It's just not good in our opinion, but we don't care for Olive Garden either. I find Tony's to be a little worse than Olive Garden honestly.
Picky? No, we're not. We just don't like pasta that tasted like it came fresh out of a can. Yes it was that bad. The folks in the dis unplugged review nailed it right on the head. Its very acidic and not at all edible. My son (and myself too) couldn't eat the meatballs that he was served. I had the chicken parm, terrible. Definitely nothing like olive garden. But I do agree that if you want an edible dish, go for something WITHOUT the nasty acidic tomato sauce.[
Dishes that are not tomato sauce based are also better reviewed.
...My daughter is a super picky eater who will ONLY eat Delgrosso spaghetti sauce on her pasta...
I have to ask where you're from I grew up in the town where Delgrosso sauce comes from (well, where it was first served in the family restaurant, not where it's packaged - that's about 10 miles away) and it was pretty much the standard for anyone who didn't make their own sauce. It's always funny when I hear about people who love that stuff but aren't from the area! I guess it still seems like a local product, rather than the big corporate sauces. Delgrosso also operates a small amusement park in the town where the sauce is packaged. Maybe they could take over sponsorship of Tony's! Seems like a good fit
Just finished my Tony's lunch. I had the Festival of Fantasy package and was on the Dining Plan. (1 TS credit)

They make a big deal out of calling you to your seat here, or at least they did today. As a solo I could have done without that but DD would have loved it when she was six.
I found the restaurant very pretty and appreciated my seat in a quiet corner.

My server was prompt, polite and efficient-no complaints there.
Appetizer-Caesar Salad
View attachment 272923
This was a very basic Caesar but the romaine was fresh and, for once, the salad wasn't overdressed. 6/10
Entree-Shrimp Scampi
View attachment 272925
This was pretty good (after I added a lot of black pepper!) with eight nice sized shrimp and al dente linguini, a very large portion-I couldn't finish mine. 7/10
Dessert-Tiramisu/Cappuccino
View attachment 272928
This was pretty darn yummy IMHO. The tiramisu was creamy and the coffee hot and foamy. 8/10
All in all, I was happy with my meal and felt the FoF package provided good value on the DP.
Thanks! I was originally planning on the zucchini fries appetizer but it's 137 degrees in the MK today and fried didn't appeal.Awesome pictures! That looks very tasty, actually. We may get the shrimp.

Haha I refuse to ever call it Delgrosso Park...it was always be Blands Park to me! Are you from the Tipton/Tyrone/Bellwood area? I know some of the family from Martinsburg. I am from Hollidaysburg
I'm from Altoona! I agree...it will always be Blands Park Maybe we could start a campaign to have Delgrosso take over the sponsorship of Tony's. It's still weird when I see hometown favorites (Delgrosso, Sheetz, Boyer, etc.) outside of the area so a Delgrosso/Disney deal might completely blow my mind!
