I have been eating fisherman's/seafood platters for over 50 years and never had anyone put calamari on one of these plates. I want good fries, fresh fish, scallops, shrimp and clams with belly's. Most seafood platters are so large you can't eat it yourself. This seafood plate was $40 the clam roll $30. My friend got the clam roll and all my calamari and liked it. He also likes Tony's and goes every year. For $40 the "seafood platter" came on a nine inch paper plate. It was not over flowing with seafood. Way too much calamari and the heavily coated french fries. The fish may have been frozen product and not fresh fish. The service was great and with a smile. The place is super clean. There is parking around back if you go down the side streets. They had only been open for a couple of days.

Opening day of the 2024 season and it didn't disappoint. Hot and fresh seafood with great views of Wollaston beach! Can't go wrong with anything on the menu.

An institution! Fried clams on the patio can't be beat. Wollaston Beach is always lively.

The place to go if you want delicious seafood! Never had a bad experience in all the years I've been going there! The only thing I dislike is that they aren't open all year!!

Clams with the bellies are delicious.

My son and I are on a mission to find the best lobster roll in New England. This ranks in the tops for sure.

First time. Lobster roll lived up to the hype as did the full bellys. Will go again next season.

I use to luv their Greek chicken kabob... it doesn't taste the same guess they changed how they marinated the chicken... plus too expensive now for a salad!

This place is awesome. We don’t get to the Boston area (Quincy) often but when we do we eat @ Tony’s.

If you are ever in the Boston area, just drive 15 miles south to Quincy, to have a MEMORABLE dining experience! It was hands-down, the BEST food we had in the area! If we were in Boston longer, we WOULD have had the rest of our meals at Tony's! All my life I have had great seafood up & down the West Coast, but NEVER did I have 'fried perfection' like Tony's! The fried clam strips, were so masterfully prepared, they were practically 'dry' from cooking oil! I haven't experienced THAT before, EV-AH (wink-wink)! It was also the tastiest clam chowder I have had in my life, LOADED with clams! I'm not a great fan of sweet potato fries, but after sampling my husbands, I kept pinching them off his plate, here and there. . . They tasted caramelized inside, which made them delectable. SO delicious in fact, that I snagged one of the cooks and asked how they were prepared. He said that they fry them LONGER (very high heat) to indeed caramelize them. I asked about the history of Tony's, and he shared that Tony was Lebanese, and that (since he has passed away) his family operates the restaurant as they have for decades. What a wonderful INSTITUTION Quincy has! :) The restaurant itself is very clean, organized and there is outside dining on a beautiful patio, facing the sea. Sigh. I realize that different cooks on different days, can give different results. And I had read a couple reviews from a few 'soreheads' that weren't happy with their meal, but that is the EXCEPTION and not the rule apparently. I'm seriously thinking about inquiring if they ship overnight, because there's nothing on my side of the country that compares to it.

This is one of my favorite places for seafood in New England! Everything tastes amazing and it was the first place where I tried steamers. It has gotten quite pricey though. Everything we ordered in the picture was a bit over $100.

It's been in Quincy for ages! My mom used to go there as a little girl and now I go there as an adult. Classic, fried seafood fair right along Quincy beach.

Hits the spot every time. Not fancy but food is always solid and consistent here. We got the whole belly clams plate, clam chowder and tuna club sandwich. Great coming in the Summer but better to come off season, no crowds, no long lines and plenty of parking in the lot. Last day before season closing is 10/22/23.
