My first visit. Recommended by my niece who lives nearby. Lunchtime was quiet but they expected 120 for dinner. 😳. Needless to say the service was excellent, very attentive and informative. The menu was comprehensive with a very good range of choices including options for the Gluten Free members of our community. Nearly all dishes can be made GF if required. A nice touch, especially with pizza and pasta on the menu. The decor was great (big pizza oven too); and genuine Italian music filled the air. Now the food. I had the pasta (Papadella) with mushrooms (fungi). Very tasty, creamy with both pasta and mushrooms al dente, just how I like it. The other main was the twice cooked duck (based on the French style). Also very tasty with a mash and baby broccolini. Two duck legs well presented. No wine today. Overall a treat, and definitley worth a visit. We will return with others 'in tow' 👌
Great atmosphere, great staff and great food! Couldn't have asked for much more definitely recommend you won't be disappointed.
An absolutely fabulous eatery. The food is too good for words and you will not leave this place hungry. The service is impeccable and the staff go above and beyond to make sure your experience here is one to remember. Thank you Anthony and your staff for your hospitality and helping to make our boys’ day perfect.
I put out a challenge try and find me a restaurant in the eastern suburbs that can provide home cooked Italian dishes with staff that are so accomodating fantastic user friendly wine list and don't forget that great chef and front of house that remembers your name on arrival Anthony
First visit with my Chinese friends and we loved it, great food and service. So yummy I told my guests it's ok to wipe the sauce clean with the pane. That's what we Italians do we mange with gusto. Thank you Anthony for your kind hospitality I was so floored with how low the bill was I forgot to tip your fabulous staff. See you tomorrow.
Great food and plenty of it! Excellent coffee and service. Have had dinner and brunch here and came away both times impressed with the food and service.
Service, food, atmosphere 10/10 beautiful.
They obviously love their restaurant and look after their staff as it shows in their table service. Will highly recommend and can’t wait to come back! �
We recently celebrated my daughter’s christening at Anthony’s and it was fantastic! The staff were friendly, helpful & professional. The food was great and not one person left hungry! Anthony was a pleasure to deal with and very accommodating. To anyone who is looking for a venue to hold their next function I would highly recommend you contacting Anthony’s.
Absolutely lovely dining experience, was very well taken care of and staff were very friendly. Food was fantastic, cannot recommended this restaurant enough!
Great food , service and atmosphere. I have NEVER recommended a restaurant but pleased , that Anthony's is the first.
We left it to Anthony, himself to organise starters and entrees, for a table of 12, and by the time it came time to order mains, everyone was to full to eat anything but dessert. Thanks once again to Anthony and fabulous staff
Anthony was very welcoming and all the staff were exceptional and couldn't do enough for us. Everything was on point, great bread for entree, good ambience - no blaring tv's or music. Pizza was amazing, this place is a cut above, great experience.
Dinner for 3 - well enjoyed & recommend this place for casual dining, good food, wide selection of food & wine. Only issue was bar service where we twice had to remind the bar Queen that it was an expectation that after we ordered drinks and she rang them up on the till that there was an obligation to actually pour & deliver them ;-)
Otherwise the service, advice re the menu, prompt seating and general ambience we rated highly.
For starters we shared Arancini and the stuffed olives - generous serves, well presented and tasty.
Mains - Blue Swimmer crab, Pene Polo & Ragu all arrived at the same time, piping hot & huge serves. All 3 of us were very pleased with the presentation and quality of our meals.
Pricing - perhaps a little high, but on the basis we couldn't find fault and enjoyed our evening I'd give it a BIG TICK and will return.
Writing this review after 4 visits. Service is a bit hit and miss- some days it is so friendly, warm and attentive, other times a bit blase. Food is always delicious and prompt- but I do find entrees small and very overpriced. $15 each for warm olives or a VERY small serve of polenta chips is ridiculous. Particularly for the olives! In saying that, the dessert was small but delicious although it did seem rather haphazardly thrown together.
Food is fantastic & service outstanding. Have been there for breakfast & dinner, both were excellent. Great to see Anthony himself approach tables for a chat. Will be returning.
Very busy on Saturday night.
On site parking is convenient.
Family friendly.
The initial drink service was slow - twice reminded of our outstanding order.
Lovely complimentary warm bread to start with a small bowl of olive oil & balsamic - we requested butter too when the oil quickly ran out.
Her: Gnocchi ragu = delicious & filling
Him: Linguini vongole = tasty
Me: Cacciucco (seafood stew) = satisfying
All: Side of patate = perfect, crispy outside & fluffy inside
Complimentary coffees were offered but declined.
Cheesecake takeaway
Two of us felt like we had overeaten when we left - slightly uncomfortable but contented.
The menu above is out-dated, as is the one on facebook.
I was disappointed that I couldn't get the fantastic pistachio panna cotta (which I've had before), perhaps its a summer menu item.
I have been to Anthony's 4 times with my partner and the food is amazing!! However the service By one of the waitresses was disgusting. The first time she was repeatedly and obviously rude to my wife. This was immediately noticed after she would not acknowledge her, right through to her sarcasm. Each time we have been in we were served by this woman who was both arrogant and had an attitude that could only be described that we were inconveniencing her night. The food is delicious, especially their pastas which is the best we have had.
I dined at Anthony's a few months ago now. The food was of a great standard, and well-liked by all. I would definitely recommend the prosciutto pizza, it was divine! The service was excellent, and the staff happily catered to a nut allergy! The dining room is styled nicely, however due to full-length glass windows, the sun beaming through made us uncomfortably hot. Waiters happily moved us to a shadier table, so this wasn't a problem for us, but something to keep in mind. It was quite a loud atmosphere, due to chatter and live music, but some may argue it adds to the charm!? Pricing was reasonable too, so we were overall very satisfied with the evening! I would definitely recommend visiting!
Been here 3 times and haven't been let down once! Amazing service, super friendly staff and gorgeous atmosphere. I had the Pappardelle cooked perfectly and the beef cheek just melted in my mouth! Not to even mention the delicious desserts in the cabinet! You can't go wrong at Anthony's!
Had my 50th birthday family dinner at Anthony's tonight. Excellent food, service & atmosphere. Would highly recommend for any occasion.
My sons live in Melbourne and they said Anthony's was top notch.
See you again soon!
Thank you

We went to Anthony's an hour before they opened for lunch, coffee and cake from 11am-12pm. Anthony himself was very helpful, placing our order half an hour early and preparing the restaurant for lunch service.
I was delighted to see vongole on the specials board!Our meals came out quickly and well presented. We enjoyed our meals and wines.
Have only been here once and would like to come back to try some other things on the menu. I had the duck ragu fettuccini and it was really nice! Lots of other tasty looking things on the menu. Some things are a bit pricey but as long as they are nice and taste good then I don't mind.
Awesome classic Italian food!! All of the entrees we tried were amazing, I had t-bone for main which was also great. Good atmosphere and great service, highly recommend to anyone. Keep up the great work Anthony 👍🏼

I've been to this place a few times and each time it gets better.
The food was good the first time but a steak was underdone. The staff apologised to profusely and were so good about it that I came back willingly.
The pizza the second time was top notch. The pasta that my friends had was also really good.
I rate this place and visit as often as they're not booked out. (Did I mention book ahead to eat in?)
Delicious, authentic italian food it a surprising but great location! I went with a group of old school friends to catch up and we could have sat there for hours, great atmosphere and service from Anthony himself. Very accommodating. Coming back this weekend and bringing the whole family!
Came for dinner, left to full to walk!! It's a pizzeria people stick to what restaurants are good at Italian cuisine at its finest. Coffee, cakes, food, mood, service all perfect. The owner, Anthony of course made ah effort to go around to all the tables once people were getting settled to introduce himself and welcome you personally absolutely amazing food not to costly. All around quality. Wools definitely recommend.
Thank you Joanna for your constructive criticism which we take seriously from our dear valued customers in relation to your experience with us we endeavoured to rectify the problems with your order where we did give you five extra prawns plus we corrected your pizza order with the missing topping and in all fairness we will go above and beyond to hopefully ensure our customers have an enjoyable experience within our premises.
Went there on a day date with my girlfriend and the food was great. Great service and top quality food. Pizza was really good and full of flavor and the mussels were delicious. Great atmosphere and ambience and great addition to the area. Definitely worth a try.
New awesome place just opened. Had and assortment of entree dishes to share, I guess you can call it Italian Tapas....all of was very tasty. Had the rib eye for main, 300-350 gram for $32, what great value. Too full to try deserts. Maybe next time. All in all, great food, excellent service and nice atmosphere.
