"This review is for people who are looking for venues to hold special events. Although Anthony's seems like a nice place for a casual outing my experience holding a private event felt more like a mugging. The food was good and the service was good, but I am convinced that the owner manipulated the private dining prices to take advantage of my relatively high budget for dinners. Because of my party size and the fact that the owner did not mention a prefixe menu, I planned on allowing my guests to order a la carte. We were told to choose entrées that were not on the menu and without any written price. I asked the server twice throughout the evening if I was near my budget and twice she reassured me that I was nowhere even close. Then at the end of the evening the owner disappears for almost 20 minutes to calculate the bill that conveniently pushed close to my per person maximum. He also did not tell me beforehand that there would be a charge if my party was less than 10 (I had 4 people not show up out of 10) and a $65 charge for the screen. I have held private dinners at many restaurants and never in my career have I run up a bill for $1000 for 6 people even with a room charge and screen rental. If you plan on doing an event at Anthony's, make sure you have a contract in writing and the prefixe menu upfront with the prices. The owner seemed more interested in making a quick buck rather than for any repeat business. So simply put, I will plan on taking my events elsewhere, I urge you to do the same."

"my husband surprises me and made reservations here for us on Valentine's Day. it was so delicious. this is one of our new favorite spots and if they are in the opposite, try after a new restaurant, I hope they are over. starting with our appetizer, we ordered the traditional trio. calamari, cajun popcorn shrimp and crab cakes. everything tasted so amazing and fresh. I was very surprised! before this night were my man and I were not a big fan of crab cakes, but now we are. the cajun popcorn shrimp was spiced to perfection and to calamari. Next are our entries! my husband ordered the steak and lobster- 6 ounces. petite filet medium rare and 6 ounces. lobster tail, garlauch kartoffeln, sweet marchand d’Vin drawn butter. he loved every bit! no complaining anything. I ordered the atlantic salmon, grilled with spinach and garlic carrots. the sauce in which the laugh was was very good. the spinach was fresh as well as the carrots. everything was literally amazing. next and finally. is even better than to tremble on the cake. dessert! omg, let me begin with that it was absolutely amazing. did they not know that eating delicious food can give them an orgasm? eat them at scott's and get them their today! I ordered the white chocolate cheesecake. I enjoyed every crazy bite! I really had no place after my evening, but I couldn't even waste a bite. my husband ordered the brotpudding bananas foster, which is made with dreyers vanilla ice cream, sauce and golden raisins. it had no low points. everything was made perfect and we went to home extremely full. I enjoyed myself here in the scott’s restaurant as a whole. a very friendly gentleman played the piano for most of our time there and hear his music brought us memories of the piano sound effects on our favorite cartoon childhood, tom jerry. Some nights are jazz club nights and I will definitely eat again in the near future here. if you are here, visit the bay area and want to visit a restaurant on a place that is not too crowded and packed, visit them scott 's seafood restaurant in walnut creek, ca. the food and desserts are spectacular and I recommend them 100%They also have jazz brunch on Sunday 's! watch it!"
