Antica Roma in Wiltshire

can't fult this restaurant. very friendly, very helpful. the food was amazing. it's very clean and tidy.

Me and martin love it here manager staff all welcoming happy polite and clean foods fantastic

Fantastic! Great food, great staff! Highly recommended.

We came here to this restaurant for a family meal and was really impressed with the good service. Friendly staff and quick service. There were lots of options on both the food and wine menu. The food was a British take on Italian dishes. We had the sharing board which was nice, a good selection of cold meats and cheeses. We had pizza to follow which was not quite as good, the base was quite heavy and there was too much cheese on my pizza. The squid was quite rubbery. The steak and the lasagna looked nice and those on our table enjoyed it.

Ten of us came here for dinner while visiting for a family wedding. The food was incredible and the service was amazing, they really looked after us. Thank you for such a lovely evening!

Great food great service. such a shame so far away otherwise would be back soon

Hi, i recommend this restaurant for everyone who like marvellous food, friendly staff, fare price, very good portions

Absolutely Delicious! We were driving through and so glad we decided to stop in. Service was great. I had the Penne con Pollo and it was the best I’ve ever had.

Been to antica roma for many birthdays and meals over the years and it never disappoints ! Very friendly staff, quick to take the order and usually very quick to recieve food as well. My family love the pizzas, omelette and steaks there but everything I've tried has been incredible! 100% recommend to everyone

2nd time we have been here for dinner and can't fault it. food is amazing and cooked perfectly staff are so friendly and helpful reasonably priced. Will definitely be going here again

Please switch your on line booking app off when you go on holiday!!! Booked yesterday for this evening, with confirmation email only to find restaurant is closed for the week. Can recommend the steak at the Lansdown next door though

We’ve traveled over 600 miles from Shetland to see family. We always go here for a meal when we come down to Calne It’s the best Italian restaurant we’ve ever eaten in the food is fantastic The staff are great . So if you’re ever in Calne you must stop and eat there .

We took our two grandsons to this restaurant for pizza night . We all ordered Pizzas my wife was served with the wrong type one of my grandsons aged 7 with an adult size Pizza . In my opinion the quality of the Pizza was very poor with with a half cooked soggy doughy base. I should heave really sent them all back but the restaurant was very busy and we would have had another long wait Add to that the beer I ordered (Peroni) was at room temperature . On the basis of this visit if this restaurant was in Italy (a country I love and have visited many times in the past) they would not be in business for long. I want to support local businesses but will not be returning to this establishment.

Eaten here 2 nights in a row, cannot praise it enough. Calzoni was best I've had in 20 years. Carbonate tonight was amazing

Lovely meal to celebrate a friend's birthday. 9 of us in all, we had pizzas, risottos, lasagnas, plenty of drinks (house red was very quaffable), Panna cotta and gelatos. Excellent food, first class service too.

Had the best Italian meal here. Extremely tasty. Lovely ambience would thoroughly recommend.staff were also very friendly and helpful. Thank you.

Great food people and atmosphere 😁

Went here for a Birthday meal,it was very enjoyable from start to finish,the food was delicious all cooked to perfection in the authentic Italian style.The menu had a lot to choose from with a very wide variety of lovely dishes.All the staff we’re very nice and made you all feel welcome.With a nice friendly relaxed atmosphere,it was very busy as it has become a very popular restaurant in the town of Calne in Wiltshire.will definitely go back to sample some more of this lovey Italian food.I can highly recommend this restaurant,booking is essential..... We visited here again for another Birthday meal on the 07/06/24 again it was first class Italian food with excellent service delivered by the lovely staff....👍

Just had the most amazing meal, and the service was great!

First time ordering from Antica Roma.. and all I can say is wow! Absolutely fantastic staff, very welcoming and accommodating, the restaurant is very well furnished with a warm wood setting throughout.. the food was amazing!! I ordered a vast amount of pizza and pasta and I can say it was thoroughly enjoyed! Thank you to the staff for the warm welcome and the delicious food! I will definitely be back in the near future. If you haven't tried food from Antica Roma yet.. you're missing out on an amazing experience! 👏🙌

I went here with two friends on Monday lunchtime and I can highly recommend this lovely restaurant. The food was excellent along with the service will definitely be going back

Had a great service, fast and officiant. Love the food, can’t wait to go back ! Definitely recommend

Having not visited Antica for a while it was such a pleasant surprise to see the old faces back in charge. Even though we hadn't booked we were greeted warmly and quickly seated. We had the calamari and whitebait starters which were hot and delicious. The chef was happy to make a pizza to our individual needs which was perfectly cooked with those nice crispy stone baked edges, all washed down with a great bottle of red wine. We thoroughly enjoyed our dinner, Vladi and his team made us (Mr & Mrs Valentino :)) very welcome and we will definitely be returning soon. It's great to have a such a high quality restaurant in the town.

Lovely Italian restaurant with seating over 2 floors and plenty of local paid for parking. The welcome was warm staff friendly and attentive throughout our visit. The food quality was very high, portion sizes generous and prices reasonable, especially given the quality. The wine list was also well worth a visit!!

Lovely Italian restaurant. Great service and good quality food. And what a bargain for two course lunch we paid £13.95 !

What a great evening, food, atmosphere and staff were absolutely fantastic, taking the time to interact with our group, all singing Happy Birthday to one of the group. The food was beyond what I expected and was presented very pleasantly and the flavours were really 👌 Would HIGHLY RECOMMEND an evening here. ☆☆☆☆☆

Fabulous menu, staff & atmosphere. Loved the fillet steak, the meals were excellent! Throughly recommended 👌

Amazing gluten free pizza! Home made and safe for coealics please keep making these home made gluten free pizza they mean a lot to people like myself who are coealics and can now enjoy yummy Italian meals without missing out. Thoroughly recommend 😋

Italian atmospher, very good meals, a nice moment

The service here is excellent! The ambience is noisy, very noisy. Vegetables and salad are very good. The pizza, sadly, isn't great. Could really use better dough. I can't comment on the pasta but they looked very nice when they went past. It's just the pizza that lets it down.

Amazing food again, staff very friendly and accommodating regular monthly family night meal. Very reasonably priced.

Excellent meal & atmosphere & service.

Well we have revisited Antica Roma today, for the first time in a while. Unfortunately, a while ago we were disappointed in the standard of food and service, so decided not to go there. We have recently noticed more positive reviews and comments. Particularly about past staff members being there again, and past chefs returning. We received a very hearty welcome from one of the head waiters that we used to see there regularly. Our meal was amazing. They have a new lunch time menu which is excellent value. We are so pleased that this little gem in Calne has returned to its former glory. Thanks to all involved today that made our return well worth it.

Just ordered 3 pizza's to take away. All freshly cooked and just as delicious and authentic as when we enjoy them in the restaurant. The service was prompt, professional and as friendly as always. Looking forward to returning to our local Italian for a family get together when it can re-open.

Went with friends for pre-pub quiz dinner! The welcome, the service and the menu choices all excellent. I had the best prawn risotto ever! Our group of 7 highly recommend this gem in Calne

Simple and delicious Italian food presented beautifully and delivered by friendly and attentive staff. Authentic Italian atmosphere and feel to the restaurant.

Our first visit for a family meal and we had a lovely time. The service was great, the staff friendly and helpful and the food delicious. We only had mains due to time constraints but everything arrived together. Would definitely go there again!

Food was average, nothing unique but the service and the wine was great

I love this place. Amazing food, excellent staff.

I read on facebook earlier this week the Antica Roma original owners and kitchen staff were back. So we went back as soon as we could, i.e. last night. The entire experience (the food, the staff and service, the venue, the atmosphere) was absolutely first class!!! Thank you Antica Roma so much. We came away so so happy to know this wonderful little gem of a place to eat has returned to Calne once again.

Fantastic food and service. Our second visit and we'll be back again. We went midweek, sometimes this means slower service, but absolutely not the case here. Attentive staff and quick service. The restaurant is set out so you don't feel you are crammed in, lovely atmosphere and not too loud. Which is great as we have an autistic child, it must be good as he wants to go back again!

Delicious meal with my parents, delicious and succulent prawns starter followed by chicken mains. Thoroughly enjoyed the meal/evening, would definitely recommend!!

Loved it made my day when staff sang happy birthday to me when they found out food was lovely

First visit, great service and food

Would recommend a visit, the atmosphere was great. Food was exceptionally nice. Service was really good.

A superb birthday dinner for my wife with the family. The food was excellent and very tasty. We particularly enjoyed the sharing platter starters. Considering there was seven of us the service was efficient, not rushed and friendly.

Amazing staff, service, food and atmosphere, can't praise it enough.

Party of 10 for my 70th Birthday. Every thing was amazing, could not fault the staff and service, food delicious and reasonable priced and atmosphere great. Thank you for rounding off a Great Day.

So friendly and accommodating; great service and the food was delicious. We had the Antipasta Misto as a sharing starter; followed by Risotto de Mare for me and my wife had Cozze (fresh mussels) from the starter menu as a main dish. It was all amazing.

Food was good, our waitress Maria absolutely made our evening, she was really fab. Loved the environment there as well, everyone was really friendly

Last night I booked a table for 4 people. The restaurant was very busy and had a very good vibe inside. One of the waiter paulino was very helpful and was very quick to take our orders. The food was delicious and it was made very quickly. Would highly 100% recommend

Paulino and Valentino were excellent. The service here is beyond 5 stars. I didn’t know what to expect with the food but I was so pleased with my meal I ate the whole lot and ordered dessert! They were so attentive with drink refills and there was no delay at any point. The restaurant itself is very relaxing and beautiful and we had an amazing experience. Would 100% recommend. Could not find any fault with this establishment.

Lovely Atmosphere with great ambiance Great Food with helpful staff Reasonable prices good selection of wine and food We all had a lovely time catching up with my son

We were there for the first time today and are very pleased with them. Friendly staff with great service helped my a little naughty kids beautifully and my wife and I enjoyed their food. Proper Italian food freshly made and so yummy. We are looking forward to go there soon again!

Great all round Italian restaurant

Daughter took us here whilst we were visiting her. Great food, lovely wait staff and a good time was had by all

I cannot recommend Antica Roma highly enough! This is my third time of visiting here (regrettably over a fairly long period) but they are consistent in every way. Service is excellent, not too quick and not too slow, very friendly and welcoming. The menu is excellent with something for everyone, cooked to perfection and competitively priced. The restaurant itself has a great atmosphere - very relaxing, the music is at just the right level so you can easily have a conversation without being distracted! The decor is traditional and tasteful. A truly lovely restaurant, would return here in an instant. Thank you Antica Roma! 😊👍

The food was delicious and we had service with a smile, she was also very patient with us.

Great restaurant. Good food and very friendly service. Ours was a last minute thing, but the whole experience could not have been better.

Nice, friendly place with good Italian food.

The start of our experience was seeing one of the servers outside smoking and then blowing his nose and wiping it down his trousers, he was not one of the chefs so we still ventured in. We ordered a starter to share which was supposed to be bruschetta bread topped with a melted Italian cheese, tomatoes and balsamic vinegar, it was bland, tasted like cheap cream cheese, had one half of sliced cherry tomato on each slice, it was barely toasted and there was no balsamic vinegar to be seen. We did not eat all of this and fed back that it was tasteless and bland, they did offer to replace but we declined and waited for our mains. Whilst waiting we heard another customer calling the waiter after discovering plastic in her meal, the young and clearly inexperienced waitress took it away after offering to replace and returned a few minutes later stating that she had spoken with the chef who said ‘we don’t have that type of plastic in our kitchen’ this shocked us and did not fill us with much hope about our mains yet to be served. Eventually our main meals arrived but it was nothing like it was described on the menu, spicy Italian sausage was more like a chopped up hot dog, pasta was burnt where it had clearly been under a grill for too long to melt the cheese and the general taste was tangy and not right. We quickly called an end to our evening returning the main dish and advising that we would not be paying for the starter or my main, we asked for my partners pizza to be boxed up and agreed to share it later as we had seen enough. There was no argument over not paying which indicated that they were not at all surprised. Avoid not a good experience

First time there and sadly the last. I was so cold I had to wrap my coat around my legs the whole time. My starter was lovely but my main was awful sooo salty I couldn’t eat it. Very disappointed.

Lovely family celebration here tonight, lovely food

Always excellent food and service

Authentic look and feel of a typical central Italian restaurant, tasteful decor, polite friendly staff, comfortable furniture, quick efficient service, a good cross selection on the menu, food is well prepared and presented, quite tasteful and tasty. Wine selection isn't too bad, nothing too strong to overpower the food, just the usual suspects. Overall a very pleasant experience, not the run of the mill, microwaved, mass produced produce but a genuinely thoughtful, well delivered dining experience. Returned with friends and family at different times of the day and midweek as opposed to the weekend and can say that the food and service remains consistently good. Very happy to return (if my waistline allows) and happy to recommend as a good place for a pleasant meal whether as a family or a party

An amazing place being there with my family on Saturday evening. The restaurant was so busy food was lovely we all had different dishes and the service was nice and quick. I will definitely recommend it to everybody stuff, was so friendly Can’t wait to go back again⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Beautiful decor, very comfortable, friendly staff, DELICIOUS food 😍 worth every penny

The place is interesting, well located and decorated. The staff was very friendly and the service was as expected. The food is good, high quality. I was expecting more Italian flavors in my dish. Nevertheless the tasty was good. Drink options available are rich. If you are nearby, suggest to have your own experience at this place, worth it.

Always have a lovely meal here and great service. 👍 defo recommended.

Great food, with plenty of choice. Will definitely be back.

Staff were polite when we entered but as we were seated they seemed to be too busy to even serve us water. We waited around 15 minutes before given plates and a drink. Sorry, but the lasagna was one of the worst I’ve had—it was bland and the sauce was too watery. The chef special pizza was incredibly average…. Cubes of ham were far too large and the pizza lacked any depth of flavor.

Myself and my mother were in Calne for a family occasion for two nights and were looking for somewhere to eat on our first night quite late in the evening. This lovely restaurant was just next door to where we were staying and we were made to feel very welcome despite it being quite late. We enjoyed it so much we booked a table for the following evening as well. The staff were friendly and the service wonderful. The food was authentic, fresh and served beautifully. Proper Italian food and service, and the restaurant is also well decorated, clean and inviting. We will definitely be back the next time we are visiting Calne.

Dropped in for an inpromptu lunch, the food was authentic & delicious. The service was friendly and engaging without being intrusive. As always a great dining experience and by far our favourite place to go!

We had a lovely dinner here with friends. Great food but not too many vegetarian mains options but we had Four Cheese Pizza and Spinach & Ricotta Cannelloni and both dishes were lovely and plentiful. Our friend has ‘Pollo Dolce Latte’ and she said ‘it was excellent and very tasty’. Attentive service and a buzz with lots of laughs and fun, quite busy so be sure to book, we will come back very soon. Thank you. Lyndon & Peter.

Very delicious food and friendly staff. I definitely recommend Antica Roma!

Completely shocking experience for my mum’s birthday today , I went in their previous to give them 2 balloons , confetti, which I provided and a birthday cake and a few cupcake. When i you arrived at the table? An hour later, there was one...

We’ve visited several times now and the food is always amazing. The creamy mushroom starter is absolutely amazing and the pizzas are delicious (and huge). Staff are always helpful. Can’t fault it.

Since the management and staff have recently changed, it seems this once lovely restaurant has gone massively downhill. We waited over ten minutes for our table (I understand this happens as I work in hospitality). Our order was then taken by a gentleman with a...

I've lived in Calne for a long time and remember when this used to be the HSBC bank - what a change! For all those who are unsure, this is a proper bonafide family run Italian restaurant. Great food, great atmosphere, tastefully decorated. We visited for the first time on a Tuesday night and it was packed! The only thing thing that let them down was a slightly slower service due to the number of covers. Great for families, couples and groups. We'll definitely be back!

Excellent food, excellent service. I wrote this review in June 2022. That's the reason we're back again in 2023.

This place has a lovely atmosphere, the staff are brilliant and the food was absolutely delicious! Thoroughly enjoyed eating here!

Fantastic Italian food at reasonable prices. Kids also loved it.

Good food drink and surroundings. Lovely pizzas and the seafood pasta was amazing. Drinks not too pricey - staff friendly and very efficient,

We’ve been going to Antica for years, though not been since about this time last year. We have been with friends, family and as a couple and always have a good time in a great friendly atmosphere, with courteous, helpful and fun staff and tasty...

I had the pleasure of eating at this friendly restaurant while on a business trip. The food, service and ambience were all excellent. The high scores on Google are well-deserved.

Delicious, authentic home cooking. Brilliant and attentive service. A quiet atmosphere with some low volume Italian pop music which really sets the tone.

Great works do, place very busy but great food

Staff are lovely food is great and always lovely to take family! Everyone we have taken has enjoyed!

We stopped in Calne to see if we could find anything for dinner. This looked like a good bet and it certainly was! The food was fabulous and the staff were friendly. The meals arrived very quickly and the atmosphere was lovely.

Great autentic italian food with great autentic service! Family feel resturant, highly redommend the risotto and.. all the food!

Excellent food. Superb service. Really great place to eat.

Lovely restaurant. Great service and food

Excellent dinner, food very tasty. Service great too.

Right next to the Lansdowne Strand, really died my staff and food you would expect at an Italian, all really nice quality. Really enjoyed it.

Outstanding food and excellent customer service with a lovely vibe inside the restaurant. Takeaway is superb too.

Wonderful food and very friendly staff.

1at time in a Italian restaurant had lovely time with friends friendly staff,amazing food worth going,
