Dinner at Tony’s was everything I wanted and more! I had an excellent fettuccine with scallops, shrimp and lobster. It was piping hot and insanely delicious. My husband had the rack of lamb which was incredibly flavorful and tender. We ended the night with the tiramisu which was something I had been craving for a few weeks (12 weeks pregnant) and it 100% satisfied that craving! The service was excellent, the ambiance was fun and Tony himself came over to thank us for coming. Highly recommend getting a meal here when you’re in the area!

Has the lunch menu which is great value: mushroom veloute and branzino a la plancha. The dining room was full at lunchtime on a weekday which was surprising. Service was nevethless efficient and dishes were served promptly and cooked to perfection. Never a surprise at L"Escale.
