"Originally opened in the French Quarter in 1987, this Creole Italian seafooder is a solid choice, thanks to the culinary talents of Anthony Montalbano senior and junior. Come hungry and plow through heaping platters of fried seafood, chicken parmessan, and spaghetti and meatballs. The vibe is warm and friendly at II Tony’s — that’s how it reads on the sign." - Beth D'Addono
