Today, I made reservations for celebration of our 3yr wedding anniversary. It was a perfect place for us to have a romantic dinner, excellent ambiance, not overcrowded and the latin music was wonderful. I loved the art and decorations in the restaurant as well. I felt like I was in a small cafe somewhere downtown Spain. The waitress was attentive and very pleasant. She was kind and helpful because we had some questions about the menu. They have this cute couch like a loveseat in the dining area that me and my wife sat in, very romantic. We started with a house salad that was scrumptious. I had mole pablano and my wife had salmon catalana. Both menu choices were delicious. I loved the cilantro rice with my dish. We both had a virgin pineapple mojito. Am sure it’s probably tastes very differently with rum. Needless to say the drink was amazing! The restaurant is right on a bus line so very convenient if you don’t have a car. The owners, The Citlali’s are very hospitable. They gave us a complimentary custard and caramel desert (Flan) including an appetizer because it was our wedding anniversary. Antigua is very much a family restaurant. I would recommend this eatery to anyone, especially if you love Latin cuisine and are looking for a romantic quiet date night spot. I am planning to go back again on a date night.

First and definitely will not be the last time visiting Antigua! Environment was great as soon as you walked through the door, service was 10/10, apps, food & drinks to die for even their bread with that little green salsa soo good! Please come here if you haven’t you will certainly not regret it.

This was my 2nd visit to this place. Absolutely love it. Great drinks, delicious food, and really great friendly service. I highly recommend their Salty air margarita and the walnut tacos pictured in this review.

Lovely little family owned restaurant in West Allis that deserves more love! Every dish I had was delicious and highlighted creative, vibrant takes on classic dishes. I loved the sundried tomato and pumpkin seed guacamole and the cauliflower walnut tacos in particular. Their paella also looked really good - I'll plan to order it the next time I come back with a bigger group. Despite how it may appear online, they have tons of vegetarian options, with even a separate menu just for vegetarians. They also have tons of food and drink specials throughout the week, including Sangria Sunday and Wine Wednesdays. Prices were very reasonable and my server was very friendly. I look forward to coming back!

FLAVOR TOWN!! We ordered the Cocas De Zetas Con Chorizo and ceviche as appetizer. The flatbread was a bit greasy but we didn’t mind, so cheesy and flavorful. Ceviche was marinated so well, amazing with the fresh tortilla chips. Our entrees was the Camarones Antigua and Cochinita Pibil. I have tried a lot of Cochinita, and this was by far the best. I just wish there was more tortillas with it. The camarone antigua was fantastic as well, the chipotle sauce really pieced the entire dish together wonderfully. The black gold margarita is a must. The place is clean and looks pretty inside, atmosphere gives off the vibe of being at a tias house, very homey.

We are from the Chicago area and needed to locate a food vendor to cater our wedding reception. We had our menu tasting and were immediately impressed with the variety of menu options as well as the quality of the items! Working with Citlali and her team was such a positive experience from start to finish! From our initial meeting, she was incredibly responsive, helpful, and made the entire planning process feel easy and stress-free. On our wedding day, everything went smoothly—delicious food, excellent service, and such a friendly team. Citlali’s attention to detail and communication really helped put us at ease, and we’re so grateful to have had her as part of our celebration. Highly recommend!

Highly recommend the Thursday special, 4 tapas for 30. Perfect to share with another person. The paella takes a little longer to cook, since they make it fresh, and is more than enough for two people. House margaritas are tasty, we tried the passion fruit and guava ones.

We ordered a lot and nothing was left by the end because we couldn't stop eating, it was that good. Fish Tacos on Fridays, but there's great dishes to eat here everyday! Stop in, enjoy the atmosphere and company, relax and enjoy the delicious food. Doesn't get much better than that!
