Houston's other Tony's is a loud, family-filled Tex-Mex restaurant with a loyal clientele that loves its sauce-drenched enchiladas and potent margaritas. Expect a lengthy wait on Friday and Saturday nights. You've been warned.

For the longest my husband and I have heard about this place, so we went and we only waited five minutes for a table. It was crowded and loud. We ordered Margaritas and that was the only thing good about this place!! The waiter missed up my order. I orderd Cheese Enchiladas and he brought me some watery chicken Enchiladas. When i told the waiter he said he must have not heard me right and of course how could he hear me in such a loud place and the tables so close to each other how could he hear him. Tony's is an over priced restaurant and the only thing good here is the margarita!!! Not ever again!!

This place is better than the original Ninfas on Navigation. My mother is very particular about "Mexican" restaurants and this is one of the few she actually likes. Tony is there from time to time and is very friendly talking with the patrons. I would recommend this place but like they said, be prepared to wait for a table. Oh and by the way, I've never had a bad experience here. They give you good portions, it's always hot and fresh and they prices are reasonable.

The food is pretty average, nothing that really stands out, it's your standard tex-mex. The service is great, very friendly and prompt, the margaritas are potent and tasty. I've been going for years and never saw anything that would have gotten Marvin Zindler's knickers in a knot. The bathrooms are always clean and I have never seen any kind of vermin there. It's the great melting pot between the Heights, Oak Forest, Garden Oaks and Shpherd Park Plaza. I highly recommend checking it out if you're looking for good, strong margaritas and decent food.

One need to look to see if this message is true, because if it is "crap" it needs to be removed or addressed. My significant other and myself pass my this restaurant A LOT and we contemplating on visiting this restaurant. This is a awful review.

I blew chunks the last time I ate this crap. Avoid this place at all costs! Also, saw some dead roaches and mice in the men's restroom and my friend saw some slime in the ice machine.

This is review is garbage, and written by a moron. I've never seen a REAL REVIEW phrased this way, it's someone who's upset with the restaurant, fired employee, etc. that's trying to make the place look bad. It needs to be removed.
