anthony's restaurant and fish bar

"seattle is known for fresh seafood, pan-asian and northwest fare, stunning water, city views and friendly neighborhood hospitality." - nwsource.com i've eaten almost seafood everyday during my visit to seattle - from sauteed manila clams and mussels at salty's to a seafood brunch at the lobster shop south. it was my last day in seattle, and i was strolling through sea-tac airport. i came across a seafood spot called " anthony's restaurant ." the menu featured fish tacos, salad with shrimp and fish n' chips. there were three types of fish 'n'chips- salmon, cod, and halibut - reasonably priced - from $6.99 to $9.99. i never had fried salmon, so i went for that. amazing! i was served 3 pieces of salmon fried in tempura batter resting on a bed of chips. the tempura batter was excellent - not too "doughy" not too oily. makes me want to try frying salmon at home. posted by denise at 11:56 email this

i had the halibut fish andchipsfor lunch here. it was very expensive—close to $40 with a coke. the fish andchipswere disappointing. i hoped that the tempura coating would be light and crispy. no such luck. the coating was doughy and soggy. yuck.

after a long flight, and not having breakfast or lunch, we were very hungry and saw this establishment in sea-tac.  we were really excited to give it a try, and ordered their salmon taco special they were having.  it was $9.99+ tax and it came with clam chowder, chips, and salsa.  the salmon was grilled, but had no flavor, especially against the large amount of coleslaw.  the clam chowder was my favorite part of everything, but it still tasted like it came from a can...  the salsa tasted like it was from a jar, and thechipswere very, very stale.  at least i had good company with me!

i am tempted to say this is the best fish andchipsi have had in a long time. certainly the best food in any airport i have encountered. food came fast and the fish andchipswas amazing. i felt the beer and food had a soothing effect for having to endure traveling with the common folk and riff raff.

greasy fish andchipsat seatac airport. the french fries were ok but the fish was so greasy and disgusting that we sent it back to the kitchen. the replacement porion was almost as bad so we gave up and had to remove the greasy coating and wipe the fish off with a napkin. since we had reviously enjoyed the seafood at other anthony's locations, i asked whether the airport location was managed by anthonys or a franchisee. as i suspected, the airport location is operated bh hmshost.

4/5 pretty good prices for the airport. the night view from the super tall ceiling to ground windows are impeccable . watch airplanes take off and come home. clam chowder [tasty!] salmon fish andchips[super tasty! the fries were awesome] some kind of salad, it was meh. comparably more healthy and less delicious. we waited for ages for the food to come which was a nuisance.  there's actually a fish andchipsbar on the right of the entrance of the restaurant. i think it's a little cheaper.  overall it was pretty great dinner at the airport. i enjoyed it. angel

not good compared to ivar's which is about 50 m away. if i were you i'd just hop over to ivar's. when i was at the airport, i was puzzled by these two competing fish bars so i actually went to both and ordered the same thing. ivar's is much better with the clam chowder and the fish actually tasted better. the batter at ivar's is not the same as anthony's but it is still better. anthony's batter is the kind where it separates from the fish very easily and you can just eat the batter and the fish separately whereas ivar's batter is more attached to the fish and is more rough in nature. this is still not a bad place considering seattle has some awesome fish andchipscompared to where i'm from, but i'd just go to ivar's if you don't mind the fast food experience. the anthony's i went to was also the take-out section so i'm comparing like-to-like.

not bad awful!. the fish tacos were so bad they were inedible! i had my hopes set for something especially tasty, knowing anthonys reputation. instead the dish was i mushy undercooked wet mess, that was void of flavor! the handful of stalechipsas a side dish made me literally laugh! save your money! skip anthonys!

customer and frequent traveler. i have eaten at anthony's for over 30 years. i was recently very disturbed that 3 very small pieces of fish andchipsconstituted a $20.00 price tag. the lettuce was also wilted in my cold slaw and the management told me that the restaurant service manager was unavailable (it was 3:30 p.m.) and that "nobody on site was responsible for portioning". in addition, i was told that there was no customer satisfaction card available to submit comments.
frankly, i expect more from a meal of this price.

anthony's restaurant. i've flown out of sea-tac many times, and eat at anthony's whenever i can. i love to sit at the bar, their fish andchipsare very good, well presented and the service has always been good. not your typical airport food, at all.
