When the Mobil Guide awarded Vince Bommarito's establishment its highest rating, it catapulted the place to national recognition. But that was back in the day, and now, while some reviewers maintain that it still deserves similar kudos, most feel Tony's is "locked in the ways of the past," adding, "If you like that old-fashioned, heavily sauced, over-composed, Continental-style Italian food, you might like Tony's because they are still doing it this way." Even the vaunted service couldn't muster consensus, with some calling it "magical" and others decrying it as "overbearing." One reviewer took the middle ground, saying, "While the food is from several culinary movements past, it's well done, making it worth a visit if you like that style of cuisine."
