Great service and atmosphere aren't the only reasons people have been making the trip to Tony's for over 60 years. Tony's is the home of the World Famous Pepperloin Steak. This beef tenderloin is marinated in Tony's secret marinade, rolled in half cracked black pepper, grilled to perfection, and drizzled with garlic butter. After one bite of this mouth watering steak, you will never want steak from another restaurant again. It is so tender it can be cut with a butter knife, and it practically melts on your palette. If steaks are not for you, Tony's offers 20 different home made specialty pastas, along with a delicious selection of seafood and chicken dishes. Tony's boasts an impressive wine list with several by the glass selections, even the most discriminating wine aficionado will be in heaven. For an after dinner don't miss the Italian Delight, Tony's version of the ice cream drink, The Brandy Alexander. Tony's also offers a 60 seat bar area and charming sidewalk cafe.
