    The food was truly delicious. Mother's Day brunch includes blueberry coffee cake which is served warm. Only 4 stars because the service was just okay. I expect that after six months or so they will have their post pandemic systems and staffing worked out. I'll post again next visit. The gluten free fried oysters are totally worth my time spent with an empty coffee cup.

    Fantastic restaurant, started off with having cocktails while we waited, very friendly and attentive service. Our waitress was very helpful in choosing our meal and the suitable wine. The meal was delicious … sea food of course, never eaten better. I highly recommend Anthony’s. The only negative thing was the noise, it was quite busy when we arrived and loud but as the evening commenced and the guests left it became quieter …A great evening!

    Traditional style seafood restaurant with fantastic view! All the seafood we tried…oysters, mussels, prawns, and sable fish were excellent! They were all fresh and cooked right. We also tried a stake and it was very good as well. They also came in generous portion sizes and the foods in general were rich and heavy. You need to go easy on cocktails and bread if you want to last till their desserts menu!

    I am here for work and trying to get as much local seafood as possible. I had the clam chowder and the clams and mussels for lunch. It was so good I decided to come back for dinner to try the cioppino. I was freaking out because it wasn’t on the dinner menu. The server checked with the kitchen and they said they could do it. I am sooo glad they did. It was absolutely Outstanding! I also had the smoked salmon dip at the bar while I waited for my table. It was great. Local wines, local seafood, great service, great view. I would come back here every week if I lived here.

    We came here for a birthday celebration lunch. The place has a nice ambience where you have a beautiful view of the marina wherever you sit. They offer an assortment of seafoods, salads, soups, burgers, & sandwiches. We both had the squid calamari as starters. It was tasty with a light batter. We both chose the Cioppino & Caesar. Cioppino was a soup bowl size & flavorful. A bit on the salty side. Tasty Caesar salad. They offered a complimentary chocolate sundae for the birthday girl which was a nice surprise. Our server was friendly & attentive. Food is similar to the other chain restaurants. There’s complimentary parking out front. A great venue to celebrate any occasion. They even offered a holidays menu of festive desserts & drinks. If you love seafood, this is the place to go.

    If you’ve been to one Anthony’s, you’ve been to them all. Most locations are right on the water and have amazing views. The Bellingham location is no different. There are two Anthony’s located at the marina at Squalicum Harbor (Anthony’s and Anthony’s Hearthfire), this review is for the Anthony’s. On our most recent visit, I ordered the tempura green beans for an appetizer (so good) and the surf and turf. We made a reservation, which was a good idea. We overheard the wait time on a Friday evening at 6 was almost an hour without a reservation. There is outdoor patio seating, which is perfect for good weather. Also, bar seating inside (first come). The service has always been good at this location.

    Oh my! What a treat. We made 7pm reservations and splurged on the mahi roll, mahi dinner plate, rock fish and clam chowder. The roll sat on top of a garlic butter sauce that was also delicious to dip our complimentary bread in. It was the incredible. The cuts were fresh and perfectly cooked rare. The service was great, along with the view of the boats and water. We finished off with a melting chocolate cake...

    Hubby and I celebrated my birthday earlier this month here for our first visit and it was 5*!!! We made a reservation, strongly suggest as they get busy. We arrived early to catch sunset on the water and then got an amazing table right by the window to enjoy more water views! Service was great! Food was great! Can't wait to go back!!!

    Location, location, location -- and atmosphere. LOVE this place. Why 4 stars? Because the value (food, servings, quality, price) aren't quite equal to 5 stars in my rule book. That doesn't mean it's not good. The food is good, drinks are good, deserts are good, service is good -- prices very high for what it is. This is no Palisades but they price out like it. Again -- you will have a good time, it's a GREAT atmosphere, just have an extra drink before you pay the bill :)

    The staff was very friendly and accommodating, and the view is gorgeous. The food was good to excellent, so while nothing was bad it was a bit inconsistent for the price point. For example, I ordered the sockeye salmon, which was great, but the accompanying mashed potatoes were dry and needed more flavor. They were also out of two menu items when we started ordering.

    Excellent service. nice atmosphere. best steak and seafood. Whenever we're in Bellingham on vacation it is a must to eat dinner at Anthony's.

  • 5/5 Maling S. 1 year ago on Google
    We attempted to dine in without a reservation but we didn't want to wait 45 mins. One month later we decided to visit Bellingham again and made sure to make a reservation on OpenTable. I can now see why Anthony's Restaurant is so busy and popular. The location is stunning at Squalicum Harbour. We were able to watch the sunset during our dinner. After bringing our drinks the server brought bread and butter before bringing out our entrees. We ordered: - Rock fish with asparagus and rice - Salmon Fettuccine - 4 pieces of crispy Panko Alaska true cod n' chips We throughly enjoyed our entrees. The service was outstanding and we left content and satisfied.

    Pretty solid seafood and steak. Great view of the marina and great waiter and staff. Seemed to be missing something for the price but "solid" is how I would describe it. My first visit the other day but I'm sure we will stop by sometime in the future

    I really enjoy visiting Anthony's. I am from the Chicago area, and every time I am in the neighborhood, I make it a point to grab a bite and sometimes a brew. The food is great, it is reasonably priced, and the waitstaff is always on point. If you haven't been here, you should make it your mission to give it a try!

  • 5/5 Lorna F. 1 year ago on Google
    Wonderful place, definitely a five-star restaurant. The wait staff were very attentive even with reservations only available. We had the black cod paired with a mango typed pilaf. We also had the Valentine's for two, brut, and oysters in half shell. Everything was perfect.

  • 5/5 David R. 8 months ago on Google
    The food and service was excellent. The crabcakes are highly recommended, all meat no shell. The halibut was fresh and delicious with the beurre blanc.

  • 5/5 david s. 2 years ago on Google
    Very clean. Food was amazing. Our group ordered the Calamari, Rockfish, fried halibut with chips, and 1 dozen oysters on the half shell. The Calamari was amazing. It took the top spot for my best tasting Calamari. The fried items were perfectly battered. All dipping sauces were amazing. Can be a bit pricey but after tasting everything we quickly saw why the price was what it was. The view is also great. Service was also very very good. Will go again very soon

    Let me start by saying that I don't care for fish, but damn if their fish and chips weren't the best I've ever had. I make a point of trying my partners food every time he orders fish just to see if I will like it, and I was so glad I did this time!!! I will literally be back just for that! I had the steak, which was also really yummy, just not quite as good. I will say, though, that the side dishes could use a little work and some more flavor. They were alright but should have been better for that price. The bailey's chocolate moose was really good too! Fantastic service as well 👏 👍

    I have Alpha-gal syndrome and I am highly allergic to mammals and mammal byproducts. Our server was so kind and so patient about checking with the kitchen to make sure they know I could not have anything cooked in butter and could not eat anything containing dairy. This restaurant exceeded all of my hopes for being able to come to the PNW and have great seafood! Thank you!

    We had a great lunch on a Saturday day trip. The Alaska Halibut and fries, yes it also came with a great salad. The service was good and quick and the food was exactly what we needed.
