A slice of pizza and a drink for under $5 is a bargain! Especially when the pizza tastes good πŸ•πŸ‘. Dont forget the Tapatio hot sauceπŸ”₯. Located in Beautiful Downtown Riverside on Main St. just two doors down from The Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf.

Honestly, this pizza was terrible. I don’t know why this place has good reviews. I ordered a cheese pizza and it tasted like I bought a Celeste pizza from the frozen food aisle. WOULD NOT RECOMMENDED

I was surprised how much my family enjoyed the pizza and pasta here. This is a great place to have lunch. The service was great and the restaurant was fresh and clean. If you want a quick and delicious meal, I highly recommend this restaurant! The staff was really fantastic, too. Its highly recommended!

Pretty good pizza, good selection and prices! You can order by the slice and they have really good lunch deals for spaghetti and lasagna. The salads are so good too if youre gluten-free, never been disappointed. My favorite is their pineapple pizza, I get it every time!!Good ice cream! I had black cherry today.Quick, kind service.I feel like theres always something new on the menu.

The service is terrible and really the pizza is nothing special its flavorless with cheap ingredients. The pizza at Costco tastes better.The went one night to pick up pizza for A basketball teamIt was sitting for over 10 minutes until they realized it was done and I was waiting after paying.. the person saying he was a manager was unapologetic and rude.I cannot recommend this place.

The lady who may have been the owner, was very pleasant and seemed to be genuinely concerned about my satisfaction.The pizza was quite good and reasonably priced (for California). Both the pizza and the antipasto salad were appealing presented. I was suddenly starving when I saw them coming to the table!The only negative is the restrooms which are not located within the restaurant premises. Theyre in a public area of the building and they are horrible. Id eat here again, but wash my hands at the hotel first.

Love this place their thin crust is so good !! My wife and I always get a thin meat lovers with extra cheese light on the sauce well done that way you dont get a flop. Now I live on the next town over about a thirty minute drive on my way home from work I usually pick it up cheese is good toppings are just right ham, sausage, pepperoni this is the only time I get it if I have it delivery its too cold by the time I get home. Its really good if you eat while walking around the downtown area. Would suggest if you are sight seeing around there and want pizza this is the place to eat.

Really, really yummy thin crust pizza! I kept it simple and just got cheese with mushrooms and am completely satisfied. I come here to Riverside often on work trips and will most certainly grab one from here again

Pizza has no taste… I don’t really know how to explain other than that, but it’s not very good at all. The layer of cheese was extremely thin which I think contributed to the lack of flavor

Review β„–11

Meh. Pizza is bland and the ratio of crust to cheese/meat is too much dough not enough pizza. I asked for a refill of my ice tea, they wanted a quarter. No thanks, this is America - land of the infinite refill.We ordered aka carte lasagna, which never arrived in spite of multiple assurances it was β€œcoming right out”. They did refund and when it came out packed it to go.On the plus side the staff were friendly and sitting outside was nice.Amidst a sea of other options in this downtown pedestrian area, I’d call this must miss.

Listed as Margherita Pizza, really it was a pile of raw tomato’s with cheese on top. It was a tomato salad pizza. Call if that and don’t call it what it is not. It was a dripping mess.

Review β„–14

Quickly becoming my favorite pizza spot. The crust is delicious and I havent gotten a single soggy pizza yet. We always finish a pie at home, never toss a single piece away. It compliments my soda perfectly. Pairs well with my Netflix binging. And love to mention, the owner is something special and sweet.

I have searched high and low to find the perfect pizza. I like quality pizza. Simple and honest and well-balanced. Antonious is the perfect dough/sauce/cheese. A magic blend for all the true pizza connoisseurs.They also have pizza by-the-slice ready at all times. Nowhere has that these days. This is a special place.

Their pizza sauce is so good. Their shake on parmesan cheese is extra good for some reason. Pepperoni was super yummy. Excellent crust. Basically a really good pizza...better than a major chain company and same affordable price.

This small cafΓ© on the Main Street plaza offers a variety of pizzas, wraps, sandwiches and monthly specials. Our favorite pizza is the fiesta pizza where we can choose our 7 toppings. We like the monthly specials as well... ranging from turkey club to pulled pork sandwiches.

I have been coming to this pizza place for years! Every time someone visits me I take them here to try the pizza. Its always a stop when I head downtown. This is the best pizza in downtown. The pizza is so cheesy and you can sit outside and enjoy the sites. I will continue to visit for years to come.Time and time again I continue to come back to this pizzeria because they make high quality pizza.Every night I visit Downtown I head over for a slice or get a whole if Im with friends.Ive been coming here for 10+ years and havent found another pizza place as good as this one.

Best pizza ever ! Can buy by the slice or whole. A small intimate pizza cafe with inside & outside dinning. In the walkway mall next to the Mission Inn & 1 block from the Fox Performing Arts Theater. There is street parking & a parking structure on the corner of Market Street & Mission. A great place to hang out.

Weve officially switched our weekly pizza fix to Antonious. This place makes THE quintessential pizza. Sauce is amazing, dough is nice and chewy and the cheese is cheesy. Owner is super down-to-earth and the staff is personable. And to top it off, the prices are great! Extra large for $10 bucks? Cant beat it. I drive all the way from behind UCR and bring it back home.

Review β„–75

I decided to come here based on all the good reviews. In reality, the food is overpriced and not that good at all. I got the pizza which I must say is one of the worst slices of pizza I’ve ever had. It was basically just a bunch of bread lacking any flavor. They also don’t offer many lunch choices either. My dad got a sandwich and for $10 it was pretty disappointing. This place is more of a hangout for little kids than an actual restaurants for adults.

Im very sad to have to give such a low rating for this place. Ive been here about three times and had no complaints the first two times. I came to this place 2 days ago and got really bad food poisoning. Probably my fault for not asking for a fresh slice and who knows how long the pizza was sitting out before it was serviced to me. I am also pregnant so this makes the situation a whole lot worse! Still feeling terrible
