Tony’s is one of the most comfortable and pleasant restaurants in Greenwich. We usually go for lunch and it’s rarely crowded. The burgers are terrific and after dining there probably 20 times over the years, we never had a bad meal. Tony himself is a great entertainer with endless trivia games, but you can almost always find a table or one of the great booths in the main dining room that is quiet and, despite the large size of the place, intimate.
