    Macaroni salad
    Frank P.

    The other Tony's in Placentia. Tony's Little Italy a couple miles away has the best deep dish pizza. Tony's Bar & Deli has some of the best sandwiches ever. It's was so hard to decide on which sandwich to get, but I went with the Boulevard which is Corned beef, pastrami, Swiss cheese and Russian dressing on rye. My side was macaroni salad. It also came with a deli style pickle wedge. This sandwich was amazing. My tummy was very happy. I really loved their decor, all the old things on the walls and ceiling. Service was amazing. They kept asking how things were. They gave me sandwich ideas for my next visit. I saw they have trivia night on Tuesdays. All the sandwiches other people had looked so good. I really can't wait to come back.

    Warm corned beef on rye with mustard.

    So let me start by saying it's a very nice deli! Awesome indoor decor and really nice patio to sit at outside. The parking is bad! I ordered the hot corned beef sandwich on rye with mustard. The corned beef was as tender as can be! My only complaint is the sandwich is very small for a "deli" its typical sandwich bread you would use at home. It comes with a small side and with tax it was 23 bucks.. they should be using larger bread. Service was quick, I ordered at register and took it to go.

    Virginian sandwich
    Tr N.

    First timer. Went here for lunch with a friend. Place was very busy and loud. There is outdoor seating but we chose to sit inside where it wasn't as hot. Sandwiches are huge. We shared a Virginian: Pastrami, turkey, Swiss and Russian dressing on very tasty rye bread. Each sandwich comes with a side. Cole slaw was ok-not great. Sandwich was wonderful!!! Service was fast (not rushed), efficient and friendly. We'll definitely return. Found them based on advertising in a mailer we received. Advertising does pay!

    We went here today for lunch and wanted to come here for a while and finally got a chance. I ordered bologna and cheese sandwich. brought bad memories when I was going to school, eating bologna and cheese sandwiches for lunch. I had macaroni salad on the side, which was delicious the service was excellent and very friendly. inside or outside seating, we sat inside lots of things to look at on the walls !! the sandwich is a very large! i'll be back!!

    First time here ,was on my way to an Angel baseball game. Fun place to eat at ,full bar and delicious food I order tuna sandwich ,wow glad I did super fresh very favorable. Bread was so soft and freshly made. Enjoyed a side of macaroni salad. Had a bite of their Italian sandwich ,used good meats and cheese.

    Side of Potato Salad
    Yvette M.

    We were looking for a sandwich spot for our picnic at Carbon Canyon Park and although it was about 6 miles from the park, we made the detour and it was worth it. We loved the vibe from the moment we walked in. You can hang out at the bar, sit outside, or dine at one of the tables. We ordered takeout and the service was fast and friendly. We tried the Pastrami Sandwich that was piled high and included swiss cheese and mustard on rye. A side was also included and we chose potato salad. I loved the two pickle spears that were nicely wrapped on the side. The sandwich was delicious, but we found the potato salad to be a bit bland. We will definitely be back to try more.

    Sheepherder
    Fletcher D.

    Food, ambiance, service, all fantastic. First time eating there, we ordered the Sheepherder ($19) which was packed full of quality meat- it was very good but would have been even better with a side of au-jus for dipping, and the Smash Burger Kelly style (add pastrami and avocado $19). Not really 'smashed' but a hefty double burger that was very tasty. For sides we had fries and a pickled egg with hot honey mustard (strong kick of horseradish)- which was a good on everything. Restaurant vibe was great; a fun, sporty, friendly atmosphere. Our server Kelly was top notch, she was outgoing, great energy, helpful, and she made excellent recommendations. Very impressed. We ate in the dining area but there is also a dog friendly patio. Not cheap, but quality food and good sized portions. Can't wait to go back and try more items on the menu. Give them a try!!

    I'm happy to see that Tony's Deli opened up in Placentia! I was sad to see they left the Anaheim location because it was really close to my job. Their veggie sandwich is my absolute favorite. It's a great size and it comes with a side. I always get their macaroni salad. The service was so quick! I ordered, used the bathroom, and a few minutes after, it was ready. I love that they have seating in their patio and that they have some parking because it can be a challenge on Bradford Avenue. I always appreciate their unique decor. It's such a fun, and lively spot.

    Review 21/365 Day Challenge Finally visited Tonys Deli in Old town Placentia on a Friday for lunch 1.23.26 Heard so much about this Deli on Placentia buzz that relocated from Anaheim. The deli has a pub crawl type of vibe and very welcoming..Server Paige and manager Tawnya were really nice. Didn't feel rush since it's my 1st time visiting and looking over the menu on what to order. For a mid day on a Friday, the deli restaurant was pretty busy, especially at bar. They have big screen projection to host the Super Bowl. And have a few regular tv's at the bar. Interior is a bit busy but it's the vibe Tony's deli is looking for. Like a sports bar with darts game machine to keep you entertained. Have lots of patio seatings There is limited parking on the side of the restaurant. Definitely will return.

    1/2 Boulevard & potato salad
    Randi B.

    I was a fan of the Tony's in Anaheim, so I was happy to see they have reopened in Placentia! I really like this location, they have an outdoor patio and with all the windows and doors it seems much more open and airy inside than their last spot. There is a small parking lot that was filled up when we arrived, but we easily found street parking about a block away. You seat yourself here and they bring you menus. We already knew we wanted to split a Boulevard, which is hot corned beef, pastrami, swiss and Russian dressing on rye. This was always my favorite sandwich there and it is still awesome! We got potato salad as our side and they gave each of us a cup of it, along with a tasty pickle. Lunch was $33 for the sandwich and one beer, we were both walked out full from our massive halves! Service was fast and friendly, I recall the last location being pretty slow. Was happy that is not the case here. Turns out Friday is "free cookie day" and the waitress brought us two large delicious cookies on the house. They were some combo of oatmeal, chocolate chips, coconut, maybe macadamia nuts? Whatever they were, they were super tasty. We will definitely be back!

    Tony's Original Bar & Deli just opened in downtown Placentia. A friend and I stopped by on a Sunday afternoon to check it out. They have their own small freshly paved parking lot on the side of the building, but it was full when we arrived. Luckily there were a few spots available just across the street. Parking may be difficult during prime time, especially with El Faralito just a few doors down. They have a nice patio out front with several tables, all of which have their own umbrella to provide shade on sunny days. They have a good number of tables inside and a full bar. The décor inside is fun with string lights up in the rafters above, and a ton of photos, plaques, signs, and license plates on the walls. It had an energetic vibe inside with great rock music playing, sports on the TVs, and a diverse crowd ranging from kids to seniors and everything in between. I thought you were supposed to go up to the counter to order, but a guy at the counter said just go grab a table and they will come and take your order. Just a few minutes later our order was taken, and our sandwiches came out quick. Service was friendly. I had the Boulevard sandwich (hot Vienna corned beef, pastrami, Swiss cheese, Russian dressing, rye bread, $18.95). It comes with a side, and I had the potato salad. It was a flavorful, good sized sandwich. The bread seemed a little thin and is very soft. Between a good amount of Russian dressing and the thickness of the sandwich, the bread almost turned to mush and it became a bit of a mess to eat. I would ask them to lightly toast the bread next time which would probably help. I liked the potato salad which is on the peppery side. It also comes with a slice of dill pickle. My friend had the Reuben sandwich (pastrami, Swiss cheese, sauerkraut, Russian dressing, rye bread, $18.95). There was apparently a little confusion when he was ordering, and his sandwich didn't come with the sauerkraut in it. He just ate it as-is, and didn't bother pointing it out. He enjoyed his sandwich also and agreed with me that the bread should be toasted a bit. We enjoyed our food, and it has a great atmosphere inside. It is a little on the expensive side at a bit over $20 after tax for a sandwich, but at least it comes with a side and has a good amount of meat. I'll return again periodically.

    Is there any sort of kid's menu?

    We are working on a full one page kids menu, with multiple items and fun things to do. It is still in the development stage and will be coming soon, but until then we do offer the Little Guys Sandwich which comes with their choice of meat, cheese,… 

    Do they feature live music like they used to?

    Not to my knowledge, aside from the recent Tamale Festival.

    Is there an estimate on when the opening will occur? Really looking forward to this addition to Downtown P.

    Me too! Do you have a projected opening date?

The dining room never reached full capacity, but it was about 60% occupied by the time we left. Seating is available both indoors and outdoors. There was one cashier taking orders. We ordered the Montague ($16.75), Romeo ($16.75), and Blueberry Bread Pudding ($8.99). The sandwiches arrived at our table within 7-8 minutes and were piping hot from the panini press. Of the two, I enjoyed the Montague, particularly the garlic sauce. As a big bread pudding fan, I knew I had to try it when I spotted it in the display case. Unfortunately, it didn't live up to expectations. For dine-in orders, it's served warm with a sauce which was a nice touch. However, I wish the menu had noted that it was accompanied by a lemon glaze/sauce. I'm not a fan of lemon-flavored desserts and had I known beforehand, I either would have requested it without the sauce or skipped the dessert altogether. Overall, Stefano's was good, but I had built up a lot of anticipation for this place and it ultimately didn't quite meet my expectations.

Since the sandwich is what brought me here, the food aspect of this visit was very disappointing. Although it was a good sized sandwich, the untoasted bread was dry and the egg salad was sorely lacking in personality. Even after adding copious amounts of Trader Joe's aglio e oglio seasoning, it was beyond help. I ended up only eating half. The cookies would be their redeeming pieces, right? Sadly, no. The cinnamon sugar cookie tasted like a butter cookie; the white chocolate pretzel cookie had sea salt sprinkled on top did not make the other flavors come through. The only part of my meal today that was worth ordering again was the chicken lemon orzo soup. Just having a bigger container of this with some oyster crackers would have been a much more satisfying meal. Even though the food was disappointing, the service would get 4 stars and the cleanliness and ambiance of the restaurant itself would receive 5.
