    Paneed Veal
    Jo-ann H.

    The food was amazing, perfectly cooked and well seasoned. It has that cozy mom-and-pop feel where the chef even comes out to chat, which makes the experience more personal. It's definitely one of my favorite spots in the area so far. Our waiter was pleasant and attentive, and we noticed a lot of families coming in from nearby. The place was clean, which stood out especially being so close to the water.

    Crabmeat Stuffed Mushrooms

    The good: service was very kind, quick to take our order and attentive. The place is your run of the mill Italian restaurant, decor a little more upscale and less chaotic which is nice. The bad: the food was "meh." The meatballs tasted over -rolled, very mushy texture, and not flavorful. The sauce was basic and forgettable. We shared the stuffed mushrooms and sadly they were also very mid. My friends shrimp alfredo was okay. I don't think they're terrible but also won't be back. In a competitive area like New Orleans, you just gotta be able to do the basics top tier.

    Had the breaded chicken as mozz with onion rings and French onion soup..so good! Order the eggplant shrimp and tomato soup to go. It was house soup. Rather bland. I expected eggplant but had more shrimp. I was so tired after Endymion. I was on my way home so hungry and was like let me stop here the chicken poboy is good. I had no cash at the parade. I was in need of food. But I was so tired I could barely eat. So I ate what I could for the rest to go.the bartender Jackie saw how tired I was. I so appreciated that.sometimes all a girl needs is food and understanding.Over all service and food was well I felt at home. I hadn't felt that way since my grandmother died..she was Italian. Spoke it. Unfortunately never taught any of her kids or grandchildren the language....thanks for the food Chef!

    I went with my co-worker for lunch time. Old style Italian feel in the inside. Nice vintage atmosphere. Kind of packed, but service was good. I got the lasagna. I was hoping for more flavor and "bite" from the cheeses though. Ingredients were fresh, and I will be back!

    Chicken & andouille spicy gumbo (no rice)

    Two Tony's, owned and operated by the Montalbano family, has been in business since 1987 and specializes in Creole Italian and fresh Local seafood dishes. Their original location was in the historic French Quarter, where they catered to the locals who lived and worked in the Quarter. The restaurant eventually moved to its second location in Bucktown in 1993 and transformed from a locals restaurant to a "full-service" one that offered expanded seating and catered more to families. In 2011, with new flood control pumps being built near the restaurant, the Montalbano's moved less than a 1/4 mile east to West End. This newest location added seating for approximately 45 additional patrons in the dining room and a private room for parties up to 40 guests. The full-service bar can accommodate 22 people and features a very well-rounded wine list. The menu includes fine Italian dishes, fresh gulf seafood prepared to your specifications, and great soups, salads, and appetizers. On our most recent visit, I had a cup of Chicken and Andouille gumbo (spicy) for an appetizer. It features a very dark Cajun style roux with file and I opted for no rice in an effort to control my carbs. Kudos to the staff for filling my cup even though I skipped the rice. For my entrée, I got the Seafood salad, which consisted of lump crabmeat, boiled Gulf shrimp, mixed field greens, red onions, tomato, egg & house made vinaigrette. The salad was very filling, the chunks of crabmeat were big and plentiful and the house made dressing was excellent. My wife hit a home run when she ordered the Veal Montalbano, made from paneed veal topped with mozzarella cheese with a creole mushroom meuniere sauce. This veal was fork tender and the serving size was more then generous. (So glad she gave me a full medallion for sampling). I highly recommend this dish. Our server was good to go and I was glad to see they were spacing the tables in order to keep the patrons socially distanced. We had a great time here and will definitely be back.

    Hand Cut Onion Rings
    Courtney K.

    I have lived in NOLA for 22 years and somehow never made it here until yesterday. What a mistake that was! The menu is huge, just about any Italian dish you could think of is on it. We started with the onion rings which may have been the best I have ever had. Crispy, not greasy at all, and so fresh tasting. The sauce that came with them was so delicious I wanted to eat it with a spoon! I had the plain fettuccine Alfredo as an entree, but there was nothing plain about it. Flavorful and rich, pasta perfectly Al dente. I did have to add a lot of pepper to it, but that is a personal preference, and they provide a pepper grinder at the table. My friend had his favorite which is the shrimp and crawfish pasta. The martinis we had were also great. Too full for dessert, but I hope to try it when I return!

    Mushroom and artichoke, eh
    Justin M.

    Well that's Two no's for me! Won't be two visits either. Wanted to see if their spaghetti is better than my fav place in Metarie and most def not even close. Be prepared to add seasoning to it and the meatballs were just bad, mushy and bready and lack flavor. The noodles were done fine. The eggplant parm was just ok as well. The fried artichoke hearts were ok but i think it be better with a different sauce. The mushrooms were decent but little fishy which was odd. Service was slow.

    Meatballs
    Ongelle C.

    The food was so fresh and delicious. Meatballs were huge and the marinara was very yummy. Hubby loved the spicy shrimp fettuccine. Said it has just the right amount of spice. Haven't been here in a very long time but definitely will be back soon. Regina was our server and she was fantastic. Sanitizer was readily available and cleaning was definitely in my place. Masks policy being followed.

    The West End is a New Orleans neighborhood just south of Lake Pontchartrain. Seafood and boating are big influences here, and I saw quite a few suburban looking single-family houses and some condominium complexes as we drove around. No doubt, Two Tony's is a favorite of the nearby residents. It most definitely has a "hometown feel", the bar and lounge are very welcoming, and the food is both very good and very fairly priced. I was visiting the local chapter of a professional organization I belong to and attended their monthly dinner meeting at Two Tony's. They did a wonderful job feeding our party of 30. We had a group choice of seven meals (!) and the dinners were cooked to order. The choices were Chicken Parmesan, Eggplant Parmesan, Manicotti, Shrimp Fettucine, Grilled Chicken Salad, Spaghetti and Meatballs, and a Catfish Poboy. I went for the Poboy (fried thin-cut catfish in seasoned corn flour breading - $8.95) "fully dressed" which I learned means with lettuce, tomato, pickles, and mayo) for a mere $0.75 surcharge. It was an enormous sandwich on what seemed like half a loaf of Italian bread with plenty of fish fillets and the fully dressed add-ons. It was excellent! The bread, the fillets, the dressings -stellar. It was nice seeing a different kind of New Orleans restaurant -a place the locals enjoy and where tourists (except for us) were pretty scarce.
