About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Fancy
  • Romantic
For over 50 years, Tony’s has been Houston’s pinnacle of fine dining. Under Donna Vallone's leadership, Chef Kate McLean brings a vibrant twist, blending live-action presentations with meticulous attention to detail. The menu features house-made pasta, seasonal ingredients, and signature dishes like Flaming Salt Crust Snapper and the indulgent Battle Axe Course. Alongside caviar and tasting menus, Kate’s creations merge her free spirit with the formal tradition instilled by her mentor, Tony Vallone. A Houston native, Kate became Tony’s first female Executive Chef in 2013. After a brief hiatus exploring writing and co-hosting a podcast, she returned in 2022 as Executive Chef and Partner, continuing Tony’s legacy. Located near Greenway Plaza and The Galleria, Tony’s remains the destination for upscale dining, offering a curated spirits list, extensive wine selection, and unforgettable experiences.

    Their service is always impeccable, the place is lovely, it was absolutely freezing to the point where we could not enjoy our meal. My tuna had way too much sauce on it, and my daughter's hamburger was fantastic.

    My wife and I had an outstanding experience at Tony's for our anniversary dinner. The waitstaff was super friendly and attentive. The food was top notch, I had Chilean Sea Bass, and my wife had the ribeye which was seasoned and delicious, and we both had lobster bisque. For dessert we shared a tasty Banana's foster souffle. Everything was prepared perfectly and had a nice presentation. We will definitely be coming back again!

    Tony's was great. This month they are celebrating their 60th anniversary. Not many restaurants can claim this kind of success. All because of their food, service, and hospitality.

    Entrees were excellent but the pasta and truffle was not good. Truffle seemed tough.
