Reviews for Anthony?s Restaurant ? Boise in Boise, ID
Heard about this place and wanted to try, decided to go for my birthday dinner. I arrived early 4pm, I had choice of patio,... dining room or bar seating. I was informed live music was in the bar, so I opted to dine in the bar. Music was a local artistwith a guitar playing a variety of popular music. I think the waiter was new because he handed me a patio (happy hour) menu. The patio menu had a great selection of food and drink specials. I asked if dinner was being served and if so what time. Hedidn't know and left to ask, he returned with a dinner menu. When I arrived, so did four other tables. The waiter was the mainserver and did a good job keeping track of who arrived when and served accordingly. He handled the rush well. I ordered the pawncocktail, bacon wrapped dates and Anthony's Crab stack. The crab stack and cocktail came out together and the dates took alittle longer. The crab stack was amazing, flavorful, colorful and had large chunks of crabmeat. The prawn cocktail wasbeautiful presented with large chilled pawns (tails down) on nugget ice with a wedge of lemon and a small dish of cocktailsauce. The dates arrived in short order still warm. These dates were stuffed with brie cheese and almond then drizzled withbalsamic vinegar and honey. The flavors are amazing and some of the best stuffed dates I've ever enjoyed. My only complaint is,I was expecting more of a variety of fish dinners. Maybe, these items are reserved for weekday specials and holidays. However, Iwould recommend Anthony's and I would definitely visit again. I was very pleased with the food and service. Read more
Blue Cheese Salad, don’t do bay shrimp. Trout was pretty good, meat me it’s OK and baked potatoes perfect. Trout dish in... better with leaks. ????. Great waitress and good service Read more
I can’t even begin to express my gratitude for the people that work at this restaurant. Not only is the food super delicious... and staff super helpful and nice, the Manager (I wish I caught his name) and John went above and beyond tonight! My wife and Ihave been waiting for awhile to find out the gender of our child. Tonight I handed John a sealed envelope with the gender of ourchild inside and asked him if he could make this night even more special. John pulled through like a boss and gave us a dessertto remember. I really appreciate all the efforts this restaurant did to make our night a wonderful experience! Here’s to ournext great adventure!

Wife and I went for our anniversary. We both got appetizers, her some scallops with a bacon jelly thing and I had mussels. Her... scallops were delicious and cooked perfectly. The bacon jam wasn't bad either and there was some other vinaigrette sauce thatwas pretty tasty as well. My scallops were meh. For dinner we both had a version of surf and turf. She got the American wagyusirloin with shrimp and I got the Idaho rainbow trout + another wagyu sirloin. Her shrimp were tough and overcooked and hersirloin was a bad cut of meat that was tough. The sirloin was cooked perfectly though and the butter on top was great. My troutwas absolutely delicious and my steak cooked perfectly and much more tender. Both of us had some broccolini that could have useda bit more cooking and salt or something. Regardless I cleaned my plate. Dessert was pretty meh as well, wife got some sort ofmelting chocolate cake that was more like a flat souffle. I bring up the minor details because Anthony's is not cheap so the baris set high. As for the food, I would definitely go again. Atmosphere and ambiance are good. Not too loud. Only complaint therewould be the cramped tables. It's not horrible but you can easily hear your neighbor's conversation. Service was absolutelyfantastic and top notch. Nothing was forgotten, it was fairly quick, professional, but also welcoming. There were families withsmall children which was great, it's not so snooty you can't bring everyone. Overall I really liked it. Wish my wife's foodwould have been better but next time she can order something different. Read more
There's a reason this place is rated so highly. We were sat almost immediately, food came out in a timely manner and our... waitress was great. We enjoyed a little of everything including dessert! The seafood and steak were 12/10 ??????. Willdefinitely recommend this place and also come back for more. Thank you for an amazing night and a wonderful experience! Read more
My family and I booked a reservation for 7:15pm on Saturday November 6th to celebrate my grandmother’s birthday. Parking was... a breeze, with multiple parking garages near and even beneath the restaurant with elevator access to the lobby area of therestaurant. Walking to the hostess desk, we were warmly welcomed by two hostess’ who were eager and excited to get usseated. After arriving at our table, we weren’t seated for more than 30 seconds when our waitress came over to introduceherself and offer the wine selection that was available along with outstanding memory of the content on the menu includingappetizer, entree and dessert options. Our waitress was very polite and even engaged in conversation with us about our two newcanine puppies we adopted; she appreciated the picture we showed her. After receiving and finishing off our appetizers, ourEntre’s were delivered to our table without a moments notice. The presentation of the dishes was exquisite and we were verythrilled to satisfy our taste buds. My grandmother was offered a birthday dessert topped with a cherry and a lit candle and wealso made the decision to try a couple of the other dessert choices that were available- one of them was the bread pudding andit was superb! I will definitely be returning- GREAT experience, Anthony’s. Thank you for making our night special tocelebrate my Grandmothers birthday! Read more
Lovely seafood restaurant that flies in fresh selections daily. I would recommend getting here early as things may run out due... to the fact they fly things in fresh everyday so there are limited quantities. I had the black cod which was delicious. We alsoenjoyed oysters on the half shell which were fresh and tasty as well. My husband had the king salmon which was wonderfullyprepared and tasted great. Our server Kay (I'm terrible with names but I hope I'm right!) was attentive and informative on menuchoices. We were celebrating our anniversary and were comped a rich slice of cheesecake for dessert. The Anthony's lemonadewhich is vodka with seasonal fruit and lemonade was impressively good. Definitely recommend and look forward to coming back andtrying other menu items. Read more
