Anthony's Restaurant - Jasper

Good Italian restaurant. The hosts are not friendly, but neither unfriendly. The food was ok. A bit expensive.

We were seated and given menus, but unfortunately that was as far as we got. Other people who came in after us were waited on before us. After waiting for our waiter for 15 minutes, we decided we had enough and left. We expressed our disappointment to the woman who seated us. It had been a long day and we just wanted a quick dinner before heading back to our hotel. Unfortunately, Anthony's was not delivering that night at that time, so we ended up going to Jasper Pizza instead.

We went in because we all felt like a good steak and the menu looked promising. Lived up to its promise, we all enjoyed our meals and drinks. The waitress was very good without being over the top. Recommended.

My experience at the Amethyst restaurant was a bit disappointing. I ordered the "surf and turf" dinner special and was not impressed with the overcooked shrimp, chewy calamari ring, and strange, gooey deep-fried octopus or squid tentacle on the "surf" side of the dish. However, the turf side of the dish was delicious, and the soup and dessert were also enjoyable. My husband loved the eggplant parmesan. I agree with the previous reviewer that the breakfast buffet was not great - for $14, I expected better than liquid scrambled eggs, crispy pancakes, dry cereal (with no milk), and burnt bacon. Unfortunately, the food just didn't taste good. The staff, on the other hand, were fantastic - very polite and the only reason I gave the restaurant an average rating.

We stopped here for breakfast during our last trip since we had been here about 3 years ago and really enjoyed it. We decided to get the breakfast buffet which was $14/person. The buffet consisted of rubbery scrambled eggs that were hard to chew, burnt sausage, and there was no milk for my son's cereal. We brought that to the attention of the server but the milk was not replaced by the time we had had enough of our meal. Really disappointed with the meal. We ended up paying and then heading down to A & W.
