One visit to Anthony’s creative Italian cuisine & you will be hooked. As you walk into one of three beautifully redesigned dinning rooms, in a building that dates back to the 1930’s, you will smell the aromas of the freshest ingredients and spices, which are used to create the unique menu. This coupled with the warm earth tones & natural lighting from the oversized windows makes dining here a truly special experience. Outdoor café dinning when weather permits adds to the romantic ambience.As you are escorted to your table you can’t help but notice the beautifully crafted temperature controlled oak wine cabinet which houses up to 200 bottles of wine. Since the restaurant is a BYOB, the owners wanted to provide customers with a place to store their favorite wines so they are readily available each time they visit. Anthony’s also offers the use of any of their dinning rooms for private events.

    I haven’t been to a.kitchen in a while and decided to try it with friends and family. I was so pleasantly surprised at how comprehensive the menu was. I had the tuna melt, my sister had the eggs and my friend had the octopus and soup. It was so delicious. The staff was so friendly. The only down side was how loud it was in there. There was a large party there and it was very loud. I’ll be back.

    Although pricey, lovely ambience and awesome dinner. Perfect for Valentines and loved that we stayed at the hotel and didn’t have to go outside to get dinner. Quiet enough for conversation but also perfect dinner music. Walked across the hotel lobby and grabbed a drink at Spice Finch, also lovely!

    As expected the service was excellent. It was a bit noisier due to it being a holiday-Valentine’s Day the next day. The fish called Orato smelled funny, I returned it and ordered the salmon in its place. This was delicious. The food like the salad was terrific and the soup was great. I would definitely return.
