Tony's Di Napoli

Times Square Chain Restaurants, Ranked - New York - The Infatuation

"Come For: Good times, al dente spaghetti, and parmesan shakers on the table. With its dangling chandeliers, checkered tablecloths, and deceptive photo of Frank Sinatra in an Italian restaurant that isn’t Tony’s, Tony’s is just the right amount of tacky. Caesar salads and chicken parm are served with tableside flair, and the spaghetti and meatballs or rigatoni alla vodka are always al dente, with pungent sauce. Just keep in mind that portions here are gargantuan. Cruise ship-big, and windowless enough to host a corporate conference, this family-style spot (which has just one other location, on the Upper East Side) is like Bucca di Beppo, if the food at Bucca di Beppo was really, really good." - bryan kim, willa moore, will hartman, ciera velarde, molly fitzpatrick
