| - Little Anthony's is an upscale looking Italian restaurant in the heart of the Financial District. I literally work beside it at an office building and when my friend from my old team wanted to meet up for dinner, craving for some Italian food, we decided to come here because it was close and looked beautiful from the outside.
On a Friday night at 630pm, no reservation was required. We were greeted and seated right away when we walked in. First impression of the restaurant was, it looked very upscale, very nice decor and would be a perfect place for dates!
I ordered the Tagliatelle alla Bolognese, the safest but yet the hardest Italian pasta to perfect. My friend ordered the Salmone Al Forno. My pasta was $20 for the main course size, which when it came, to me wasn't that big, taste wise, it was okay, the meat sauce was normal, nothing too outstanding. I think Terroni makes the better Bolognese pasta and it is cheaper too! Definitely didn't think it was worth $20. The salmon presentation was great, but my friend did mention it was a little too oily. For $20 a pasta, there is a lot of options within the area.
We also ordered the Dark Chocolate Budino to share. The name of the dessert is misleading, it says Dark Chocolate, but they actually use Milk Chocolate, thus I thought it was a little too sweet. However, the presentation of the dessert was cute.
Overall, a 3 star Italian restaurant. I would recommend just walking 10 minutes further to Terroni and have their pasta there instead.
