I used to go to Fontana for so many years , yesterday my husband got me a chicken souvlaki it used to be chunks of white chicken meat grilled and put on a pita with lettuce onion tomatoes and lots of taziki sauce well wow what a great DISAPPOINTMENT DRY SHREDDED DARK MEAT THATS ALL I GOT NEVER AGAIN !! and the process haven't gone down of course FONTANA what happened ???

A great low key Italian restaurant in the heart of Mill Basin! Great Food and Customer Service. It's beautiful inside and out they also do home deliveries. I love the Pastas,Soups, and especially the Calamari! This a must to on the weekends.

Who's hungry? I was..Neighborhood gem. Small, cute establishment. Upon entering, warmly greeted and seated immediately. Upon conversation, our waiter was the owners son Aaron. Such a warm friendly accommodating young man. Very engaging when taking orders and a very dynamic interaction. The food:Started with fried calamari and baked clams both were delicious. Loved the fact the calamari was lightly breaded and not overly fried, paired well with the marinara sauce.Baked clams delicious only drawback and it's because of my preference a bit garlicky but for the garlic lovers you would appreciate.My main dish penna in vodka sauce with shrimp scampi delicious. Well seasoned but for me a bit heavy with the garlic. My reason for 3 star, the shrimp was not deveined. My dining partner had the penne pasta with grill lemon pepper chicken which he absolutely loved. Other dining partner enjoyed her shrimp on marina with a side salad. Salad was fresh and crisp with delicious dressing. Dessert: wasn't the cheesecake I was expecting. It had a spongecake type consistency but it was delicious and we devoured it. Tiramisu, I don't usually partake but there's was such an awesome blend of coffee, moistness, not overly sweet I found my "just one little taste" turned into several little tastes. Lol All in all great experience, definitely recommend and I will return.BTW.. l love the fact I stated my favorite gelato flavors are passionfruit and raspberry which they didn't have.. he actually wrote it down to relay to his Dad. Whether or not it happens I appreciate the fact he listened.Bonus.. it's on Seated. Download the app enter my code Michelle1454 to be rewarded for eating out! You're welcome!

What time is one of my go to when I'm in Mill basin? It's got excellent food excellent service. The place is decorated really nice. If you're in Mill basin. Definitely check them out I highly recommend? The vodka sauce is great.

I've ordered from Fontana's in the past and their food is always pretty delicious. Normally I get the penne a la vodka with chicken but this time I decided to be a bit more adventurous and try their Chicken parm hero sandwich and mozzarella sticks. The sandwich came nicely packaged and it's a great size which I was happy about because it lasted me all day lol Taste wise, it was pretty good just needed some more seasoning or flavoring. Something was missing from the chicken, but it wasn't the worst thing. I would rate it a 7.5. The mozzarella sticks were a perfect 10! Hot and crispy and served with sauce. They tasted fresh and delicious. Delivery was great too and I ordered via Grubhub. I would def recommend and would order again. P.S. I've eaten in here as we before Covid and their sangria is to die for! Nice and strong, not weak (I hate weak drinks lol) and their service is great for dine in as well. Enjoy!

I've lived in the neighborhood for two years and kept passing Fontana's, always meaning to try it. I finally went yesterday. Very, very pleased!First, it was 6pm on a Saturday night and there was no wait. We were greeted by a lovely waitress who directed us to sit anywhere. The space was clean, the decor was pretty, and the music (80s pop) was just the right volume and perfect for the ambiance.We inquired about what would be included in the hot antipasto, and the waitress brought the chef out to answer our questions. I was in the mood for eggplant, but I heard him say there would be one piece of eggplant rollatini, so I said, "Oh, only one piece?" And he very kindly offered to include two if we wanted.In the end, we decided to share a large avocado salad and an order of eggplant parmigiana with spaghetti. The portions were more than enough and the chef even went as far as to divide the eggplant/spaghetti entree into two even plates for us. The dish was very, very good, and the salad was chock full of chunky avocado and other yummy mix-ins. It was delicious. I had enough of my meal left over to eat for lunch the next day. When I opened the bag, I noticed that they had packed a fresh piece of italian bread to go along with it!We were extremely impressed by the kindness and thoughtfulness of the staff. We will definitely return based on the customer service alone. Looking forward to trying the penne caprese entree, the hot antipasto, and more of their unique salads!

This place is amazing. Went for a special occasion late lunch. Service, food and drinks were off the chart great. Highly recommend. Classic Italian dishes with old school ambience. You'll have a tough time finding better Italian food anywhere.

Ordered food via Uber Eats. Food was delicious! Will definitely order again. Adding them to my favs.

Ordered the primavera pasta with linguine. They gave me penne instead and the vegetables you could tell are cooked either in the morning or the day before. For the price you pay you kind of expect that it will taste good and you get the pasta that you want. La villas primavera is way better

The ambiance was nice, the restaurant is nice and clean and decor is very pleasant to look at. The service on point very courteous, patient and friendly and in a timely manner. Food was ok, the best part of meal was appetizers which was the calamari which was delicious along with the hot bread they served. My spaghetti and chicken meatballs, too much sauce and meatballs need some flavor but otherwise it was a decent meal for the price. I would definitely go again just to try something else on the menu. Nice location , easy parking.
