We have been here so many times but not since Covid. Really, really sorry we came back.
So first off, we fell in love with Tony C's back around summer 2015. It was a good place to go to satisfy your Italian desires. Pizza was great. Garlic knots were what my son and I went for.
My son ordered a slice of cheese pizza, I ordered a small Carnivore pizza and garlic knots with a coke. My wife went back and forth pretty extensively with the waitress due to her diet restrictions for medical reasons. As a result she wasn't able to order anything (simply put, not the end of the world, the waitress did not know the menu well at all).
Drinks came decently quick. After waiting for a while, we had to ask for the knots, which normally come as an appetizer. While waiting for the food, I finished my coke. I had to ask for a refill, refill never came. I had to get up, find her and give her my glass. It took a while but we finally got his slice, at the same time as the knots.
The knots were partially burnt. I ate one and found that, aside from being dry, it had no garlic flavor at all. I tried another and same thing. I called the waitress and told her about them and asked for at least some garlic butter, which she brought.
I finally got my pizza. The pizza was okay. My main comment here applies to both my son and my pizza. The slices had very little sauce and virtually no cheese. Again while eating, I ran out of drink and got no refill so had to ask.
We asked for the check and this came quick. After putting the card, the check just sat for at least 10 minutes. I had to take the check to the waitress to get it handled.
The thing that probably miffed me the most and brought about this review was the fact that they charged us an additional $.50 for the garlic butter. I would have expected them to give a discount or remove the garlic knots or something - not charge extra fir garlic butter. Aside from being incredibly overcooked, they are named "garlic knots". They should have garlic or at least taste like it,
Service was beyond so slow and almost non-existent when we needed things after the initial order. It was so slow, there was a couple who was seated at the table next to us at least 10 - 15 minutes after us and who arrived after we ordered. They received their food, ate and left by the time I received my pizza.
Synopsis: the food has gone a bit downhill but the service was dismal. I am writing this in hopes it gets sorted out because we used to really love this place. I definitely will give it another shot in hopes things have been handled.
