"Six of us had dinner Saturday night and it was fabulous. Table requested was ready. Service was fantastic...ask your server for wine suggestions; her recommendation was terrific and very reasonably priced. We all got different entrees and everyone raved. They were very busy as it was marathon weekend but we never felt rushed. We will be back."

"A well-prepared selection of rustic dishes: brick-oven pizzas, roasted vegetables, entrees in terra cotta pots, and good bread and olives. Good place for a date and a bottle of red."

"Antico Forno gets the nod for incorporating a red-sauce joint's most salient features - cozy vibe, hearty portions - into an otherwise upscale big picture. The piatti con rigatoni, in particular, are as good as you'll find anywhere in town, at any price."

"My husband and I stumbled across your restaurant 6 years ago when we were walking through Boston and had a wonderful meal. It was so memorable that when we came back to Boston, we decided to try and find you again. Much to our delight, not only did we find you again, the food was as excellent as I remember. Thank you"

- I would like to let you know that I have had another fabulous dining experience at your establishment. I went there last year for the first time and it was so packed that we ate at the bar. I was glad because I liked talking with the bartender and took her recommendations for my food order. I believe her name is Sarah. I went back to visit my brother again last week and she was there. We decided to sit at the bar again and eat. She was very busy and worked very hard and fast. She even remembered us from the year before. She is such a joy to talk to and is always smiling. The food there is excellent and I have recommended it to a lot of my clients. I will be back in a few weeks and I look forward dining in your restaurant again.

- We had a wonderful lunch at Antico Forno yesterday...first time visitors. I just wanted to tell you everything was great...especially the mussels... We come from Maine where we know our mussels! Everything...the pizza, the bread, the pasta, the service, the whole experience was a 10. Thank you!

-Your website is presented very well. It is informative and interesting. Your food looks amazing. I think your menu caters to all diets. Got your link from an article about Boston's best pizza and a short, favorable review by Devra First, Boston Globe.com I live in the Hudson Valley of NY State. Hope to eat at the restaurant some day.

-I've been going to the North End for years and always love trying new places since they are all so good... but I think the other restaurants have met their champ. I had one of the most memorable meals and even though I was just there 4 days ago, I'm taking my husband tomorrow night. I have definitely found "my new spot" to dine. Loved the food, loved the service (Dana) was friendly and informative. When we met the owner (Carla) she treated you like family. The atmosphere is amazing - loved the brick and the lighting, just a wonderful experience full circle. Thanks!! Jennifer Casey

Sawdust-covered floors, a mural-sized rendition of the Tuscany countryside (painted by a local artist Jack Dunlea) and a blessed statue of St. Rocco tucked into a beehive-shaped, wood-burning brick oven set the stage at the North End's rustic trattoria, Antico Forno. With Their successful 1993 flagship restaurant, Terramia, across the street, Carla Agrippino-Gomes took on a new challenge in 1996 of bringing dishes to Salem Street. Antico Forno - Italian for "old stove" - features brick-oven classics such as roasted chicken in a natural juices with garlic and herbs stuffed under crusted skin; pizza with artichoke hearts, imported Italian porcini mushrooms, and Campania buffalo mozzarella, finished with truffle oil; and linguini with clams, mussels, calamari and shrimp, sauted in a plum tomato sauce and baked in parchment paper. Even the double-domed brick oven was custom-built by a native Napolitan craftsman.
Antico Forno is an inviting neighborhood trattoria that provides a truly authentic Neapolitan experience.

"This is a wonderful, small restaurant with great food. It feels like an Italian trattoria. The house wine is good and the servings generous. The wonderful luncheon choices are the grilled chicken sandwich and the lamb sandwich. The grilled chicken sandwich contains perfectly grilled chicken, roasted red peppers, fresh mozzarella and tomato. The sandwich is large and the bread is also grilled. It comes with a light lemon and oil-dressed salad." read more
