"I’ve been to AV Anthony’s a few times before, but this was the first time I actually sat down and I’m so glad I did. The place has this super cool rustic Americana feel, vintage street signs covering the ceiling and walls. It’s like a time capsule, but in the best way. Definitely gives it character and it top of that the lady at the front was super nice, excellent service. I ordered my go-to: the Maxwell Street-style Polish, and man, they nailed it. It came out hot, fresh, and loaded. The grilled onions were charred and sweet, the sport peppers with right kick, and the Polish itself had that classic taste when you bite into it, juicy an flavorful. The fries were golden, crispy on the outside and soft inside and they give you a good portion too. Every bite of that meal was just pure bliss. Solid food that hits every craving dead-on. This place is worth it, If you’ve ever had a Maxwell Polish and you miss that taste, this spot is the way to go. Casual, cool, and damn satisfying."

"Delicious and generously portioned gyro perfectly prepared with giant yummy French fries. One look and I knew I was back in Chicago! The taste confirmed it. Probably three days calories, but who cares. Perfect post flight meal."

"Absolutely delicious! Came one night for ice cream, and ended up coming back the next day for dinner. Pizza is GIANT, but thick with toppings and a beautiful cheese pull. The salad was fresh and dressing tasted homeade. Soup was so delicious, and everything was super filling and at a great price. Will definitely visit when I come to Illinois again."

"There's a good selection of delicious food and beverage items here. The service is awesome! I love the interior decor of this place! On the walls and the side of the counter are some plaques and newspaper articles involving airplanes and Midway Airport. Speaking of, the dining area provides a great view of planes flying over to land at Midway Airport."

"I drove in from Michigan to drop off some friends at Midway Airport knowing that I wanted to take some italian beef back home with me. Well a lot of places were closed on Sunday but Anthony's could not have been more convenient, more helpful, and with a great selection of typical Italian specialties at good prices. I went home with two Italian Beef, a Gyro, Ribs Tips, and a free pizza. I even had an Italian Beef, while I waited and it was out of this world. The Christmas music was nice, the bathrooms clean, and easy parking. I know in a week when I come pick them up that I will stop by here first so I can take some home again. ............ well, it's a week later, and I'm here to pick up some friends from Midway and it was all I could think about all week was coming back here to get some more gyros, and italian beefs."
