Don Antonio, Manhattan

What people say, in short
Don Antonio draws recommendations for Neapolitan pizza and a sit-down meal in the theater district. A diner particularly likes its fried pizza, while another calls the pizza excellent. One local recommends sharing different individual pies with a group. Waiting for a table can be a concern, and a visitor finds the montanara sauce too concentrated. Those reservations sit alongside strong praise rather than a guarantee of an effortless visit.
