    Drive thru
    Kiki T.

    Today is their 80th anniversary!! They selling their World-Famous Chili Cheeseburgers for 80 cents today from 12p to 8p...the standing line was decent and went smoothly. We only stood in line for 1.5 hours. Drive thru on the other hand was horrifying, because there was a line formed from Topanga Canyon Blvd and another lined formed at the alley way. Here is the kicker, cars coming from the opposite side of Topanga Canyon Blvd was cutting into the line. Such rude people. Inside is casual.

    Today is the 80 anniversary of the opening of the first Tommy's . Great chili burgers . Fast service and old time ambiance .

    Chili Cheese Fries

    Original Tommy's has been a lifelong favorite of mine while growing up in The Valley. This location has a drive-thru and also a handful of booths inside. Tommy's has a small, straightforward menu with a few hamburger, hot dog, and fry options where you can add chili, cheese, and/or bacon. They also have chili a la carte, shakes, soft serve, and a small breakfast menu served all day that includes a sandwich, burrito, and hash browns. Most recently I ordered my usual: double cheeseburger with chili cheese fries. The burgers are grilled to order and the patties are flavorful. Their fries are a must order: crispy, hot, and perfectly salted, with chili and cheese. These days I can't do chili on both the burger and the fries, but I do recommend trying the chili cheese burger! It's classic, a bit messy, and totally worth it. Tommy's is definitely more of a hole in the wall, but this location is clean, employees are friendly, and the food is delicious while being slightly greasy. I wouldn't have it any other way!

    Food- EXACTLY what i was craving. I wanted chili cheese fries and i'm so glad i came here to get them. they always hit the spot. just make sure to take a Tums beforehand haha Service- Thank you Daniel for being patient and answering our questions on the drive thru box! Very thorough to make sure our order was correct. And respectful at the window!! Ambiance- I went drive thru at night so I didn't get a chance to go inside.

    The older guy taking the orders by drive thru was funny and quick. He had a positive and attentive attitude, which is greatly appreciated. I went today because it's a good deal: regular double chili cheese burger combo for $8 bucks. Large parking lot and outside was clean.

    Employees are always nice and the food never disappoints... Chili tamale hands down the best item on the menu for me personally Can't go to Tommy's and not get chili cheese fries Get in my belly!!

    Double cheeseburger with extra chili!

    Hard to pass up on their social media specials. I couldn't decide on which one to get, so I got both!

    If you're following the this deal is for you until 8/13/2023!! Don't forget.. Last day is Sunday!

    Okay, I am biased but I really like the burgers! Not really a 5-star restaurant but I give 5-stars to the dedication and the legacy! I just tried the California Classic for the first time and it was very good. If you like In-n-Out then this is similar but it's a double beef patty and for a limited time it is only $2.99 for one with cheese. This burger is mouthwatering and meaty. I don't eat meat that often but this is definitely splurging. The lettuce and tomato were fresh and juicy. Then with the slather of spread and a pickle it had that tangy sweet flavor to meld with the soft bread. I put my cheese on the side because I like to eat my burgers without melted cheese (most of the time). The drive thru is pretty fast and the people are nice enough. They also have a root beer float for $2.99 (regular price). My husband got the double chili cheese and sopped up the chili paper (yes, that is a thing).

    Been talking about grabbing some Tommy's again since it's been years but never made the trip out since we were always busy and craving other things. Finally my coworker wanted to get some, crazy coincidence, so we had him pick some up for the entire office. It was a bit early and I wasn't starving so I only got an order of chili cheese fries but man did I forget how good it was. I ate it as soon as they brought it back even if I wasn't exactly hungry yet but I managed to finish the whole thing. It was very heavy but super delicious. I wish the fries were a bit crispier but I guess it's not meant for this type of thing. The chili and cheese were amazing and packed so much flavor. The only problem was that it was so heavy, I was tired at work the rest of the day and then had an awful stomach ache later that evening. Might've just been too early to eat for my tummy to handle and it's never done that before. Definitely want to get their burgers and maybe even the chili cheese dog some time soon! IG: @ammysalamii

    Where's the chili?

    Normally tommys is good but today what happened ? We ordered "chili on everything" including fries, he, Mario, even asked us if we wanted chili on our fries and we said yes. We opened up the food on our way home and no chili cheese fries. Chili on the burger? Barely! No chili to scoop up with the fries. Stingy af. What was that?? 6:43pm on 4th of July. Cleanest tommy's experience ever. What are napkins for?

    Single Chili Burger

    Got the Tommy 3:49 special with my coworkers . 3 double cheeseburgers and 2 tamales. Except the cheeseburgers were single patties, I called and spoke with the place and they tell me to bring the food back and they will remake it. I appreciate the offer but I'm on a 30 minute lunch break and work 4 miles away so I'm stuck with the food. Make sure you check your food before leaving. Always had a great experience so this is a first been coming here for a few years now. Gotta better train the staff to check the food

Juicy patties, fresh ingredients, and consistent results keep me coming back for more. Overall, this location offers juicy burgers, fresh ingredients, and fast, exceptional service. In my opinion, this is one of the best locations in the area. Ratings: Food - 5/5 Service - 5/5

I will say I have never dined in. But things appear to be well kept from what I can see from the parking lot. it's also usually empty so it seems like most people are taking food to go like myself. Food has always been fresh tasting. It seems like it's always made to order (which would explain while the drive thru can take awhile) which I appreciate. Honestly, you know what you're getting when you order from McDonald's. You're eating it for convenience or nostalgia. This locations no different than other locations. You gotta appreciate the consistency across the brand.

This may be one of the best meals I've had in all of the valley. I tried the Tapsilog bowl which had a perfectly cooked egg, savory Garlic rice and a great helping of marinated Angus beef. I'd love to know what they use for the Beef Marinade because it was out of this world. A flavor explosion the likes of which I have never tasted. One bite and I started devouring the bowl and had to force myself to slow down and chew. I also tried their Pork bun which was delicious. A perfectly made bun with delicious cooked Pork belly and an excellent pairing of sauces and toppings. I've had pork buns from other places and the bun has always ended up being too sweet and ruined the flavors for me, this was NOT the case. This Pork bun was in a word, Delectable. The staff was very friendly and poliete. My one issue is the price is on the higher side but with as good as everything tasted I'm willing to splurge to give my mouth a taste of Nirvana.

We decided on Oi Asian which had great reviews, so why not. First off, let me say that there is plenty of parking, however, the parks are extremely narrow for some reason. It was a struggle to get in and out of the car due to the width of the parks smh. Anyway, once we got inside, there wasn't anyway at the register and after standing there for a while, I noticed the kiosk so unplaced my order there. There were only two cooks in the back. We placed our order and sat down. The place was clean but everything seemed like it was do it yourself. The boys were thirsty and there wasn't an option for water on the kiosk, so I called one of the cooks from the back to pay for a water and he rang me up. It was pretty rough in there. At one point I had to get up and grab my own fork by reaching over the counter. Once our food was ready, one of the cooks brought our food and I wasn't really feeling my meal, which was the dynamite crawfish bowl. I didn't like the sauce it came with. I just picked at the crawfish and left the rest. As for the boys meal, the fried chicken adobo bowl was REALLY good! I ended up eating theirs because my oldest son didn't like it, which was great for me lol. My youngest and I tore that bowl up. Anyway, the verdict is, I may search around for other options but I know that if I can't find anything else I can always grab a chicken adobo bowl but the service was pretty nonexistent. That chicken adobo bowl saved it. OOO 3 out of 5
