Review based on take-out experience. Anthony's has always been my go-to for a quick easy dinner. I ordered a 16 inch pepperoni pizza with garlic rolls and wings. My food arrived fresh and everything was incredibly flavorful. Pick up was quick and friendly. Overall, I would order again. read more

Good quality pizza. The burrata pizza was tasty. We ordered carry out, and they were pretty quick on a Monday night. Friendly staff.

Delicious pizza worth the wait! I was lucky enough to try Anthony's pizza with cauliflower and white sauce during its test run--it's amazing and never disappoints! Service can be slow right now due to staffing, but the team is doing their best. Highly recommend! read more

Pizza is always great here however, they always forget the extras that I order and pay for. Whoever is bagging the to go orders needs to refer to the order receipt and make sure everything is in the bag that was ordered. Today we ordered delivery and the salad came without the gorgonzola that we paid for. This isn't the first time this has happened. I had to call and ask for a refund. Also, the 4 piece mini cannoli dessert lacks filling. They only put a dot of filling on each end to make the cannoli look full. Once you bite into it, the entire center of the shell is empty. Not worth the $6.99 plus tax. Photos attached to show the lack of filling. I won't order those again. The tiramisu was wonderful. read more

I ordered a small Cesar salad, that was enough for 2 people. Unfortunately, it was drowning in dressing so I couldn't finish it. I did enjoy the Hawaiian pizza special with a glass of a lovely sangria. Service was very good. Prices were okay. Got very busy and loud as more diners came. Great for families. read more

Delicious pizza and wings! I would highly recommend the dry run wings. The food was hot and fresh, and arrived in great time. The staff was kind and super patient either way our group of 7. No big notes on the decor/ambiance. Just a cozy place for good food. read more

We had a reservation at 6:00 for 13 people. When we arrived, they didn't have our table set up. The waitress informed us that there were only 2 waitresses working and we would just have to wait. We did. We were patient and did not make a fuss. We ordered 4 appetizers and 2 kids dinners right away. The appetizers and 1 kids meal was served promptly. The other kids meal never came. We went on to order dinner which was a total of 5 pizzas. The first one came out about 45 minutes after we ordered. We were told there was a problem with the oven. The other 4 came out one at a time in 15 minute intervals. The AC was also broken. One person in our party asked for water 4 times. On the 5th time, he asked for a soda. The soda came after the fourth request. We asked to see the manager and we were told that managers don't work on Fridays!!! What??? A manager finally came in after several complaints from several customers. He did stop by our table but offered nothing for our inconvenience. When we got our bill, we asked for a copy of the receipt. Guess what? The printer was broken too! After 3 hours and 15 minutes our dining experience was (finally) over! Needless to day, we will not be returning anytime soon. We did tip our waitress although her service (setting aside the kitchen issues) was less than good. read more

Ordered curbside pick up. Filled in the descriptors of Make/Model/ color of pick up car. Added a tip on the web site as we requested curbside. Got there and waited. And waited. And waited. I finally went in. The restaurant had a few people in but by no means full, but 3 at the take out counter. And a dozen or so visible employees. And I waited. And waited I specified curbside order when it was my turn - no comment nor apology. Their food quality & taste once home was good, Paulie's pie was as ordered. But the service was absolutely not worth the added tip. read more

Anthony's Coal Fired Pizza & Wings - Paulies Pie w/ Sweet peppers - Italian Near Me - Brandon, Florida

My friends and I ate at Anthony's yesterday at approximately 6:00 P.M. We have a table that we like to sit at. It is near a speaker and, even though we were the ONLY people in the restaurant, the manager said he could not turn the music down. Our server was lovely but there are changes all cutting food items or the size. The small Italian salad is now served on a plate instead of a bowl (less product). You no longer get focaccia bread with the Eggplant Marino appetizer. We were so disappointed that we may not be going back even though we have been eating there every other month for probably 5 - 10 years. read more

Was originally very excited to try this place since I've heard good things but was very underwhelmed and unimpressed. I ordered pick up, it was ready promptly, but to my surprise, it was overly charred. I don't mind well done pizza but i couldn't eat half the crust (esp the bottom right section in the picture) because it just tasted burnt. The crust is my favorite part and it was tasteless. The texture of the crust (that wasn't burnt) was chewy and good. I'm also a red sauce girl, so I was disappointed that the base was cheese and there was only a couple of red sauce dollops on top. It felt like I was eating cheesy bread but could only dip some of it in marinara. Overall, not terrible but wouldn't be a usual spot for me read more

The past few times I have been here I have been disappointed, so I probably need to take a break. This time, I had downloaded the app, which was supposed to give me a free soup and salad. The server said it wasn't showing in my account and therefore I wasn't entitled to the offered gift. She made no effort to try and rectify the situation. I then ordered the meatball sandwich. It arrived looking like a small pizza, bent in half with some meatballs and sauce. I had asked they not include the pepper that was usually there as it was spicy. There was no cheese, which I found odd. Overall, not a good experience. read more

The food here is amazing. The service is great servers are pleasant and very knowledgeable. The ambiance is perfect for families to get together and even if you have a work meeting. I would definitely recommend this place. Yoshi is one of the managers and she will take good care of you. read more

I have eaten here nearly a dozen times in the past. Have ordered pizza every time. However, this time I ordered the meatball sandwich. The "bread" was basically pizza dough, which was fine with me, but it was pretty thick and dominated the sandwich. The meatballs were pretty good and I liked how they were sliced (making it easier to take a bite. The sandwich came with provolone and a hot pepper. I asked to leave off the pepper, while they did. Unfortunately, as you can see on the picture that I took of the inside of the sandwich, there was no cheese. Typically I would have brought this to the attention to our server. Given that we were dining with friends I decided to not make a fuss. This is the second of two disappointing visits in a row. Time to look for other options. read more

As always, the food is great. Never a complaint for the kitchen. However, the wait staff leaves a lot to be desired. It was frustrating to wait so long to be seen after we sat down. We waited for our server to come ask if our food was good. Nothing about specials. Nothing about appetizers. Nothing about dessert. And finally, we waited forever to get the check. We watched for what seemed like 20 minutes while our server rolled silverware. Totally clueless about her tables. We all hear how good help is hard to find - and I'm afraid Anthony's is consistently a prime example of exactly that. read more

We have been customers for years. Last night was not a good experience. We arrived to many dirty tables. Lots of workers just standing around. Manager looking confused. Server was strange. Food was not as good as usual. Salad was brown and not appealing. Pizza was just mediocre. read more

We walked in on a Wednesday evening, place looked reasonable busy with several open tables. A server walked by and said it would be a few minutes. 30 minutes later we were still standing in the doorway, actively being ignored by the staff, open tables still visible. We will never go back, perhaps the staff needs better training on how to treat customers. read more

I can't speak to the dining experience because we did carry out, but it was relatively easy putting in our order in person. Food/price: while I don't remember the price of each individual pizza, our total for below with tax was about $48. - Paulie's Pie: baby meatballs, Italian sausage, ricotta cheese, and we specifically asked for half sweet peppers and half of their long hot finger peppers. Great portions of meat and the half sweet and half hot peppers was a great move my husband made. Some of those hot peppers really are SPICY, and I have a pretty solid heat tolerance. - Roasted Cauliflower: square pizza topped with cauliflower roasted with olive oil and garlic, Romano, mozzarella cheese, and breadcrumbs. This smells so good when you open the box. Generous portions of cauliflower, such an umami flavored pizza and I think it paired excellently with the paulie's pie. You have the hot bite and the nice soothing bite of this one. Overall, the pizzas were great! A little pricey but I thought the quality made it worth it. read more

We stopped in last minute on a Friday night around 7 and were seated right away. The restaurant was clean and tidy, the workers were all doing a great job. I like the simple layout of the place, seems to make for better, easier, faster service. Our food came out quickly and our server was fantastic (thanks Chelsea!) The wings were delicious and crispy but were probably sitting in a warmer a little too long as they were just a tad dry. Still very good and I would order them again. The pizza was fire! Definitely "Well Done!" We will absolutely be back again soon. read more

We ate at Anthony's quite often because the food was very good. Three months ago, we asked for a box to take home a few pieces of pizza we couldn't finish and SURPRISE there was an enormous cockroach in the box. My wife screamed, threw the box on the floor. The manager was there in a flash and the gist of what he said was this, "Oh, there's been cockroachs in every restaurant I've worked at." Just last week, we decided to give them another chance and SURPRISE, we ordered a large salad to start and walking around under the lettuce was a HUGE Cockroach. That's it Anthony's. Never again, goodbye, fini! read more

Went here for the first time with friends! We sat outside and had a great time catching up with each other. The staff was the best here they continuously checked up on us and offered suggestions on the menu and answered any questions that we asked. I had the Maria's meatballs which were good and nice and hot. I also had a slice of the traditional pepperoni pizza. My table also had the wings and garlic knots. These 2 items are the best. Make sure to try them out when in Brandon. You will not be disappointed Until next review Kisses read more

$63 for an overly burnt edges of a 12-inch pizza and 20pcs of chewy chicken wings. Never again.

Anthony's has to be one of the most legit pizza chains I can think of, arguably the best in Florida. Amazing undercarriage always, dough is so flavorful and plump. Thick cup pepperonis, outstanding wings, and meatballs are wonderful. The sauce here has a nice tang to it, can dip nearly anything in it and it works out. 9/10 pizza joint read more

This is a tough one. I liked the food, but my overall experience makes it a 3 star review for this location only. I say that because I didn't see the fine print on the website that states, "Full bar vs beer/wine restaurants vary by location." I was anticipating that they would have the Anthony's Mojito that I saw on their website that has Dragon Berry Bacardi Rum. I asked about it and was told they only do passion fruit and that it's on their specialty drink menu. I like passion fruit so I ordered it. Towards the end of the meal, I asked the server what brand of rum was in this drink. I needed to know because I didn't like it. That's when she told me that it was wine-based. I really think that people need to know that it's wine-based up front. I was expecting rum and this mojito was horrible. Just so you all know, this location only serves wine and beer. The food was good. I didn't want pizza because I'm not really into well-done pizza. I wanted to eat light anyway. We split the regular size order of Eggplant Marino. This is named after my favorite quarterback, Dan Marino. We also split the small order of the Maria's Meatballs and a small order of Arugula Salad with Burrata. We liked all 3 of them. The eggplant is very simple. It's thinly sliced and breaded eggplant with just romano cheese and tomato sauce in between the layers. The presentation was nice with the large sprig of basil. The meatballs were very good with the ricotta cheese and bread on the side. I really liked the Focaccia bread. It was perfect for dipping into the sauce. The arugula salad is another item that I would order again. The double shot of espresso with the lemon peel slice was the perfect ending. The service was great with the exception of not being told about the wine-based drinks. I wouldn't have known to ask since this was my first time at this restaurant. Who would ask that question anyway when ordering a mojito? I should have asked about the rum, and I know now to do that next time I visit another Anthony's location. The location is very noisy, and it's hard to carry on a conversation when it's full. This location is very busy. The pizza looked very good. I only saw charred edges, and I'd definitely try it one day if I find out for sure that the bottom isn't charred. I just don't know that yet. I want to go back and try the roasted chicken wings. It will most likely be a to-go order next time. I'll update my review once I've tried the other menu items. Update: I forgot to mention that it was freezing cold in there too. I'm usually hot all the time (after having chemotherapy a couple of years back). It was uncomfortably cold here even with all the people inside the restaurant. Just an FYI to bring a sweater. read more

Anthony's Coal Fired Pizza & Wings - Create your own pizza - Italian Near Me - Brandon, Florida

Absolutely the worst pizza I've ever had. The crust was hard and cold. The ingredients were all dumped in the center leaving as much as 2-3 inches of plain crust. That nasty crust needs to be covered in sauce, not sauce neglected. I will NEVER eat here again. And I'll probably throw the leftovers away. The service was acceptable though. Not great, average. read more

It's a beautiful day here in Tampa/Brandon, so I'd decided to try this place. Saw on the google listing that they have outdoor tables, but the ones up front at this hour are the only one that get sunlight. So I chose to sit at the bar inside. I was greeted by a polite and upbeat bartender who asked if I wanted a drink. I told her I'd think about that. After about 5 minutes I asked her for a red Sangria, pictured. It is good, but the glass had a some white food residue stuck to it. Not a bad value. Then I waited about 5 more minutes and had to ask for a menu. Meanwhile the bartender (who is ALSO serving tables) gave menu and some helpful ordering advice. At the same time there was an employee at the bar wiping down menus. I wound up ordering a carnivore pizza sans meatballs. It took about 16 minutes to come out and it was delicious. The sauce is decent, but not anything super special. The cheese had flavor, the crust was perfect. Also the sausage, pepperoni and bacon was very good. Definitely one of the better pies in this area, except for the sauce, which is neither awesome not bad. Some additional herbs/spices like garlic or basil or even a little salt wouldn't hurt. Another thing I noticed, the bartender had to dump about 30% of a draft beer (Jai Lai) to get it to "pour correctly". This is usually a sign of several things (possibly) 1. Beer is not cold enough at the tap 2. The tap/lines are dirty 3. A dirty glass. The staff does work together well. but I could see my bartender/server doing much more than her share. All in all I will probably return. read more

We visited this restaurant while in Tampa and upon walking into the restaurant we were hit with sweltering heat. The waitress greeted us with no explanation as to why it was so hot, I mean I get it, the a/c could be out but she could have at least explained and apologized. Nevertheless, we decided to be seated outside. The seating area outside was filthy! She offered one table that had a half eaten chicken bone under the table! There were crumbs all over the tables and she didn't even offer to wipe it down! After seating, both my husband and I noticed a fowl smell! That was it, we just simply got up and left. Who would want to eat in such a nasty environment?! read more

Waitress was super nice and accommodating. I was a little disappointed to see supreme pizza be taken off the menu. Two pizzas and a 10 count of wings were 90$, which wasn't too bad. The price was due to the "custom" pizza order. I asked for this though, well I asked for their previously made supreme, which after base price of $25ish is 2-3$ per topping after. Either way, pizza is good. I would definitely recommend and definitely return. This isn't the place to go if you're on a budget but definitely nice family establishment. Me and my family sat outside. There was a nice breeze so it was enjoyable. Everything was clean. You will see I included pictures of my drink cups. This isn't to show you what water and tea look like but to show you how clean the cups are. This is ALWAYS the first thing I look at because who wants to drink out of a dirty cup. Shout out to the waitress for never letting my cup get empty. That's a huge bonus for me. read more

We have lived in the area for 25 years and finally did a take out order for pizza. I was hopeful but not impressed at all. We ordered a eggplant pizza and a meatball. The eggplant really didn't have much taste, I had to add salt and Parmesan cheese. Same with the meatball. I don't like to leave bad reviews and I do want to add that many, many friends love Anthony's. Just not for us, but we ARE used to Jersey pizza! read more
