Service was reasonably good but the food was cheap, tasteless and definitely overpriced for what it was. Had the Chicken Parmesan, normally a favorite of mine but the sauce was watery and bland and the chicken wasnt fully breaded, it looked like it had just been sprinkled with a couple of ground up croutons before being cooked. Could have done the entire meal at home for far less with far better taste. Ordered appetizers as well, and the onion rings are actually french-fried onions- which are NOT ONION RINGS. Also theyre in the middle of apparently changing their menu so half of the items listed are not actually available, the poor waitress had to keep trying to explain what wasnt available, what was still available but had been changed significantly from its menu description, etc. Definitely not worth the $20 spent.

Tic Toc is under new ownership and OH MY GOSH!! It is simply the BEST place to eat in Boone. Absolutely homemade fresh from the greenhouse food, breads, pastas and soups. I had the Cream of Lettuce Soup and it was simply to die for! All you can eat and believe me I ate ALOT! Free homemade bread with garlic/basil/olive oil for dipping. This is the ONLY restaurant I have ever seen the dipping sauce have garlic and it is the ONLY one that tasted good (IN my Opinion!). If you pass this place up you will be missing the best place in town. I am so glad we gave it another try (we had stopped going to the old Tic Toc as it was so bad). We will make this place a regular for us and you should too!

Went there for the first time for my birthday. I wasnt expecting a bar, but we decided to give it a chance. I wish we hadnt. It was the worst thing ever. Our waitress was unhappy and rude. Never once came and asked us while we were eating if it was good or if we needed anything. At the beginning of the meal, we asked for something simple, she proceeded to go to a table of her friends and talk to them for about five minutes, then go to the kitchen and grab what we had asked for. My steak was over cooked and super chewy. Not worth the $15 I payed. I couldnt even finish it, and I LOVE steak... Will NEVER go back!!!

We had gone when Tic Toc was under a previous owner. We had a not so great experience. But we wanted to give the new owners a chance by going there for a family meal. It was GREAT!! The food is amazing and the abiance is wonderful!! The oil served with the bread needs to be bottled and sold! It was so good! We enjoyed our experience. The only thing that keeps me from giving it 5 stars is that we were a little shell shocked by the prices. It is a little expensive as a family meal estblishment. However; we will definitely be back for special occasions!

Horrible!!!!!! The waitress was moody, a smart mouth and insulted my family - my MILITARY family. She was mumbling, she was inconsiderate! The wait was long (like an hour long - since there was 8 in my party) , and there was a total of four or five other people there. They kept "running out" of the products that we wanted after we apparently made her angry and she got our orders wrong... Twice after we already sent it back. I will never go there again. Ever. We should have got her name.... Upside though: The fries were good.

The new Tic Toc is a breath of fresh air in Boone ! From the moment you walk in the door Victor and his family make you feel at home . We are from Chicago and feel that the food here rivals the best Italian restaurants in our area ! There are always great specials daily for lunch and dinner and they will accommodate any special dietary requests . Give the Tic Toc a try , you wont , be disappointed !!

Superb service, Excellent food. Every meal prepared perfectly, and the presentation is mouth watering as well. Definitely heads above its iconic name. Change the name to Victors Italian Trattoria and just about everything you ever wanted in a restaurant is all in one place. Welcome to Boone Victor! I hope this review helps draw the crowds.....

Absolutely love the owner! Hes the nicest Italian fella ive ever met, and he truly cares about your experience and the food! It is expensive but well worth it!

Food is amazing! Staff is great! HOWEVER! The owner is piece of work who treats his employees poorly (yelling at them, belittles them, disrespects them, and verbally tears them down.) Blames anything that goes wrong on anyone else, doesnt take responsibility for anything he has done wrong.

Have been here several times and absolutely love it. The food is amazing as well as the above board service. Victor is the best host ever and makes a bad ass bloody mary. Boone is very fortunate to have such a great place to dine.

An excellent restaurant to go to when you are in the mood for delicious Italian food. Not very busy a good Italian vibe. Vinny (the guy who knew the place) is a very nice and well mannered man. Great food and great deserts.
