Tony’s Pizza

I love this place. Best pizza in Manitowoc. Thin crust and generous toppings. Friendly service.

We will never order from them again! Two weeks ago they made a mistake and told me that we have a credit of 8 dollars… So today when we ordered they said we only could have $ 1 dollar off of my purchase. That’s ridiculous! When I asked to speak with the manager they said there was no manager and she’s the only one there… We’re so disappointed, so we just told them we’ll never going to order again and she said ok bye really?!

Service: Very unfriendly. My girl friend from a previous employer and I went there to catch up because we hadn’t seen each other in a while. Very inattentive and we honestly felt like we were bothering her. I don’t think I saw a smile the entire service.
Atmosphere: Boring-​old school. Kind of dirty. Looks like the place hasn’t had a deep clean in a while. The décor looks like it did 5 years ago when you walk in. The bathroom had toilet paper on the floor; the paper towel dispenser hadn’t been refilled in a while since there were 2 rolls on the counter for people to use.
Food: Mediocre at best. All the pasta is from a box or is frozen (very typical for Manitowoc County). The sauce had minimal flavor. Asked for several items to try and jazz up the shrimp ravioli with alfredo (asked for fresh spinach mixed into the sauce-​which is something their kitchen does not have apparently-​kind of freaks me out about what the spinach dip is actually made of) and lemon to add some brightness to the very bland dish. I received some lemons out of the bar trays and fresh basil instead. I was so hungry that I devoured it reluctantly since it was 7:30 p.m. at night.
Would not go back considering I can make something with more flavor at home for less-​and with a smile of my own!

Ever since the ownership changed hands this place has gone downhill. The pizza went from the best in town to one of the worst. Prices are outrageous. I can get 5 very tasty frozen pizzas for one 18″ of there’s. Between 5 of us we each got 2 pieces (square might i add) and it cost $ 5 per person. Sad but I won’t be going back.

A pizza saved my life tonight. After a cold sailing trip on Lake Michigan we ordered a pizza to the dock. It arrived just after we tied up. Steaming hot.
And tasty! The pizza was thin and fresh. Flaky crust, well spiced.
Craig, our delivery driver, who also said that he made the pizza was prompt, courteous, and pleasant. I’ll be back whenever I’m in town.
I reccomend this place highly.

The pizza was good, although not what we ordered. Service was slow and we couldn’t find our waitress, so we ate it. When we told the waitress, who finally showed up, that she brought us the wrong pizza, she wasn’t too concerned about it. The place sure isn’t like it was when Tony owned it.

We were visiting the Manitowoc, Maritime Museum and not being familiar with the Manitowoc area I placed my trust into the hands of my fellow Unilocalers. After a general survey of the family, pizza was the top choice. Referencing Unilocal and reading over a few reviews, Tony’s Pizza seemed to be a sure bet.
Upon entry you clearly notice the good size bar, which I’ll admit, looked very inviting and wouldn’t mind giving it a test run some winter evening. There is a small dinning area and I would say even with the bar, it is family friendly. In fact, there were three other families there all with toddler aged kids.
We were hungry and I noticed on the menu for each size pizza they gave how many it feeds. So, considering this and family size we ordered two, medium pizzas, a Hawaiian, and the other with Sausage & Pepperoni. I also noticed from other tables they cut the pizza in those small squares, and asked for our pizza’s to be cut in the traditional pie shape, which they did. While waiting for the pizza, the waitress brought out some garlic bread which was devoured rather quickly.
When they brought the pizza’s to the table I knew right away we ordered way too much pizza and their suggested number on the menu is way off ! The waitress notice my surprise and with some laughter she remarked, «they are bigger than you expected.» The thought of, «well you could have warned us that the pizzas are big here would have been nice. » but I didn’t say this, as she was doing a real good job. overall.
The pizza came out HOT! It smelled delicious, it looked delicious and it WAS delicious. I personally liked the large pieces of sausage and the crust was really nice too. No pizza bones left with this pizza !
We really enjoyed the pizza and due to their size, we had plenty of leftovers to take home, which didn’t make it to the next day as the kids munched on it sometime during the night.
Clearly, if we are in the area again, we’ll certainly be coming back here.

Spent a night in manitowoc and ate here for dinner, we had cheese curds for an app, they were great. I had an Italian beef sandwich, my buddy had a pizza, we both thought the food was great. We drank spotted cow, friendly staff.

Every year I ride in the Scenic Shore 150 bike ride and we stay in Manitowoc the first night. Tony’s has become part of our annual trip. The pizza can’t be beat and the patio is a great place to enjoy the food. Always friendly staff and very reasonable prices.

Disappointed, ordered pizza while in town for a conference, pizza was nearly inedible due to every piece of sausage being comprised mostly of gristle. Too bad.

The BLT pizza is absolutely amazing. Deep fried ravioli and spinach artichoke dip were the best we have ever tasted. The staff and great drinks made my visit awesome. We will return.

One of our favorite thin crust pizza places when we get back to Wisconsin.

Overall pretty good. The best attempt at everyday Italian food in WI. I had their Stuffed Pizza (a small feeds like 8 people) and put in a special request to the kitchen to make it with chicken parmesan. They said they have never done it before but it came out pretty good — I appreciated the effort.
The pizza was burnt in spots on the bottom but overall you can’t beat the price for what you get. I’d give them a try again when in town.

Pizza was okay. Bacon on the meat lovers was raw and kinda ruined the rest of the pie. Speaking of ruined, one of the people sitting at the next table was very loud, so loud that I asked the waitress to possibly move us. She told me that the person at the other table was the OWNER! Wow!

Excellent Italian food, the alfredo sauce is made with real cheese, not something out of a can Pizza is one of the best in the area.

We had the Gyro pizza. My wife said «I can’t believe how much I like this pizza.»
And then she said it again. About six times. And then once more the next day after she’d eaten the leftovers. (for the record, I liked it too. ’twas loaded with gyro meat, onions and gyro sauce or whatever that stuff is technically called.)
The spinach and artichoke tip was also very good. The garlic bread was a little «meh,» but it’s called «Tony’s Pizza,» not «Tony’s Garlic Bread» right? So get a pizza and you’ll be golden.

Their pizza isn’t good like it used to be, all of my family has stopped ordering from Tony’s. It seems to always be busy, but it can’t be for the pizza.

Excellent food, great atmosphere, not a typical small town pizzaria. When you walk in it has a large city quality feel to it, with typical Wisconsin friendliness and warmth! Bottom line before you dine, step in line and await your wine and za here!

Always great food and service the lasagna was so good. We can’t go without the spinach and artichoke dip either!
