    Dry Deluxe Cheeseburger
    Anne C.

    This was by far the most disappointing meal I've had from a burger place in a long time. If you were expecting fast, please don't come here. It took 30 minutes AFTER they took our order to get our food with no communication as to why it was taking so long. We'd ordered a regular cheeseburger, a deluxe cheeseburger (no pickle) and a Big Tom. When we got home (approx. 10m later) we found that the burgers were overcooked (next to burnt) and the fries tasted as if they'd been baked or microwaved. I've had good burgers from them in the past so this is EXTREMELY disappointing. I can't speak as to why but the quality has definitely gone down hill.

    Made it back to Tumwater last Spring to try Eagans. Forgot to review, but was memorable enough to warrant another trip after I dropped the wife @ the Capitol. Big Tom Combo w/Onion Rings & tartar sauce. Pineapple Cream Soda in fountain machine was a great choice. Cool old-time interior; pinball machines, soda decor, and an old dial pay phone (151) 555-1492! Sorry, no pics. I was hungry.

    Chili cheese fries with added onions.

    I upped a star this time because, this time our burgers were exactly right and hot, last time neither of our burgers were right. This time I got chili cheese fries and they were delicious and super hot! The only thing and I seriously love this place or else I wouldn't come back but consistently forgets some item from our order and this time they forgot our tots.

    Clam strip basket. 8 were taken out but that is all that remained.

    It has been a few years since I have been here. Came by for a clam strip basket, fish and chips, and 2 milkshakes. Almost $45. My daughter took 8 of the clamstrips and left me with what is in the photo. That was 7 strips of small substance and a bunch of fried dough bits. Totally not worth it for 15 tiny clam strips. I ordered 2 goops and tarter sauce and only got 1. The server was friendly and the shakes were good, but will probably go back to Herfys for these items since Eagans barely gave food for the price they charged. The fish was good. But they are lacking clams in the clam strip basket.

    As a Tumwater native growing up in the 1960s and 1970s, Eagan's Big Tom was the place where we went for burgers and fries when our parents talked us into doing some major house project - cleaning the carpets, painting the living room, or reseeding the lawn. Even at the time, my parents knew it wasn't the healthiest of meals to enjoy, but it was a local establishment, the food was always fresh and undeniably tasty, and a take-out meal from there was always a way to get us to lug furniture or paint a ceiling without complaint. Earlier today, in Tumwater for a dental appointment, I decided to indulge myself with a visit to their Tumwater location - my first in well over a decade. I was pleased to find that the burgers are just as fresh and tasty as ever - Thursday's special was the "Little Tom" with tots and a drink for $13, "little" meaning a half-pound of beef with a half-pound of tots, served with their famous gotta have it "Goop" sauce. It was everything I hoped it would be and everything I remembered that it was, which means that I'm very glad I don't live very close to this restaurant as, if I did, I would quickly weigh as much as your average living room sofa. If you're looking for a classic American hamburger with all the fat and grease and char that makes such things so delicious, then you cannot do better than a visit to Big Tom's. And be sure to order it with a side of Goop while you're at it, too. It ain't gourmet but, lord, it's damned tasty!

    A bit pricey but they have well made burgers here. They also have an ac dining area and some old school arcade games. Their staff are really happy and nice. We picked up food to head to the creek but stopped in to use the restroom. We would definitely come back to dine in if we are craving a burger.

    Who the hell hired these kids? Seriously?!? If you are the owner, and want this business to thrive... get rid of your lazy employees, who can barely annunciate proper English... and ENFORCE A DRESS CODE! I understand that it's a style... but the LAST thing I want to see before I eat, is some kids undergarments hanging freely out of their pants, that are HALFWAY off his ass! I have kids for Pete's sake! My children don't need to see that shit either!

    I can only speak for service. They are always helpful. If you get their attention, they help you immediately. If there is a line in the drive-thru, they will get your order ready whole you wait.

    If you want a good old fashioned griddle-cooked burger in Tumwater, this is the place. Great onion rigs and a long list of shake flavors.

She just responded without any apology...we're backed up and said the cook was their prep cook not their main cook. I didn't see any manager type person on site and there should be someone in charge helping to mitigate when they are staffing issues that create these type of wait times. Customer service was lacking and after the enormous wait time the food was fine, but great. Wanted to support a new business but less than impressed during both visits. Sorry to say. Hopefully this can be addressed for future customers. I'm seeing some other reviews below that seem to be referencing negative experiences with the same person at the counter. Hopefully the owner reads these messages so this can be remedied.

The cucumbers, tomatoes, and onions added so much freshness, and everything came together beautifully. Both dishes looked fantastic when they arrived and tasted every bit as good as they looked.

The server apologized and quickly got us a new coffee! Accidents happen so we were just happy with the quick response to the issue. We ordered the chicken and waffles, Dungeness crab Benedict, and their classic sausage and eggs plate. Chicken and waffles were super good! Crispy chicken, and the waffle was nicely cooked. It also came with a piece of bacon which brought a good saltiness to the syrup. The Dungeness crab Benedict was also amazing! Instead of a crab cake patty, it was just Dungeness crab on top! Definitely prefer it this way because other restaurants tend to skimp on the crab when they do a patty version. The hollandaise sauce on top was nice and creamy and the eggs cooked perfectly. At the end of our meal, we did get the pie of the day. It's a rotating pie everyday. That day, the pie was a blackberry and peach pie. When the pie came out, it was well plated and the crust was flaky and hot. However, the blackberries were still a little frozen on the inside, so I don't think they allowed the pies to thaw out thoroughly before baking. In general, I would give this place a 4 out 5 stars just because service was good and the rest of the food was delicious. The restaurant itself is huge with lots of space for customers. They have a somewhat open kitchen concept, if you walk towards the bathroom you can see the cooks working hard in there. Cool environment and if you're looking for a place to have brunch and drinks I would recommend visiting.

Food: Seafood Rosé Pasta (bay scallops, shrimp, northwest manila clams, rosé prosecco cream sauce, grilled bread) -- inconsistent cook on the different seafoods & the sauce was meh. Not worth $42.00 Grilled Romaine Salad (white balsamic bleu cheese dressing, gorgonzola, cherry tomatoes, aleppo toasted hazelnuts) -- plenty of romaine, could've been grilled longer / not much quantity of tomatoes or toasted hazelnuts -- basically a "side salad" for $15.00 Lobster Bisque (house smoked tomatoes, roasted red pepper, cream, butter poached langoustine lobster) -- tasted more like roasted tomato / red pepper soup (no lobster or seafood flavors) - there were 4 small pieces of poached?? langoustine lobster on top - I question poached because the pieces definitely had a bite to them. Worth $15.00 -- no. Due to reviews we had the Baklava Crumble (pistachios, honey, vanilla ice cream) -- basically cut up (very chewy, not crispy) baklava tossed over ice cream for $14.00 -- maybe a bad night for this dessert? We like to support small Olympia businesses and will go back for cocktails but the food costs are too high - we don't mind high costs IF we come away satisfied - unfortunately the food didn't measure up to the cost. As we drove away, we saw the "Budd Bay Cafe" was very busy - I think next time we'll have cocktails at Cynara, then cross the street for food and wine. We were intrigued with the "Clam Chowder Entrée" which is served à la minute (Washington manila clams, bacon, cream, celery, roasted potatoes, grilled bread) -- is it a deconstructed chowder?? $33.00 Sorry no pics.
