The food was wonderful as were the servers who took our plates and refilled our drinks, etc. Our waiter, although did his job, was rude. In his attempts to be funny, he actually came off very insulting to my mother and my two children. He treated them like they didn't know anything and then got on my daughter for not eating all of her vegetables and then proceeded to tell her how expensive the mozzarella was in her gnocchi and she better make sure she eats all of it. My daughters are 15 & 19 and we are all very well versed in our palates & to be treated like they were 2 years old esp. from a waiter was less than par. When I asked if he would be able to check the ingredients in the Bloody Mary to make sure there wasn't any clam juice in it since I'm highly allergic, he told me that he would check on it when he had time. Not the right answer. We really like your restaurant and have eaten here many times and have never experienced this type of service from a waiter. We do hope to return but really hope this will be shared with him since this type of attitude will really hurt your business. We were not the only ones having this experience either. The table next to us was also having a similar experience as well.

Enjoyed another great meal at Trattoria Antica. Both our meals were very good. We enjoyed a shared Caprese salad prior to the shrimp pasta and the spaghetti and meatballs entrees, and couple of glasses of wine. Service was attentive and top notch.

We had a large group of 9 women celebrating a birthday. The food was excellent- our group ordered a variety of food including traditional Italian such as Lasagna, Ravioli, as well as chicken and fish dishes. Everyone raved about the food. My favorite there is Salmone Sciliana - unique presentation which includes black olives and capers. The service was very attentive and helped to make our evening out a real pleasure. This is our favorite restaurant in the Waxhaw area and definitely one of the top Italian restaurants in Charlotte (the other Conte Restaurants such as Mezzanote and Toscana are similar and equally good).
