They are terrific and location and view is beautiful. I would recommend this to anyone who wants to go out casually or romantically especially if you want to take a walk afterwards the ambience setting in view is beautiful right by the lake.

Seems like the new owners made some changes to the menu and the food preparation. It's not as tasty as it once was. Will try once again to see if it was just a fluke or not.

Inside this is a very nice facility with many seats having a view of the lake. Service is a solid 5-star. Food was good but not great, especially for a $250 night out for two. Mussels and scallops overcooked. That said, the amount of seafood in the seafood pasta was unacceptable. Three mussels, one scallop and one shrimp does not Pescatore make... Should have known perhaps since menu says scallop, shrimp and mussels but really did not expect to have to take that literally. There are better options in CDA. Hope this place picks up its game. Great potential but lacking in execution.

Delicious food and great cocktails! Waiter was attentive. Definitely recommend for a special occasion or a date night!

Great food for Coeur DAlene. I would say this is top of my list. In a town with bad culinary experiences and no food culture this place shines. Love the boat up option.

The location is fantastic! We sat at table where 2 faced the water and 2 faced fireplace. The fire was roaring and the smell it of and the sounds of the wood popping was awesome!!! The food was a little better than OK. Half of us enjoyed our meal, the other half not so much. I liked the bruschetta appetizer. The had some pop and flavor. The calamari was a big disappointment all around. It was tasteless and soggy. My brother got the spinach lasagna and that is not what we consider lasagna. We grew up with ricotta and some mozzarella, lots of layers and delicious. His was green (spinach) fresh pasta and Béchamel and I believe it did have meat. He didn't like it at all. Nephew got the Pomodoro pasta and he didn't like it either. I got the eggplant piziola and rather enjoyed it. My brother liked that too. Hubs got the bolognese and he enjoyed his. It not super expensive but if you don't like your dish it kinda stinks. Service was very good. Overall, it was very good. Some of the dishes didn't wow us though. Would definitely come back!

Had a great date night with my wife here tonight. All of the staff were super friendly, and our server Thomas was one of the most top notch servers we have encountered in a while. Thomas went above and beyond to ensure that we had a perfect dining experience. Now, on to the food! Everything we ordered from the mozzarella to the salads and our main entrees were prepared perfectly and were delicious! Based off of this experience I can 100% recommend this place to anyone that wants to have a special dining experience, whether it be for a special occasion, or to just enjoy a fresh properly prepared meal.

The service was great and the ambiance was good unfortunately the meal for my wife and myself was over cooked and not very flavorful. We hadn't been here in a couple of years and were disappointed. Tony's always used to have great food. Maybe it was just an off night.

Always great food selection and service. View can't be beat. Patio on a nice day is the way to go.

Best authentic Italian restaurant in town...and only restaurant I would consider fine dining so far. Price is worth every single bite. Soaked up every bit of Sugo of chicken marsala with the best rustic bread I've had here...you get what you pay for...service, ambiance, and FINE Italian cooking...short rib to die for, perfect grilled fish...great wine list...Thank you, Tony's!

I was there for my first time and it was my anniversary and I can honestly say that this place is the absolute best I've ever been to. The service to the food absolutely perfect! I can't wait to return!

This past new year I decided to visit Tony’s for the holiday season, I was told that this place was a lovely Italian restaurant and I was quite excited to try for myself. The location was beautiful and the appetizer we got was quite delicious, however, once the main entrees were served they were horrendous. I had ordered the Lasagna and another person in my party had gotten the steak, and when I tell you this was one of the most distasteful foods I have ever eaten I mean it, nothing about it tasted fine and my other party members steak tasted strangely like peanut butter. With all this considered I could not finish my food and so I asked for a Togo box, after the waiter saw that I had barely touched my food he was non stop giving our table glares and stares. Overall it was an alright experience I just do not recommend much of the entrees served there. (Deserts were delicious though

Ate there this past summer and the food was awesome. But for some reason on this visit the food was tasteless and very slow to come out.On our first visit we started with the Buschetta,Calamari and Scallops followed by an order of Chicken Marsla ( was called Fettuccine con Pollo alla ) and Fettuccine alla Bolognesa . All of which were awesomeThis time we ordered the same appetizers which were very good except the Calamari because it was nothing but small pieces that were so small we couldn't pick them up with a fork.As for the main curse we ordered the Chicken Marsla and a Lasagna.The Chicken Marsla had a over powering red wine taste and the noodles were hard. As for the Lasagna it was just a Soupy mess with rubbery noodles. ( Seriously just take this off your menu)I truly hope the owners can right the ship before it's to late because as we all know.If the food goes down hill the restaurant will follow......

This was a dinner that my husband and I have been planning for six months. My grandma and grandpa used to come here and rave about it. It lived up to our expectations and even surpassed them. The interior is beautiful and clean, and the crackling fire added to the ambience. Our dinner was fabulous. Our server, Thomas, was friendly, kind, considerate, and efficient.
