First I want to start with, I & My family have been long time patrons of Anthony's and we have never had any issues with there service. It is always Fresh and Tastes great every time we go there. My family and I primarily went to the Kirkland, and the former Seattle Anthony's at Shilshole. This evening 12/08/2023 My partner and I went to Everett Anthony's for our two year anniversary since I live close by. She and I were seated right away. Our server Garth was with us shortly after we were seated, Our server was excellent, Attentive, Polite and Friendly. He listened to our orders and followed through with our wants and needs. Perfect Service Garth, Thank you so much for a wonderful dinner service. We decided that since it was a special occasion that we would have a special dinner not just because it was our 2 year anniversary but also because we have had a very tough year. With that said we decided to order the the Lobster Dinner. It arrived hot. Not one part of our service was hot food cold or cold food warm. Everything about our food was prepared to perfection. and Garth made it that much better with prompt service with a smile.

Now by no fault of the kitchen or any of the staff, both our lobster were in Molt. This is the fault of the fisherman and processing processes They should have caught the molt as they came out of the trap and thrown back or at the very least during processing. Regardless This by no means was it the fault of Anthony's or their staff. If you know anything about lobster, it is very hard to detect once the lobster has been processed and shipped to market. It is virtually undetectable until one bites into it.

Any how What happened next was totally surprising and blew me out of the water. First I have never in over 30 years had an issue with Anthony's there service and attention to detail has always been bar none. This is the first time an issue has ever come up. They immediately took our lobster away and threw it out. They took the time to look at the lobster and inspected it. the head chef on duty personally went in to the cooler and found two absolutely beautiful lobster tails and prepared them to perfection. Not only that but they came out with two new full plates even though we had already eaten the Vegies and other sides which I must say were Fresh and prepared to perfection. Then comes time to get the Check. Expecting to pay for the dinner service I found that the meal was comped except our appetizer and drinks. WTH This is not right But according to the server It was their policy. Hey we had a perfect meal and I would have been more than happy to pay for it. NOPE Our Policy is to comp the meal.

OMG The customer service is beyond reproach. Better than Palisades, Better than Canlis, Better than any 5 star dining I have ever had the opportunity to dine at. If I could rate more than 5 stars I would because it was defiantly 1000 Star Service tonight. Also on a side note these other so called 5 stars restaurants the staff always seem a bit on the stuffy attitude to me. Not at Anthony's. Anthony's staff treat their guests like family. Maybe that is why I keep coming back. Anthony's you've had me for 30 years, fair warning you will have me for another 30. Thank you for providing me and my Girlfriend such a wonderful meal service. BTW Did I mention the remake of the Lobster was perfect. Firm and melted in our mouth. Bravo Anthony's Well done.
