Anthony's is a wonderful addition to Hintonburg! I've been there twice in the past couple of months, and have had an incredible meal of authentic Italian thin crust pizza, served with warm hospitality. The ambience is laid-back, with an Italian flair- there's even a small t.v. at the bar showing soccer games. The experience and tastes are very much what I've enjoyed in Italy; I lived in Europe for ten years, and I can honestly say that this rivals the best pizza I've had in Rome!

I reviewed this dump in the New Openings Forum thread. I didn't think it warranted a new vendor entry, but now realize it's worthwhile if only to warn others not to bother. I wish I could give 2 thumbs down.

I went to Anthony's for lunch yesterday hoping to like it after hearing mixed reviews at work. After reading the Citizen review, I thought it seemed worth trying.
Unfortunately, this place did not live up to the Citizen review at all. I felt like I was in a different place than the one that was described there.
I had a Canadese pizza with pepperoni, mixed peppers and mushrooms. ($14, I think?)
The pizza itself was quite dry, and the crust so coated with flour that it is all I could taste. Neither the sauce nor the toppings stood out and I believe I know why.
Looking back into the kitchen while we waited, I could see all kinds of canned ingredients, many of which I recognized from the shelves at Costco and Food Basics (because of those distinctive blue labels). Cans of tuna, bottles of artichokes, sitting there for everyone to see. I was waiting to be disappointed when I spotted a can of mushrooms that were going on my pizza.
There is no reason to eat out for pizza when this is what is going on my pie. At this price point, I don't think that the expectation of fresh ingredients is outrageous.
I left disappointed, one of the worst meals out I've had in a while, and will not return.

Sugar sugar
Dry crust, blackened flour at the bottom, tasteless sauce and mozzarella the cheap kind that goes really gummy when melted.
So give it a miss and make at home !
