  We have observed the Fano-Kondo anti-resonance in a quantum wire with a
side-coupled quantum dot. In a weak coupling regime, dips due to the Fano
effect appeared. As the coupling strength increased, conductance in the regions
between the dips decreased alternately. From the temperature dependence and the
response to the magnetic field, we conclude that the conductance reduction is
due to the Fano-Kondo anti-resonance. At a Kondo valley with the Fano parameter
$q\approx 0$, the phase shift is locked to $\pi/2$ against the gate voltage
when the system is close to the unitary limit in agreement with theoretical
predictions by Gerland {\it et al.} [Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 84}, 3710 (2000)].
