Service was really good. Chicken soup was very good with smoked meats in it. Chicken pot pie tasted homemade with a flaky crust and fresh ingredients. Jambalaya had peppers, chicken, tomatoes, peppers and shrimp in it. Was very delicious and not over spicy. Had the best corn bread I've had in a long time. Waitress was very attentive and knew the menu really well about spice levels of certain foods. Chef came out to make sure all the food was good.

I have had several different entrees there. All have been very good and very reasonably priced. I have a food allergy. The servers know some of the items I can't eat but always go back and check with the chef. Many the chef can leave out my allergen. Many if not all items seem to be created in house, not from a supplier and heated up. The theme of Antracite (a type of coal) means this is a very casual, family friendly place.

What a strange experience! We had a great time at the sister restaurant so could not wait to try this one fo dinner. Thursday is wing night so most of us got either the bone in or boneless varieties. We got different sauces with each order. All of these were disappointing! The bone in wings had the sauce drizzled on them so that barely half was covered. How sad! The garlic butter sauce was mostly garlic salt! The hot maple garlic sauce was a basic BBQ sauce, and so on. On the other hand, the items we ordered from the regular menu were really good. The crab cakes and ribs were perfectly cooked and seasoned. They both came with a wide selection of sides which were decent. The beer selections were normal and relatively uninspiring. Prices were reasonable but the kitchen was slow. Bottom line, stay away from the specials and order off the regular menu.

Wonderful atmosphere and service. Signature beer on tap was delicious. Pretzel battered chicken was tender and tasty. Burgers were more of smash burgers. Wings and fries were not crispy

I stopped by Anthracite Saturday afternoon after a long work week. I wanted to find a spot that had a nice atmosphere and good vibes. This one did not disappoint. It was an intimate and lively atmosphere. The staff was extremely friendly. Mikayla approached me immediately and took very good care of me. Anthracite has some delicious sounding martinis on their menu. For the season there is a Pumpkin Spice martini and also a Peach Cobbler martini, both which sounded amazing. I had been craving an Espresso martini all week long, although I was very tempted to try one of the seasonal drinks. Mikayla made mine perfectly✨️ I only wanted an appetizer to munch on, so I ordered the Coconut Shrimp. The portion was extremely generous. It was yummy and the Pineapple sauce that came with it tasted home made. This was my first time trying Anthracite but it will not be my last. They had good vibes, good spirits, friendly staff, and (the part I like the most) it's a safe place for a single girl to sit alone and not be bothered by anyone and enjoy a nice afternoon nourishing myself. Thank you Anthracite! You have a new fan.
