The drinks were strong, the food was delicious and plentiful and service was professional and efficient. The atmosphere is upscale without being stuffy. We had crab stuffed mushrooms (special of the day) appetizer, my husband had cannelloni and I had pan fried trout. The Italian salad was a great accompaniment as well. We love to try local places when out of town. I’d definitely choose to go back to Tony’s if we return to Columbus.

The caprese salad salad is definitely not worth the money. They give you a bowl with little torn up pieces of mozzarella and the incorrect type of tomato then the tomatoes were in pieces also. The wedding soup had way too much spinach in it and only one small meatball. I had the chicken parmigiana and it was excellent. My wife had the chicken with buttered mushrooms and it was very flavorful. The knives you are given to cut your food they felt like they were 20+ years old. The varnish was chipping off and the handles were sticky. I like Tony’s but this was just not a good experience for the price we paid.

But more importantly, we felt rushed. It appeared they were understaffed and so our server was stressed....not her fault, but it wasn't a very relaxing meal. She was attentive and did her best. Dining there should be an experience.
