Hi, and thank you for choosing

Antonio’s today!

     It feels like the photo above is late coming, but it’s due to the late “Labor Day” this year. Regardless, here is our annual back to school photo. The first to go this year was Johnny, our youngest. He’ll be carrying on our family legacy at Bryant University. First started by my Uncle Greg, then Uncle John, Myself and; as of 4 months ago, Katherine, our oldest. Tommy has transferred to URI and had the latest start date I know of as they still adhere to the old rule of classes starting the day after Labor Day. Last but not least is our Katherine. She is at home with Lisa and I, but might as well be in school, as she is now in the thick of preparing for her LSAT test.

    Also, this week I celebrate my wedding anniversary with the girl of my dreams. I first met Lisa in 1981 when she was the new salad girl here at Antonio’s, and I was a rather dapper pizza cook. I can honestly say she has been my true-love since that very first day. We dated for almost 7 years before she relocated to Chicago. We kept in touch, but it was like that first time I saw her, when she showed up on my door step, unannounced on Christmas Eve 2001. We never parted again and were wed in September 2002. I can’t believe how fast the past 24 years have flown by, and how full my life is. She makes me so happy, that I’m almost excited to grow old! I love you Lisa!?

     In closing, thank you again for choosing to spend your time and money here at our local restaurant. We consciously try to support our local farms and purveyors and appreciate you supporting us. On behalf of my family at home and here at the restaurant, thank you for being here.

Steven & Co.
