Antico - Sunderland

Have visited this place before , but bit disappointed on this occasion. It was an anniversary meal , but they had no salmon , asked if they could do spaghetti bolognase rather than tagliatelle, but they said they did not di spaghetti! Yet when my seafood pasta arrived it was Spaghetti based !!!! The lasagna was very dry , so my wife was a bit disappointed. Also we did not arrive till about 815pm and they actually closed at 9pm so if felt very rushed with meals being served quickly. It's a shame because we have had good meals and service here before , but having used another Italian in Seaham last night , that was 100% better and more reasonably priced, so think the , Sambuca Seaham gets our vote in future.

Tuesday .We were walk ins no booking. The restaurant had quite a few covers and only 2 staff. We were greeted and taken to a table, with apologies for the wait which to be fair was only minutes. Lovely atmosphere and table setting, menu was easy to navigate with ample choice ,as was the drinks menu. We just had main courses, which were fabulous, a pizza ,and a pasta dish. Pizza was one of the best I've had in a while, the pasta dish was tasty, and not overcooked, with a nice sauce. Drinks were served in a timely manner,and both staff members were polite. Yes I'm going back, the pricing, service and food were all great.

Antico was recommended by friend`s, and we were glad they did. A Lovely restaurant with top class friendly service and wonderful food. Well worth a visit.
