I stopped in this local restaurant due to family recommendations. I'm glad I did as I was not disappointed. The shrimp appetizer was amazing. Such huge shrimp and the sauce kicked butt. Loved it. Clams casino were so tasty!! My chicken parm was good Service was great and everyone as super friendly. Tons of parking. I'll be back read more

I celebrated my birthday here. I had a party of 19 people. It was an excellent experience. I arrived at my reservation time. I waited approximately six minutes before I was escorted to my own event room (the patio). The table was set with the proper amount of place settings. The event room was clean and appeared well maintained. The server, Billy, arrived within two minutes of being seated. He introduced himself and brought menus. He also brought menus with specials. As I was a bit concerned about the standard menu not having enough variety of selections, the specials added items I did like. I had the swordfish special. All food and drink items arrived within a reasonable amount of time. As extra items were needed, they were also brought in a reasonable amount of time. Billy and the rest of the service staff that assisted were attentive, pleasant and friendly. The food was fresh, flavorful, and generously portioned. The prices were reasonable when compared to the quality and portion received. My guests and I thoroughly enjoyed the experience and would recommend and return. Many of my guests are new fans of this restaurant because of this experience. read more

I have mixed feelings about this one...and I wish that I didn't. Because finding a local spot with great food, where you can sit and the bar and feel "right at home" special...is something to cherish! Anthonys is good...not great...while the prices suggest that the experience should be more on the great side! First of all, what is great...is the staff! I go with a buddy and we like to sit at the bar. I've only been a few times and was shocked on my most recent visit... when the bartender remembered what I had ordered 2 months prior! The bartenders are friendly, fun, knowledgeable and attentive. I've always felt like they're glad I'm there...and that is "service 101"! As for the food...I've had great surprises (clams casino, gnocchi special) and disappointments (Chicken Parmesan and a Sausage, broccoli, pasta special) As for the dishes that were good...I'm still thinking about having them again! And for the ones that weren't...I wish I had no memory of them. I'm having a hard time figuring out how an "Italian" restaurant delivers such sub par basic dishes like chicken parm! The chicken, I suspect, was cooked in the deep fryer...pounded too thin...and cooked way too long leaving it tough and dry (almost to the point of not being able to cut it). My penne pasta wasn't drained well on two visits, which resulted in a puddle of water under an already "uninspired" gravy (marinara sauce). Adding salt, red pepper flakes, and cheese to the sauce at the table, was a necessity...not a preference. Penne Alla Vodka is $25, with entree prices increasing from there. Most are mid $30's plus! Add drinks and an appetizer and you'll be well over $100 per person. At $29 for a basic chicken parm...Anthony's should be "The best Italian food" as they stake claim to on their website. But unfortunately, the experience isn't supporting the claim. read more

Always a great meal, reasonably priced, and an inviting atmosphere. Employees are helpful and great.

Very good dinner and super busy! Sean was a fantastic server. Very family-centered ambiance and atmosphere. Hubby had veal oscar and I had the veal gina - both very very good. Could cut the veal with a spoon! Like butter read more

Anthony's - Baked clams - Venues & Event Spaces Near Me - Springfield, Pennsylvania

What do they do well? Everything. Baked clams are awesome and anything in sauce or gravy is always done well.

I actually prefer Anthony's for lunch. There is a better variety of food choices and at more reasonable prices. Dinner is very pricey read more

Spent the day shopping with a friend and she mentioned getting dinner at Anthony's (this was on a Sunday). I am not from the area so I had never heard of it before but I am always ready for Italian food! We got there early for dinner and we didn't have a reservation. They were able to seat us right away. It's a nice place. The service was wonderful. The food was excellent and I would definitely go back! I enjoyed the Caesar salad and the small eggplant Parmesan. It was perfect for me for dinner! read more

Ate there a week ago. The only food edible was the bread. I took my food home and thought I could make it at least decent because I'm a fairly good cook. Nope. My dog didn't mind it though. read more

Where Anthony's absolutely crushes it is the ambiance. It's very clean, it's really nice, the staff are all dressed very well, the tables and chairs are comfy, the lighting is good, the music is spot on... it has the look of a restaurant you'd expect to pay a lot of money to visit, but the prices are honestly pretty reasonable. Maybe a little higher than your standard fare? But certainly within a range you'd expect. Really liked the sesame seed bread and the baked clams. These were my favorite dishes. I liked the chef special of fried tomatoes. I ended up with the seafood dish in the spicy marinara. It was pretty good. It didn't blow my doors off. But it was a massive bowl of food. I had it for dinner and then took the rest home and had it for lunch the next day. Worth it for that reason alone. Service was fine. Maybe a little slow? That's to be expected in a local establishment, I think. Our servers kept getting interrupted by people (regulars?) at the bar. It is what it is. All in all, a solid 4* restaurant. I'll be back. read more

I attended an event at Anthony's in their banquet area. This section was blocked off from the reaturant, had a seperate entrance, and own bartender which was really nice. There was some confusion upon driving here because of the name. Some people said Anthony's, others said Anthony's Lamb. This section of the establishment was beautiful and looked to have been redone! The waitstaff worked very quickly to take orders, get food out, and clear plates. These 2 women worked extremely hard! The table bread was excellent and the crab cakes were very good. The sides with the crab cake dinner were pretty bland unfortunately. There was an open bar with tips recommended but sadly as the dinner went on the bartender almost seemed annoyed. Very much taking his time to get around to your drink order. It was very odd as everyone was generously tipping him! Overall a beautiful space for a private event but I would need an upgrade on food and the bartender if I were to come back again! read more

I recently held a Celebration of Life luncheon at Anthony's. We served crab cakes & chicken Marsala & the food was delicious! Crab cakes were full of crab & deliciously creamy . Patrick was amazing! Extremely accommodating of a few guests with food allergies.Room was pretty ! Service was top notch - Shane did a great job!! Will definitely be back & would recommend for private events!! Thank you Anthony's ! read more

The food was good but the experience was annoying. The ceiling dripped water from the AC ducts over the bar. Special menu had a pork chop for $28 but when the bill came, they charged $39. Said it was a typo but gave us the published price. Finally in big letters on the bill, they added a credit card fee as a separate line item. Build it in to the price instead of telling me they're sticking it to me. read more

Had a great meal last night with a good group. Food and drinks were perfect. We put a special request in for Nicole to be our server who was excellent as usual. We all had a great time. My friends and fam told me we they didnt feel rushed. Looking forward to next visit. Merry Christmas! read more

Lunch. The food was quite bland- pork sandwich. The waitress goofed up our order, interrupted us frequently and yet managed to ignore us when we needed to leave. The receptionist was rude, acting as if we should know what their issues and practices were. Never again. read more

I was there for a funeral luncheon and food was mediocre at best. Bland, no flavor, minimal seasonings, it felt like the food was just thrown together on the plate with minimal effort. My chicken parm literally had only 8 pieces of the pasta, very little sauce with the chicken on top of it. No cheese either. There seemed to be multiple large parties/events going on at once in addition to the restaurant patrons. It was very crowded. Taking on that many customers and events at once compromises the integrity of the food and service. It showed. read more

Food was very good, but the service was unacceptable. I was by myself sitting at the bar, Ryan was the server. I have been there several times with my daughter and her family no problems, she lives very close to this place. I had the feeling because I was alone I was by passed. The other bar server can from the other end of the bar and asked if I was waited on yet. He takes care of the other end and he noticed i was sitting there a while. I ordered the chicken special Ryan never asked if I wanted a side, the special had no sides just chicken, I waited at least 10 mins for my bill and I had to ask for it. I eat out almost every night for dinner, we will not be visiting this restaurant for awhile. Single guest still eat, gives tips and needs proper service. We are not at McDonalds, your prices are on the higher side. Thank you, Terry read more

We went here for the first time since its change from the Porch and it was fine, but a little underwhelming. We had tried to make a reservation but since there didn't seem to be a way online and nobody ever answered the phone when I called over two days, we did have to wait a little bit, but not the end of the world. We all ended up ordering a pasta and meatballs since we were apparently all in the mood for a traditional Sunday meal after a visit to the cemetery, and it was just okay. Me and my dad both ordered the gnocchi with meatballs and were a little disappointed with the gnocchi. They were fine, but a little chewy and the texture wasn't what we were expecting I think. We're definitely more potato gnocchi fans, and this just tasted like thick regular pasta. The meatballs were a little dry, but the leftovers I had today were better after soaking in the sauce. Sauce is very bland, so definitely ask for cheese and red pepper flakes. My mom enjoyed her food more since she's okay with bland. She got the cavatelli and meatballs and she had no complaints. The sangria drink on the cocktail menu was good and refreshing though. The cannoli was pretty good, maybe a touch too sweet but definitely not the worst one I've ever had. We would probably go back after a funeral or something, but we definitely missed the Cascatta cafe after this meal. read more

VERY DISAPPOINTED!! I know food and our food , time wait, miscommunications was mind boggling... we were served app twice after and hour and 1/2 for dinner which was a can of hunts tomato sauce for all 5 of us . Disgraceful! Did not even eat ... never again read more

How does this place have so many good reviews? It's definitely a vibe, but the food is horrific. The worst Italian food I've ever had in my life. Tasteless AF. Terrible Negroni. Server was cool but also extremely disinterested. It's a social spot and lots of people knew each other. Great venue. But the food is so bland. Chicken parm: nice thickness of chicken, well breaded, good portion, tasteless sauce and veg. Vodka penne: overcooked pasta, weirdly creamy but not creamy sauce that seemed watered down, random veggies (why), and just so tasteless and disappointing. Bread: eh. Negroni: was it even a Negroni? Who cares, it took so long and I'm pretty sure it's some kind of booze. The most watered down, blah Negroni of my life. I hate that this is true. I had high hopes. read more

Pros: The bar area where we were originally seated was very loud, but they were pleasant and accommodating in moving us to a quieter table. The young man who filled our water was attentive, and our waitress was competent. Cons: The window wall where we were seated was filthy. My plate of lobster ravioli was not wiped clean and the sauce was congealed, which made it seem like it had been sitting for a while. The lobster was minimal. The cheese on the veal dish was also congealed and too heavy. Maybe they were too busy on a Friday? Even so, we won't be back very soon. read more

I will NEVER recommend again. Our family has used Anthony's, when located in Drexel Hill, and we're always pleased. I referred my sister-in-law to call Anthony's for a funeral luncheon for her mother. When asked how many people, she said it was probably around 30 possibly 40. The host explained to her the room only held 60 and she would be charged for 60. I guess in their new location, the greed really escalated? She was very hurt, hung up the phone, and we are now going to another restaurant who is very accommodating even in their room for a small group. Shame on you Anthony's read more

I was wondering where they moved to! Never been but seen their sign at their old location by Drexeline shopping center. Came here for dinner and we enjoyed ourselves. My daughter loved her kids spaghetti and meatballs and she said the bathroom was very nice and clean. I ordered the chef's special branzino. Dessert my daughter ordered the raspberry donut cheesesteak. Will consider coming back! read more

Had birthday dinner veal picante it was excellent. Another person had wings and clam and a white sauce. It look great, but clams over cook, tough and pasta was undercooked and white sauce, better description should water and olive oil. Say least for premium dollars, owners steal a patron money. Beside the fact nobody knows how set a table. ambience was very good, it's too bad. The Koch staff in the waitstaff are incompetent. It was a shame. Truly management think there for is great but one step from the trash can. I being generous in my comment. read more

Great Food! The spaghetti and crab taste great, the baked clams are amazing. The server we had was sub-par, I don't remember her name, not sure she told us? We had to ask for basic items, it was painful. The competition is fierce... please fix the customer service end of your restaurant. read more

Consistently delicious! Go there more often than any other restaurant. Eggplant Rollatini and Scripppelle soup are favorites.

A friend and I showed up at 4:00 pm. Kathleen was the waitress who only works lunch and we were fortunate to get her. Kathleen will be the reason you'd want to visit. Efficient, personable and helpful at choices. Now let's get to the food. Anytime a restaurant has soft shell crabs that's what I'm getting. This dinner had two medium sized with angel hair pasta in a lemon gravy. Oh, heavenly days this was good. Very buttery with lots of lemon in the sauce. The downside it wasn't filling. Sorry no picture...I loved my food so much those critters were down my throat before I gave taking a picture a thought. $24.00 My friend ordered veal picante served with penne which she said was good. It sounded so appetizing I ordered another one to go for a meal this week. Four nice sized pieces of veal with thick lemon gravy and the penne was good. $23.00 Things to know; Soft shell crabs with angle hair great but not enough to fill you. Chef, I'd recommend you serve this entree with three soft shells. If you change the pasta say, from angle hair to penne, Anthony's has a $6.00 upcharge. Shame on ya Anthony's. I do recommend. Since the turnover from Lamb Tavern (twice) new owners are having a tough time getting solid here. But the ambience is nice, Kathleen remarkable and the new menu has lots of nice choices. read more

I will never go back again. I was totally dissatisfied with my dinner I had Veal Picanti and it was the worst I ever had the sauce was thick and pasty. I wanted capellini instead of penna pasta and they have a charge of $6!!! Ridiculous!! My husbands chicken Parmesan was lukewarm and the sauce was vodka sauce not marinara. The other dinner was spaghettis with clams. The portion was huge with clams that looked like they came out of a can!! No flavor no parsley ugh!!! Plus the bartenders don't know how to make an Expresso martini even a dirty martini don't waste your money!!!! read more

The food was very, very bland... like lacking any trace of seasoning. The service was subpar on a relatively slow night. The ambiance was weird and decor was mismatched. This is definitely a restaurant for the older generation. read more
