What Anthony’s Restaurants does

Anthony's Restaurants is a privately held, family-owned Pacific Northwest seafood restaurant company founded in 1970 by Budd Gould. The company operates 16+ Anthony's-branded restaurant locations across Washington, Oregon, and Idaho, plus 10+ sister restaurant brands including Churchill's Steakhouse, Boathouse 19, Budd's Broiler, Chinook's at Salmon Bay, Emory's on Silver Lake, Harbor Lights, Hearthfire Grills, Tides Tavern, and Woodfire Grill. Anthony's vertically integrates seafood sourcing through Anthony's Seafood Company, a wholly-owned distribution and inspection facility at Pier 91 in Seattle that handles product from boat to restaurant.

The core product is fresh Pacific Northwest seafood and steaks served at waterfront dining locations, with menu pricing ranging from approximately $10 appetizers to $62 entrees and a $35 three-course prix-fixe offering. Revenue streams include dine-in service, private dining and corporate events (capacities of 10 to 120 guests), online ordering for takeout, gift cards, and the sister restaurant brands. Distribution is direct-to-consumer and regional, concentrated across the Pacific Northwest, with no international footprint. Channels include the anthonys.com website, order.anthonys.com for takeout, anthonys.securetree.com for gift cards, the Preferred Guest loyalty program, and an Instagram/Facebook social presence.

Sustainability and community involvement are central to the brand identity. The company maintains Marine Stewardship Council certification for lobster and decades-long sourcing relationships with Pacific Northwest fishermen and farm partners including Double R Ranch, Snake River Farms, Royal Ranch, Maple Wood Farms, Middleton Farms, Richter Farms, LoveJoy Farms, and Schuh Farms. Anthony's helps raise over $3.3 million annually through 20 community partnerships and has received recognition including the 2023 Puget Sound Business Journal Family Business Award, 2025 Seattle Times Best of the PNW, DiRoNA Award of Excellence, and the National Restaurant Association Good Neighbor Award. Leadership currently rests with President & CEO Amy Burns following the July 2026 passing of founder Budd Gould.

Expansion highlights6 records

Others

• Trident Seafoods: Major Pacific Northwest seafood processor and vertically integrated supplier. Comparable to Anthony's Seafood Company at Pier 91 on PNW seafood handling infrastructure; relevant as an ecosystem peer (potential supplier/competitor) rather than a direct restaurant competitor.

Direct peers

• Chart House: Waterfront seafood restaurant chain with multi-location presence emphasizing scenic views and fresh seafood. Closely comparable to Anthony's on waterfront dining experience, fresh seafood menu, and multi-regional full-service concept.
• Pappadeaux Seafood Kitchen: Large regional seafood restaurant chain known for fresh seafood, premium positioning, and high-volume full-service operation. Comparable to Anthony's on seafood-centric menu, family-style and upscale casual dining, and sister-brand multi-concept structure under the Pappas Restaurants umbrella.
• Ivar's Restaurants: Iconic Seattle-based seafood restaurant chain operating clam bars, fast casual, and full-service concepts on the waterfront. Direct PNW competitor with overlapping locations (Pier 54, Salmon Bay, Mukilteo) and comparable multi-tier seafood positioning.
• Eddie V's Prime Seafood: Upscale seafood and steakhouse chain owned by Darden Restaurants. Directly comparable to Anthony's fine dining flagship (Pier 66) and steakhouses (Churchill's, Budd's Broiler) on premium seafood/steak positioning and price point ($40-$70+ entrees).
• McCormick & Schmick's Seafood Restaurants: Historic seafood restaurant chain with premium waterfront positioning and similar fresh-seafood emphasis. Most directly comparable to Anthony's on menu focus (fresh seafood, steaks, oyster bar) and full-service upscale casual format, though operating on a broader national footprint.
• Bonefish Grill: National polished-casual seafood chain owned by Bloomin' Brands. Comparable on full-service seafood positioning, weekday prix-fixe menu structure, and casual-to-upper-casual price band that overlaps Anthony's casual dining locations.
• Duke's Seafood: Pacific Northwest (Seattle) seafood restaurant chain with similar regional focus on sustainable, wild-caught seafood and waterfront locations. Competes directly with Anthony's across multiple Puget Sound dining occasions and shares the same PNW supply ecosystem.
• Legal Sea Foods: New England-based seafood restaurant chain that famously owns its own seafood wholesale/distribution arm — the closest analog to Anthony's vertically integrated Seafood Company at Pier 91. Comparable in multi-tier format (casual to upscale), regional brand heritage, and premium positioning.

Broad incumbents

• Landry's Seafood House: Large national multi-concept seafood and steakhouse operator (part of Landry's Inc.). Overlaps with Anthony's on full-service seafood, steakhouse, and casual waterfront dining across multiple price tiers, but operates at significantly larger scale and broader geographic reach.
