My experience at Anthology was well worth the bill. I flew into town for business (and, not coincidentally, to see Wynton Marsalis). I had always wanted to have the experience of a fine supper club with live music. My father had taken me to some great jazz and big band shows when I was younger, and I'd learned to love it. But I never expected to have a fantastic Filet while listening to dualing trumpets. It was almost too much, and I be back to be blown away again.

Wonderful place with great music, but a bit pricey.

Friends have been recommending Anthology for months and now I see why. When we first walked in, I immediately recognized this as a place for me. The service was impeccable and the food outstanding. We were lucky enough to see Dave Mason from Traffic. WOW, what a show! People were dancing in the aisles. I look forward to returning very soon!

Not just a dining place, not just a music place, it's an experience! The decor is so unique, even the menus were given attention - they are made of guitar woods. Overall, the food was really good. My entire table loved their meals, from the appetizers to dessert. My steak came out a bit overcooked and my server, Michelle, immediately and without question, took it back and returned with a new one. My food did come a bit later than the rest of my party's so she paid for our dessert. I was very impressed with such a high level of service.
The music was truly unbelievable. There did not seem to be a bad seat in the house and the sound, by far, THE BEST I have heard... ever! i would definitely recommend Anthology!

Amazing night! I went here with some friends last Tuesday for "Jazz up your Tuesdays" and happy hour. I expected to have a drink or two and maybe an appetizer. We enjoyed the music and entire experience so much we wound up staying for dinner, which was delicious. I heard that they recently "spiffed" of the menu. I cannot comment on the previous menu but our dinners were unbelievable. I will definitely be back!

Great place to spend an evening. The food was delicious, each course was better than the one before. The wine list was spectacular and the music was truly the best I have ever experienced.

Menu is very good. Quality of food is excellent. What you have to watch is your liquor; which is massively marked up if not exorbitantly so.
And that's why I just say no to Anthology ever again...
