“We've been here a few times and it's always been good. I had a small dinner salad and hubs had a small house dinner salad. Their salad dressing is very tasty. The salads were really good and fresh. Portions are very generous, so we split the spaghetti and meatballs. There was enough left over we took a small box home as well! The salad is served with a garlic toast, and some slices of whole wheat baguette and real butter came with the pasta. The meatballs were very good and the texture and flavor was just right, but the real star of the dish was the marinara sauce. It was an excellent consistency, not runny like some when it seems like you're eating watered down tomato soup, and not too thick and dried out. It was rich, and more on the sweet side with the full flavor of the tomatoes. I prefer spaghetti sauce that's a little sweet rather than spicy. It was better than any other restaurant's in the Alton area, and even better than some restaurants on 'The Hill' in St. Louis. I've had the toasted ravioli, garlic cheese bread, risotto balls, and Italian beef on past visits, and everything I've gotten from here has been excellent. Our server was friendly and attentive. You can't go wrong here.“
“Kid-friendliness: Came into the drive thru with two kiddos overstimulated. The girl working the drive thru took the time to play peek a boo with my kid, as the line was at a stand still.Had to ask her name , and just wanted give a Shout out to Tara Smith! Made the experience of waiting so much more bearable.“
“Called ahead and took 16 people. They sat us in the front dining room. We were noisy so it was a good place for us so we didn’t bother diners in main dining area. Everything was set up when we arrived. Menus were given to us and I looked it over. There was several good things to pick from. Would I get the catfish and fries? A Lenten special there’s about 8 long strips rolled in probably Andy’s seasoning. Definitely cornmeal based. It was fried perfectly. Flaky white fish. Crunchy on outside. Piles on rye bread and sharing the plate with french fries. The fries were crinkle fries, and they were fried perfectly as well. Accompanying it was a wonderful Italian salad with h fresh veggies. I started the meal with wings h fresh hot coffee and fresh crispy cold water. Finished with Diet Pepsi since they have only Pepsi products. While waiting they provide pub cheese and crackers. Some people had the famous grilled tenderloin. It came with rye also. Some had cod and some had white fish. Don’t know what it was but everyone said it was good. One person had a pony shoe and the cheese fries looked awesome. Have never had dessert here because we’re always full. They do have cold draft beer which I love. Waitress was nice. Was it perfect? No. Cups are plastic. I never like that. Salad came with the meal. Had to wait for condiments, but it was all minor and we loved it and would do it again.“
“It's a lot bigger on the inside then I had expected. My friend and I went there on my weekend we've been trying to eat there but the timings never worked out till last Thursday. We had a wonderful waitress, my friend ordered a small pizza which was the perfect size for her. I ordered some buffalo chicken bombs which were tasty I'ma totally order the bacon cheese burger bombs next time, for my main app I got the Cajun chicken and sausage Alfredo it came of course the chicken and sausage as well as sauteed onions plus bell peppers my all time fav.Every piece of food was delicious definitely better then Macs tbh. I wonder what, I'ma get next time I stop by Alton.“
“Have been to Tony's many times, usually very good. Our food last Friday night was lukewarm, 3 of 4 meals, one was a salad. Quietly called server over, she was quite upset and offered many things. As I said usually quite good, we didn't want anything. She finally convinced us to take a dessert to go. I appreciate how professional she was and apologetic, not her fault. We will continue to patronize Tony's because food is usually very good, but our service was exceptional. Buy local☺️“
