I came by here when I was craving a chili cheese burger. I've passed by this restaurant many times and decided to finally pop in. The burger was decent, it could've used a little more chili and a thinner slice of tomato. The fries were seasoned well & were very tasty. Next time I'm in the area, I might try a bacon cheeseburger. read more

Big Tomy's - Burgers Near Me - Los Angeles, California

so my kid has been wanting to eat here since he was 6 or 7. Maybe younger. That was a long time ago, long before the revamp. We decided to finally try it. It's basic classic burger fare, plus Mexican food. I got a 1/4 lb burger, he got the chili burger and the little fry got a hot dog. The burger was good. The bun was a little too crispy for me, but that's ok. I didn't notice they put thousand island or whatever spread on it. I would have had that left off had I paid attention. Luckily it wasn't a ton of a quick wipe with a napkin on both sides got most of it off. The chili burger was yummy. I had a small bite of that. The hot dog was hot doggy. The only thing that was a little off was the fountain drinks. The Pepsi and Diet Pepsi didn't really taste like Pepsi. That was odd. The decor was fun and bright. It wasn't even bad sitting next to the window on Pico. Next time I'd do the outdoor patio though. Seemed like a fun option. Overall, happy we finally tried this longstanding burger stand. read more

I'm in the area on Friday's, and order by Phone. Ol' school. The order is ready when I arrive. Staff's amiable and polite. Few times I've been I order the same chicken burrito w/ everything. I also copped a chicken taco. They add chips and salsa. The burrito is enormous, filled with/ a gang of juicy Charbroiled chicken, rice, beans, cheese, guacamole, and it's fire! The taco is loaded with chicken, onions, and tastes like a huge good street taco. Not on par with the burrito but still certified. Despite being in a seedy area, right under a 405 underpass, the place itself is clean. Floors, tables, counters- you can tell are bussed frequently. Recommended read more

If you're on the Westside of LA and have a hankering for a Tommy's chili cheese burger, this will do. It's as close to Tommy's without the extra 'm'. The chili is pretty close to the real deal and they slop it on. I got the chili fries loaded with onions and cilantro. Ask for the banana peppers (pepperoncinis)....so good together. Pro tip: wear shirts you don't mind getting stained. And loose pants. It's hard to stop eating all that good stuff. read more

This place is great for chili cheese burgers and fries. The restaurant is spotless every time I come here. The staff are helpful and friendly. The prices are reasonable because most places chili cheese pastrami fires are like 20 bucks they start at 12.99 here. I definitely recommend this spot it's open late also. I have been coming to this location for over 15 years. read more

Big Tommy's made itself available to us and we stopped to have a chili cheese burger. And onion rings. Well we really liked the onion rings Crispy and sweet onion goodness. If you like onion rings then these are a must. Made there not bought. The chilli cheese burger was good char broiled which is rare.. so good points maybe could have used a little more chilli... the mustard is very tart but the balance is just a little off. It's was a messy cheesy gooey smashed charbroiled burger. It hit the spot. The people working there are lively and clearly happy to be there and are proud of their product. Typical but clean burger joint. The orange bang topped it off. Just about a perfect Los Angeles burger experience!! read more

What I Ordered: -Pastrami Breakfast Burrito $12.29 + Pico de Gallo $1.59 Total $13.88 I really want to like Big Tomy's! Their early hours are convenient for my schedule. This is my second attempt at their breakfast burrito. I chose the Pastrami Breakfast Burrito with Pico de Gallo, as I read a positive review. The Pastrami Breakfast Burrito with Pico de Gallo is the best I've had here so far. However, it's overly focused on potatoes and needs more eggs. They seem to add extra home fries to bulk it up, but the potato flavor is too strong, even for a meat and potatoes enthusiast like me. The staff are friendly and will gladly provide extra salsa. Props to them! I'll have to hold off on Big Tony's for now. I hope they address the egg quantity and reduce the potato content in the burrito. I won't be back until I can confirm those changes. For now, I'm heading back to The Corner for the most consistently delicious breakfast burrito on the Westside. read more

My family was over this weekend from San Diego. We woke up on Sunday morning and didn't really wanna go anywhere so we ordered breakfast from big Tommy's it never disappoints. Everything was very tasty. We ordered a variety of items. The breakfast burrito is huge and delicious. My cousin and I both ordered this item. Her husband ordered the 2+2+2 which comes with hashbrowns two eggs, your choice of meat and toast and jelly or pancakes her son ordered a Philly cheesesteak. He said it was very delicious. Came with mushrooms and peppers. I've been frequently in this place for many years they have a delicious burger and the french fries and onion rings can't be beat! This is just a little corner hole in the wall, but if you want good food at a good price point I fully recommend this place. The parking lot is tiny, but if you go before the lunch crowd, you can usually find parking. It's a family friendly place and all the food is very delicious. read more

Everything here is amazing! The cheeseburger is insane! The fries n onion rings on fire!

Had the two taco plate. Absolutely perfect. The neighborhood is lucky. Wish I could have stayed another night for another meal.

Good food for good deals, I can't complain. I recommend zucchini fries and the burger, but everything is good. Friendly staff too

Grew up going to Tommy. Unfortunately since they reopened it hasn't been the same. On my most recent visit the price of chili cheese pastrami fries was quite high considering the small amount of pastrami & cheese. I was disappointed but they still have some of my favorite chili. They may have been having an off day. I do like that they have a good amount of parking available and fairly quick service. If you're in a rush I highly suggest you call ahead as sometimes it can be slammed. read more

Big Tomy's - Cheeseburger combo - Burgers Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Man, I normally don't like writing reviews but I really have to write one now. Bought myself a asada burrito and a taco and didn't know they deep fry the asada meat( I don't know if they use the same oil for the fries but wouldn't be surprised if they did). My burrito was showered in grease. I don't mind grease but this was extremely greasy. I don't like causing problems so I just threw away the burrito and the taco without taking one bite. Staff is very nice btw read more

Stopped in for my first time last night because I live extremely close. Know they used to be 24 hours prior to the fire but now they are open early and close very late. It's a traditional to go oriented spot where you can also dine in. They have traditional American and Mexican options and the free parking lot attached which is a real bonus. Pricing is also fair and the menu is large. They are most known for their Chili Cheeseburger so I wanted to try that for my first time. I will say it was seasoned well and the chili has a great taste. I don't order that often so it was nice trying it again. The patties are not very large, almost the size of In-N-Out but a little larger. We also ordered the BLT with Avocado and overall it was OK because there was not much bacon in it compared to other places that I've been to recently. If they would add more bacon and Dijon, it would make it much better. We also ordered the french fries which I would suggest splitting one order because two orders is really a lot of fries and one would really cover enough for two people. read more

Big Tomy's is a great old school place to grab your breakfast burritos, burgers, and Mexican food all in one place. We got the classic hamburger, double chili cheese burger, chili cheese dog, and chili cheese fries. Great portions for the price. Delicious and simple. Food came out quickly and had great condiments available (ranch, thousand island, and banana peppers). Support local! read more

I ordered the chicken tenders.... came out very burnt. I just couldn't believe they would serve something so overcooked. really disappointing. read more

Big Tomy's - Burgers Near Me - Los Angeles, California

There are a few Big Tomy's. This one is pretty nice. Parking is free in the lot and there is always a space. It is clean inside and out and the cooking area is also kept very clean. We will try this place again. Maybe they were having a bad night or we ordered the wrong thing. They have a big menu that includes everything from breakfast to burgers, to Mexican food. What we had was just average. We ordered rice and beans, chips, guacamole, and a chili burger. The rice was dry as if it had been sitting in a heating area for sometime. The beans were watery and just not great. It went in the trash. The guacamole was super good and it tasted like they made it there. The chips were also tasty. I had a chili burger, which I think could have been very good, but it was cooked so well done that the edges were all burned. The chili was fine, but not great. The bun seemed fresh. It was not good enough to eat and it went in the trash. Despite this experience we will try them again and this time order something different. The service is just really nice and fast. The place is comfortable and relaxing. I know this place can be good, so we will give it another go at a later time. read more

Big Tomy's - bacon cheese burger - Burgers Near Me - Los Angeles, California

This is a solid neighborhood gem that offers indulgent, comforting food at very reasonable prices. Added bonus is the easy parking and the outdoor patio. We ordered the patty melt, fried chicken sandwich, and fries--all served a la carte. Patty Melt: Surprisingly, it comes with two patties for just around $7! Very flavorful and satisfying. Crispy Chicken Sandwich: I was expecting something closer to a chicken tender sandwich, but it turned out to be a breaded, fried ground chicken patty. While it was a bit mild in flavor, the crunchy crust was fantastic. I was impressed with the quality, as it seemed to be made from ground white meat without any of the gristly bits you sometimes find. Fries: Classic, well-executed fries--crispy and golden. Next time, I'll definitely try the chili fries since these would make a perfect base for something heartier. In summary, this is a great go-to spot when you're craving burger joint fare. It's affordable, tasty, and the quality far exceeds what you'd get from your typical fast-food chain. read more

Great experience! We went around 8PM for dinner one evening, and there was ample parking in the back. Service was very friendly and the restaurant was quite clean, especially the flat top (where they cook). It was exceptionally clean. Burgers were great for the price, and the fries were tasty as well. I know a lot of people like their chili, but we didn't personally enjoy it. It was a bit bitter to me. No problem though, as I just won't get chili next time. The interior is also cute for a fast food place, and has lots of seating. We'll 100% be back! read more

Big Tomy's - Tomy Burger - Burgers Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I had eaten here last week and got a very good breakfast burrito while working. I was in the area today and decided to stop in. I got a cheeseburger and fries. The amount of fries they give is very generous and well cooked. They were hot but needed a little more seasoning for me but still very good. The cheeseburger was one of the best I have had a a burger joint. Nice char great flavor and very juicy. The topping lettuce, tomato, onion and pickle were very fresh and really good. I honestly wasn't expecting much for what I ordered but very happy with how it turned out. I definitely would recommend giving this place a try if you come across it. While eating my meal I did notice how busy this place actually is. Lots of food being taken to go. read more

Came in to get a cheeseburger and fries. Cheeseburger is huge and tasty, fries are good too. I asked if they sell the chili cheese separately and they do! i got a small side of chili cheese with onions. It comes in a coffee cup and is $4 something. They do have ranch and chilis for condiment sides. Got some of that as well. Service is always fast and friendly. always love supporting local small businesses. read more

Been here once and all I can say is amazing chili burger! We don't usually crave something like this, but when we do, Big Tony's HITS THE SPOT. Staff were super kind even though when we went they had an upset (intoxicated) customer throw water at them. Still, the ambiance is chill diner vibes and we loved loved loved the chili burger with their recommended secret sauce on the side. Much love Big Tomy's, hope you stay around forever! read more

Tried Big Tony's out while getting my car fixed down the road. Great pastrami sandwich with fast service and reasonable prices.

It's mine boggling that I never found the time to leave a review on this phenomenal Location and Business. All the men that work here happy and in a positive energy and disposition which quite frankly it's surprising when ordering from fellow local restaurants that are as busy as this location. I've recently found myself addicted to this location since they're reopening. The chili cheese fries are massive they take a whole container or they fill it with fries top it with chili and cheese hi personally like to add onions and cilantro and salsa to the top I usually get it on the side because it's a hit and miss if they add too much or not enough. I reckon this is the reason why I don't have a flat tummy but I am content with that and happy nevertheless as I am a true foodie! You must get a cup of ice if not a fountain drink or an ice water they have shaved ice that reminds me of a snow cone which is a rarity with local businesses in West LA on a hot day it's the best thing you could ask for(update the charge a dollar ice now) Tip them! They work hard! Talk to text(will edit) read more

stopping there on the way to Mar Vista in the morning. A few times a week I've been getting a breakfast burrito there and every time it is simply delicious. This location has been upgraded and is a cleaner version of the big Tommy brand around town. The service is always polite and even in the face of dealing with customers that are completely out of control. The staff has remained calm and collected. read more
