How this place exists, is beyond me!
My friend grew up in this area and raved about the food at Tony's take-out. The place gets 1 star only because I have to rate it and because the young lady at the front counter was super sweet (the one with the braces). We just arrived into town and my friend was craving this place since it had been years since had their "to-die-for fries." Apparently they were closing in 20 minutes and the lady that cooks, came from the back to the counter complaining to the nice young lady....Yes, right in front of us! She was not happy that we were there to order food, because they were closing in 20 minutes (Keep in mind, this is take out, there literally is no -lace to eat there...YOU TAKE YOUR FOOD OUT). This same lady (yes the one wearing a white t-shirt) had a look of 100% misery, pissed off and anger all combined in one. She did not hide her face or anger one bit. The worse part, I saw her handling the bread with her bare hands, shoving it into a bag on her leg...I don't know if she was having a bad day, but she was the one cooking all our food! She has zero business working there if she treats customers that way. So let's say the ambiance definitely sucked.
I knew we should have left at that point, but my friend was looking forward this place, so I didn't want to ruin it. We ordered the following:
1. WOP Salad - WTF is this? Soggy iceberg lettuce served in (I believe it was a 16 0z cup) cup....Not good at all....not worth the $6.99 at all!
2. Deep fried cauliflower- gross and will never eat these again
3. Mozzarella sticks - not bad, but definitely need a sauce
4. Steak sandwich - my friend said it was okay, but was not pleased with how the cook manhandled the bread :-)
5. And as for the to-die-for fries? They were just a bag of tasteless fries. No salt, no seasoning. What's to die for about these fries? Nothing.
6. Super Banana Split - this was the best part of this place...and the nice young lady at the front counter actually made it. For $11.99....it was enough for 4 people. It was huge.
My friend said this place definitely went downhill....i personally see no reason I would ever return....especially since the lady in the white PINK t-shirt made it clear we not welcomed. By the way, our food was ready before they closed at 8 pm....so not sure why she was so grossly ugly. I hope the nice young lady with braces can find a better place to work, she is an asset to Tony's take out and I know she would be an asset elsewhere. read more
