On a housesitting trip to Jacksonville, food was needed. After searching and searching, Bala's…read morecaught my attention. I walked in and instantly I was greeted. She was patient and very helpful as well. I ordered a bacon and mushroom pizza. My go to pizza. The places is simple: ovens, slice station, and the prep counter. Exactly what's needed for a pizza place. The mural on the wall listed the 5 boroughs and had the Brooklyn Bridge, as well as the Statue of Liberty. I mean, New York is there. The pizza came out fast and I got back. Here's the thing: Florida is notorious for having lackluster pizza. There's no ways around it. The pizza was cooked perfectly, thin, and a thicker crust. Perfect for folding. The sauce: not too loose and not too thin. Good amount for pizza, regardless of location. Flavor wise, not bad. Cheese and toppings had the right amount so it could incorporate into every bite. Now going back to my statement on Florida pizza. It's better than other Floridian pizzas I've had. It scratched the itch and I definitely enjoyed it. They'll get my business when I come back to Jacksonville!

When looking for a dinner spot, I noticed an opening on Open Table. I peeked at the menu, and…read moredecided to try out this location. I'm very glad as my server was very friendly, and the dining area was very cozy. What I Ordered: - 4oz Filet Mignon (Brussel Sprouts, Whipped Potatoes, Gorgonzola Butter, and Braised Shallot Sauce): Just the perfect amount of meat. With the amount of sides, I was absolutely stuffed and satisfied as the combination of flavors was perfection. - Dirty Vodka Martini with Blue Cheese-stuffed Olives: A perfect martini after a work day as I traveled to Jacksonville for work. I'd definitely return if I'm sent to Jacksonville for work, and would recommend for anyone living or visiting in the area.

We had high hopes for this spot. I know they claim their pasta is made fresh in house but didn't…read moretaste like any freshly made pasta I've ever had. Thick chewy noodles that stuck together. The Alfredo sauce was flavorless, watery and just all around awful. Soggy bland chicken parm. I even tried my friend's Lugo and he said it tasted like a boxed meal. To top it off the meatballs did not taste homemade and the table swore they were premade frozen. Sadly most of the party we were with didn't enjoy their meals but we were there for a birthday and all decided to keep it to ourselves. It wasn't a busy night and our poor server seemed all on her own for the most part. Dishes piled up and expected someone to come help her clear for the party or refill drinks. She did the best she could. The only redeemable dish is the pizza. The godfather pizza was great with crispy edges and full of flavor. Please just stick to pizza! Pleaaaaassssseeeee The food photographs well but oof I couldn't even eat my dish.

Always a solid spot! I haven't been in a while and I was pleasantly surprised to see that the menu…read morehas greatly expanded. I kind of wish they had a spice level in between medium and hot, but truly not a big deal. I'm a big big fan of the loaded mac!

I LOVE Dave's Hot Chicken! It's one of my favorite spots! This location has been great - very…read morereliable and consistently delicious. My go-to order is the Dave's #3 meal sub mac & cheese instead of fries. Their chicken tenders are always crispy, juicy and very well seasoned. Their mac & cheese is so cheesy with nice texture. I do enjoy their fries as well. The Dave's bites are really tasty too. I've also had their milkshake a couple times - so delicious! Honestly you can't go wrong with anything from their menu!

Recently did an after work happy hour here and it was my first time at this location and it might…read morebe my favorite one now! Love the Happy Gilmore theme. The name of the drinks was cracking me up. I usually stick with the mocktails at work events so I went with a Somebody Kill me Please and it was quite lovely! A few people had cantaritos and love them. I also taste tested someone's Stop Lookin At Me Swan because it's just enough out of the norm to have a cream cheese wash beverage I couldn't say no. That was probably my favorite drink. I couldn't keep track of all the food we got. I had several slices of who knows what kinds of Pizza but they were all very good and cooked to perfection. Same goes for the wings! And everything came out quite quickly! I know we were a little bit of a large and possibly raucous (politely of course) crowd and the bartenders handled it all fantastically. They were quick with the drinks and easy with the smiles. Thanks for such a great experience !

You order at the counter when you come in and the girl at the register was kind and patient. As we waited for the food I did see a bug of some kind crawling on the wall and was pretty big so that was scary but it is Florida I guess. Just as long as it didn't get on me or the food lol. The food came out fairly quickly and the pizza and salad were a great pairing and very yummy! The restaurant had plenty of seating and we had a good time.

And they are there for a very good reason..Great NY Style pizza by the slice or order a whole pie. A wonderful owner-operated place, who appreciate their customers. They deliver, too.

We really enjoyed getting to try out Tony D's Pizza recently…read more We've been on a kick trying out all the pizza places in Jacksonville so far. I laughed initially when I saw this was New York-style, because being from Philadelphia, we have the best pizza up in the Northeast, but to be honest, the quality of the crust, the quality of the cheese, and the quality of how the pizza was made was incredible. The vibe inside was really cool. We ended up carrying out, but we enjoyed how cheesy both the margherita and the white pizzas were. We thought the crust had a lot of volume. We thought there was an overabundance of garlic on the white pizza and basil and sauce, which was very, very tasty on the mamargherita Overall, we just love the pizza, and we've already recommended it to two of our friends, so we will definitely be coming back to Tony D's. Really enjoyed this one.

We visited on a Thursday evening around 6:30 PM, and the restaurant was packed, yet the team handled the crowd. The food was consistently good, with generous portions on several items. Overall, it's a reliable choice for pizza and casual Italian dishes in Jacksonville. Pros: * Staff - Friendly, professional staff and attentive service * Cleanliness - Very clean dining area and well‑maintained space * Menu - Extensive menu with a variety of pizza, wings, and Italian dishes * Pizza - Medium NY Special pizza is loaded with toppings and can easily feed four people * Wings - Good wing size and solid overall flavor * Complimentary garlic knots provided once seated Cons: * Wing flavor is decent but not exceptional * Kitchen cannot split flavors on a 12‑piece wing order, though two 6‑piece orders are allowed at the same price * NY Special pizza could benefit from a bit more cheese to better hold the toppings Tony D's offers strong value, friendly service, and a dependable menu. It's a great option for anyone seeking a busy, welcoming neighborhood spot for pizza - not sure I would call what we got a NY style pizza. We will try this place again for lunch so we can get a "slice" to see if they truly have a NY style pizza.

I love their cauliflower crust pizza! It is crispy and very tasty…read more I do wish cauliflower pizzas would be bigger, but no matter where you go, it seems as if they are all on the small side for some reason. Their chicken parm sandwich is VERY good and I think that their bread (roll) it is on is so crispy and good. Being from NY it is hard to find comparable bread in Northeast Florida, so this is a special treat and chicken parm is good too.

I mostly just loved that the noodles weren't too sweet. The coconut soup was my favorite though. It was so creamy and coconutty, the mushrooms soaked up all of that good flavor. And it was just addicting. The panang curry was also really good. The flavors were all there, the rice was cooked really well. But I do wish the consistency of the curry was a bit thicker.
