What can you say about a Staple in Redondo Beach that the whole family loves. You know it's a cozy spot, Low lights, infinity walls before it was a thing. Close to the site so we hit the Pier and had a cool evening! Seafood on point we had some Steamed clams but ate them prior to the photo. The broth on that is amazing! Our waiter was super cool and his table attendant was always there each time something was empty. Didn't even have to ask. The service is amazing read more

It's old! Old Tony's is old.! OK! Not old, Maybe iconic? Maybe weathered? Maybe? Maybe? Maybe? One thing is for sure! You will get old fashioned pours. If you are a whiskey or vodka drinker you will know what I mean. You will bet a fantastic view of the Pacific Ocean looking westward You will get a great view of Redondo Beach and the Redondo Beach Pier. Prices of the beverages follow the current market. Nothing too cheap or nothing to expensive- just normal. Minimum seats; Maybe 24 maximum so know that before getting up to their entrance. You will need to careful when going up and down to get in or out of Old Tony's . Don't say I didn't warn you! read more

We had appetizers and drinks at the bar upstairs. Have eaten many times in the Restaurant and like it very much. Nice setting. Upstairs bar is great for view. Bartender was rude. Short unhelpful answers and with a very strange sense of humor or just insensitive. Not sure which. So we drank our one drink and left. Not pleasant. read more

Old Tony's - Seafood Near Me - Redondo Beach, California

I first came to Tony's on the Pier with my parents in the 70s. The last time was in the late 80s. I ended up living in the West San Fernando Valley so Redondo Beach became a schlep for us. So it was a treat to go once again with friends from Long Beach. We had the best time. Melik was our server and he was outgoing and cheerful. He never rushed us. Our meals were good. They came with soup and salad. We ordered drinks and there was bread placed on the table. The food was abundant, warm and flavorful. The clam chowder was excellent as was the smoky salmon chowder. I had the seafood fettuccine. There were large shrimps and crab meat. So good. I took half of it home. The place is old school decor but really fun. We had a great table and good service. Great views of the beach and parts of the pier. Parking is in the lot. That gets crowded. Try this place. It's fun! read more

A bit disappointing. Wife was wanting crab. Was on their 'market price' board but we were told they haven't had crab in months. Shortage? I got my studded shrimp. Delish. She got the sea bass. Was just ok. Not a fan of the clam chowder. Salad was really good with their house dressing. Will be back but will call to be sure they have crab. Great service. read more

Old Tony's - View from our table - Seafood Near Me - Redondo Beach, California

I would say come here for the vibes, views, and nostalgia. The food is ok, but pretty overpriced for what it is. I got the coconut shrimp lunch combo, which came with clam chowder and a side. The clam chowder was pretty good. I appreciated that the table bread came with whipped butter. The coconut shrimps were fine but I made the mistake of getting "veggies" as my side. It was steamed broccoli, cauliflower, and carrots, but the kind that you get from a steamed bag from the frozen grocery aisle.. I'll stick with fries next time. The combo was $24, was one of the more affordable things on the menu. I got a window seat though, which opened right out to the water, so it was worth it to just hear the waves and enjoy the atmosphere during lunch. The servers were nice and attentive. I'd go again, maybe for sunset, and just expect to pay beach prices for average food. read more

Old Tony's - View from the bottom floor side window seats - Seafood Near Me - Redondo Beach, California

The views are good from upstairs, the bartenders are nice, but the food left something to be desired. For the price you pay on appetizers, one would think the food was freshly made in-house, sadly the food is not very good. The food comes across like something you would find in the freezer section of the grocery store. The order of coconut shrimp was dark brown, soggy with oil, and tasted like it had been pulled from a plastic freezer bag. Not at all what I was expecting. Being that this place is literally a stones throw from a fresh seafood market, I would think the menu would reflect fresh and local catch options. I'll continue my search for good food, at a reasonable price because this place isn't it, no matter how bad I wanted it to be. read more

This place holds a special place in my heart. My parents came here when they were dating and have taken us for years. I loved that I was able to bring my mom back with my future husband. Love the vibes--same rustic vibes as I remember it. Food is good. Service was good from the bartender to our waitress. My mom ordered the dish she has ordered every time since--baked halibut. She was in heaven. I ordered the charbroiled halibut. Definitely left Tony's with 6 Tony's glasses--always get the their famous Mai tai! read more

Been a South Bay resident for 70 years. I've been to Tony's only twice, the first time 15 years ago and the second, yesterday. I'll be brief, because the place really isn't worth my time... or yours. The salmon chowder was luke warm and the claim chowder was cold and tasteless. The calamari plate was generous, served with WAY too much cauliflower. The seafood combo included a tiny piece of Atlantic cod, two breaded shrimp and three breaded scallops all served with unsalted and cold french fries. The seafood combo could be ordered at any Denny's or Red Lobster and it would be comparable. To be at the beach and be served food that was obviously breaded and frozen somewhere else was a massive disappointment. The place was dirty and the carpets were blackened. This place hasn't had an ounce of care since my previous visit 15 years ago. This place is a South Bay institution, but for the life of me I can't figure out why. It's time is clearly long past. The only saving grace was the waitress who was helpful and hustled the entire time we were there. Perhaps it's more fun at night when it's dark and the lights are up. For a few dollars more, go to Kincaids on the other end of the horseshoe pier, you'll be blown away by the difference. There's no need to go back. read more

Old Tony's - Oh Mai Tai's! - Seafood Near Me - Redondo Beach, California

The view is really beautiful if you sit next to the window. You can hear the waves crashing and tides come in and go. We ordered the Mozzarella Marinara and Fish & Chips (comes with soup, salad, and side), and Raspberry Cosmo. The Mozzarella Marinara was okay, it was cheesy, but I didn't taste much of the breadcrumbs. The salmon soup and salad were good, nothing special. The Raspberry Cosmo was fruity and could taste the raspberry flavor. Overall, the food was okay, but the view was nice. Recommendation(s): - Raspberry Cosmo Service: 5/5 Tip(s): - There is a parking garage you can park at - Restroom available - Upstairs is the bar and downstairs is the dining restaruant read more

The ambiance is alright. It's by the ocean. Literally right over it. Not too good lighting. Decor was on point. The service we had was amazing even close to closing time. Wonderful waitress. Now the food is a different story. Although some things were okay, they were all kind of bland honestly. Crab cakes desperately needed salt. Salmon chowder was an experience and needed salt. The lobster was very rubbery but was still sweet and the butter helped immensely. Fries are fries. The house salad I would not recommend. Ceasar salad was great. The alcoholic drinks tasted like they forgot to add the alcohol except for anything with whiskey in it. Honestly paid a lot for what it was worth. Most enjoyable thing was being able to slide the doors open and closed so the birds wouldn't fly in to eat your food. also the waiter/waitress mood was very pleasant so it made everything nicer. read more

We couldn't decide on a restaurant while on Redondo Beach pier so we went to Tony's on the pier!! There is nothing new about this restaurant, old/run down vibe but friendly staff! Service was good someone was always coming by taking your dishes from the end of the table. Loved being seated by the water!! Let's get into the food: Ordered: Oysters Rockefeller to start my bf ate one and spit it right out the oyster was not cooked all the way unfortunately that dish was sent back! I ordered: charbroiled seafood combination! It comes with 2oz of sword fish and it was bomb, 2 shrimp and scallops, 4 oz of salmon with rice pilaf. My bf ordered crab cakes and seafood chowder!! Crab cakes were ok, he stated the chowder was full of flavor!! read more

Live music most nights and great Mai Tai's! Local favorite if you want something stronger than a Mai Tai order a Fire Chief. I had a Mai Tai and one drink did me good for the rest of the night. Sat in front of their fire place, you'll be sitting in a 70 themed ambience. If you get there early enough you can go upstairs and catch some views. Staff were friendly and service was great! I didn't wait long for my drink. Recommend going here for a good time! read more

Stopped for lunch on our way out of town - wish we had stopped in sooner!! Atmosphere is exactly what we needed during this beach stay! We were immediately greeted by Megan, our server, who made our entire experience spectacular. I loved sitting right on the water while our table enjoyed steamed clams, calamari, smoked salmon chowder in bread bowls, fish & chips, and a Charbroiled Seafood Combo. Every bite was great. We met resident foodie, Kevin, who was a blast to hang with! Definitely give this family-owned, Redondo-staple a try. We can't wait to get back! read more

"Old Tony's" is definitely dated, but it's sorta what I love about it! I love its rickety nature hovering above the pier for a view of the Pacific Ocean, the on point mai tais complete with Hawaiian shirts and kitschy take home souvenir glass, the unique salmon chowder and proficiently prepared seafood, the choice of sides straight out of the '60s. I'm into it. The servers are right out of a Vegas diner in the Frank Sinatra era. It's quirky and they don't even know it or care; it's what I love about it. And heads up, the restroom is as tight as one you'd find on a Southwest flight. But clean! read more

If we're going off of the decor, five stars. I really wish we would've ate downstairs at Old Tony My friend insisted on eating upstairs at Top O Tony . The menu was bar food. Nothing really healthy. Next time I come I'm definitely eating downstairs ! My biggest pet peeve is having proper to go containers. If I wanna take my ceviche home, find me the proper container. I don't want my car smelling like fish because you didn't wanna walk downstairs. I know you have a cup with the lid somewhere in this place this is a full-blown steakhouse. The food definitely came out fast, our waiter bringing the food. He was awesome climbing those stairs with baskets of food for us, but the service upstairs was less to be desired. My friend didn't want to make a big deal about the to go container. So she put the ceviche in a box that later spilled all over the car. I would hope next time somebody ask you for a to go container walk downstairs and get the right one it even if it's inconvenient #midcenturyoffthepier read more

First visit here after hearing about it for years from other people who've eaten here and how most love the food and the atmosphere. i don't know if anything has changed much from back then, but I just found it to be ok. Location: Right on the Redondo Beach Pier with ticketed parking. Some. people uber it here because parking can be expensive unless you don't mind walking to it. Food: Crab cakes platter with clam linguine was my choice. Crab cakes were nicely fried, but the crab itself was just ok otherwise. I just felt the cakes were missing something even though I used the sauce that came with it. Lackluster is what i'm saying here and needed more seasoning, The linguine I failed to find one clam in it and was just bland. Hmmmm.... 5/10 The chocolate cake I only took tastes of since I didn't order it. Not too bad on the sweetness level, but at least it wasn't overly sweet as in most restaurants.6/10 Service was good and I have no complaints here. Asked for items were brought in a timely manner and dishes cleared away promptly. Summary: As much as Old Tony's is an institution in the South Bay, it failed to wow me. Maybe I was expecting too much of the place? The only noteworthy praise from one of my dining companions was that the chips (fries) were really hot because they were freshly cooked. I'll only come here if someone wants to visit here. It was just ok for me. read more

After a killer brunch at R10, my girl and I needed one thing: strong drinks with a view--and Old Tony's delivered like only a Redondo Beach icon can. We grabbed a seat upstairs, where the 360° ocean views and salty breeze instantly set the mood. First things first: the infamous Fire Chief. A tropical knockout that's way stronger than it looks (trust me, you'll feel it halfway through). We sipped slow, let the live music sink in, and soaked up the old-school charm that makes this place legendary. Tony's is the kind of spot where time slows down, and the drinks hit just right. No frills, just sexy sunset vibes, ocean air, and cocktails that make you forget what you had planned next. Whether you're a local or just passing through, this is the South Bay at its finest. 5 stars all day. read more

Sunset in the crow's nest. On a gorgeous spring evening... should you head home or grab a drink at Tony's ? Well, we sure prefer the latter. The Redondo Pier is an old school melange of kitsch and old fisherman. Parking is cheap and plentiful. Walk all the way to the top floor of Tony's and hope someone is about to leave and you can nab a table. The Mai Tai is fantastic! Really the only choose and you can keep the glass if you like. We went home with 4 of them ! The service was great and the servers are old school and lovely. read more

Old Tony's is a Redondo Beach Pier landmark since 1952. When I was a kid my Dad used to bring us down to Tony's for dinner. It's been several years since I've been back. Friends and I came down for dinner before the pier concert (80's Band). I went with the cheeseburger and fries, while my other friends went with the sliders. And naturally we all ordered a few cocktails. I asked whether they had the Old Tony's souvenir cocktail glasses but was told that they've been out for the past several months. Guess I'll have to come back to get a glass when they're back in stock. The burger was decent, had better and had worse. The fries were also average. You don't come to OT for the food but more for the cocktails, which are pretty strong. You can tell that the place is frequented by regulars. My friend with me which is one of the regulars....she knew our waitress and the bartender. That's why our drinks had a heavy pour. Score! OT has a great view of the surrounding pier and the ocean from the upstairs bar. Best to get there right before sunset. read more

Today was my dad's birthday and the server we had, couldn't have made it more worse than anyone else. The food took forever, he never filled our drinks, mischarged us, but didn't explain anything when asked. There are really no words for it. My family arrived around 1:30pm, I had arrived at around 2:15pm. It was very strange, but I was handed a dinner menu. I was reading the menu and saw that mine came with a soup and a salad (did not mention an extra charge). I even asked the server prior to ordering so there was no misinformation. When I saw the bill, I was surprised to see I was charged extra. When I asked our server, John, regarding the bill, he didn't explain anything. He just said, it was on the menu. He didn't care to bring it out or show it to me. He also wasn't hesitant to charge us the dinner price when my other family members that arrived prior got the same order. I felt pretty scammed. Also, the dinner portions were extremely large and had he explained this, I would have appreciated it. The food was actually pretty bad as it was super oily and lacked flavor. I didn't even tell the server that the food was bad, but I was really annoyed with how he upcharged us and didn't explain it at all to me. He was short, rude, and super unprofessional. You could totally tell that he absolutely hates his job, it really shows. It was pretty unbelievable especially from a food spot on a pier. I would expect to have much better service for being charged so much. On top of that, we try to pay and he steals the cash that we put towards our tab and still charges us as if we didn't put down any cash. Kind of ridiculous so it took them an extra 15 minutes to get their manager and figure it out. If his service was faster and more efficient, we would have been able to be in and out. But, we often felt neglected, ignored, and talked down to. I will never come here again. Please do better, John. Someone else would love to have your job :) read more

I've seen this place on the pier for many years but never been there before. I decided to check them out on a Monday when I had a day off from work. I absolutely love the vintage charm of the restaurant. It reminds me of the '80s. The Oceanside seating is 10 out of 10. Such a beautiful view of the ocean from my table. I was able to soak up some of that fresh Ocean Air and even hear the waves crash from my table. Such a beautiful and relaxing vibe. My server was amazing. Wish I could remember her name. I had the cheesy garlic bread as an appetizer which was so delicious and flavorful. The option that I selected for lunch came with a salad as a starter and the homemade ranch was so good. I ordered the butterfly shrimp for my entree and I have to be honest I did not enjoy it. The flavor was similar to a fish stick. I was expecting a juicy plump fresh fried shrimp but it was probably a frozen fried shrimp that was placed into the oven. That was kind of disappointing but I would come back here again. I would just order something different read more

A friend recommended Tony's, so I stopped in for an appetizer and a cocktail. I sat at the bar and a friendly bartender assisted with my margarita. I ordered the steamed clams. They were a bit over cooked but still good and the broth was delicious! And then they do the thing that I wish every restaurant would do with mussel and clams dishes: they actually brought a small container of the broth along with the bread. The bread and whipped butter were perfect for dipping and the extra broth was perfect! I loved the 70's vibe and I hope they don't change, I'll be back! read more
