The food and service were outstanding. The menu offers a great variety in both food and beverage choices. We will most certainly be repeat diners when we next have the chance.

What an amazing night from start to finish. It was my wife's birthday and from the moment we arrived everything was perfect. Paul's service was spot on. Attentive, but never overbearing. The food was delicious as always; some of the best in Baltimore. They honored our request for our regular corner banquet table. The birthday card on the table from the whole Marta staff was a nice touch. We'll see you again soon!

Drove from Delaware for a double date with great friends. Very easy to get to. The food was amazing. Service was a bit slow with server return time and remembering requests, but I think that was due to inexperience of a very young server. But with more experience she’ll get better.

Party four for a birthday celebration. First for all of us and three of us loved our meal (gnocchi, kale ravioli, n salmon ravioli). One friend was boring and ordered the chicken parm - it was good but not as tasty as the rest of our entrees. Sauce with salmon ravioli is outstanding. My husband ordered additional gnocchi to bring home because he enjoyed it so much. Tortino dessert is outstanding ! Tiramisu was just ok. Servers were attentive to all guests. Our server, Stephanie, is very sweet.

    Had a great experience at Anthony’s in Pasadena, MD! The food was delicious, the service was friendly, and the portions were generous. What really stood out was the good value for the money—it’s nice to find a place where you get quality food without feeling like you overpaid. Definitely a great local spot that I’d recommend to others. I’ll definitely be back!
