The service is amazing!! We were guided through the menu on what's most popular and we were recommended great items. I had the fried catfish, my husband had the chicken parm, and we shared the fried mozzarella and spinach dip. Everything was AMAZING. This is the best catfish I've had in years. Please support this business! When we went in, it was empty but that didn't mean the service or food was bad. I'm so shocked that this place wasn't full to the brim with people waiting. The owner was kind and made sure we had a great first experience. Please stop in here and enjoy yourself!!

We came in to try Anton's based on stellar reviews and recommendations. It feels very much like you are going to dine at the home of a family member. We were greeted right away by Anton, and he had a great personality. The service was personable throughout. We did have to wait and finally ask for our check, but this was no problem since we were talking with friends. The food was very good. We were encouraged to order different things so we could sample from one another's plate. This is how our group usually dines, so we ordered four different entrees (chicken parm, olive chicken, veggie platter and chicken and shrimp). All were very good because all were very similar. They all had the same sauce and were all served over pasta or rice, so there really wasn't much variety at all in what we ordered. I found this to be interesting. Maybe we could have tried a burger or sandwich, but we were going for the house specialties. The restaurant was spacious and clean with numerous booths and a bar in the center of the restaurant. One thing I thought was curious, is that Anton told us he was going to bring us an appetizer that he thought we would love. He said if we didn't like it, he wouldn't charge for it. I was a little surprised to see that we were charged for it (it was good) since we didn't actually order it. And I saw that he took it to all of the other tables, so I guess this is a common technique here. I would definitely come here again and recommend it to others. You do feel like you are supporting a small business which is always nice.

Anton's is such a great place and very much an "experience." My wife, daughter and I stopped in for lunch after seeing the great reviews online. Anton took care of us and prepared delicious food. My daughter had the chicken parm and my wife the onion burger. Anton wouldn't let me order the same as them, so he told me he would bring me something delicious. He did. I don't even know what it was, and it had green olives. I don't even like olives, but I ate every bite of it! Please visit this place (with an open mind ) and spread the word. Few people are as passionate about both food and your experience as Anton. We will definitely go back the next time we visit our daughter.

What a great experience and delicious food! Anton waited on us and made us feel like we were part of the family. I had the chicken parm and it was wonderful! My husband had the chicken and shrimp. He thoroughly enjoyed it! We also ordered the tiramisu which was yummy and brought home a piece of cheesecake to share the following night. It was incredible even the next night! Can't wait to go back and have the Green Olive, and more cheesecake!

Anton's craft kitchen is a hidden gem! Not only is the food delicious the service is spectacular. Three of us went in for lunch greeted by Anton and his awesome personality. We started with Spinach & Eggplant dip with garlic flatbread - delicious! I have the pork schnitzel, hand cut pork tenderloin, breaded and pan pan fried to a crispy tender golden brown. The side was a delicious flavorful rice topped with a creamy sauce. pictures. My friends had the chicken fettuccine also outstanding and flavorful. ample seating, great atmosphere. Excellent customer service!

Anton offers delicious food and fabulous personal service. We enjoyed the relaxing atmosphere. On our first visit we ordered catfish, chicken parm and the spinach and eggplant dip appetizer. Excellent. We will be back again and again. Vegan choices also allow us to dine out with family members who don't eat dairy products.

We stopped by Anton's Craft Kitchen last minute and so glad we did. Our server, (I wonder if it was Anton himself) had his own fun personality to add to the experience. He was quick, prompt, informative and very kind. He offered to get us an appetizer, the Eggplant dip, I love eggplant but my husband does not, and my husband actually loved it! We ordered the Roses Chicken and Shrimp and the Chicken Parmesan, it is more of a schnitzel so we really loved the light crisp breading. It also came with a fresh salad that even my young kids enjoyed. You can see and feel the love and effort that goes into every customer that comes in the door and it's so refreshing.

We walked to Anton's from our hotel, for a quick dinner and a drink on our last night in OKC. The reviews look great, the food look great... Seemed like the perfect place. When I walked in the place was empty there was one guy at the bar, so we sat at the bar. Couple of minutes after we sat down. It was pretty obvious that Anton was the bartender and the server. He told us he would bring us an appetizer, but we couldn't ask what it was just trust him. We did. And I like three minutes we had a basket of warm pita bread and a plate with a dip of some sorts. He then explained it was roasted eggplant with a lot of other greatness. It was delicious! Next, we asked him if we should get the burger? Or the steak or the catfish. He suggested we come back next time for the best steak and the best burger will ever eat. But he would provide us with the catfish and another surprise dish. Two of us agreed to share both and obviously trust the chef. The catfish came with whipped potatoes and a delicious sauce. It was fantastic the other dish I'm not even sure it was on the menu was creamy rice with a spicy sauce with shrimp and chicken. Quantity wasn't overwhelming, but it was sufficient for our meal. We talked to Anton since it was not busy... We couldn't believe the place was so empty. But we're sort of in a highway zone. Reliant upon people who stay in hotels and what not. He is not a chain! He is the one man band operation who makes craft food from scratch, with passion , and his whole heart. He shared a bit of his story that he came to Oklahoma to be a real estate investor, but his wife and himself couldn't stand the food options and he knew he could do better. So he bought a building of a restaurant. The lettuce in a bunch of restaurants that he's owned over the years. He's a kind soul, who cares about food, and people. If you are within driving distance, put this place on your to do list when you come to Oklahoma City. Just a few minutes north east of downtown, right off the highway. Trust Anton he'll take care of you. PS. Apologies for no pictures, the food came out so quick and was so good that I took none.

We stopped at Anton's for lunch, our first time there, and we were pleasantly surprised. The dining room was open and spacious, with tables nicely spaced apart. We were greeted at the door by a very welcoming gentleman, (Anton?) who joked with us while showing us to our table. He remained professional but immediately put us at ease. After seating us, he asked if it was okay to surprise us with an appetizer and said, "If you don't like it, you don't pay." We agreed and were very happy with the Spinach & Eggplant Dip! I don't think we left even a drop on the plate--it's a must-try. When taking our order, we asked about bread or buns, and he laughed, saying, "No bread, you already have bread on the table, (The flatbread), I mix up the salad for you; you'll like it!" We laughed and agreed. He wasn't pushy--in fact, I found him charming and funny. The salad was mixed fresh at our table in a large bowl with his "own dressing," and it was delicious! The entrees were excellent--very flavorful and served HOT. We had the "Crispy Chicken Sandwich," "Rose's Chicken and Shrimp," and "Chicken Parmesan." This meal was one of the rare times we all cleaned our plates. Anton's is a lovely combination of good food, personality, and comfort. We'll definitely be going back!

Anton's is not your run of the mill restaurant. It's definitely a unique experience. And we didn't even meet Anton! We were greeted by a young, friendly hostess who ended up being our server as well. She asked if we had ever been there before, and when we said no, she said we were in for a treat. The restaurant is well maintained with a modern interior, center bar area and TVs for sports viewing. The best word I can use to politely describe this place is "presumptuous". We were given the spinach and eggplant dip appetizer without ordering it. We NEVER order appetizers so this was a little weird, especially when we were told we didn't have to pay for it if we didn't like it. Hubs enjoyed it, but it was just okay to me. The presentation could be better. I wouldn't put a dip on a plate. I didn't take a photo for that reason. Hubs got the ribeye steak with garlic butter sauce and loved every bit of it. He is a strict keto eater so he did not have any veggie option but to get "double salad". He ate the whole bowl. I thought it tasted like Olive Garden salad (which isn't a bad thing, in my opinion). Our server said it was their house made dressing. Another presumption is spice level. I cannot even have red pepper flakes on any food. It would've been nice to ask me first. Maybe because we went on a night where Anton wasn't out greeting guests, I was surprised to see it on my Lemon Garlic Chicken with mashed potatoes. Other than the spice, it was a little "one note" to me. This is more of a sauce, a lot of it. I used the buttered flat bread to finish all of my food. We do want to try this place again, but I'm personally hesitant that asking for simple requests would not go over well. Idk, we'll see. They obviously take a lot of pride in the food that they make. As others have mentioned, this place is definitely not for everyone.
