Please be careful when eating raw seafood here. I contracted vibrio from this location a few years ago after eating an oyster shooter, and it made me weary of coming back here. To this day, I have never been more sick in my life. I went back recently because I missed the other dishes. Ironically, their steak is still one of my favorite meals there, and I always love their seasonal desserts. I will stick to ordering those, but before the whole vibrio thing, I loved their steamed clams and cioppino. The staff are always friendly, accommodating, and welcoming. The ambience is always great too. read more

I came here with my family after someone mentioned about the three course for 35 deal. For me, I chose the sole almondine, chowder, and I forgot the dessert. The chowder was ok, my preference is usually something a bit thicker. The entree looked like it was defrosted and cooked in the microwave. The flavors were stale and watered down a lot. The shrimp came from another dish that someone at my table couldn't eat, but those shrimps looked so sad. The service was fine and they did their jobs - they were attentive and always served us with great hospitality. Again, I did not expect much from a course meal for that price but I probably wouldn't have it again. read more

We live in Des Moines so Anthony's is a great place to take out of town guests. This was no exception. Service, food and atmosphere are top notch. My wife and I always split a seasonal salad and this one had peaches, raspberries and blue cheese, very good. My seafood fettuccine was loaded with seafood and had a delicious sauce. My wife's halibut was perfectly cooked. The sourdough bread at no extra charge is an everlasting temptation. The 4 of us ate 2 baskets. We have been eating at Anthony's for over 12 years and it is always dependable and consistently great. read more

This is a tough one to write as I really hoped/wanted a better experience. We were a party of 4 and 2 of us got their early. We decided to go into the bar for a drink while waiting for the others, after checking in with the hostesses - less than pleasant. The waiter was less than attentive, also less than pleasant, and though more than 1/2 of the deck was empty, wouldn't let us sit outside for a drink (it was 3 p.m.). Dinner was the clams - which were good. (3.5). The bread and butter (4.5). The wine selection by the glass (3.0). The waitress - nice. It is not a restaurant I would return to however. read more

Such incredible ambience. There's no more beautiful place to have a drink and some mussels. It's peaceful and serene and feels a million miles away. read more

My parents treated me to a birthday dinner in their neighborhood. We dined at 5pm to take advantage of the 3-course meal for $35. Definitely a good call. The restaurant has beautiful views of the water and the marina. Service wasn't particularly warm, but efficient. We wanted to take advantage of the rhubarb seasonal desserts, so appreciated the suggestion to take home the desserts from the price fixe menu. We didn't care for the rhubarb cocktails (much too sweet) but they were taken away without any comment and removed from the final bill. My parents love the chowder, and enjoyed it. I didn't care for the consistency. The shrimp cocktail was a fun retro flavor. Crispy celery, creamy sauce, and the shrimp was cooked well. We all ordered the sole almondine and substituted roasted potatoes for the rice. The potatoes were good, as was the accompanying asparagus. The fish was breaded, and topped with ground almonds which were warmed in butter. The bottom piece of fish was unfortunately soggy, and I prefer an almondine sauce when it's made with sliced almonds. It was a little flat tasting. But overall, the dish was good. The desserts were average. The sugar crust on my father's creme brûlée was too thick and flamed a little too hard. The slump was tasty, but the ratio of filling ro cake was unbalanced (too much cake). The cheesecake was a good texture and the rhubarb sauce was nicely tangy. Overall, a mice evening and worth $35 for a 3-course meal. read more

We drove on out to the Des Moines location as closest to our home. I really wanted those oyster shooters being advertised on Facebook. The dining area and bar was packed but found some spots and hob-nobbed with locals at the bar. Got a drink, oysters for wife and some shooters. The oysters in the shooter were as pictured, plump, tasty with some cocktail sauce - loved them. Was thinking of another round when found wife wasn't so happy with the sad dozen micro-oysters she was serviced. Somehow, I realized the second level resturant was serving better oysters similiar to what was being used in the oyster shooter and we relocated to top level of the resturant. What a difference, different menu, was a fine dining experience - just what we needed so stepped up to the next level. Another dozen oysters, a few more oyster shooters, another round of cocktails, watched the beautiful sunset, fantastic service from the staff, we were totally relaxed and amazingly happy. Definitely will be back and promised my wife 2-3 dozen oysters the next time. read more

Ate lunch mid-week, had Cioppino with Caesar salad and garlic toast. It was light which is just what I was after, if a tad salty but not inedible by a long shot. Hubby had 2 fish tacos with tortilla chips and salsa, started they were good and he'd order again, but he thought they could have had a bit more sauce and the tortillas w/salsa was a pretty tiny portion. Service was friendly and we were able to look out on the water without having to look through people even though we were not at a window table. It was a nice afternoon so we went for a walk all the way up the trail after lunch. The restaurant will validate parking, of course. read more

I attended an event at Anthony's Homeport. The place is huge multi-level. The location is great, especially on a sunny day with the marina in its full glory and the waterfront setting is perfect. The decor is vintage and so is the food. The salad was ok, the salmon was good and the steak was decent. If you are looking for a good place for a palate reset, this is it. They have AYCE tempura battered shrimp Mondays for 30 bucks. Plus other specials almost every day. One standout is the service where the staff takes the time to check on you and make your experience memorable. And easy free parking with validation. What's not to love! read more

My family (4) went there at about 2pm. The view is nice, restaurant is good, two of us had the Cioppino Seafood Soup, it was okay but lack flavor. The other meals were okay. I had a IPA and a. Margarita for Wife that cost $22 ...So glad I don't live in WA.....38 years was enough....The service was better. read more

I spend well over a $1,000.00 a year here even though I dine alone but since I have a boat moored here at the marina I am a frequent flyer, and the food and service is always excellent and Normally I am have outstanding food but tonight I received excessively over cooked garlic shrimp, though the flavor was excellent the shrimp was as rubbery and had the classic over cooked tell tale sign that the meat was stuck hard to the shell at the tail. I brought it up to the waitress and she said hmmmm over cooked, I will mention that, when really my meal should have returned to the kitchen asap. The vegetables and rice were exceptionally done though. The drinks from the bartenders are always tasty so I might not totally disregard this place for a one time over cooked shrimp, but these shrimp should have been sent back to cook so he/ she does not continue this practice. read more

A great place to spend a sunny afternoon on the deck! Great cocktails and service. A dependable outing that doesn't disappoint.

I have usually been very pleased with Anthony's HomePort. Today, I couldn't rate them as well because the kalby chicken bowl had very poor grade chicken. It was so tough and rubbery. I'm not sure what was wrong with it but I couldn't eat it. But rice and salad that came in the bowl was good. For $26 that's pretty high priced . Calamari appetizer was good and the dessert was good but I had to ask for new coffee because the first one was old. I would probably give 3.5 stars today. read more

Laura was our server and she was excellent!!! Thoroughly enjoyed our lunch because of her. The food was great, too!

We go here often, its normally a great place to take out of town guests, but they have gotten very expensive and when we went last night to celebrate a birthday I felt as though I did not get a decent portion for the amount we paid. First of all the server made no offer of bread, so we didn't get any. Then I had my salad which came with the wrong dressing but could never get the attention of anyone to complain and then there was the main course. I ordered Ahi tuna which was a special and pricy at $48. What appeared was a large serving of rice, a few steamed green beans and two very small chunks of tuna. each piece was literally two bites. It was certainly not worth the amount I paid and if that fish is too expensive to give a decent portion, then don't offer it. read more

I am a big fan of Anthony's! The have several locations in the Northwest and usually have amazing waterfront views. They spend a little more on the inside decor and have huge windows that highlight the waterfront views. This location is no different. They also have the buying power to get good deals on fresh seafood. One must order when you come is the clam chowder - one of the best I've had. Today I had wild salmon tacos for lunch and my wife had the blackened rock port fish tacos and went with lettuce instead of tortillas. We had a wonderful lunch and will be back. read more

Came in around 2 pm on a Sunday and got seated promptly for a table for 2. View was nice, even being seated indoors. Server was kind and quick. Food and drinks were great as well. Validated parking was nice and you're able to scan a QR code to pay your bill which was convenient. read more

GOOD VIEW WHEN YOU CAN'T GET INTO WALLY'S - Des Moines has a few good seafood places, and Anthony's is definitely the classy take your date here for a special night option. The service is usually quite nice and if you can get a seat with a view, the marina is great to look at. The food itself is usually quite good but pretty pricey. We've had mixed experiences with a couple items, like the dungeness crab can be a little less than perfectly fresh depending on the season, but overall if you want to have a great experience with company and looking for a high end place where you can spend a bit of coin, Anthony's is a great choice. I like more low key budget options, its the only reason it isn't higher rated for me. Happy eating from John Seeto! read more

The ambience and the food was great definitely highly recommended the seafood pasta. It's big enough to share for two. The service was also great. read more

The views are amazing and the foods are beyond amazing! I always make my way to a location when I come home because it never disappoints!

Outstanding view, impressive service and delicious food. The St Louis style ribs were fall off the bone amazing. The corn bread was very tasty and the complementary veggies were perfectly cooked. The steelhead salad was some of the best salmon I have eaten. Delicious and not at all fishy tasting. The shrimp cocktail was a container full of tiny shrimp. Different than others I have had. The wild Alaska lingcod delicious. Virgin minty pear drink was so refreshing!!! Loved it!! If you need dessert, you can't go wrong with the cherry buckle with ice cream on the warm crust. Amazing. While I normally share my deserts, I did not share this one, which the other 3 people mentioned... ha ha. Go for the amazing view of the snow capped mountains, stay for the food! read more

I am really surprised this place gets such low marks on Yelp! The low marks do not accurately reflect Anthony's and how wonderful it is! We had a such a great time at Anthony's! Anthony's made for the perfect date night. We made an early dinner reservation so we could be sure to order off the sunset menu. We were seated at a table by the window with an excellent view! It took a few minutes for a server to arrive, but once they did our server Patrick was excellent. We turned the 3 course into a 4 course by ordering a salad for $5. The food was wonderful! The clam chowder was excellent. The Caesar salad was great! The almond sole fish was so tender it fell off the fork! We each ordered a desert. The chocolate mousse was outstanding and so good! The crème brûlée was amazing too! Anthony's was really great! The menu is fresh & is based on the season. The sunset dinner is a great value & you can't beat the views! Overall an excellent time & we'll def be back next time we're in town! read more

Downstairs menu has a good selection and 3-6pm daily happy hour food and drink options (SS) inclusive - $2.50 oyster shooters! Upstairs is more boujee and formal with an upscale menu. Views and service is what you would expect. Perfect place for casual downstairs no reservations or upstairs reservations and entertaining out of town guests. Highly recommended - both options in one restaurant. read more

1 star was because of the server. Food was great. Our server, ISABELLE, sucked!! Didn't get acknowledged for a good 20min, she never checked in on us, had to go find her to pay.....which we almost just walked out on. I'd def go back but if she is your server, I'd go somewhere else!! read more

Just tried to come here with my family of 8 and had the absolute worst experience that left a terrible taste in my mouth for any of the Anthony's franchise. After 45 minutes of patiently waiting at our table just to order drinks we left. Our baby was so upset and hungry and agitated even with the snacks we brought so we decided to go somewhere else. We even tried getting our waitress attention and telling other waitresses we were ready to order just drinks no one came. I'm very disappointed. read more

Came for brunch, they serve free blueberry coffee cake with your meal and I would come back just for it.

The service was absolutely wonderful. We had salmon. One burger and 3 of us had the fish and chips. I like salmon this way. We sat downstairs which is more casual than upstairs. read more

We're big fan of the Anthony's franchise and this is by far the BEST one!!! Our food was very unique and had flavors we've never experienced before. The fish was absolutely fresh. The salmon cakes and prawns were to die for. Don't even get my started on the crab dip! Truly the best I've ever had. The atmosphere is so welcoming and nice. The views are beautiful of the capital and sound. We had the most amazing waitress, Beth. Highly recommend this place. read more

Very nice and it feels like a proper Pacific Northwest experience. Great selection in the menu but don't lock down your choice until you read the specials of the day! Kudos for nice Mocktails served in generous pint glasses! The steamed Manila clams was my favorite and the sole almondine was unfortunately deep fried to an indistinguishable recognition. read more

Went to have a lunch celebration with my wife Teresa for Mother's day. Everything was fantastic! We both had the Clam Chowder and added fresh Oregon Bay Shrimp and needless to say it was fantastic, so creamy and smooth. Teresa had the silver Sound with rice pilaf in fresh asparagus. She said it was fantastic as well. Everything was brought to our table piping hot so fresh. Needless to say the ambiance The view is spectacular from the seconds story looking at the harbor and all the sailboats that I would have liked to been out on today. If I could say anything negative I would say. I wish they had offered a steak for lunch, but you can always ask for the dinner menu. We were excited to see and we'll return for the three-course meal they offer for $35! Unbelievable value! Thank you Anthony's and our server for taking such good care of us. read more

We had lunch here on March 27. The atmosphere is great and the view is spectacular. I ordered the open-faced salmon sandwich but was brought salmon on rice with soggy vegetables. I brought this to the waiter's attention, but decided to go ahead and eat it as I was hungry and didn't feel like waiting for it to be corrected. This is the second time this has happened in the last 6 months. I wasn't offered an apology or any compensation which was really a poor display of service. I didn't want to make a big deal about it in front of my lunch date so I just let it go, but pretty disappointed to pay $28 for a dish I didn't even order! Probably won't be returning. read more

What a nice view. Not stunning but nice view of Puget Sound for winter. Food was very tasty but maybe needed more crab in the crab and shrimp toasts. Still delicious. Clam chowder was excellent! Excellent ambiance with sound control. For hearing impaired the noise absorption was much appreciated. Great parking too. Smoked salmon fettuccini was spectacular. Rock fish tacos as well were much appreciated. Slaw with ginger was out of this world. I'd go again just for that. Great service too.thank you, Thaddeus! read more

Beautiful view! We visited for lunch. If you park in their lot they give you a pass to park for free. We ended up street parking since it wasn't busy on a Saturday morning. The upper part of the restaurant was open for lunch and we had a nice view of the water and marina area. They deliver warm sourdough bread and butter to your table. I ordered a shrimp salad and clam chowder. Both were very good. read more

I go to this place all the time because it is halfway between where my friend lives and I live so it's a good spot to meet up. They just updated their menu, which was a nice change since there was more salad and appetizer options that looked healthier and less deep-fried. We had a wonderful server and the view is always spectacular. We had the tomato salad and a wild salmon salad, both of which were very good. I am giving only three stars because of the amount of fruit flies that were around our table during our meal. This type of restaurant really should not have an issue like that. We were swatting them away and it became quite distracting after a while. I hope they can get it cleaned up so that it feels up to par with the rest of the establishment. read more
