Always wanted to eat here, but it just never seem to happen lol I legit have never even knew they had dine-in. The food was popping!! Soo flavorful, saucy, fresh, hot and delish! My stuffed ravioli with sweet crab meat was ???????? super saucy and tasty!
Hubby's shrimp, fries And fried fish was also yummy.
The customer service was on point, attentive and just pleasant! Ms Cindy was a doll, from Taking our phone reservation to escorting us to our table near the fire place.
The waiters were also attentive and genuinely happy to serve you. Soo refreshing.
Can't wait to return. Great food, great vibes.

I'm out of NYC but find myself in Philly a bunch. The other day I had some delicious seafood out of this joint. Doesn't even smell like fish when you go inside. Clean clean clean. Everything fresh. I had the lobster bisque and some can cakes. Top notch. Well worth the pricey price.
I will certainly eat here again.

I love Anastasi and have been coming here for years. When I’m in the area I always get high quality clams, mussels, oysters, salmon, and whole fish. Crayfish too when they’re in season. I miss the larger space and the restaurant but I’m happy they’ll still provide great seafood for the community.
For ethical reasons I also am a big fan of how Anastasi does not sell shark meat.

Amazing place with good music and food. Unexpectedly elegant. All dishes are wonderful. Lobster bisque is great! I don’t live around but will definitely come back for it

You must try the crab and shrimp soup. HUGE pieces of crab and very tasty. Crabs were a good size. Shrimp were good and the prices were cool. I cooked all my food myself and used their crab seasoning.

We live around the block and always wanted to go here but end up going to central city or Chinatown.
Last night we finally decided to go to see what the “hype” is about and also to celebrate something.
First impression - it looks more like a fast food fish market with a place to sit… So it’s not your fancy restaurant.
We were standing up to be seated and they were either too busy texting on the phone or eating on the side.
We finally sat and took a look at the menu- overpriced (like a fancy restaurant). We got lobster bisque, broiled seafood mix and whole grilled bronzino (with sweet mash and asparagus).
They don’t serve glass water either so you gotta get the bottle for $5.
Our bill for 2 was $110 with tips.
The boiled seafood mix for $37? We were expecting mix of amazing seafood but What we got is in the picture. A bland mix of 3 shrimp, tilapia filet(I think) and crumbs of crab meat.
Lobster bisque soup for $15??? Ok. So that wasn’t too bad, but not worth $15.
Anyways, the waiters/waitress (who I think are family since it’s family owned) wasn’t really attentive. I guess for THAT price, we were expecting a fancy restaurant experience.
But instead it felt like we went to a typical Chinese fish market/fast food joint.
We would have paid half the price for the same experience elsewhere.
As for the food itself: we didn’t find anything fancy or really delicious. Mixed seafood was bland… no flavor.
Grilled bronzino was basically a fish put on a grill with no flavor/herbs. You could literally buy it for $7 and put it on the grill yourself.
We felt disappointed and felt ripped off by the visit. For $110 bill, we expected soooo much more. I do not recommend this place.

Great seafood and nice big platters. Great flavor and good value. I had the mini seafood platter and it was plenty. My husband had crab cakes and they were perfect. Great bread, would of been better if the butter was soft. We will go back. The picture is after I started to eat.

Came in & the smell was overwhelming from the fresh seafood, but I was very satisfied with the food as well as the service. Me & my love ordered a few things he had the oysters cooked in white wine. The grilled octopus which he stated was very tender and wish he had more of because it taste just that good. We also order the fried calamari as well as one if the appetizers. The best calamari I've had, very crisp and tender. We both order the pan seared salmon and it was cooked to perfection. Crisp on the outside and very tender and flakey on the inside. Everything was well seasoned, and came out hot. I had two drinks the Peach Martini and the Red Sangria. Both drinks very strong and had a nice kick to it. I felt it on my way out the restaurant. Placing an order may take some time, have patience the food will come out hot & fast. Will highly recommend this place and will visit again in the future.

Fresh seafood cooked to perfection. Cozy restaurant inside the fish market so you know everything is fresh. The portions are generous and satisfying. The wait staff are friendly and make sure you have what you need. We ordered the lobster pasta and jumbo crab cakes. Both were delicious, expect to take leftovers home.
