Anthony's at Point Defiance, Tacoma, WA P301
 
A Top Pick in the Area
 
Having just eaten at Jake's Famous Crawfish in Portland, I wanted to make a point to myself that excellent Salmon can be had in the Northwest in decent sized portions for less than $19.90. 

Anthony's was just the ticket...

$14.95 for an excellent, large piece of "Alder Planked Salmon"...$4.95 less than Jake's, better fish, better flavor, better atmosphere. 

Their Caesar Salad was good as well...no, unfortunately, it wasn't a REAL Caesar, but it was good...maybe rating a 5 on a scale of 1-10.  I do wish someone would tell me of a restaurant that still makes REAL Caesar Salads.  Alas, I fear most restaurants are serving the "white gloppy stuff"...some sort of ill-defined, gelatinous white stuff that has some garlic taste (or not)...and calling it a Caesar Salad.  Pity.

Anyway...Anthony's was just what you would expect for a seafood restaurant in the Puget Sound...nice view, fresh fish, decent prices...Jake's could learn a thing or two from them.
