Toonez Chophouse in Marion, NC
What is a Toonez? It is a slightly dirty, dry gin martini with three olives. It is the place where friends and family gather for good food and good times. It is the time of day when work is done and that five o’clock cocktail hits the proverbial spot. It is the state of mind where you can leave your cares behind and just relax. This word was coined by Carey and Regina’s dear friend to encompass this experience. In honor and remembrance of him, they have had a “toonez” in their homes throughout their travels. Toonez Chophouse brings the experience home to beautiful, downtown Marion NC.
Toonez Chophouse is a family owned and operated legacy restaurant. Carey and Regina Fortune, with their sons Chris and Logan, and daughter-in-law Christy are combining their passion, their expertise and their love for good southern hospitality into the newest destination steakhouse and tavern in western North Carolina.
Toonez Chophouse is an upscale dining establishment fancy enough for date night and comfortable enough for family night. Featuring steaks, chicken and pork chops lovingly prepared and seasoned just right. Mouth-watering weekend specials will be highlighting the best of local cuisine and old-fashioned favorites.
Don’t let the ambiance fool you. Toonez isn’t an over-priced steakhouse. Fresh ground burgers starting at $12, steaks, chicken and chops from $15 to $25. Fresh baked bread, a choice of sides, cocktails, draft beers and a robust wine selection and cheesecake for dessert. All we can say is, Relax, it’s time for the Toonez Experience!
