The service was great we had a very nice waiter so he brought us more warm bread yum. The ambiance was hectic for a Monday but service was quick and perfect. My son had two non alcoholic fruit drinks he said it was good. I love the name antico posto. I wish they had Italian music in the background to match the name. I was in a gluten high so that is why I did not eat much. Although my specialty at home is to cook Italian. I learned from the best my mother in law. When she would visit Chicago she would teach me tricks although her son is the best chef here in the burbs he does not share recipes nor tips on how to do something. The chicken looked good from far. I had a tastes for suppa di pesce but I did not see it in the menu. Over all the food was good and the service was fantastic Ciao read more

Good food, drinks, and pizza. Feels like old school Italian. Easy parking at the mall. A place to go back to. Has happy hour.

Antico posto is a cute, romantic place for some great Italian food. In a Friday night, it was pretty busy as expected - so our wait was a bit lengthy. However, once we were seated, our server was pretty consistent and attending. Unfortunately, there was a slight mixup with our order, but our server was quite apologetic and corrected it immediately. The food was good, appetizers came out first. Drinks were nice, complimenting for the food. Desserts were tasty, rich and full of flavor, so basically couldn't go wrong with any of those. It's definitely a place I'd come back to, for date night, double dates, family celebrations, etc. so be sure to put it on your list to try at least once! read more

Wine was great. Food was delicious. Seating was less than stellar and the service was just okay, which is why they lost a star.

On of our favorite. Gnocchi is like eating clouds. Service always good. Never disappointed. Love the atmosphere.

Met some clients for a business dinner. The evening was on the perfect side. This is a more upscale, but still casual (we were in jeans and sweaters that we wore to the office) Italian restaurant that has great service and great food. I started with one of their cocktails, their spin on an Old Fashioned. Was very light and flavorful. Perfect to start. They also bring out an olive giardiniera mix that was so fresh and flavorful with some bread. I asked for some cheese and they did a fresh grate into a dish at the table. Perfect. We all ordered different pasta dishes that were very flavorful. The pasta is made on premises and really tastes it. Great selection of dishes, including vegetarian and fish dishes. The prices were great too. This is a fantastic find in the mall. read more

Really good Italian food snd generally generous portions. We had Chicken Parmesan, Spaghetti Bolognese, Brussel sprouts and Arugula Salad to go. $77 before tip and came with fresh baked Italian bread and olive oil with cheese. They omitted their complimentary giardinara but otherwise yummy. Sprout order seemed a bit small for price but other portions were generous read more

Super good. Fast service and delicious food. Drinks are powerful too. I will say that the prices are a little high but not compared to other places in Oak Brook Center. The polenta and steak dish is especially tasty. read more

Decent food, really good bread but a bit overpriced. We had the calamari, ravioli, and bolognese gnocchi. Gnocchi wasn't very soft but tasty nonetheless. Service was decent but got to us very quickly and disappeared. Very nice inside, a clean bathroom and the outdoor seating was a very comfortable temperature. read more

If you're looking for delicious Italian and you're in the Oakbrook area, go to Antico Posto! We arrived a little early for our reservations and grabbed a drink at the bar while we waited for the rest of our party to arrive. The bar seemed a little small as the restaurant was packed. Once we sat down, we ordered a couple of apps to share. The roasted beet salad with goat cheese and arugula was good but I enjoyed the crispy cauliflower slightly more. It was covered in pesto and toasted pine nuts. For my entree, I decided to try their signature gnocchi. It's a variation from the traditional gnocchi which is made with potato. Instead Antico makes it with ricotta cheese so it is much lighter and softer. I ordered the gnocchi with mushrooms in a brown butter sauce with crispy sage and parmesan. I didn't want the meal to end! The gnocchi had an amazing texture that just seemed to melt in my mouth and the sauce was so flavorful that I used the last of the bread to soak it all up. For dessert, I ordered the chocolate budino which is a pudding cake. It was very rich and had more of a dark chocolate taste. The cake was creamy and paired perfectly with the vanilla gelato made in house. read more

Love love love!! Bolognese is my favorite! Amazing wait staff. Hostesses can be standoffish so I would recommend reservations.

We have been to this restaurant 3 times and let me tell you I was so pleased with everything. Food is delicious and so tasty. Staff are so friendly and welcoming. The place is so easy to get into and such a warm atmosphere. I celebrated my birthday there last night and it was a perfect experience. Will definitely recommend them and looking forward to dine there again! read more

3.5 - 4 STARS Speeding down a traffic jammed road is not fun when you're running late to a reservation (recommend a reservation, place was packed), but when we showed up we were the only two from our party of seven there. I was thinking "oh boy! I hate being late to a reservation" and I'm sure restaurants don't like it either, BUT......... they were great and they seated us immediately. Greeted by our server who set the two of us up with some bread that was accompanied by oil with a drizzle of balsamic sprinkled with Parmesan cheese and an olive based (medium spiced) giardiniera. It was definitely different from your typical seasoned oil and parm concoction. Very tasty!! (If you like spicy). Started with Fried Calamari - heavily breaded and oily, it was decent, but there is definitely better out there. Chicken Meatballs - yes, that's what I said, chicken - was one of the best bites of the night. Topped with arrabbiata sauce (slightly spicy) and fresh basil. Burrata Caprese - I can't speak to this personally as I don't do that gooeyness inside this cheese but I heard it was really good. I'm not sure I believe them so I wouldn't expect you to. Lol If you've made it this far and haven't gotten bored. Here are two entries that my girlfriend and I ate. Cavatelli w/ Sausage - topped with arrabbiata sauce (slightly spicy). The dish was good, cavatelli was very al dente. I typically like al dente but this was a bit too much. Spaghetti Bolognese - This was the BEST bite of the night. It was ordered as is but with mozzarella cheese on top and baked to give the cheese a nice golden color. Desserts - The Housemade Gelato was a nice touch to the end of dinner. Chocolate Budino - although delicious, was simply a Lava Cake in my eyes. Tasted like it as well as looked like it. "Looks like a duck, quacks like a duck". All in all it was a great experience. Server was a good, he was funny and made it a better experience. Had a great time with friends. I would recommend eating here for sure. OH - finding and parking was a little tricky if you've never been. So if you are running late this will not help. Park in the Orange Parking Garage and walk up the hill to the right side of The Container Store. You'll walk right into it. This only makes sense when you get there. read more

I'll admit I was leery of this restaurant since it's located in the mall, but I read their reviews and decided to give it a try. Don't let the location fool you - this place is outstanding! We made a reservation and arrived right on time. Despite the place being virtually packed (on a Monday night no less), we were seated immediately and got right to work on the menu. Our server asked if we'd been here before and upon learning we had not, she gave us a quick but enthusiastic overview of what they are about there and she was also very helpful in recommending some things for us where we had questions. We elected to start out with the crispy brussel sprouts, which are served on a pillowy bed of house-made ricotta and topped with honey and balsamic. I will admit that I am a huge fan of brussel sprouts, but I've never had them prepared quite this way and now I am going to want them done this way everywhere I go. I could have ordered another plate of those for dinner and been very satisfied but I ordered the pesto salmon instead. This is served on a bed of grilled asparagus (served al dente - not mushy - just the way I like it) along with a risotto cake, which was excellent in its own rite. My wife had the shrimp linguine and enjoyed it as well (nice level of spice to it and a generous portion as well). We ended the meal with a molten lava cake which is not pictured because we dove right into it upon arrival. Bottom line is this is a bit tricky to find and yes, it's in a mall, but it is 100% worth the trip. The fact that they are wall-to-wall full on a Monday night tells me the secret is out and people know this is a phenomenal find. And Yelp remains batting a thousand with me - I went here based on the recommendations and this place lives up to its well-earned hype. I can't wait to go back. read more

Dined on the patio AT Antico Posto. Been waiting since last Fall to do that. (Hubby is immunocompromised, so we do not dine indoors at restaurants.) And we were not disappointed! The Whitefish was fresh, perfectly prepared and delicious. The strip steak with giardinera was excellent. The ckn meatballs were wonderful, as always. Their cheesecake is heavenly. Because it was Tuesday our Prosecco bottle was half off (wine, too on Tuesdays). And our waiter Hector was attentive, knowledgeable & experienced. Who could ask for more? read more

This place is ok that's all. Let's start with the costumer service. That was just amazing, we were greeted with a smile and both hostess were super nice. We had a reservation at 3:15 got there at 3:00 pm but we were seated right away. It was nice to have such a nice and professional waiter. No issues with the costumer service. Now, the place's ambience is very clean and very aesthetically pleasing. It's a causal place to eat at, but the way this place looks makes it have a fancy upscale feeling. Now the let down, which was supposed to be the best part of the whole experience, the food.The food was ok, nothing out of the world. I had the spaghetti bolognese, it tasted like a school lunch spaghetti. The salmon was way overcooked. Now the bread was the only good thing we ate. The fried squid was ok, nothing special. The 3 is only for the amazing costumer service. read more

What went well? Every.single.part of our baby shower. AP was by far the best venue we've ever hosted a party at. Aside from the unbelievably delicious food, the service was outstanding. We even got comments about how great Adan, Spencer and Jose were. Honestly, we've never had better service anywhere. Cheryl, the event planner was exceptional as well. They even printed out beautiful menus. We had the beet/avocado salad, whipped ricotta and crispy Brussels sprouts for appetizers. Then, we had gnocchi and cavatelli w sausage. The entree was chicken piccata. For dessert, we had tiramisu and gelato. When have you ever had each part of a meal taste exquisite? We did. Bravo Antico Posto. Highly recommended for events (and dining) read more

Chaotic service put a damper on an excellent meal. We were seated promptly. The bus boy filled our water glasses, but in his haste also drowned the table. We ordered cocktails, and waited a long time for them to be delivered. Our dinners came out just a moment after the salads arrived. We had them take the plates to the kitchen for warming. But after finishing the salads, we waited too long to have the plates brought back. Our wine didn't arrive until we had eaten a good portion of the meal. The staff was friendly and working as fast as possible, but the place was packed, causing the poor timing. However, the food was excellent, both the spicy rigatoni and the spaghetti with meatball special. We'll return after the Christmas rush is over. read more

I genuinely love this restaurant. I have come here all the time and will always recommend it to people and bring out of towners here. I love gnocchi , so I can be picky, and their gnocchi dishes are amazing. My favorite is the gnocchi Bolognese. I have also had some of their gelato's and so far my favorite has been blueberry cheesecake. Staff is also great and I've never had a bad experience eating here. I plan to keep coming back because this is hands down my favorite Italian restaurant local to where I live. read more

Have you ever been at a restaurant and heard the bus boy and bus girl talking about rats. "Big rats" not quietly. In Spanish. But very loudly. And when we told our waiter he said I don't know what to tell you, I didn't say it. The manager then came over and said "who am I to say what's wrong or right to talk about in a restaurant " sooooo you guys tell me. Is it ok to hear the busboys talking about RATS when you're waiting to eat???? One thing is to hear it and another thing is for the manager doesn't know if it's wrong or right for the conversation should be about rats. I can also tell you that it took 45 minutes to give our order since our waiter was too busy gossiping with the rest of the bus boys. read more

I took my wife here for our anniversary. I made a reservation ahead of time and they didn't have our table ready, but they went above and beyond in every other way. They kept me updated on the table situation and worked quickly to get us the first available table.

They made recommendations on the menu and were super helpful. Experience and great service aside, the food was outstanding!! We will definitely be going back with friends. They even gave us a dessert on the house for our anniversary and the table mix up. Highly recommend! Thank you for making our anniversary special! read more
