Anthony’s Pizza & Pasta Menu Nutrition | Smart Picks

Most slices range from about 130–480 calories at Anthony’s Pizza & Pasta, depending on size, style, and toppings.

Anthony’s Pizza And Pasta Nutrition Guide: Sizes, Slices, Add-Ons

Ordering smart at this Denver-born chain starts with portion savvy. A cheese slice from a 12-inch pie can land near 130–200 calories when boxed to go, while a slice from an 18-inch pie can reach 320–370 calories in the same to-go format. Dine-in slices skew bigger and richer; an 18-inch cheese slice can sit around 430–480 calories. Sauces, crust style, and toppings move the needle fast.

Those numbers aren’t guesses. Anthony’s publishes calorie ranges on store menus and in an interactive nutrition menu that sorts pies by size, sauce, and build. That makes it easy to plan a meal that fits your day without giving up the New York-style fold.

What Drives The Calories

Three levers matter most. Slice size sets the floor, sauces add density, and toppings stack on energy. Red-sauce cheese is the baseline. White sauce, scampi, and extra cheese push higher. Veggies add little. Pepperoni, sausage, bacon, and gorgonzola climb quickly.

Quick Comparison Table: Slices And Ranges

Menu Item	Typical Calories	Notes
12″ Cheese Slice (to-go)	130–160	Leanest baseline
12″ Shrimp Scampi Slice (to-go)	160	Garlic butter adds energy
12″ White-Sauce Cheese Slice (to-go)	140	Creamy, slightly higher
18″ Cheese Slice (to-go)	320–340	Large pie, thinner slice
18″ Shrimp Scampi Slice (to-go)	370	Rich from butter and cheese
18″ White-Sauce Cheese Slice (to-go)	340	Creamy base
18″ Cheese Slice (dine-in)	430	Bigger dine-in cut
18″ Shrimp Scampi Slice (dine-in)	480	Heaviest common slice
Wings, 6-piece	330 + sauce	See sauces below

Numbers above reflect posted ranges from store menus and the digital list. Expect normal kitchen variance. If you’re splitting a pie, budget two slices and add a salad or veggie side to round out the meal.

How To Build A Slice You’ll Feel Good About

Start with the size that fits your plan. A single 12-inch slice pairs well with a simple salad for a lighter lunch. If your group prefers the 18-inch pie, aim for one slice plus a shareable side, or two slices on an active day. Keep sauces simple and lean into vegetables.

Calorie-Smart Sauces

Red sauce is your lightest default. White and scampi sauces taste rich because they carry dairy or butter. That punch shows up as extra energy. If you like a creamier bite, keep toppings lighter and skip extra cheese.

Topping Swaps That Matter

Meats vary widely. Pepperoni can add about 90–110 calories per serving on a jumbo pie, while local sausage tends to add even more. Chicken adds less per portion and brings protein. Veggies like mushrooms, onions, and peppers contribute crunch and flavor with only a few calories.

How Dine-In Differs From To-Go

At many stores, the dine-in cut is larger than a takeout cut from the same pie size, which explains the step up you see in the ranges above. If you’re counting, ask the counter for slice sizing that day.

Beyond Pizza: Heroes, Pasta, And Wings

The menu runs wider than pies. Cold and hot heroes land between the mid-hundreds and around a thousand calories. Pasta sauce choices swing outcomes. Wings change a lot based on dip and glaze.

Sandwiches And Pastas

A meatball hero sits near the upper end of the range for sandwiches, while chicken Parmesan and the Italian sub trail close behind. Pasta sides vary with sauce: Alfredo and creamy styles sit higher per cup than red. Consider splitting a hero and backing it with a salad to keep the meal tidy.

Wing Sauces And Dips

Plain wings give you flexibility. Glazes add. Ranch and blue cheese dips can bring a few hundred calories when you use the full portion. A lighter path is to order sauce on the side and dip sparingly, or pick a vinegar-forward glaze.

You’ll see a standard calorie statement on menus because of federal labeling rules. That line appears on boards and printed menus at chains so guests can compare choices. If you want the full text, the menu labeling requirements page lays out the basics.

Reading Restaurant Numbers With Confidence

Restaurant numbers are estimates based on standard builds. Kitchens still make real food by hand. Expect small variance across stores and days. That doesn’t make the info less useful. Treat the ranges as a planning tool, and aim for consistent habits across the week.

Portion Clues That Help

Watch the crust edge, cheese coverage, and pooling sauce. Those visual cues line up with the ranges. If a slice looks extra loaded, balance the rest of the meal with leaner sides and drinks.

Protein, Carbs, And Fat At A Glance

Cheese pies skew higher in carbohydrate from crust and moderate in protein from cheese. Meat toppings shift the balance. Veggie builds keep things lighter without losing texture.

Build-Your-Order Table: Toppings And Swaps

Topping Or Add-On	Approx. Add-On Calories	Swap Or Tip

Scampi Or White Sauce Base	+20–40 vs red	Keep meats lean to balance
Ranch Dip (small/large)	~250/500	Order on the side and portion
Blue Cheese Dip (small/large)	~360/720	Use teaspoons, not pours
Wing Glaze: BBQ	~70–140	Brush lightly
Wing Glaze: Sweet Chili	~110–210	Toss half
Wing Glaze: House Spicy	~10–15	Heat without heavy calories

Practical Orders For Different Goals

Light Lunch

One 12-inch cheese slice plus a side salad with vinaigrette keeps energy steady. Add grilled chicken if you want more protein.

Post-Workout Bite

Two 12-inch slices or one 18-inch slice with chicken topping fits a higher-energy window. Pair with water or diet soda.

Family Dinner

Order an 18-inch red-sauce cheese pie and split it with a tray of roasted veggies or a big salad. Keep dips light and pass sauces.

Where These Numbers Come From

Anthony’s publishes an interactive list with calories by pie size, dine-in versus to-go cuts, sauces, and toppings. Store menus also print ranges for sandwiches, wings, dressings, and sides, along with the standard daily-calorie statement. For general context on eating patterns, large databases catalog typical pizza nutrition across styles and serving sizes.

For store-posted ranges on sandwiches and wings, some locations publish PDFs that list calories for heroes, wing sauces, and dips. Slice ranges for to-go versus dine-in also appear across stores. You can cross-check with the interactive list linked above when you want item-level detail.
