Anthony’s iconic location has been a family favorite for decades. The Athanas family’s sons are still doing a wonderful job. It was a quiet late afternoon birthday celebration for my mother and it was lovely. The baked stuffed lobster was delicious and the body was full of meat. The popovers were steamy and delicious. Even the appetizers (calamari and fried clams) were great!

Theresa was an excellent waitress. Very attentive but let my friend and I chat and catch up. Went to extra steps to take care of a special request.
