Food was excellent and the service was fantastic! Owner came out and visited with us and definitely has a passion for what he does!

Food was delicious, service was great. Waiter was a delight! Trust his suggestions! If we lived closer this would be our spot!

The menu is limited. The food was mediocre and expensive for what it was. Not terrible, just not great

Outstanding meal! Wonderful experience with the staff. Antons recommendations or spot on!He told me, when we started that we would lick the plate, and I almost did. You must give them a try when you have time.. read more

We had a wonderful first experience at Anton's Craft Kitchen! The owner greeted us personally and even surprised us with a complimentary appetizer, which was such a thoughtful touch, and it was absolutely delicious. I ordered the chicken and shrimp fettuccine, and the chicken was incredibly moist and packed with amazing flavor. Every bite was rich, creamy, and seasoned perfectly. My husband ordered the Chicken Parmigiana and really enjoyed it, and my son loved the catfish. The food was excellent, the portions were generous, and the hospitality made the experience even more memorable. You can tell they genuinely care about their customers. We'll definitely be back and look forward to trying more of the menu! read more

All the food is prepared and served with great flair! Anton is very highly trained internationally, and very informative about cuisine. He'll even tell you what he wants you to have!! The ambiance is quiet. Soft French music was playing during our evening. The flavors are expertly combined to make a unique impression. Think 'French meets Mediterranean'. Prices are very reasonable, and there's no extra charge for Anton's wisdom, life experience, and entertainment. My wife and I loved our dining experience at Anton's Craft Kitchen. read more

Service great,food top notch excellent,ambiance clean, nice,love the French music playing The owner is funny the 1st time he will make you think your want something else when you were ordering the other thing lol read more

Unbelievable meal! I've driven past Anton's countless times and always told myself I needed to stop in--now I'm kicking myself for waiting so long. From the moment we walked in, Anton and his wife made us feel like family. Their warmth and personality shine through just as much as the food itself, and it's clear how much love they put into running this place. We came in at dinner and were seated right away. Normally I'm just a water drinker, but I tried the sweetened Peach Iced Tea--absolutely worth it. We had planned on ordering the Calamari, but Anton personally convinced us to try the Spinach & Smoked Eggplant Dip instead. He promised that if we didn't like it, he'd swap it out for the calamari. No swap needed--it was phenomenal! Served with warm pita, it was so flavorful that I'm still thinking about it a day later. For entrées, my wife had the Chicken Parmesan with spaghetti, and I went with the Fried Catfish paired with mashed potatoes. Both dishes came out beautifully plated and cooked to perfection. The Chicken Parm was tender and full of flavor, while my catfish--crispy, delicately crusted, and topped with their house craft sauce--was easily one of the best I've ever had. Of course, we couldn't skip dessert. We shared the cheesecake, which was a perfect finish, though I already know I'll be back to try the tiramisu next time. The food, service, and atmosphere all came together for a fantastic experience. Pricing felt very reasonable for the quality. Without hesitation, we'll be returning--this is a true gem in OKC! read more

If I could give 10/5 I would! This place is a true gem and it's no wonder they have the rating they do. I was served by the owner and he was incredible! I popped in for a cocktail and food to go as I'm staying nearby. He made me a special drink, not on the menu, and it was super yummy! I ordered the 12 ounce ribeye with salad and mashed potatoes but I don't think I could've done wrong with anything on the menu! He also gave me some of the eggplant dip and OMG YUMM!!! That is a must order! Everything was incredible! Made with love, you can tell! I only wish I was coming here more and could try more things! read more

As always, the food was OUTSTANDING!!! The owner talked us through the menu and even made special adjustments to his recipes to account for food allergies. Service was wonderful - very personal, you feel like a welcome visitor in his home. Can't recommend highly enough. read more

Went at straight up noon on a Tuesday and only 4 people there, including us and I have no idea why! Friendly service, amazing food. Had the eggplant spinach dip, catfish and olive chicken and all were fantastic and definitely fresh made. The catfish had a very light almost tempura like coating and was great. Will be returning. read more

What a pleasant surprise when we decided to go to Anton's. The owner gave us a complimentary appetizer with eggplant and spinach served with warm pita bread. Delicious! My wife had the Harvest Medley and I had the Lemon Chicken. Both were fantastic! We will return! read more

I don't leave many five star reviews, because I think they should be reserved for the top 10% of restaurants in a city. But I would be lying if the food here is anything short of amazing. The only way you could fault the restaurant is by its outward appearance. But don't be deceived this is arguably the most underrated restaurant in Oklahoma City. Hands-down in my top five Oklahoma restaurants to go to. The combination of flavors are near impossible to describe. While the cuisine is different, I would place the flavor, palette on scale with Frida Southwest, Broadway 10, Café Kacao and Culprits. The spinach and eggplant dip, pairs, amazingly with the house salad dressing. This just became one of my new favorite restaurants, in OKC, I'm just disappointed I haven't discovered it sooner!!! Also if Anton suggests a dish just go with it! This man knows what he is talking about and will not steer you wrong. read more

Anton’s Craft Kitchen - Rose chicken and shrimp - Salad Near Me - Oklahoma City, Oklahoma

Our appetizers were the clear highlights of the dinner. The spinach & eggplant dip and fried mozzarella were home runs, they were just as delicious as the reviews said they were. I think the fried mozzarella is made in-house (but don't quote me on that) and came to our table piping hot; the cheese pulls were fit for a trendy IG or tik tok video. I had the fried fish with mashed potatoes, the mashed potatoes were "loose" (food people know what this means) and were somewhere around room temperature and luke warm unfortunately. My wife's shrimp over noodles weren't that great either. Her noodles also weren't very warm and were cooked to the point that they were far beyond al dente and were basically a limp, soppy mess. Anton is passionate about his restaurant, so I really hate to leave a review like this, but this is what my experience was. read more

My dad and I went here twice two days in a row and ordered different things. I couldn't decide on the jalapeno or mushroom burger and so I asked Anton and he said "both" and then made my burger with both, which was funny and appreciated. The second time, I ordered "The Green Olives." My dad had the chicken parm and the catfish. Everything was delish. Portion size is kind of small and I wish there was more veg in general, but Anton clearly has a vibe going on, so I don't necessarily think my changes are needed. read more

First timer here came on a Saturday night dinner party with a reservation around 7 It wasn't busy at all . The owner did a really good explanation of the menu and tips loved his excitement , it did take a little bit before they took our order but once we did it was greater service from there. I got the chicken parm which was good I did have to ask for more creamy craft sauce and I thought the chicken would have a crispy crust but it did not. It wasn't loud and overall good place everyone's food was good and loved the pita bread. read more

Anton’s Craft Kitchen - Steak and pasta - Salad Near Me - Oklahoma City, Oklahoma

There are restaurants where you choose your meal, and there are restaurants where the meal chooses you. Anton's Craft Kitchen is definitively, gloriously the latter. Anton, the owner, is on the floor, at your table, and invested in your experience in a way that most restaurant owners stopped being long ago. He will guide your order. He will override your instincts when they'd lead you somewhere less than extraordinary. And he does it out of genuine love for what his kitchen produces. We surrendered the menu. Let him choose for us. It was the best decision we made. THE FOOD The Chicken Parm is the dish the kitchen was built around -- hand-breaded chicken in Anton's creamy craft sauce that is rich, precise, and unlike anything you've had under that name before. The plate came back spotless. Not out of politeness. Because leaving anything behind would have been a mistake. The Green Olive is the sleeper hit -- sliced chicken, green olives, onions, and lemon garlic sauce that is warmer and more comforting than the name prepares you for. Savory, gently briny, deeply satisfying. Anton pairs dishes for couples deliberately, so the meals across the table match and complement each other. The contrast between the Chicken Parm and the Green Olive is not an accident -- it is a decision. You taste the difference between a restaurant that thinks about your entire experience and one that just takes your order. He loves your experience as much as his food. He stresses the food will change every meal because it is homemade, and it is. Wow. The Smoked Eggplant Spinach Dip opened the meal with real intention -- smoky, complex, four cheeses, served with garlic flatbread. You will want to lick the plate clean. The Fried Mozzarella is what fried mozzarella should always be and almost never is. The peach tea is exceptional in a way that a beverage has no right to be when the food is competing for your attention this hard. PEFECT! Make sure to ask for it in Anton's way. His way is better. DESSERT Every dessert is made in-house from scratch and you taste it immediately. The Bourbon Pecan Pie has actual bourbon in it -- present, warm, unapologetic -- woven into a filling that is rich without being cloying, with a deeply caramelized pecan top and whipped cream that is the only accompaniment it needs. Top shelf in every sense. The Cheesecake is the real thing. Dense, genuine, not artificially sweet -- a tall ivory slice on a proper graham crust with a strawberry drizzle that brightens without overwhelming. This is what cheesecake is supposed to be and rarely is anywhere else. Anton's Craft Kitchen is the rare restaurant that exceeds every expectation you didn't know you had. The food is cooked with care. The desserts are made with love you can actually taste. The experience from first bite to last is without a single complaint -- because there isn't one to make. Every plate came back spotless. We will be back and the hamburger is next on our hearts! read more

We came in to try Anton's based on stellar reviews and recommendations. It feels very much like you are going to dine at the home of a family member. We were greeted right away by Anton, and he had a great personality. The service was personable throughout. We did have to wait and finally ask for our check, but this was no problem since we were talking with friends. The food was very good. We were encouraged to order different things so we could sample from one another's plate. This is how our group usually dines, so we ordered four different entrees (chicken parm, olive chicken, veggie platter and chicken and shrimp). All were very good because all were very similar. They all had the same sauce and were all served over pasta or rice, so there really wasn't much variety at all in what we ordered. I found this to be interesting. Maybe we could have tried a burger or sandwich, but we were going for the house specialties. The restaurant was spacious and clean with numerous booths and a bar in the center of the restaurant. One thing I thought was curious, is that Anton told us he was going to bring us an appetizer that he thought we would love. He said if we didn't like it, he wouldn't charge for it. I was a little surprised to see that we were charged for it (it was good) since we didn't actually order it. And I saw that he took it to all of the other tables, so I guess this is a common technique here. I would definitely come here again and recommend it to others. You do feel like you are supporting a small business which is always nice. read more

Anton's craft kitchen is a hidden gem! Not only is the food delicious the service is spectacular. Three of us went in for lunch greeted by Anton and his awesome personality. We started with Spinach & Eggplant dip with garlic flatbread - delicious! I have the pork schnitzel, hand cut pork tenderloin, breaded and pan pan fried to a crispy tender golden brown. The side was a delicious flavorful rice topped with a creamy sauce. pictures. My friends had the chicken fettuccine also outstanding and flavorful. ample seating, great atmosphere. Excellent customer service! read more

What an experience for lunch! Anton himself served us, and suggested we let him pick what we would have. He started us off with the smoked eggplant and olive oil appetizer and a salad. Amazing! Then he brought us the catfish and green olive dish. It was all done to perfection. We highly recommend Anton's. And can't wait to return! read more

Granted, we went early for lunch but the food was amazing, the service was just right (socializing women). We didn't feel rushed or ignored. Ambiance was great- we could hear each other. Anton introduced us to an eggplant appetizer that was delicious with the warm pita bread. We will definitely back. The sauce on Rose's chicken made me want to lick my plate. Wonderful salad! read more

Too many good things to say about this place! The owner was so inviting and made you feel comfortable like someone who knew you personally and had you over for a meal. The restaurant was clean and airy. Service impeccable (of course). We had a family of six and he chose most of our parties meals. It started with the eggplant dip with bread for starters (deliciously light!), the family ordered the catfish, green olive chicken, chicken parm, shrimp and chicken, and the picky eater order a hamburger, all came with a large flavorful salad as well. We all tried each other's plates and there was not a clean plate when we left! The prices were normal for a restaurant serving this quality of food. Support this local gentleman! He is a treasure here in OKC to have! read more

Anton’s Craft Kitchen - Chicken parm - Salad Near Me - Oklahoma City, Oklahoma

Anton's is not your run of the mill restaurant. It's definitely a unique experience. And we didn't even meet Anton! We were greeted by a young, friendly hostess who ended up being our server as well. She asked if we had ever been there before, and when we said no, she said we were in for a treat. The restaurant is well maintained with a modern interior, center bar area and TVs for sports viewing. The best word I can use to politely describe this place is "presumptuous". We were given the spinach and eggplant dip appetizer without ordering it. We NEVER order appetizers so this was a little weird, especially when we were told we didn't have to pay for it if we didn't like it. Hubs enjoyed it, but it was just okay to me. The presentation could be better. I wouldn't put a dip on a plate. I didn't take a photo for that reason. Hubs got the ribeye steak with garlic butter sauce and loved every bit of it. He is a strict keto eater so he did not have any veggie option but to get "double salad". He ate the whole bowl. I thought it tasted like Olive Garden salad (which isn't a bad thing, in my opinion). Our server said it was their house made dressing. Another presumption is spice level. I cannot even have red pepper flakes on any food. It would've been nice to ask me first. Maybe because we went on a night where Anton wasn't out greeting guests, I was surprised to see it on my Lemon Garlic Chicken with mashed potatoes. Other than the spice, it was a little "one note" to me. This is more of a sauce, a lot of it. I used the buttered flat bread to finish all of my food. We do want to try this place again, but I'm personally hesitant that asking for simple requests would not go over well. Idk, we'll see. They obviously take a lot of pride in the food that they make. As others have mentioned, this place is definitely not for everyone. read more

The owner was the waiter. He wanted to pick our food for us which was a different. The menu is very limited & the food was not worth returning. Anton told us that Trump shouldn't be alive & we thought that was inappropriate. Talking politics should be off limits whatever your opinion is. The atmosphere was dull & the restaurant needed a good cleaning. Would not recommend. read more

Amazing experience at Anton's Craft Kitchen! We were warmly greeted by a super friendly hostess who surprised us with the eggplant dip appetizer--it was delicious, especially with their homemade bread. The fried catfish with mashed potatoes and chicken parmesan were both fantastic--crispy, flavorful, and felt like elevated homemade food. The cheesecake was the perfect finish. Everything is homemade and it's clearly a proud family-run business. We'll definitely be back! read more

The minute we walked in, we said this was an Applebees. Anton greeted us like family. He spent time answering all of our questions and discussing the unique menu. His wife was so sweet and his 2 young daughters were adorable. We had the eggplant appetizer 10/10. Then a shared house salad 10/10. I had the green olives over mashed potatoes and it was phenomenal. Hubs had the 6 oz ribeye and spaghetti- he said the steak perfectly seasoned and cooked and the spaghetti he could eat an entire bowl full. They had very pleasant music playing. We will be back to try other dishes for sure. read more

The food and service were amazing! Mr Anton waited on us and was very helpful in dish descriptions. I had the olive chicken which was sliced thinly over a bed of tender rice and covered in the most delicious sauce ever. The olives were even sliced thinly as were the other vegetables in the sauce. So very good. My wife had the chicken sandwich which was nicely crisp and came with what she says was better onion rings than Johnnie's (and that is a high bar)! We will definitely go back and encourage our friends to dine there as well. read more

Oh my goodness! Fresh, local food, served with wonderful hospitality! The casual, clean atmosphere reminded me a nice European bistro. The owner visited us at our table and we talked about food and family! We ordered a delicious chicken sandwich which was a generous portion and easily shared between my husband and I. We can't wait to return at dinner and order a steak! We are big fans of locally owned restaurants. And Anton's didn't disappoint. We look forward to returning for dinner! read more

Amazing! The owner is so kind and helped us navigate the menu. The food was SO GOOD! We had a "surprise" appetizer and it was incredible. Casual and clean atmosphere. Give this place a try, but only if you want a great meal! read more

We walked to Anton's from our hotel, for a quick dinner and a drink on our last night in OKC. The reviews look great, the food look great... Seemed like the perfect place. When I walked in the place was empty there was one guy at the bar, so we sat at the bar. Couple of minutes after we sat down. It was pretty obvious that Anton was the bartender and the server. He told us he would bring us an appetizer, but we couldn't ask what it was just trust him. We did. And I like three minutes we had a basket of warm pita bread and a plate with a dip of some sorts. He then explained it was roasted eggplant with a lot of other greatness. It was delicious! Next, we asked him if we should get the burger? Or the steak or the catfish. He suggested we come back next time for the best steak and the best burger will ever eat. But he would provide us with the catfish and another surprise dish. Two of us agreed to share both and obviously trust the chef. The catfish came with whipped potatoes and a delicious sauce. It was fantastic the other dish I'm not even sure it was on the menu was creamy rice with a spicy sauce with shrimp and chicken. Quantity wasn't overwhelming, but it was sufficient for our meal. We talked to Anton since it was not busy... We couldn't believe the place was so empty. But we're sort of in a highway zone. Reliant upon people who stay in hotels and what not. He is not a chain! He is the one man band operation who makes craft food from scratch, with passion , and his whole heart. He shared a bit of his story that he came to Oklahoma to be a real estate investor, but his wife and himself couldn't stand the food options and he knew he could do better. So he bought a building of a restaurant. The lettuce in a bunch of restaurants that he's owned over the years. He's a kind soul, who cares about food, and people. If you are within driving distance, put this place on your to do list when you come to Oklahoma City. Just a few minutes north east of downtown, right off the highway. Trust Anton he'll take care of you. PS. Apologies for no pictures, the food came out so quick and was so good that I took none. read more

The best food is at Anton's! I had the bacon cheeseburger and it literally melted in your mouth! The beef is grass-fed and ground fresh in the kitchen! My husband had the catfish and it was delicious too! The ambience was wonderful! So friendly and relaxing! Anton comes out and talks to you and takes your order and prepares the food so well! He gave us a free appetizer and it was magnificent! Thank you Anton for a great lunch! read more

This rare gem was one of the best places I've ever eaten in OKC!!! There was only one thing more likable than Anton himself and that was his food. YUMMERS. He first brought us a killer spinach and eggplant dip w baked pita bread to dip in it. Heaven on Earth. Perfectly done. A freshly tossed salad, simple, but just the right amount of dressing. Almost didn't have room for entree I loved the appetizers so much. However, after tasting the fried catfish, I easily made my way through it like a wood chipper. So scrumptious w the special sauce. It was accompanied by mashed potatoes. Topped off with unsweetened Peach tea. I will be going back again and again! read more

Nice experience. We visited for the first time today for lunch. At Anton's suggestion, we started with the eggplant and spinach appetizer - it was exceptional.

Food was terrific. Chef fully explained the food and offered suggestions. It was amazing. Service was very good.

The owner served my wife and I. He was extremely polite and took the time to explain how he made the burgers. You can really tell that he cares about his craft. His face lit up when we told him that we were new customers. The burgers were amazing. Normally I don't eat all the veggies, but they were so fresh and juicy that I ate all of it. I plan on going back with the whole family. Great place! read more
