"The homemade foods are made with love and thoughts of Sicily and Abbruzzo, Italy," Chef Antonio Ristorante writes in the About section on Facebook. "Our restaurant continues the Italian tradition we grew up with of uniting the family for a scrumptious meal and you’re invited! So bring your friends and loved ones to explore the tastes, sights, and sounds of Chef Antonio Restaurant!"
