    #11. Cold Chicken Sub
    Cris K.

    I got the sub and if I'm honest, everything was really good. Except the bread. It was thick, no bite, just cold baked though. I would've really preferred sourdough bread or even just standard Italian sub bread, not the pizza dough kind. Price was good though, for the size. Anyway, the search for the perfect sub continues!

    Good solid pizza that is a 4 or 5 star. What makes it a definite 5 star is the owner. He used to work at a desk job and decided to follow his passion and make pizza. Not only is it a great story but he is very personable with his customers - how a business should treat customers. Only had a few plain slices and heated them at home. Crust could be a bit less chewy but otherwise the pizza was spot on. Maybe ordering a fresh pie right out of the oven and eating then would make it even better. Go to Ralpho's if you are in the area - even if you are not right in the area. It is worth the trip to see how an old school establishment is run and how an owner takes pride in his work and his customers.

    I've never been to a pizza place where the owner seem ls so passionate about making great pizza for his customers. I love coming here not only because they are beyond welcoming and warm, but because they make the best pizza in the area.

    Homemade bread made with love!

    A Calzone(Sausage) prepared by the owner is inviting. It is definitely well worth $9.

    Mavi's is easily in my top ten restaurants within the tri-state area. Each visit is memorable, the…read morefood is ALWAYS spot on, and the service is quick and cordial. I noticed that Mavi's has installed wall mounted televisions, which scroll menu items, specials, and upcoming events. This was my first time ordering from their brunch menu and it was outstanding. My Western Omelette (ham, onion, mushroom, pepper, egg, potato, arugula, almond slices) was an excellent choice. Every ingredient was fresh, the eggs were fluffy, and it was accompanied by a side salad and two large slices of multigrain bread. The other items were the artistically presented Avocado Salad (Avocado, tomato, onion crisp, sesame seeds, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, arugula mixed salad, almond slices with balsamic glaze and sesame dressing) and the Toowoomba Shrimp Donkatsu (crispy, golden-fried cutlet smothered in a rich, creamy, and spicy Cajun Toowoomba sauce with shrimp, onions, and mushrooms, served alongside a half-portion of pasta). This dish is succulent, creamy, pleasantly spicy, and thoroughly enjoyed. I'll never dine at Mavi's without ordering a Kimchi Bulgogi Pizza (tomato sauce, mozzarella, onion, mushroom, bulgogi beef, kimchi, scallion, spicy mayo drizzle). Not only does every ingredient dance in your mouth, but the soft beet infused crust makes this one of the best pizzas I've happily savored.

    I've had bingsoo (shaved ice) at Mavi's before, but this was my first time trying their actual…read morefood. I was excited to finally order dinner after hearing good things, but my husband and I were unfortunately disappointed with the experience. We ordered takeout for dinner: Toowoomba Shrimp Pasta with Tonkatsu and the Spicy Original Tteokbokki (rice cakes) with Fried Kim-ma-ri (fried seaweed rolls). The shrimp pasta had good flavor but the portion was way too tiny. After only three or four bites, it was gone. There were about 4 pieces of shrimp in the entire dish and they could've added more pasta, given that it's not an expensive ingredient. The tonkatsu was also underwhelming. It was a small piece served in a large container that made the portion size look even more skimpy. I was also disappointed in the tteokbokki. It was mostly sauce with no egg and only a few pieces of fish cake, again served in a container that was far too large for the amount of food provided. The kim-ma-ri pieces were fine but also very small. Overall, the meal was underwhelming. For a total cost of nearly $50, the quantities were just way too small. We were left feeling unsatisfied and still hungry.

    Small Italian restaurant with great food and great service…read more Wife and I were looking for a spot to celebrate a special dinner and we decided with Porto By Antonio after reading their great reviews. We made reservations on their website and glad we did. It's a small space and while seated we saw a lot of folks walking in and being turned away. Service was super attentive and on us the whole night. And not in a bad way. We ended up getting the Pulpette for appetizers and for mains the Quattro Formagio pizza, the Spaghetti Carbonara and the Ravioli of the Day. The Pulpette was amazing. Grandma making the meatballs kinda experience. So tender. So juicy. A must when coming. The Quattro pizza was also very good. Good crust. The Spaghetti Carbonara was a bit on the salty side but nothing my Italian beer (Birra Moretti) couldn't save. The Ravioli was perfectly cooked and seasoned perfectly. For dessert we opted for the Creme Brule and of course had to end the night with the Pistachio Cannoli and a Double Espresso because why not. Both desserts were outstanding and the coffee was perfect. Overall it was a wonderful dining experience which I would highly recommend. Kudos Porto By Antonio.
