Anthony’s in the Catalinas at 6440 N. Campbell Ave., one of the last remaining fine-dining spots in the city, has started offering a lunch menu that’s so affordable it’s sort of hard to believe.
There are, of course, sandwiches, but they’re loaded with delectable fillings like chicken-and-pesto, short ribs and other things. If you’re looking for something a tad nicer, and perhaps a bit more substantial, they have salmon, shrimp, scallops, chicken Milianese and a slew of salads topped with all sorts of delicious things.
This is the first time the restaurant has offered lunch service in 15 years and it’s a great opportunity to check out a top-notch dining establishment for a fraction of the usual bill. Prices for lunch are in the $6 to $15 range, which means you get to eat in one of the fanciest places in town for the same amount of money you’d shell out for a combo deal at Subway.
Lunch is available from 11 a.m. to 2:30 p.m., Monday through Friday. They don’t appear to have a lunch menu up yet, but you can take a look at their other offerings here in the meantime.

Nothing like heading up there and shelling out $300 for dinner for two though, to really get the Anthony;s experience.
Have you ever eaten there Burnie Mak? I’ve always wanted to, but it’s a bit our of reach for my budget, so I’m pretty stoked about this new lunch thing.
I have on a couple of occasions. (Obviously not as much as I’d like, it is STEEP) In any event, the fare is by no means cutting edge, but it is executed with finesse, and the service is TOP NOTCH. A true fine dining experience.
