Anthony's Fish Grotto

4.5

About this business

A man-made lake provides refuge to wildlife and dozens of tame ducks, providing entertainment for the diners at this long-established San Diego seafood restaurant called the Anthony's Fish Grotto. It also makes the hour-long dinnertime wait much more pleasant for kids and adults alike. Seafood is the best bet here and the daily specials offer great value and delicious preparation. The Clam Chowder, from Anthony's matriarch Mamma Ghio, is renowned, a rich red broth liberally studded with tender clams.

I have been to many close family reunion dinners here for the last 40 years. It has always been wonderful food, great atmosphere and wonderful service. As a child it was like we were fish in a aquarium. Very special place.

Had the best lobster tail here, but all the food was excellent. Our server was Santi he provided exceptional service. The manager was present, and greeted us I later saw him helping set up a table, and thought that was awesome. Overall, it was a great way to spend Valentine's Day, 5 stars!

We have been going to Anthony's Fish Grotto for years and are sad as everyone else about the closing of the downtown location. The La Mesa location is very nice and private overlooking the pond with some beautiful birds and outdoor tables along the pond for outdoor dining. If you do not eat fish there are other dishes that you will not be disappointed. This is my families favorite.
