" Fat Tony's is my go-to spot whenever I’m in Wilmington. The atmosphere is vibrant, and there’s something about dining here that makes it feel special. Personally, I’m a huge fan of their baked ziti—it’s cheesy, decadent, and always satisfies my cravings. We sat on the patio, and although it got a little warm, the breeze was refreshing. The staff is always friendly and attentive. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a nice meal with family or friends. " (*Curated Review*)

" I am picky about Italian food, and this restaurant hit the mark! Oysters in the chowder were fresh and delicious. The bread served on the side was nice and warm, enhancing the entire meal. Location is lovely, and the open-air patio seats offer a nice view of the waterfront. Overall, I had a pleasant experience, despite slight delays in food service. " (*Curated Review*)

" Fat Tony's is where I took my friends visiting from out of town, and they absolutely loved everything! They could not stop raving about how authentic the flavors were. Everyone ordered something different, and we all shared. The baked ziti was particularly a hit! It was glorious and cheesy, with an ample portion size that we couldn't finish it all. The atmosphere made for a delightful dining experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" Visited Fat Tony's with expectations based on friends' reviews, and I wasn't let down! The ambiance has this down-to-earth charm, and the food speaks authenticity. I had the penne vodka which was creamy and perfectly seasoned, while my friend enjoyed the meatball napoletana. Each bite was delightful! The service was quick, making it a perfect spot for lunch. Highly recommend! " (*Curated Review*)

" We had a great experience here! It was nice to see how accommodating the staff were to our large party. The pizza and pasta were excellent, resonating with true Italian flavors. I particularly enjoyed how they allowed us to mix and match dishes for the table. The outdoor seating was slightly cramped, but the charm of the place made it all worthwhile. " (*Curated Review*)

" Came here after hearing the buzz and I was not disappointed! The pizza is to die for—definitely one of the best I’ve had in years. Fresh ingredients and a perfectly crisp crust. I highly appreciate that the server was very knowledgeable about the menu and helped us make our choices. The ambiance is lively, making it a great place for friends to gather. I will be returning soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" This was my first time here, and it was PACKED! We had to wait for a table, but it was worth it. Once seated, we enjoyed a wonderful meal. The servers were buzzing around but made sure we were taken care of. The portion sizes were generous too! The pasta dishes looked so good that I want to come back just to try them all!
