Live Music and Caviar Flights: Tony’s Has a New Groove

Live Music and Caviar Flights: Tony’s Has a New Groove

Caviar — chef Kate's favorite condiment — at Tony's

SITTING WITH TONY’S chef Kate McLean, she muses “caviar is my favorite condiment.” It’s a statement proven by the fact that that’s no shortage of caviar on her revamped menu at fine-dining stalwart Tony’s; there’s even a caviar flight with three piles of the savory fish eggs served with all the accoutrements and a shot of chilled vodka. The decadent dishes pair well with another new addition at Tony’s: live music in the middle of the dining room.

The storied restaurant for Houston society — who can forget the iconic ’90s-era photo by Annie Leibovitz of Lynn Wyatt out to lunch — is changing up the feel on select nights with the addition of interactive musicians and more tableside presentations. A rep for Tony’s describes it as, “if you mixed The Carlyle in NYC meets live fire from Chef Kate!”

Still with top-notch service and delectable dishes, the overall mood is jazzier, and with more surprising presentations. Ice-cold martinis are shaken at the table, full fish presented on fire, and cotton candy dramatically adorned with sparklers.

Now through August, every Friday and Saturday night, crooner Miguel Delabarca performs in the dining toom. P.S. As always, don’t miss the chocolate souffle, served with the extra flair of ooey, gooey, warm, melted chocolate poured atop tableside.

Leadership in Action: CEO Theresa Roemer Credits Mother, Mentors and Mindset for Accomplishments

How did you get to where you are today? My journey to where I am today is built on a foundation of hard work, dedication, and perseverance. Every step along the way, I faced obstacles, but I approached each one with determination and a “never give up” mindset. Instead of being discouraged by challenges, I used them as opportunities to grow and improve. Consistency was key—I committed to showing up and giving my best effort every day. I also learned not to take “no” as a final answer. Instead, I saw it as a chance to push harder, adapt, and find another way forward. It’s this combination of persistence, resilience, and unwavering focus that has brought me to where I am today.
