"WORST experience I've ever had"   My Rating
GUEST	Posted on: Thursday, April 16, 2009
	Review: If you have any sense at all...you will save your money and go somewhere else. First off, the service was terrible. We waited nearly 45 minutes for our $9.95/ea. bowls of French onion soup. $10 a bowl??? Seriously, it's onions. To make matters worse, the seating was so cramped that I could hardly take a sip of the outrageously priced soup without being bumped into by either a waiter or passing patron. Now here comes the best part...the bill. $76 for two bowls of soup, two main dishes consisting entirely of veggies, and two glasses of wine. AND THEY DON'T TAKE CREDIT CARDS. What??   Pros: Can't think of any * * Cons: Price * Management/cust, service * Wait times

The French Onion soup is $9.95, but its a huge crock (10 or 12 oz) versus what you get most places. And it's vegetarian...in this case the base is made from porcini mushrooms, which cost around $45/lb, sometimes more...instead of a cheap beef/veal base. So $10 to me doesn't seem out of line...but if you do, here is an idea....DON'T ORDER IT! The price is right on the menu. As far as getting a plate of veggies at a VEGETARIAN restaurant....well, that deserves no comment. I have eaten at this place maybe 50 times since moving to the Capital District in 1997, and the service has always been good or great. It is small and intimate, but I wouldn't call it tight and have never had an issue with what this reviewer claims...not once. Like lots of small family businesses, they don.... response by bitjockey - report abuse -

"Untouchable.................................."   My Rating

	Review: The best restaurant in the area by FAR! If you have not been here yet what are you waiting for? You meat lovers I am sorry to say that they do not have much on the menu as for red meat but if you want that then why are you going to a vegetarian restaurant? Unless it is to please the woman and that will not be a problem. However, if you love pasta you need to get down there. The sauce is untouchable as well as the fresh pasta. Salads, if you like them green this is the place to be. The veggie chicken is the best in Upstate NY as well as any other place I have been to. I myself love chicken but must say the veggie chicken is better than any other real chicken you can get out there. So sit back, enjoy the amazing selection of wine and be ready to leave full, with left over's. You will be back...........tell them Chris & Heather sent you!   Pros: * * Cons: * *

	Review: Nothing to rave about. The food was alright, but the price was not justifiable at all. It was also so dark! The service wasn't great either. I do not think I will be going back   Pros: Veg options * * Cons: Expensive * Mediocre food *

	Review: I have recently visited Antipasto's after reading raving reviews at the Best of... on Metroland Online. I was very, very disappointed. To sum it up in four words: Bad Service, Mediocre Food.   Pros: * * Cons: Poor service * Mediocre Food * Unfriendly staff

"Delicious and Inventive"   My Rating
1 kiki	Posted on: Tuesday, March 20, 2007
	Review: On the numerous occasions when I've eaten at Antipasto's I have had excellent, attentive service. There is a great selection of food and wine and desserts. There are few vegetarian restaurants of this quality and inventiveness in the Capital region. More expensive than most, but you pay for quality, and I'm willing to pay for the food and the service.   Pros: healthy & delicious food * stellar wine list * attentive service Cons: cash only * *

It is my belief that this review is by the owner of the restaurant, if not someone really close. The user kiki signed up on the same day as the review above and never contributed further. I smell something bad. Perhaps the owner should address the problems by changing the way they operate rather than posting false reviews.. response by Exit - report abuse -
