Antonucci's Italian & Seafood Restaurant

Nearly Five Decades of Italian Hospitality

Nearly five decades ago, a neighborhood Italian spot opened on Alicia Parkway — and never left. Antonucci's is Mission Viejo's oldest Italian restaurant, and every plate still tastes like proof of why it lasted.

Since 1976 in Mission Viejo

Antonucci's opened in 1976 and has called the same Alicia Parkway address home since 1986 — Mission Viejo's longest-running Italian restaurant. Families who came as kids now bring their own.

Land, Sea, and Italian Soul

The kitchen honors two traditions at once: classic Italian-American cooking and the fresh coastal seafood of Southern California. Hand-rolled pasta shares the table with cioppino rich with shrimp, clams, and mussels.

The People Who Make It

Ask any regular and they'll tell you — it's servers like Lisa and Sunny who make Antonucci's feel like home. First-timers often leave with a complimentary tiramisu; regulars leave with their order already remembered for next time.

A Room Worth Lingering In

Tuscan countryside murals, warm pendant lights, and a red rose on every table — a room that hasn't chased trends because it never needed to. Come for dinner, stay for a glass from the full bar.

Come As You Are

Breakfast, lunch, and dinner all week long — pull up a stool at the bar, grab a booth with the family, or come in solo. We're always happy to take care of you.
