I stopped in Barstow for a quick meal. They have 3 Locations Including Barstow, CA, Las Vegas,NV and Henderson,NV. I ordered the Breakfast Sandwich muffin. Make sure to have napkins because it's very messy. To be honest, the chili sauce was very bland and a little creamy. It's definitely missing some flavor. I would describe it more as a spread. I don't think I'll be checking out the Nevada locations when im out there if they are anything like this one read more

All the food was really good, but the customer service was trash. Didn't receive a greeting, How can I help you, a smile, not a single word. Gave my credit card to the girl at the register, she swiped it and gave me back my receipt. Still never saying a single word. With a very unpleasant, non approachable look on her face throughout the whole transaction. Keep up the great work when it comes to making good tasting food Tommy's. But the girl working the register with the neck tattoo of one of her baby daddys names, seriously needs to work on her poor customer service. read more

One of my favorite stops to make on the way to Vegas! The male employee was helpful when I asked him questions about the menu. He didn't try to rush the ordering process. They also gave a generous amount of chili, more than I usually receive from the LA locations. The restaurant was clean and food was delicious! read more

I don't get it. So many people love this place. I was there only one time. Burger was okay but the chili ... wow. Very greasy with a gummy texture. Major acid reflux attack ! I'll take In-n-Out over Tommy's anyday. read more

I stopped by Tommy's to grab a bit to eat while in Barstow. I ordered chili cheese beef tamales and a medium chili. I've heard this place is pretty good so I definitely had to try it out. The chili cheese tamales are delicious they even put onions, picked and a tomato slice on top. The chili is definitely made as a topper for a dish and in my opinion not to be eaten alone. I know, I know, you're probably like what am I talking about? Well, the chili is extremely thick and the texture is more like a paste nit anything like you average chili. It's tastes good, it's just a texture thing for me. The inside is pretty basic for a fast food join it was I will say it is every clean inside and the staff a super friendly and brought my food to the car. I will try them again the have burgers, hotdogs and serve breakfast. Keep in mind the fries are cooked in peanut oil. read more

This location never disappoints! Food is always delicious and workers are always so kind!

Just because it's Tommy's. Been stopping in for many years in transit to or from the high desert regions. Just as good as store #1. This staff was super friendly and super responsive to this seasoned customer. I knew what I wanted, and they didn't hesitate to fill my request. I have a deep story about growing up with the Tommy's family, so all of the stores are special when I am allowed the opportunity. I always get the #1 double combo and a tamale with everything and hot peppers to complete the flavor. Do it! Get some! I did and even brought one home for our Italian house guest. I even got him a Tommy's t-shirt. Now they are international. Dicks read more

Came here at 9am on the way to Vegas. Got chili cheese dogs and chili cheese fries. Everything was fresh and smothered in tons of chili and cheese. The hot dogs are a great size and the service was great. I usually always take photos, but we absolutely devoured the food immediately haha. I also love that they have Manzanita Sol. Everything was delicious! read more

Diane and I arrived here just before midnight, on our way to Redlands from North Las Vegas. Almost no other place but Denny's was open in Barstow or in Victorville, so we appreciated being able to assuage our hunger during a late dinner here. My 1000 Island Cali Cheeseburger was well done, with unmelted cheese and only a thin veneer of 1000 Island Dressing. But pickle chips inside a cold, plain bun were very good, along with a fresh slice of tomato, a slice of cheese, and White Onion squares. French Fries were tender and okay, but there were not enough of them. A Chili Dog contained rather spicy but good bean-free Chili, tasty pickle chips, a large fresh slice of tomato, pieces of White Onion, and a thin hot dog nestled inside a plain bun at room temperature. The wiener impressively yielded a noticeable snap when biting into its casing. Workers here were industrious and friendly. The dining room for this casual eatery is industrial in design but well lit. read more

Unfortunately experience. I was out in Barstow for work and wanted to have their breakfast so at 8:01 we were in line at the drive through. After waiting a few minutes we drove up to the window. No one greeted us or told us anything even though we saw someone through the window. We then parked and tried to walk into the building to eat however the door was locked. The hours of operations was posted for 8:00 AM. Please do not post those hours if you do not open at that time. read more

I have been dreaming about the breakfast burrito since I saw it on tiktok. I knew there was one in Barstow so I made a stop between Las Vegas and San Diego. The woman (probably the mgr) was rude and I'm not sure why. Maybe because I tried paying with Amex, which they don't take? Got my burrito and was excited, though it seemed super small and skinny compared to what I'd seen posted on social media. Opened it up, neither side of the tortilla was folded (it was open on both sides- rolled like a rolled taco, not folded so all the fillings would totally fall out). Then I strategically ate it because of this, when I discovered whoever built the burrito either didn't on purpose to troll me, or had never built a burrito. The eggs were in the top 1/3, the sausage was scooped in the middle 1/3, and the chili was scooped in the bottom 1/3. I essentially ate tortilla+egg, then tortilla+sausage, then tortilla+chili. I threw it out (they don't have hot sauce I guess) so it would've been dry to eat anyways. Definitely a waste of $10 and 10 minutes. I guess I got to use the bathroom during my long drive though! Other Tommy's locations must be better- I can't imagine this burrito construction would be acceptable elsewhere. And not hot sauce for a breakfast burrito is weird, but maybe Tommy's just doesn't have hot sauce? Weird experience and will never risk trying a Tommy's anywhere else. read more

Bounced outta Vegas on a Saturday morning without getting any sustenance and there was no way we were gonna make it back to SoCal without stopping for grub somewhere. Hubbers suggested this place, and that's when we learned SIL has never had Tommy's ever... EVER! Barstow, it is! (And we needed to get gas anyway, so...) We came through not too long after opening, so we were glad to see no other customers but us. We were getting hunger pangs so the timing was perfect. I guess most of our eyes were much hungrier than our stomachs because we ordered way too much food. I went for the combo #3 added chili to the fries. Cashier asked if I wanted to upgrade to a quarter pound and I think I inadvertently answered YES without really understanding her question. But eh, no biggie... ... also! Had I known everyone else in my party ordered combos, I would have skipped out on the chili fries! But anyway... if you're familiar with Tommy's, this one stands its ground. The food is prepped exactly like it is prepped at their original stand located at Beverly & Rampart/Los Angeles. The chili has that very distinct and original aroma and taste. The fries were cooked borderline well-done so it held strong against the drench of the chili topping. The patty was cooked a perfect medium and the chili elevated its overall flavor. This is Tommy's burger, indeed! FOOD: 5. Albeit 2-3 hours away from its original stand, it tastes exactly as it should! SERVICE: 3. Not a lot of interaction. Food came out quick - reasonable considering we were the only customers at the time. VALUE: 4. More than fair. You get plenty for what you pay for. PARKING: Private lot and street. Not an issue. OVERALL: 4. Hubbers is a huge fan, so he was happy-happy. Big Bro hasn't had this for some time, so it took him down memory lane. SIL finally got to try it and liked it. Lastly, I was satisfied. :) There are tons of eateries around this area but Tommy's stands alone. Future visits? You bet... read more

Better than your average fast food. I guess they are famous for the chili. I don't know I wasn't a huge fan but it wasn't bad either. The hamburger and fries however were awesome! The service was quick and friendly. The atmosphere is that of a in and out or something of that nature. All and all a good experience. I'll definitely be back but hold the chili next time. read more

Food was good, not great. Big shoes to fill, I guess! It shouldn't be called the "original" because this location comes up short. There were a couple of broken glass doors, not sure how safe this place is. It's the Tommy's of Barstow. read more

Back in the day, Tommy's was the spot to go for a chili cheese burger any time of day in downtown LA. Especially after midnight! Nowadays, they've expanded, added indoor seating AANNDD fries to their menu, along with breakfast items. The quality was always the same across the board. Sad to say on a recent visit to Vegas, decided to relive the college glory days with a stop at Tommy's in Barstow. Should've stuck with old faithful. Upon entering, we noticed there was next to no one dining and were kinda wondering if they were even open. We found one gentleman in the corner and a few employees in the back kitchen area. After looking over the menu, we decided on just a quick bite, chili cheese burger and a double chili cheese. When the burgers came out, I was in Heaven. I could smell that chili and it was oozing all over the burgers. First bite, just as I remembered from years ago. Halfway thru the burger is when the reminiscing came to a screeching halt. No more chili! It's like they wrapped the burger with just a side of the burger peeking thru the wrapper and spooned chili over the top. The entire second half of the CHILI cheese burger had no chili! When I had these in the past at the original location, there was so much chili throughout you'd end up licking it off your fingers after it oozed all over your had with each and every bite.... Until the very end. Well, at this point, if we stop in Barstow again, going to snack elsewhere. Keep on Yelp'n! read more

I have been a fan of Tommy's since the 80's (and I haven't had a heart attack yet!) Tommy's chili will make it or break it for you. Most people love (or at least like) it, but not everyone. My biggest tip is: get the chili ON THE SIDE. You can glop as much or as little as you want on the burger or dog without making a soaking mess of it. Toppings include onions, Tomatoes, mustard and pickles. I personally order the chili AND cheese on the side. It is great by itself with the fries (some of the best fries out there IMO). If I order a burger, I order cheese on the burger and on the side of chili. Hot dog: I just order it on the side with the chili. If you like chili in general, Tommy's is a "must try". A combo is about $15 (almost double what it cost 8-10 years ago), but it is a tasty treat! read more

Everything but one burger is covered in crappy chili that taste like Dollar General canned with extra black pepper. $10 for a single and small drink. Hamburger patty was the size of a McDonalds hamburger. read more

This is our go-to stop anytime we're driving to (or from) Las Vegas. While there's several other familiar franchise restaurants in Barstow, as the lead driver, their chili cheese fries has kept my energy going in the final stretch back to Los Angeles. While it's a typical greasy spoon, it's a go-to if your party likes chili. The prices are pretty fair. The seating area is pretty standard for most greasy spoons. It's allright, and still clean. I can't say much more about the ambiance other than that. Service was pretty good and simple; we had no issue. So, if you're looking for quick service and a something off the 1-15 and something different from common food franchises, this is not a bad choice! read more

Like most of my meal experiences, I was passing through for work. Seen this on the ol' Yelparoonie. So I figured I would road test it. I ordered the #4 cheese burger, fries and a drink. And I see a chili dog on the menu, so you know I have to try that. For all that it was roughly 20.00. Is what it is. The cheese burger was good. Lettuce, tomato, onion and pickle. Nothing special but good. I want to say it also had thousand island dressing on it. The French fries crisp and golden brown. You have to add the salt. Those were good as well. OK now the star of it all. Number three to be talked about. But Number one of everything. The chili was just that. No beans. It was chili. And it made sweet love to that hot dog. And it wasn't just a hot dog. This bad mamma jamma had a snap to it. Borderline pop. The cheese was melted under the chili. Had a sprinkle of onions. A few slices of delicious pickle and the cherry on top was a slice of tomato. The chili dog was definitely the star of this indulgences. So in the end, get the chili dog. Hands down the headliner of this establishment. That's all I got for now. read more

I would have given my first Tommy's burger ever, 5 stars if the patty would have been cooked longer. If I return here someday, I will ask for my burger to be well-done to make sure it is thoroughly cooked. Their sauce is a bit tangier than In & Out's and it was good. I did like how the burger's onions were chopped, instead of sliced. read more

Local LA chain known for their chili, this was my first time trying a Tomys. I ordered the chili cheese burger and chili cheese fries. The burger was nicely cooked and had lots of chili, but I didn't find anything special about the chili or the burger. The fries were definitely the best part of the combo but just because they were freshly made. Overall, the flavors didn't blow me away, but it isn't necessarily a bad spot, just not great. read more

Still the go to place for greasy, messy, and delicious hamburgers!! Was happy that was able to finally order at some place, even if I wasn't able to sit down inside. This little area is my "stop and stretch my legs" area when driving between Orange County and Vegas. To be able to order snack, use the rest room, and peace out is exactly what I need. Another perk is there isn't a Tommy's World Famous near me so this is also a treat. I'll warn though if you plan on eating while driving, there's going to be a toppings bomb on your shirt, especially if you have them add ketchup. No matter how you wrap that burger, it's going to get on your clothes. But the taste makes it so worth it! Just a quick note on their COVID-19 adjustments. They were all wearing masks and as you can see by the picture I uploaded, the public Pepsi machines are closed. They were more than happy to pour me a nice beverage though behind the counter. And finally - what would make this a 5 star review? Get coke and that 5t star is yours! read more
