One visit to Anthony’s creative Italian cuisine & you will be hooked. As you walk into one of three beautifully redesigned dinning rooms, in a building that dates back to the 1930’s, you will smell the aromas of the freshest ingredients and spices, which are used to create the unique menu. This coupled with the warm earth tones & natural lighting from the oversized windows makes dining here a truly special experience. Outdoor café dinning when weather permits adds to the romantic ambience.As you are escorted to your table you can’t help but notice the beautifully crafted temperature controlled oak wine cabinet which houses up to 200 bottles of wine. Since the restaurant is a BYOB, the owners wanted to provide customers with a place to store their favorite wines so they are readily available each time they visit. Anthony’s also offers the use of any of their dinning rooms for private events.

    Visiting our daughter in Philadelphia, we ate here on Christmas Day and had the best experience. We were seated prompted at our reserved time and the staff was amazing and so welcoming. The food was delicious from soup and salad to entrees to dessert. We will definitely be back!

    We went on Christmas Eve for drinks at the bar with friends and then a 5 course prix fixe dinner for 2. Both experiences were fabulous. Quality bartender and the table service team was top notch: professionally urgent, menu advice, flexible to small adjustments, on top of clearing and packaging to go, no time holes in waiting for food or drinks, EXCELLENT FOOD. I am embarrassed I lived in Philly for 21 years before coming here. I have been missing out. Will definitely be back.

    This is a newer dining space at the Bellevue Hotel. Space is small with tables only going down one wall. Decor is very pretty and there is a small bar. Service was excellent, not a large selection of food choices for an entree. I had salmon, my husband had a steak, both were cooked well and very good. They add an 18% gratuity to the bill. We also ate there for breakfast it was a buffet for $42 a person, again service was excellent but nothing special about the food, just normal breakfast fare.
