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.

    Tony's is one of the best restaurants in the country. The restaurant has a lot of history and it's a really beautiful restaurant. I have dined at Tony's for now over 40 years and it is without a doubt one of the finest restaurants I have ever had the pleasure to experience. From start to finish, it is sheer joy to behold. The service is impeccable, the ambiance is stunning, yet relaxing all at once. Most recently, I was there to celebrate a good friend's birthday and the entire staff couldn't have made it more special. There aren't enough accolades to describe how truly special dining at Tony's is.

    Fabulous! Soft shell crab with special sauce was incredible! Capelinni Vittello delicious! Gelato is better than Italy. There is a reason this restaurant has not only been in business for decades but is also consistently one of the best restaurants in Houston.

    Had the tasty Greenberg salad-of course the truffle pasta was wonderful and the rib eye was delicious as was the artichoke. Topped it off with the brown butter date cake. Serviced lacked a bit at the end - he did split all of our bar drinks and entrées and wine so that was very helpful. Unfortunately, we left without our leftovers -ribeye and artichoke. In the past, they’ve always been handed to us upon departure and I completely forgot to double check.

    Tony's continues to be perfect in every way! Beautiful food, great atmosphere, and fantastic live music featuring Miguel Delabarca, a fabulous tenor on the grand piano. From Sinatra to Andrea Bocelli, Miquel is a world-class entertainer. This is our go-to Special Night Out!
