Note it appears that their menus vary by location, with the University location having smaller offerings. Of the food we tried, I enjoyed the pepperoni pizza the most and the Boudin the least. If you do not drink beer, they also have cocktails and wine. As with the food, the University location has a limited selection of cocktails. The night we came they also had live music outside. The place is pretty huge with an upstairs and outside space. If you have little ones, or enjoy playing pinball yourself, they have a room where you can play on the Main level.

The Scene I've really tried to like Tony's. My family and I…read morehave visited at least five times over the past three years, hoping each visit would be the one that changed our minds. The restaurant itself is fairly basic, but one thing that has always stood out is the parking situation. There are only a handful of spots near the entrance, including a single handicap space, which can make pickup inconvenient. My first visit set a less-than-great tone. I ordered online and pulled into the drive-thru line, assuming I could pick up my order there. When I reached the window, I was told - rather emphatically - that online orders had to be picked up inside. As a mobility-impaired veteran, having to park in the back, walk through the rain, and retrieve a to-go order wasn't exactly the welcome I was hoping for. The Eats Unfortunately, the food has been inconsistent across our visits. The first pizza we ordered had an extremely thin crust that ended up soggy in the middle. On another visit, we tried the appetizer sampler and pizza. The pizza was actually much better that time, but the appetizers were overcooked. The mozzarella sticks, in particular, had reached the point where the cheese inside had become rubbery and dried out. Today, we stopped in for lunch and ordered a shrimp po'boy and lasagna. My husband thoroughly enjoyed the po'boy and had no complaints. My lasagna, however, was a struggle. The sauce was sparse, leaving the dish tasting mostly like heavily seasoned meat and cheese. After a few bites, I couldn't continue. Everyone's taste buds are different, but the balance of flavors just didn't work for me. The Service Service has been hit-or-miss over the years. We've had some perfectly fine interactions, but that first pickup experience has always stuck with me. A little flexibility - or at least a friendlier explanation - would have gone a long way. Parting Thoughts After multiple visits over several years, I think it's finally time for me to accept that Tony's just isn't my place. That's not to say others won't enjoy it - clearly they have a loyal following - but the inconsistency in the food and some less-than-memorable service experiences have kept us from becoming regulars. My husband would probably order the shrimp po'boy again, but for me, this was my last attempt. Sometimes a restaurant and a customer just aren't the right match.

Tony's Pizza in Lake Charles, La. is a must when you visit!…read more We always stop by! Best po boys, pizzas, etc. Great service, excellent food, and adorable Italian decor! Love the ambiance. I've always loved their side salad - really all of them, and it's normally a favorite of everyone's until recently. They have replaced their yummy iceberg mix lettuce with the darkest green leaves and everyone I know doesn't like it. I truly hope they go back because we are all saying no more salads from Tonys!

It was quiet here and we were seated and served quickly. I wanted a traditional, good ol' shrimp po'boy so I wasn't sure what to expect when I read the menu description. The po'boy had grilled shrimp instead of fried, but it was very good! It came with remoulade sauce (which was good), but I honestly liked it without. It had enough delicious flavor from the shrimp itself. I also would've preferred big slices of real tomato vs the grape tomatoes. The shrimp chowder was excellent! So good! We'll see u on our next road trip! $72 for 2 large shrimp po'boys, 2 small zapps chips, and a 16 oz chowder. Note: They charged 3% for cc fee. Bathrooms were fairly clean but one stall one not in great shape.

Everything was absolutely spotless -- the restaurant, buffet bar, salad bar, arcade, and even the restrooms were immaculately clean.

The owner, aka Batman, was incredibly kind, and you can truly tell how much he cares about his business, his employees, and his customers. Great food, great atmosphere, and outstanding service.

I ran a buffet before, so I know how it goes. TV is a bit big, and this isn't a good place if you're trying to limit your kids' screen time. There is nowhere to escape the televisions. The games are fun and it's best to play them with your kids. The game room seems smaller now, but I'm not sure if it's just memories playing tricks. It can get a little bit loud inside the gaming room, but there's a door between the dining room and the gaming room. I'm glad they added a camera, but I would highly recommend staying with your kid. There's only one staff member in the gaming room.

There is a section to the side that does not have a good view of TV screens so make sure to indicate if you want a tv view when you arrive. They took us to a table initially on the side and we asked for a better view and they switched us tables, which was great! Food - we ordered the eight count chicken wings, which was more than enough for both of us because it's the whole wing, basically two pieces each. We also ordered the fries which are like potato wedge swirls and were lightly seasoned, which was good. Lastly we ordered the bourbon peach cobbler... Didn't taste a lot of bourbon and it definitely needed more bready texture but it was still good. I would say it's more like a peach pie.

They were huge! Like carnival food huge. He said they were delicious too. I recommend the BLT - messy but delicious, the sliders (comes with 3), or the hot dogs. All very filling and could be split with someone or take what you don't finish to go. It gets loud in there on game day. We were there on a Friday and then again on a Saturday. Loud, but fun!

It came with the most amazing bread and red sauce... this was amazing we inhaled it. Our dinner, we chose the ribeye, but cooked like the smoked pork rib eye style, was over the top. He chose a Caesar salad, I chose the loaded baked potato soup that was offered as today's special. Oh My Lanta and stomach. I have NEVER and I mean NEVER had such an amazing soup! This was so rich and lovely to my taste buds! The main course came out exceptional and quickly! We couldn't even eat it all! The sear, the flavor, 10 out of 10! Blake and his crew have everything on point! We chose to have the chocolate chip cheesecake for dessert bc why the heck not?
