Anthony's Story: simple beginning, slow growth, big success!Anthony's Pizza has its humble beginnings in a small storefront location in downtown Denver, just off the 16th Street Mall. It was there, in 1984, that Henry Mann began serving the lunchtime crowd New York style pizza by the slice. The original Anthony's still stands in the exact same spot and is still a favorite among lunchtime diners and the many new residents who now occupy the lofts and condos in and around downtown Denver.Anthony's has since grown to serve fresh-cooked pastas, salads and appetizers, but still retains an intimate, casual family atmosphere. Today, each of Anthony's Colorado restaurants follows a successful format, but is individually operated. Anthony's philosophy is simple: Provide customers the freshest, highest-quality pizza around. Give us a try and we're certain you'll become a loyal Anthony's customer too.
