My wife and I were actually recommended by an Italian restaurant owner here in our city. We cannot go to N.F. without dining at Anticas. Now the Falls itself is the second reason for us going to N.F.

Best Pizza you can get anywhere in the country, Canada or the US. We eat at Antica every trip to the falls. They have the best service also. The pizza is worth the trip! 4 trips in the last 2 years!

This is, overall, my favorite restaurant anywhere. We frequently drive all the way to Niagara Falls from Toronto just to eat there! I would recommend this place highly and have taken several friends and family members there since discovering it about 2 years ago. It is a family run, very clean and friendly place with incredible, mouth-watering home-made Italian food.
A definite must if you are in the Falls.

Pizza the old fashion way. The best wooden stove cooked pizza ever. Family owned rest. so the service is really friendly and quick to accomidate.

This is prehaps the best Pizza outside of NYC I have ever had, and better than some places in NYC. I grew up in Brooklyn NY surrounded by italian restaurants and pizza places, I know good pizza and this stuff is great. The service was fantastic and freindly.

I thought that when you were hungry you went to a restaurant to order food. But obviously they decide when you can order. We go to Niagara Falls 2 times a year and even thought the pizza was good I will never step into their establishment again.

During a family trip to Niagara Falls we had had several restaurant meals that ranged from mediocre to downright awful.Thankfully on our last day we discovered Antica pizzeria. Our meal consisted of pizza, ravioli, spaghetti, and gnochi. All of it was so good that we all wound up eating "family style", passing the different entrees around the table. My 10 year old son (a self-declared pizza freak) said it was the best pizza he had ever had. It was a very enjoyable dining experience and we'll be going back the next time we are in Niagara Falls!

i had the homemade gnocchi and it was awesome. my friend had the eggplant and it was awesome too. ceasar salad lacked full flavour. pizza here is the best. great prices too! i would recommend this place to anyone.

This is absolutely the BEST pizza place!!! My husband and I discovered Anticas 10 years ago and have gone back every year since! We eat lunch and dinner there every day that we are at the falls. We are from NJ and make sure that everyone we know goes on their trip. Service is always great and everyone is so friendly. Don't miss this pizza!

I've been making my own pizza every weekend for the last 15 years. Until I had an Antica pizza I thought there was nothing better. Wow, there is absolutely nothing negative I can say about this pizza. The dough is exceptional, the toppings to die for and the service unbeatable. There is a new number one pizza in my mind and it is easily Anticas'.

I love pizzeria antica, I visit there everytime I am in Niagara Falls, and I recommend them to everyone. I visit Italy often and your Pizza takes me back there. I thoroughly enjoy visiting you.

This was the best pizza I've had in a long time! The service was great. I was here with my girlfriend and my 2 boys age 7 & 9. The server was very nice and attentive to the kid's orders. I will come back every time I am in the Falls.

Went to Niagara Falls for our Honeymoon. I still dream about that pizza, best ever! Service was also excellent!

I drive all the way from Brampton just to satisfy my cravings!! Pizza is an obssesion to me and Antica makes the best pizza Ive ever had!

I don't know how this place is rated so well, I ordered Veal Parmisan and had to return it because it was cold. And for $14 not even a salad came with it. The veal was a cheap frozen patti, with cheap grocery store noodles with a cheap generic sauce. Service was speedy but poor quality. The utensils and napkins were just throw in the middle of the table, so I had to set the table, and we asked for water and she came with a pitcher and a stack of empty cups that I had to fill and serve to my family of 6. My food was cold and had to return it. My mother in law had the $8 pasta special, all this was was a bowl of cheap pasta in a cereal bowl once again with out a salad or any side dishes. My wife did have the pizza and said it was good. So if you go eat here just get the pizza and don't waste your money on their pasta dishes.

Wow, never had a better pizza , the #15 is amazing. we were there before the dinner rush and the service was still slow, but we had a seat where we could watch them make the pizza , definatly made you feel like you were in Italy. If in Niagara , get there before 5:30 to eat or you will be in a long line.. excellent, will Definatly eat there again..

Antica Pizzeria - is the best pizza in the world according to my husband and our kids ages 7, 9 & 12.  We visit Niagara Falls every summer and that is the most important stop of the trip.  We have it for lunch and dinner most of the time and make sure we carry out some for the ride back home.  We recommend it to all our friends and family that make a trip to Niagara Falls.  The homemade gnocchi is our fav. and the pizza of course is to a slice of goodness coming from a wood burning oven.  MANGIA MANGIA BUONE TUTTI A ANTICA PIZZERIA - forever fans from Rochester, NY.


Awesome pizza made by two real Italian pizzaiolos.... Worth a trip.

We found Antica's almost 10 years ago and it was love at first bite. The wood fired pizza is so amazing that we drive from Greece,NY (a suburb of Rochester) to niagara falls (1-1/2 hours) many times per year just to eat there! I have tried other dishes on the menu, never average or just good, always OUTSTANDING. Try the homemade gnocci! Given the location on "tourist row" I was expecting expensive, overpriced, lousy tasting, tourist trap, fake italian cuisine with bad service. ANTICA IS THE ABSOLUTE BEST !!! The food is spectacular. The prices are amazingly reasonable. The ingredients are only the freshest and the best, no skimping on quality. The service is great, a real family atmosphere. As much a place for a casual romantic meal as a family dinner. Skip the resteraunt chains, enjoy Antica!

The absolute best pizza I have ever had. They have so many different kinds and the size is perfect for 1. Cannot get enough.

Food was great service was ok but was very busy,it nice to go to a real restaurant in niagara falls ,not overly priced thank god,always stay in the fallsview area,reason eating at antica cause only busy restaurant in that area,that speaks for itself.

WOW ... greatest food ever. Great service but more so the greatest pizza i have ever tasted. I brought my relatives that just came from itialy and thay said that its better pizza than they get back home!

Delicious food. Good prices. We live in Toronto and have relatives in the States. We always look forward to our Niagara Falls stop so that we can eat here.

I just love this pizza. I could eat it everyday. Now this is what you call wood-oven pizza. Becareful of imposters. You need to see that wood burning. OOOHHH yes and the servers are HOT just like the pizza!!!!!!!

An amazing restaurant. staff is always friendly. servive is fast . def one of the best restaurant

I attended this restaurant many times, but in this date, I proposed to my wife. We drive all the way from Toronto for their pizza and it is worth it. The whole experience is great. Great pizza, great falls, great staff.
Well worth the drive and I highly recommend this restaurant.

The waitress was extremely nice and friendly to our table. And the food was delicious. Will be back for more in the future!!

I don't understand the other reviews! I sat at the outdoor patio and watched while others seated after me got served. I had to flag a waitress just to get a menu. A salad arrived at an adjacent table and they did not have cutlery to eat it with. My pizza was only average. Nothing to write home about. Zappi's Pizza is way better. It is a family owned restaurant. If you are into chain restaurants, go to Boston Pizza for food much superior to Cantina. I see no reason to return.

I ordered Veal Parmesan for $14 that even didn't come with a salad, I think the veal was from On-cor frozen patties with cheap noodles and a generic plain sauce (worse than ragu). Service was not great. they just threw all the utensils and napkins in the middle of the table so i had to pass them out to our party of 6, we asked for water and gave us a pitcher of water and a stack of cups in the middle of the table again, I had to pour each cup and distrubute to my party. A few people in my party had pizza and said it was good. My mother in law got spagetti for $8 all it had was the same cheap noodles with poor quality of sauce and that was it, no salad or garlic bread. Poor value and over priced.

Mamma Mia! The best pizza this side of the Atlantic! The staff is so friendly..definitely family-owned and operated. Large choice of delicious pizzas at a fantastic price! Beware! You may become addicted! (Helene and Wilf, Toronto)

Best Ever. Don't miss this if you are in the Falls. Our first time in the falls and this is the greatest place to enjoy dinner.

You have to try the #9 Pizza on the menu, then you add cheese and pepperoni. I guarantee you will never order a different pizza again! Unbelievable.
I have been to this establishment more times than I can count, and I have never, also confident I never will, have a bad experience. The food is fantastic, the service is great and the Mascia family a truly genuine people.

ricota stuffed ravioli and PIZZA!!!
