Anthony's HomePort Kirkland — Restaurant in Kirkland

Amazingly poor - We came to use a "dinner for two" gift certificate between 3 family members. The GC was from an incredibly horrible anniversary experience we had 1 year ago on a $170 bill. We left it right to the last minute but we got dressed up and made a reservation. We arrived, got a nice corner table overlooking the marina. We met our server and told her that we were using a GC and discussed the experience we had last time. We prefer to come right out so we set expectations. Our server was very understanding and looked forward to serving us and ensuring we had a great experience.

Our server explained the GC details and exceptions and offered some suggestions. We decided that we would go all in and spoil ourselves. We ordered 2 appetizers, steak and lobster for 2 of us as well as drinks etc. The server submitted our order then came back to tell us that she took the liberty of upgrading our meal to tenderloin and large lobster from sirloin and small lobster serving. In hindsight i assume this was to increase the bill total for the tip. She took care of this before asking but it was covered in our GC so we were thumbs up!

Our meals arrive, and it appears there was a mix up as the server mentioned the kitchen mixed up. We received two small lobster tails each and a nice piece of tenderloin. The steak was nice the lobster was slightly overcooked but generally the taste was good. We all had a couple martinis and a dessert that we shared.

The bill finally arrived and we see that one lobster meal was comped and the other fish meal comped. Left on the bill was the large tenderloin and lobster which was a $93 entree. We shook our heads this was an entree that we didn't order and did not expect to pay. This left us with a bill over $200 including our dinner for two GC (so dinner for one and drinks). The server delivered our bill with the comments well at least they took something off like she knew something was off. After escalating to the manger they did make it right after explaining that we did not order the $93 dollar entree which was not even on the menu so we shouldn't have to pay for it. We certainly didn't want to be the typical complainers but feels like maybe we were. I am just amazed after tall the discussions we had about our last experience and how we were looking forward to trying again and spoiling our selves and in turn the server that we didn't get great service or good experience again.

I feel that this was generally a so so experience and way overpriced even with a gift certificate. Anthony's seems to have the market on marina dining and as a boat owner we see them at every marina we visit pretty much. I don't think we will be...

If you're craving a beautiful waterfront dining experience with excellent service and food that mostly delivers the goods, Anthony’s HomePort Kirkland is the place to be. Nestled right on the marina, this spot offers unmatched ambiance, especially during golden hour, when the sun spills across the boats and the room glows like something out of a postcard.

Let’s dive into the meal: I went for what can best be described as a surf & turf twist—a steak paired with scallops and finished with garlic croutons. The scallops themselves were, unfortunately, a little on the dry and underwhelming side, but the garlic crouton-topped scallops? Next-level. Flavorful, buttery, and perfectly balanced. They totally redeemed the plate.

The dish came with roasted potatoes and fresh snap peas, a delightful nod to seasonality. The steak was cooked medium, just as I asked, and was beautifully seasoned with herbs and a rich butter finish that brought it all together.

To drink, I had the Bumbleberry Margarita, and let me just say—WOW. Fruity, balanced, not too sweet, and just the right touch of tartness. I'd go back just for that drink alone.

For dessert, the crème brûlée was the grand finale: a perfect crackle on top with that velvety smooth custard underneath. Rich, satisfying, and absolutely worth every bite.

And I can’t wrap this up without mentioning Kayleen, who was absolutely stellar. Friendly, attentive, and warm—she made sure I had everything I needed without ever being overbearing. Truly top-tier service.

Final thoughts? Whether you’ve just wrapped a long workday(like I), or you're celebrating something special with friends and family, Anthony’s offers the perfect mix of views, vibes, and quality. The experience as a whole is...

I visited this place for the first time on a very busy Saturday dinner hour this past weekend. The restaurant was packed, and although we had reservations, it took quite a while to be seated. The restaurant was dark and somewhat cavernous. Got the impression that the restaurant was packed with tables as tightly as possible. Our four top was wedged in a space that required Tetris maneuvers to enter and leave the seating area.

The waitress was young, energetic, and attentive and seemed experienced but also overwhelmed, probably with the number of people in her section. For example, I didn't see any evidence of expediters or bussers and the servers had to do everything themselves. We ordered our food quickly to save the server trips to our table. Our food came out relatively quickly, but she made a mistake on one of the entree orders and that created a 30 minute delay for the correct dish.

We ordered an oyster on the half shell dish, plated on a bed of ice. The oyster seemed surprisingly fresh, however, there were some shell fragments in one of the pieces I was eating.

Some positive notes: The server was graceful in serving and pouring wine. The wine I ordered was quite high quality. One in our party had a seasonal blackberry mojito that looks delicious. The salmon that I ordered was well prepared, but there was a very tiny amount of vegetables as a side that I found odd. For dessert, I had the burnt cream.

I don't think I would want to return on a typically crowded night. In order to test the food and atmosphere, I would recommend coming for breakfast or earlier in the day...
