Amazing!ask for Kimberly! She is the best! Best service, food and ambiance! Piano bar. Great for couples, girls night out or a family gathering. read more

If the restaurant is going to be high end - it should be at the minimal - well...good. It started off as a hit then ... well... down hill from there. Ambience 5 Piano atmosphere 5 Decor 4 Drinks extremely lacking- no measurements used, inconsistent, and just lacking 2 Food can be really good. Calamari has changed twice. Excellent in the beginning, but now a disguise of fried thin zucchini slivers and disguised as calamari. SMH. The type of client that will visit a higher caliber restaurant recognizes this!! The entree of chicken piccata was delicious but no pasta included. Not even available upon request. Please don't change the Lamb entree. EXCELLENT! Just friendly advice. read more

Absolutely everything! Service by Kimberly was outstanding and added so much to our dining experience. Followed her recommendations and they were spot on. One of the best and most memorable meals I've enjoyed in a long time!! read more

No kids menu but two sides worked- noodles with Parmesan and meatballs. The Italian salad was enough for four. The veal Parmesan was the best. Great atmosphere. Enjoyed the piano music after a long day at the waterpark. read more

Anthony's Ristorante - The fried oysters were insanely good! Yum!!!! - Italian Near Me - Bay St. Louis, Mississippi

Fine dining at its finest! Anthony's is a lovely Italian restaurant in the heart of BSL. The building is beautiful from the outside, in. I loved the sleek designs and the dark green accents. We were escorted to the upstairs dining room. It was cozy and quiet and boasted nice views of the Gulf. They have plenty of outside and inside seating options for groups of many sizes. I tried a glass a wine and my companion went with the winter old fashioned. For our entrees I had the pesto penne which was delectable and he had the lasagna which was delicious as well. The portions were perfect. Service was excellent. We wanted for nothing during our visit. I would say this is on the pricier end so we won't be coming regularly but it will be great for special occasions. read more

Food is good. Drinks are expensive but good. It is so loud. I could not hear my husband that was sitting right next to me.

The food and service was excellent but be prepared to spend $100 per person. I have never ordered veal parm that did not include pasta......until now. A side order of pasta is $16. We ordered the oyster appetizer and it was outstanding. The watermelon, tomato and crab salad also was awesome. It's a nice place to visit occasionally for a special birthday or anniversary. Downstairs has a great vibe but is loud. Upstairs is also nice and is not so noisy. read more

Beautiful restaurant with an incredible atmosphere and a true taste of Italy. Every dish was authentic, fresh, and full of flavor. The attention to detail, from the food to the ambiance, creates a wonderful dining experience. This is a fantastic addition to downtown Bay St. Louis. read more

My husband and I were both so excited about d to hear about an Italian restaurant coming to the area. We had heard some really good things about Anthony's so we were both excited to try it for our 24 wedding anniversary dinner. We arrived about 10 minutes before our reservation and walked into a crowded but well decorated entrance. The hostess was less than super-friendly, she seemed a bit put off that she needed to look up a reservation and check to see if tables were ready. She sat us a a small 2-top at the entrance while she checked on our table. My husband had requested an upstairs outside table when he made the reservation. We waited about 15 minutes before they finally took us upstairs. They did not seat us where he requested, but put us at a very small bistro table against a wall across from the bar. It was fine, but not the ambiance he was hoping for. Food was just ok, my husband is a bit of a foodie so he was not impressed at all and actually disappointed in our meals. Cocktails were good and the Tiramisu for dessert was great. We decided that the next visit might just be for cocktails and dessert only... if we make it back. read more

Everything here is wonderful! The food, the service, and ahhhh the Specials! Whether you're sitting at the bar listening to the piano player croon or up on the second deck inside or weather permitting, outside. read more

Anthony's is a great local spot in Bay St. Louis with delicious italian scratch food and a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere once you're seated. The menu offers a really nice mix of coastal favorites and Southern comfort dishes, and everything we ordered was fresh and well-prepared. The bartenders deserve a special shoutout -- they are friendly, skilled, and the cocktails are absolute perfection. If you enjoy a well-crafted drink, the bar here is worth stopping in for on its own. However, the first interaction at the host stand could definitely be improved. The person managing the front (manager or host) tends to come across as not very friendly or accommodating, and that unfortunately sets a tone that doesn't match the vibe the rest of the team works hard to create. With a warmer welcome at the door, Anthony's could easily be a full 5-star experience. That said, once you're seated or at the bar -- the food, drinks, and service are excellent, and we will absolutely be back. read more

The food here was excellent, fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The service was also quick, kind, and very attentive.. there seemed to be plenty of staff for the small number of guests, which made the experience smooth. The restaurant itself is very clean and absolutely beautiful inside, with a great atmosphere that feels both upscale and welcoming. The only downside was parking. There was an event nearby, and the restaurant didn't have any parking reserved for guests, so we had to walk about half a mile to get there. It's definitely on the pricey side, but the food quality made it worth it. My mojito was $16.. expensive, but really good! Overall, a great dining experience once we got inside. I'd definitely go back, but I hope they consider better parking options for guests in the future. read more

Ate here last night and was very pleasantly surprised. Had the Caesar and lobster arancini. Both were fabulous. Love that we have another upscale spot in BSL. Well done. read more

The way the food is described on the menu sounds nice, looks nice, but has very little flavor and you're spending that kind of money, you want the food to taste good, especially if it's Italian. Very average at best. read more

5/5 A wonderful new Italian gem in Bay St. Louis! The osso buco was unbelievably tender and flavorful, and the homemade meatballs were just like Sunday dinner at Nonna's. The atmosphere is upbeat downstairs or more cozy upstairs. The owner couldn't be more personable--she makes you feel like an old friend the minute you walk in. Excellent food, great wine, and genuine hospitality. This place is a must-try! read more

Wow, what a lovely dining experience! The knowledge and attentiveness of the staff was incredible. Our server guided us through our dining experience and everyone loved their dishes. We had the sea bass, lasagne, rigatoni, mussels and meatballs and all were rich in flavor. Drinks were spot on! I'd say this is the new fine dining spot in Bay St Louis! Everyone left with full bellies and satisfied hearts! read more

Great food. Rather pretentious. Too crowded and rather noise for the piano/singer to be appreciated. Not as good as they think they are. read more

Great restaurant with great food. We ordered bread as appetizers and two Sazeracs. Both were great. For dinner, we ordered two Cesar salads and the meatball appetizer. Caesar salad was delicious. Nothing like I have had before. Meatballs were good. Lots of cheese and tomato sauce. We would definitely come back. Not a no go but the tables are too small for all the food and drinks. Hard to eat and balance at the same time. Wait staff was friendly and attentive! read more

I can not say enough about this gem of a restaurant! The staff are one of a kind. From the bar tenders care and expertise to the lovely waitstaff and host staff.... Then the food, just amazing. The lasagna was amazing, and the food I saw circulating, perfecto! read more

Anthony's Ristorante - Beautiful atmosphere - Italian Near Me - Bay St. Louis, Mississippi

In addition to my review below, I now realize I forgot to mention one of the other great pleasures of the evening. After dinner we had a few drinks in the bar. ( you know "few "means different things to different people. However, we were WALKING two blocks back to hotel. ) The pianist was fantastic!! Great personality and a great pianist. He knew almost every song we asked for and we asked for a lot of songs.The ones he didn't know he figured out quickly and did a great job. We were just passing through; if we lived there we would go there all the time. He does ALL kinds of music, but, if this is to your liking, request Mack the Knife. It could not have been more enjoyable read more

Anthony's Ristorante in Bay St. Louis is an absolute gem. The atmosphere, service, and food are all five stars. Our waitress, Deleah was attentive, knowledgeable, and had great recommendations , she even knew every detail about the cocktails. I had the ossobuco, and my husband had the 8 ounce filet both were incredible. But the real star of the show was the lobster fried risotto. That was some next-level stuff. We were lucky to snag a table for two last minute, so definitely make reservations if you plan to go. It's so nice to have a new upscale restaurant in the Bay. We'll definitely be back! read more

Reservation made well in advance for a special occasion and given a tiny table with no option for improved seating. However, the service was impeccable with Geri (spelling)? as our waitress and the food was outstanding! The cocktails were done perfectly. My husband said the veal parmigiana was the best he has ever had! The pistachio cheesecake was fabulous! read more

Ambiance was wonderful!!! The food was great, sea bass was amazing Service spot on Loved the bar, with the piano player!!!! read more

Everything from the atmosphere to the service to the drinks to the food were all top notch. I would say one of the top 5 Italian restaurants we have ever been to. The staff was professional and courteous. The food was presented well and they provided dishes served traditionally different. We will definitely come back to Bay St, Louis just to eat here again. Definitely recommend the smoked old fashion. One of the best I have had. The pistachio cheese cake was very fluffy and tasty. read more

Food and service were fantastic. My only critique would be I wish there were more meat dishes because my husband won't order ANY dish that doesn't have meat in it so his menu selection is relatively limited. read more

Beautiful establishment. Underwhelmed at the dishes for the price...$30 pasta with no protein is high. Server was personable but missed the mark. Tried to order the pesto penne but they were out. Ordered a second round of drinks but waiter forgot to put it in. Never got an itemized bill at the end which was very odd. Biggest frustration was having a reservation for 5 ppl - had to wait 15 mins to be seated and then were sat at a table for 4. They brought extra dinnerware but we were crammed at the table. Not sure I would return for the price and less than welcoming experience. read more

Great new BSL Restruant. Amazing, tasty Italian food Upscale, and interesting menu Service fine Noisy as expected Will be back read more

Loved it Sat at bar looking forward to dinner on the terrace. Service was excellent and it was only a few months open

We just drove in from New Orleans because we love spending time in Bay St. louis. We love the Thorny Oyster at the Pearl but thought we would try something different. We politely opened the door to Anthony's and asked if we could take a peep inside - curious - is it casual or fancy? atmosphere? etc The lady at the front responded with 'I can take a reservation.' We reiterated that we just wanted to take a very quick peep. She said 'I can give you a menu.' We decided Anthony's is not for us. Anne and Skip read more

Service was okay. Got the chicken piccata at around $30 it was another $14 to get it with pasta. The Rigatoni alla Vodka was around $36, can't remember exactly, looks like they forgot to add the crabmeat. Around the time our food was out the owner was walking around and stopped by to check on us, we mentioned the crabmeat and she got mad and was yelling about the cost of crabmeat. She really shouldn't be asking if she can't handle a negative comment. We were told about the amaretto cheesecake, but was more of a cake not cheesecake. The place looks nice but not sure it was worth the money. read more

We have been twice and both times the food was delicious! The restaurant is beautiful! We started with a drink at the bar and then moved to our table. Our waiter Kimberly was attentive and her service was very friendly. We didn't wait long for our food and we are definitely going back. It's a nice classy add to the downtown area. read more

Highly recommend this restaurant! Excellent cocktails, small but well curated wine list and the food is simply amazing. Amazing night with my family. A must try if you are in BSL read more

Everything was incredible from the service to the food to the drinks to the atmosphere.

Nonna made the gravy for the Lasagna. The chef marinaded the shallots to have a candy like finish. My wife guarded her squid ink pasta from my fork like a dog guarding its favorite bone. Bouzgee. I felt like the Fresh Prince of Belair. read more

I was disappointed with the acoustics. The piano was too loud to converse. We sat downstairs by the stairs and it sounded like someone was falling down the stairs. It was employees running up and down the stairs with food. I thought the Italian salad was one of the best salads I've had in a long time. The bread was delicious but I don't like paying for bread. We shared Veal Parmesan, but it's a huge piece of bone-in meat with a lot of fat and no pasta for $54. It wasn't even seasoned. We had to order pasta separately and wait for it. The pasta was good though. I had to send my drink back because it was lacking an important ingredient. It was fine once it came back correctly. The acoustics can't be fixed but hopefully the food will get better!!! read more

What a true blessing to Bay St. Louis !! I said it to bar listening to the piano player with a great glass of Pinot Grigio and decided to have dinner. Jesse was my server and she was absolutely amazing. Actually these entire staff was amazing as a team with amazing attitudes and professionalism. I ordered the Cod with a Caesar salad and it was absolutely delicious. I highly recommend Anthony's and I definitely plan to go back. read more

food is 5 stars, no doubt. The way that nepo baby runs the kitchen and speaks to people, this place won't last a year. He will run off all good workers and customers like he already has. It's a shame. The place is beautiful, delicious, and so well decorated. I wouldn't give another penny to that entitled, rude, ungrateful family, but it was worth giving it a shot. read more
