Recently visited for a family birthday dinner. I chose the restaurant from my past experience. I have to say I was disappointed with my entrée on this visit.
I had the grilled Mahi Mahi, usually my fave fish. The Mahi had no flavor, was very bland, and a sort of «fishy taste.» The side of Capellini pasta was equally disappointing. The Marinara sauce tasted like pure tomato sauce out of the can.
The other entrees at the table were Veal Montalbano and chicken Pontchartrain. The guests liked their entrees, so maybe I chose the wrong dish, but I don’t think I will be back for awhile.

My go to Italian spot! Love that their sauce is different from other Italian restaurants. Service is always great. This restaurant is great for a romantic dinner date or family gathering. My favorite dish is the shrimp pasta Mediterranean! It is light and delicious. Their fried food is fried perfectly! Would recommend this place to everyone and anyone.

Every time I eat here, which is at least once a week, I feel like I’m back in Italy. Two Tony’s has most definitely captured the Italian flavor. From the Appetizers to the Entrees, which I’ve tried many different ones on the menu, are the best which this city has to offer. It is a must to try each and every one of the Appetizers upon each visit or share a few when dining with more than one. My favorite is the Italian Fried Artichoke Heart with the Creole Horseradish Sauce. The large House Specialty Italian Salad is another one of my favorites. The Baked French Onion Soup is to die for. The Five Cheeses Lasagna is perfectly designed to make your heart sing. Another favorite of mine is the Shrimp Pasta Mediterranean. All of the Specialty Dishes are so flavorful. They have a new Fish of the Day offered every day. Which in my book are fabulous works of Culinary Art. I know most of the Italian family’s are use to their mama’s cooking however, Tony’s excites everyone’s taste buds including the mamas. The only thing I have to say negative about the place is that it’s closed on Sundays and Mondays, but I guess everyone needs a brake from making masterpieces from Michael Angelo to Tony. Oh yeah, The prices can’t be beat!

This would be a very cute little date spot. The prices are reasonable and the atmosphere is very quaint. Service is great. Also a good spot for kids and families. Their red sauce is different as others said a little sweet, not my favorite. I found their Alfredo a little bland but the chocolate crème brûlée was to die for. The French onion soup and ceaser salad were decent but nothing amazing. I’d go to Adolfo’s or Giorlando’s over this place simply because the food is better. I’d probably come here again and try a special with a different sauce though for the atmosphere and service..

My go to for Italian! Great prices! Local owners and no one can beat their chicken Parmesan!

Checked out Two Tony’s for the first time on a Friday night, the night before Halloween. The restaurant had a good crowd, not full, but I’ll attribute that to Halloween being moved up this year. Our server was friendly, seemed like a lady who had been working there awhile. I started with the soup of the day, a corn and red bell pepper bisque, really tasty. Also ordered was the House Italian Salad… if you like olive salad, get this! One of the best salads with a heaping helping of olive salad on top. I went with the Lasagna, really nice. It had a great red sauce, sweet, which I prefer. The Italian Sausage inside really upped the flavor. The Veal Parm was another entrée enjoyed. Good portion size, not too big or small, just right. Crème Brulee was ordered for dessert, really done well. Perfect crispy fired sugar topping… you get the breaking sound when you dig into it. Overall a pleasing meal at a local spot with a good price point. If in the Lakeview/​Metairie area and are looking for Italian, go here.
note: This is not a fancy Italian place, more on the casual side, like a neighborhood place. So if you want higher prices with more frills… look somewhere else.

We went to II Tony’s because the restaurant we were going to was closed. It was 5:55 on a Wednesday and the place was empty. The prices were surprisingly inexpensive. The service was quite slow, but we weren’t in a rush. We started with calamari, which was served hot, but needed some sort of spice. As for the main courses we had lasagna, eggplant parmigiana, and spaghetti and a meatball. The food was good, but I had to add a lot of crushed red pepper and salt to give it flavor. We will not make a big effort to return here, as there are so many great places to try.

Went here for my neighbor’s 90^th birthday! We had a total of 13 people. We ordered fried artichoke hearts and eggplant for appetizers. Both were delicious! I ordered the Veal Montalbano and that was perfectly cooked and tasted amazing with a side of angel hair pasta. The service was great! Will be back soon!

Terrific find, off the beaten path in NOLA. Great seafood and Italian specialties. The mussels appetizer was fabulous!

This restaurant was simply average and in New Orleans that isn’t really a compliment. (There are several better Italian restaurants here!) The atmosphere was pleasant enough & the service was good.
The house salad was good. Enjoyed the vingarette. The red sauce was just ok. I treated a meatball which had s strange texture & was falling apart. Tasted the veal parm which was more bread than veal. I had the lasagna which is made with beef & sausage. I had 3 small pieces of bone that I almost cracked a tooth on!
Probably won’t go back or recommend.

First impression is that it has a good atmosphere, friendly and quick service. We had the fried eggplant, ceaser salad and specialty salad, all of which were good. As an entrée we got the chicken parm which as a previous review stated not really up to par. The chicken itself was bland and the sauce is good, just different (just a little sweet). We also got the spicy shrimp fettuccine, it was good but just has spice and can’t really taste too much flavor over the spice. So overall it’s ok not really the experience I was expecting for the price.

We eat here regularly the food is consistently fresh and delicious As for Ann Maries review We were there that evening It was a screw top bottle that the waitress forgot to unscrew If you are looking for 5 star service this might not be your place If you want good food reasonable price with friendly servers and a relaxed atmosphere This is your Restaurant

2 tonys not worth 2 cents.
No taste to any of the food.
The waitress had ZERO knowledge. I don’t know was her only definite answer. She didn’t even open the dnag bottle of wine!
There wasn’t even ambiance to compensate for any of the above.
Waste of my dad’s 69^th birthday

One of the best kept secrets in town. Good food, great prices, and welcoming staff. We eat there about once a week. I recommend the Chicken Parmigiana.

Really bad!!! Friend ended up throwing up in parking lot. Raw meatballs, under cooked fried eggplant and stuffed mushrooms were disappointing never again ugh!

I have been hesitant to try this restaurant, mainly because of the location, I was thinking that it would be fancy and expensive. I finally tried yesterday after my morning class, and I am glad that I did. My casual (not dressy, but not holey or dirty) clothing was perfectly fine, and as other lunch diners wandered in, I realized that I was perfect for this crowd.
I had the grilled chicken with a crème sauce, spaghetti and artichoke hearts. The bread was HARD, but the food was awesome, hot and very fresh. I found it to be very flavorful. I wish that I had paid attention to my waitresses name, but she was very nice and thoroughly explained all of the daily specials. I will definitely be coming back!
There was ample parking, the restaurant was clean and the food was reasonably priced.

I came here to try the famed Two Tony’s sauce so I ordered the Chicken Parm and it was just ok. The sauce is much different than anywhere else because its very thick with and filled with veggies. The chicken parm was not great at all. It was a tasteless chicken with a breading that was not italian bread crumbs and fell off of the chicken breast. The salad was very good but like the whole meal, way overpriced. I was here once, I doubt I will be here again. If one of my friends get a fish delivered to them start dredging the river for me.

Excellent fried redfish, tasty and different sweet potato soup, good martini too.
Visited on a Friday night in search of fish dinner and found good options at II Tony’s. While I normally would prefer my redfish broiled or grilled, the fried version I chose was done to perfection. Thick cuts of fish were crisp yet sweet and tender throughout.
Soup du jour was a sweet potato that reminded me of similar dishes in Africa, with chunks of vegetables in a bisque-​like broth.
Pretty good martini. Service was a tad inattentive. The dining room was busy but not overflowing yet I had to finally fetch my own drink from the bar.
Small matter, II Tony’s is clearly a neighborhood favorite and deservedly so.

Raising this restaurant to a Five Star. The consistent top quality food that is always prepared fresh and with flavor and taste is one of the main reasons. The service staff has never provided anything but attentive and professional caring service at all times. And recently we used the catering service of the restaurant for a party at our new home. The food prepared and the reasonable price of the catering service has raised this New Orleans gem to a Five Star.
This restaurant has my Seal of Approval!
