This is a tale of two restaurants. As one might when celebrating a birthday, I ate out twice in one day. At lunch, the food was delicious and the service was impeccable, but not at all stuffy. Dinner was another story. While Anthony's had promise, my hopes that we would be the exception to what seems to be their rule of slow service were quickly dashed - there were several unexplained 20 minute lulls in our meal, where no staff were standing around but nothing was happening. For the same price at lunch, we left feeling like it was a special meal that was a good value. Dinner at Anthony's left me wishing I had taken the cautions regarding slow service in other reviews more seriously. Given the number of restaurants in Little Italy, I'm surprised they're not forced to improve; you can't make a living on good spaghetti and meatballs alone.
