Anthony’s NY Pizza and Pasta

“We've been looking for a quality pizza since Bertucci's closed in Columbia and tried five places around town with no luck. Finally, we had lunch at Anthony's NY Pizza and it was great! Nice crust, foldable and crisp. Topping quantities were just right. Service by Eylin was very friendly and helpful. Highly recommended!”

“Honest to goodness NYC pizza in the HoCo. Lots of pretenders but this throne goes to Anthony’s for actual thin crispy crust, with just the right chew, high quality cheese and sauce that doesn’t rely on salt but on flavor. This is the closest I’ve had outside the city. We also ordered a healthier Spinach Stuffed Eggplant that had delicious flavors, if a little underdone. Heated up later at home, it too was awesomely creamy without overwhelming the spinach and eggplant. The service was so friendly and courteous, we KNEW we weren’t in NYC 😉”

“Walked into a completely dead restaurant with no patrons at all. Was seated quickly, and my order was taken quickly. Bread wasn't bad. It's definitely nice and warm. Soft in the middle and crisp on the outside. Tasted fresh. I ordered the stuffed shells with meat sauce. It came out piping hot and still bubbling. Not bad at all. I needed something close to home good, and this satisfied it. Thank you. Normally, I would have a review saying it tasted even better cold the next day. However, my leftovers went to a homeless family standing outside of a shopping center on a school night looking for help. Apparently, not even the school their children attend are helping with anything. And they are being turned away from assistance programs. It is a rather repetitive thing I am hearing across a large majority of this entire state. Sad. I went through the same as a single mom and foster mom for 20 years. And over the pandemic. It's not surprising at all. Those employed on the taxpayers dime aren't fulfilling their duties and not being held accountable. And it is showing in record numbers.”

“Granted, we had a large party. However, they were aware that we'd be there and when. It seems they weren't prepared aside from having the table(s) ready upon entering. They may need a bit of grace due to possibly being short staffed as well. Anywho, we didn't receive our food for at least an hour.. at which most within our party were truly hungry. Within the last 15-20 minutes of our 1hr and a half to 2hr function, the food was at least hot and good for what it's worth, but I probably wouldn't subject myself to that experience again. This was experienced while being very hot also.. the air circulation is pretty minimum.”

“The service here is excellent. Very friendly staff. The claim of NY Italian is false advertising as far as I’m concerned. $11 for frozen mozerella sticks is insanity. The steak calzone I got looked good until the ocean of grease emptied on the plate, barely any steak in it and void of flavor. The veal shank was good so that was the only plus. As I mentioned, staff is wonderful and very nice but there are plenty of other places that are actual Italian restaurant, this is more like cafeteria “Italian”.”
