A group of friends and i went to Tonys on saturday for a little birthday extravaganza and had a great time. although packed to capacity, we had a wonderful time. This dude Greg came to the table introduced himself as our server and it was 'game on' from then on. This man was on top of things. He got our orders correct and kept us well informed as to what was going on in the bar and the kitchen which was awesome. Great personality and a nice presence.
The drinks were good, the food was tasty, the patio was sultry. The only problem i had was seeing this man in a white shirt yell at the servers IN FRONT OF THE GUESTS. I'm sorry but there is a place for everything and in front of the guests isn't the place to yell "get your sh*t together" to your staff. i found out later that it was the owner. It's unfortunate but as someone in the business who used to be a waiter i can't support this establishment. i came with a celebrity client of mine and she was appalled at what she saw. i'm guessing this place is going to have some undercover labor board reps dining there in the near future...
Pros: service was fabulous
Cons: the disrespect shown to the staff
