Amazing seafood spread. Highly recommended for all seafood lovers. On the right is the smaller platter for 1 and on the left is the platter for 2. It comes with shrimp, tiger shrimp, mussels, clams, lobster, snow crab legs, octopus, and scallops. All beautifully paired with pine nut rice and a great selection of Portuguese wines. Nice and cozy restaurant. Family owned and operated by great people.
The best Portuguese food in town .Paellas to die for and the service awesome. Thanks Antonios we had a great afternoon reunion with the Staff from OR-SJEH
Wow. We are 40 minutes from this fantastic place, which while nothing special as far as decor or atmosphere, has the best branzino and grilled Octopus we have ever tasted!
Great place for good Portuguese food if you are lucky ask what they make for them (is three dish just for them) but like I said if you are lucky ask them if they can share with you.Service is great and professional food is fresh and tasteful drink are ok but they will work with you on special ones.
Food was good but the service was terrible. A dinner without desert almost took 4 hours… all the wait staff moves very slowly drinks took 35min to come. We sat at table for 20min without menus. We should have left but figured to give some grace and give them a chance.
The food was very good. I enjoyed the Portugese wine. The service was great and the place had a cute atmosphere. I wish the restaurant was more dimly lit. For appetizers we had the baked clams and a sausage in sauce. Both good. The sausage was a little salty. Then with dinner you get rice, salad and homemade chips. We split the steamed seafood with green sauce. It was very good. We used the 10% off of Yelp but we got the discount after the tax was added onto the original cost, which means we got less off the meal than we expected.
Excellent authentic Portuguese food. Great option for those looking for a fresh take on Mediterranean menus. Our regular order is their perfectly grilled roast chicken and excellent shrimp appetizers. Our favorite place in Oceanside/Long Beach and when we order take out they place the order in our trunk for contact less pick up - highly recommend.
The BEST chicken. Bar none. Their full dinner comes with salad, but the shrimp with green sauce appetizer is yummy & worth adding too. Chicken can be made to order, but we love that its not too salty. Just the right touch of seasoning. Also comes with yellow rice & chips -- which I also love is plain enough for you to sauce or season on your own. Or not - which is my choice. We love the food here, but always so full -- never have room for dessert :)
This place has everything you want in regard to service and quality. We made reservations. Room was a bit cold and they turned up the heat with no problem. We ordered paella for two; it comes with a salad. This is hands down the best paella I have ever had in my whole life. The lobster, shrimp, mussel, clams, squid etc. all were cooked to perfection; each so tender and moist. Nothing over cooked, nothing under cooked. Flavor of fresh seafood rang delicately through each bite. The rice also perfect; saffron, cilantro, onion, peppers seasoning. All this and the service was impeccable.There were kids portion items on the menu. There were also all you can eat offerings too. Alcohol is offered.
We arrived for a early dinner. After a meeting we had locally. I was watching the room fill up very fast and thought to myself how are they going to handle all these people coming in.They did just fine the service was great.Paella for two was delicious. Food was very good. Will come back for more.
The food was superb, staff very friendly
Seafood for 2, chicken for 2, a half pitcher of red sangria, and a half pitcher of white sangria was so perfect for the five of us. Truly a delightful meal 😉
This is one of my favorite restaurants!! The food is absolutely AMAZING. You really get that classic, home-cooked feel from it. Everything is reasonably priced too. We have gone again and again. If you haven’t been, you simply must try it
This place is very disappointing. We ordered what they call “grilled pork chops”, steamed veggies and potatoes, our veggies and potatoes were cold and the pork chops weren’t grilled, they were really hard. They never came back to check if we were ok with the food and drinks meanwhile we had empty cups. The room temperature wasn’t comfortable bc it was really cold with no heat. There’s nothing authentic Portuguese, unfortunately we don’t want to go back.
The food was amazing, juicy, flavorful and cooked to perfection. An absolute do not miss! Weekends you should make a reservation! Menu has choices for everyone, and enjoy the sangria and flan! We used to go to Bellmore but wasnt happy with the side food there. New favorite place, the use of seasonings is perfect.
Been coming here for years. The food though not gourmet is excellent . I particularly enjoy the Octopus. To the cheapskates who complain about portion size I might recommend Boston Market!!!
I meet with friends this lovely place from time to time! This is my favorite place to to have a good dinner. I visit this place many times. The meals are just great, the workers are helpful and the charge is decent. I like being in this restaurant over a tasty meal.
First time here. Dont know why we havent done this sooner! Dont be put off by the ambiance if you wind up in the back room.. Mixed BBQ/Rodizio for two was delicious! Perfect for a couple of carnivores! And the seafood platter for two that was served at the next table would make Neptune himself salivate. Not to mention the cookies and cream dessert which was a surprising treat!
It used to be 4-5 stars, but lately the chickens seem smaller and have less meat on them and the sides like the rice, dont even fill the container. Taste is still good.
Was looking for authentic Portuguese food. Didnt get it. No flavor to the steak I ordered. Took 13 minutes just for waitress to ask us for drink orders so they definitely need more staff. Rice was good and so was the free bread but other then that was not happy with experience there
We love coming here !! The seafood is always fresh and tastes amazing! I highly recommend the Sangria as well. The staff is very friendly and we make it a point to come here and eat authentic Portuguese food.
Everything was delicious! The best paella marinera Ive ever had. I love seafood therefore have dined at various ones including Portuguese restaurants and this paella was worth every dime. My husband I also ordered the stuffed shrimp with seafood and the passion fruit sangria.
The food was great and service was just as good. We shared the BBQ for 2 and it was delicious.We went there on a whim and was surprised by the food. Just make sure to make a reservation.
A favorite of ours. We bring the friends, and / or the family. Never a bad meal. Casual, not a fancy place but its clean, friendly, and the food is phenomenal unless youre a vegetarian. Leave them home. A carnivores dream. Ask for Julia, shes a gem.
The food was absolutely wonderful from preparation to presentation and a great value for the price. We especially enjoyed the home made red sangria. Menu is perfect and has something for everyones taste. I highly recommend Antonios for authentic Portuguese food.
Beautiful place and very tasty food , paella is my favorite here . Go with a friend and share!!located in a very busy road , but you come inside and is like you are miles away from the city . Food is delicious.
Pretty much everything you order here is great. However I prefer take-out however because the dining area always seems cramped. Regardless its a great resturant.
Descent. I enjoyed the garlic shrimp. But the portions were on the small Side. The octopus was very disappointing. It was so small and on the rubbery side. The chips were alright too.
My son and i finally we went last week and tried the rodizio all you can eat for $38 and everything was really good ,they also have a promo right now if youre paying cash is 15%off unfortunately i didnt have cash with me. But definitely a place to try
Great food. Always consistent!
I drove 40 min, dinner at Antonio restaurant for first time. My wife was craving for paella, I was so~ disappointed, it was horrible, it was like seafood soup with rice... water level was halfway..... I paid $56 something... I will tell you it not worth visiting.....when you are cooking for someone, you have to cook from your heart!If you are a chef, you must have your pride to show your food to customer!Hope, chef Antinio read this...Will you eat what you cook? Watery paella? If you didnt cook, you should tell your team, start from scratch....As of today, you just lost customer, and reputation.....Im also chef, but if my food is not ready, or something wrong, or check,Never serve!!!! Must double check!!Because you are the owner or CHEF!!
I have been going to this place for years, really good place to hang out and relax. Food is delightful and the staff are very friendly.
Food is excellent! Very attentive staff. Always have a great meal here.
Really amazing food. Not too crowded and great atmosphere. Food is well priced but the rodizio (all you can eat meat) was outrageous.
The food here is delicious. You will never be disappointed. Staff is very attentive. Wonderful place to dine.
Excellent service, delicious food. Ive passed this restaurant for years on Long Beach Road and kept saying I have to try it, Im so glad I finally did!! Ill be back!!
We had a nice dinner, food was good. My son and his girl friend and my husband. Very good seafood!
Great food, service good but foood came out if the kitchen slowly.
Plates filled with good quality and quantity of food!
Hubby and I went last night for dinner. Enjoyed the food. Staff was great. We will go back again with our girls soon.
Chicken was bland dry with no flavor, no salt on potato chips, floor so greasy I practically slid back to my seat on the way back from the bathroom, “well-done” steak was blood red. Don’t go here.
I loved my Paelah Valenciana, BBB chicken is always good as well as their Bronzino and grilled Octopuss. Will return
Loved the environment and food was like eating at home.
The food was beyond excellent but the temperture in the resturaunt was cold !!
Excellent rotisserie chicken
The food was delicious and the service was very good. Whether you like seafood or meat, you wont be disappointed.
I ordered fish, which was bland and overcooked, but I hear their roasted meats are very good, and come served on a sword like thing. The portions are very large.
The food was delicious. I had the steak and shrimp in brown sauce. The lava cake was rich.
Looking for fresh seafood or good grilled chicken with a good sangria....This is the place.I ve been there are few times I love the food.
First time in.i had a steak sandwich very good the steak was cooked just right and ready it was really meal chip and all
The staff here is attentive and nice. The food here was very fresh and the service is fast. The ambiance was spot on.
Great chicken at an unbelievable price. Little atmosphere, but great service and a terrific place to grab dinner.
I asked for chicken Parma..the chicken was like rubber..n pasta was dry no sauce..I wouldnt recommend this place to anyone...the service was terrible...
Great food and great people. Service can be scattered at times, but the food is always fantastic.
Great service and food

Delicious food! I wish I leave closer so I can go more often, can’t wait to go back to this place!

Good food, but our family started getting ignored as soon as they got busy.
Great local place. Inexpensive, awesome value for food you get.
Great family style food. The seafood platter and meat platter are a must.

2022-01-01What it lacks in ambiance it makes up in service, value and quality. Their meat and seafood are very good. The sangria is potent.The service was professional and attentive. It’s a medium-sized humble operation that really knows how to push out food. Its unassuming feel is a good match for the unpretentious neighborhood: a quiet commercial section of Long Beach rd, next door to a Nicolock paving distributor.Just so you don’t think I’m a shill, I willmark them down for two items: the shrimp had a hint of iodine bloom. The ambiance and decor are 2 star (43” tv in the dining room!)Back to the positive: they have a good variety of Italian to supplement the Iberian. They also have a decent kid’s menu.We will be back.

2022-03-22We were a party of 20 people gathering for dinner and chose Antonio’s in Oceanside based on reviews. The seating was prearranged and comfortable. The food was absolutely delicious. All 20 meals came out at one time and were piping hot. The service was excellent and very professional. The staff at Antonio’s could not have made our large dinner crowd any more comfortable. Thank you to Julia and her crew. We will all be back!!

2022-05-09I ordered from Uber Eats and waited for more than an hour, it was taking too long so I called them and the woman who answered the phone told me that they cancelled my order but it still says in the app that they are preparing my order. I asked why they cancelled and the woman says they are too busy. Thats not a good reason for cancelling an order, Im a costumer too. And I wasted time waiting for them maybe it could have been better if they called me and told me they cancel my order. The woman who answered the phone didnt sound nice too. She didnt even apologize for my inconvenience. This is very upseting.

2020-06-20Wonderful experience with my family and I. The waiters were friendly, the food was amazing. I had the Branzino and my mother had the salmon. We enjoyed every bite! And even took an order of their bbq home for the rest of the family lol. For the first time here, I can already say we will definitely be back again!

2021-02-13A great place to celebrate a birthday. My first time i went there was to celebrate my moms birthday (in march 2018) and one year later I decided to celebrate my birthday with my family here because I enjoyed the food and the atmosphere. Then this year, I was there to celebrate 🍾 my sisters birthday and as usual the atmosphere and food were still on point.

2018-09-29Nice quiet, great food consistently. Best shrimps in the world here. Theyre in a spicy cognac sauce - definitely get them. They also have fantastic portugués desserts. I forgot the name but its like whipped cream with Graham crackers. The Octopus dish is also really good and hard to find around here. The rotisserie chicken is delicious of course. The portuguese have perfected that flavor.

2019-03-04We come here occasionally and really enjoy it. We always get the all you can eat meat where they bring skewers of various steaks, pork , chicken and turkey. The bacon wrapped turkey was exceptional . The short ribs were done to perfection. I found the chicken to be a bit dry. The staff are wonderful and friendly. The home made black beans are yummy and the home made potato chips are great. A definite recommendation.

2022-04-15Their specialty slices are fantastic and the crust is perfect. The chicken bacon ranch slice had a bit too much ranch and not enough chicken, but amazing otherwise!
