"A group of 8 co-workers got together for dinner. Table was ready when we arrived and server came right away. Service was excellent and we didn't feel rushed. Food was great! Definitely going back."

"We had friends from Austria who speak no English visiting, and they were delighted with the experience of eating at Anthem. We arrived 30 minutes early, and the hostess and server accomodated us without blinking.
they serve Sam Boston Brick Red, a rarity in town.
After a minor disappointment in cooking of a steak, the manager was very sympathetic and helpful.
recommend it."

"We were there before the NKOTB-Boyz II Men concert. Nice atmosphere. Plenty of room and able to have a nice meal and good conversation. Not overwhelming if you have friends who don't dine out often. You can dress up or come casual."

"Anthem is a gem. I've been there about four times with my girlfriend and we love it. I've had the clam chowder, tacos, lobster roll and a few other dishes and it has all been amazing. Highly, highly recommended. Definitely check this place out."

"Accommodated my friend's bachelorette party with no problems. Had our own corner upstairs and it was a great time! Food was delicious - I got the Parmesan Crusted Cod. Ambience was lively. Once the Bruins game was over, fans started trickling in. I highly recommend Anthem for a fun night!"

"Myself and my family enjoyed our entire experience. We ordered three appetizers: the hummus, the calamari, and the fried pickles. They were all delicious. I especially loved the fried pickles. I hadn't had fried pickles that good since Beale St. in Memphis! We also all shared cups of the wonderful Clam Chowder. I'm pretty sure we devoured the entire bowls. Each of us ordered a unique entree: chicken, steak, meatloaf, Greek salad, Bahn Mi, cheeseburger. All of them were wonderful and shared around the table. They were savory, unique, flavorful, and seasoned to perfection. Yes, all of them! This was my second visit to Anthem and I will have no qualms in returning for more appetizers, drinks, entrees and desserts!"

"Had a very nice dinner at Anthem on Saturday night. Menu was good but not stunning. Chowder was delicious and Fondue was really good too. Had a lobster roll and my husband had the steak and blue salad. Service was so-so. Our 2 year old was welcome and they had a nice little children's menu. Wasn't our favorite place ever but was really good."

"We went there for a business group lunch. I ordered the Salmon, which was delicious with beautiful plating presentation. We all ordered clam chowder since it was awarded the Clam Chowder Festival winner of 2012, but it was a bit salty to me although my co-workers like it. We also ordered two Salad. The lettuces are in one piece from lettuce head, which was NOT cut into pieces like most salads do. The cucumber was peeled into a long thin piece, but not cut into rounded thin pieces like most restaurant does.Sorry to say this - but it looks very lazy, unfinished and disappointed. My co-workers didn't even know where to start eating because of the whole big pieces of rounded lettuce on the plate and not bite size. LOL."

"Decent food but the brunch options should be expanded. They were out of smoked salmon and it wasn't even crowded in there when we were there. I've been for dinner though and it was very good."

"I usually do not write reviews but did not have a good experience at Anthem. Both meals were completely incorrect, making it seem like our waitress did not pay attention when we were ordering. These were not complicated orders either, one was a side substitution and one was not to have something on it. We waited a long time for our meals to come out and when they actually did, both were incorrect. Our waitress was no were to be found and by the time she did come we were basically finished. They eventually brought over the missing side item once we were finished but by that time we were ready to leave. They did take one meal off the bill which was nice but overall not a good experience."

"Anthem was exactly what I was looking for. Our son came into town unexpectantly and I wanted an elegant/casual restaurant in Boston where 5 of us could carry on a conversation. It was perfect. We had a corner table and with the glass walls I felt as if we were outside. The food was very good, especially the crab cakes and ravioli. I'm so glad I picked Anthem and we will definitely be back."

"Basically a tourist pub at Quincy Market. Food was just ok, neither good nor bad. We were trying for a fancy Easter Brunch which was pretty much a bust. Our waitress was friendly and tried to please. Location was ok for people watching at the Market if you had a decent seat. Otherwise just average."

"We were called by the restaurant the day before to confirm the reservation. We aren't sure why, since when we arrived we were escorted to an empty room upstairs. When we asked if we could be reseated at an open table by the windows, we were told that it was "probably reserved for another party", which never arrived during our time there. Since it was Easter, we came specifically for the advertised brunch. The French Toast was undercooked, the Eggs Benedict was poorly done, and portions were small. Our server was fairly attentive, though given the dearth of other customers that would be expected. We were never asked about the food once we had it. Overall very negative experience."

"The restaurant offers a standard, boring children's menu without including a vegetable. (I had to ask multiple times to be given the kids' menu) I was told we could not order a half-sized salad for my son so he received a huge salad that would be challenging for an adult to eat. The salad dressings (even the pepper-laden ranch) are not kid friendly. The service was fair at best."

"We arrived on a Monday evening, and the restaurant was relatively crowded, but overall still quiet for noise level. The service was great and they were attentive to the children (ages 4 and 7), and even the kids pizza tasted gourmet. The food was very good, and tough to choose and narrow down to our favorites. Would definitely return."

"I had one of the best martini's I ever had. THe Pomegranate Martini was awesome! The New England Clam Chowder was fabulous. I had that with a grilled cheese sandwich which was delicious. Great place to have drinks and good food. Our waiter was terrific too!"

"Food is good, the lobster eggs benedict are very good however the amount of lobster is on the parsimonious side. The corned beef hash is excellent too but overall the restaurant lacks character and prices are high for what you get"

"Food was average at best - I think the timing was a little off as it was obvious that my dinner had been sitting out for a bit. Another member in my party - his dinner was fresh and piping hot! So of the meals - most of them were pretty good but mine could have been better if it had not been drying out and wilting under a heat lamp. The space is nice, we were seated right away and we were not rushed - I'll openly admit that my friends and I can camp out a little bit but that’s how I knew our service was exceptionally SLOW! Took in excess of 10 minutes to even get a waitress to the table and it clearly wasn’t that busy - then that was just the pace for the rest of the night - we tried to cash out in time to catch trains home (20 minutes befo"

"We were seated upstairs tucked away in a corner. The server was very absent for most of the meal. He never came to check on us once after the food was delivered.
I ordered the salmon, but he thought I said "the same" so I ended up getting the duck instead. It took so long for it to arrive that I didn't feel like waiting for the salmon that I had actually ordered."
