| - Last week my girlfriend got her birthday card from Tony R's in the mail and she just had to use it. I agreed to join her because no one else would! I was a huge fan of Tony R's for years and keep hoping (because we do go there yearly to use my gf's b'day cards) that they would upgrade the NE Location. Nope. Same, aging decor, same outdated carpet, and now the silvering is coming off the forks! Kid you not, my gf's fork had leprosy and I traded her because I got camping in the woods and I've seen worse.
And how is the food you ask?
Mediocre. The pulled chicken sandwich was so soaked in barbeque sauce it was impossible to handle, and it could have been pulled mystery meat for all I knew, as all I could taste was sauce, sauce and more sauce. The coleslaw swimming in dressing was equally as messy, but the fries were pretty good.
I like the prices on their new value menu, but my gf's steak sandwich was more bread than steak and served with the same slaw and fries as mine. She said her steak was okay.
The service was good. I like that our waitress took time to chat with us.
Will I go there again? If that darned birthday card shows up in the mail again, yeah, I guess so. I'll probably end up trying all the value meals, because, quite frankly I have hope. When the food fails to live up to the pictures ... there is always hope.
