    One of my favorite restaurants. I have been coming here for years and it has always been delicious and an enjoyable time. Their summer patio set up is really pretty. It gives the vibe of a different ambiance that you could forget you're on West Hastings between towers. I hope they continue with it permanently.

    My husband and I don't usually go out on Valentines Day but this year we thought we'd give it a try. I made online reservations at Anthony's for a late lunch. We were greeted warmly and were told we would be seated shortly. We made our way to the bar and noticed how busy the restaurant was but it looked like it was well staffed. We were pleasantly surprised by getting a window seat. Each table had a fresh bouquet of flowers, nice touch. The waiter went out of his way to accommodate out dinner request. Our personal favorite was the steamer clams and bread. We will back next year!

    This place is always nice, we got window seats and had a beautiful view. The service was great and not intrusive, the food was wonderful. My husband has the tacos, I had the steelhead sandwich. We splurged in the Cherry buckle. It was delicious. I recommend this place for special occasions.

    We have been going to the Lighthouse Grill for many many years. It's not consistent, but last night was one of the those nights where they outdid themselves. The wine and steak was excellent but not too sure about the Caesar salad being the best we've ever had. I think it lacked some good croutons. They served a baguette that was warm and fresh and they had this wonderful butter with it. So many things to love about this place including the fast that it's quiet unless you are unlucky to be there on a night with a lot of drunky McDrunk faces next to your table which has happened on occasion. I would give it a high rating based on our recent experience. We always give them chances.
