Horrible service ruined my parents' 41st anniversary dinner

by emaleth72

My parents are quite frequent diners at Tony's, so it was not a surprise that they chose to go there for their 41st anniversary dinner tonight. The restaurant doesn't take reservations for groups under four, so they had to wait about 30 minutes..which was not a problem. However, once they were seated and had ordered, they seemed to have been forgotten about. After waiting 15, 30, 45 minutes they flagged down the waiter and were given some lame excuse and basically blown off being told the food would get there when it got there. Meanwhile, several other couples had been seated and had been served their food. Finally, after having been seated and waiting for an hour, they got up to leave. They asked for a manager, who came out and proceeded to treat them much as the waiter had...blowing them off, even after being told it was their anniversary dinner. Needless to say, they won't be going back...nor will my family be going there at any time. Someone needs to sign their employees up for customer service classes.

• Pros: Food
• Cons: Service, management

"Red Beans and Rice" - NOT

by nocajun

I have only been to Tony's once and once was enough.

Being from New Orleans I ordered the Red Beans and Rice to see if they lived up to New Orleans.

What I received was some rice with what looked like a can of Bush's dark kidney beans had been

poured over them and maybe some sausage.

A can of Van Camp's kidney beans would have been better.

These don't even come close to what good Red Beans and Rice should be so don't waste your

money on them and please do not think thiese represent New Orleans in anyway.

Try Louise's in Clayton. This i primary a carry out but does have some tables outside.

Try it just for comparison if you are thinking about Red Beans and Rice, Jambalaya, Etoufette, Poboys, etc.
