Chili cheeseburger with side of chili cheese fries!
Darien C.

Tommy's has the BEST chili burgers! I've been craving their food for MONTHS so of course they were at the top of my list of places to eat at while visiting my family in Cali. I wish they would expand to other states so people can enjoy their delicious food. But I guess for now they will be a delicacy I can enjoy when I come back to my home state. Go to order is their chili cheeseburger with chili, cheese and onions with a side of chili cheese fries with onions (yes, I love onions!). I'm definitely going to miss enjoying their food since I don't currently live in Cali. But I highly recommend for anyone visiting or living here to try them when they can. Their chili is the best I've ever had!

We happened to be in the area and needed lunch. So we stopped in for Tommy's since it had been a while. We were disappointed, to say the least. First, we noticed how expensive it was. My cheeseburger meal was $15. We paid about $45 for 2 combos, chili fries, and a burger. I would be willing to pay the $45 if the food was worth it. But it wasn't. The cheeseburger was eh. The chili itself was more mushy than with whole beans. I was also sad to see Pepsi products instead of Coke. Despite the food, service was good. The lady at the counter was friendly. Store was clean too. And a side note, their restrooms don't have changing tables. I went to change my toddler and had to have her stand up to change her diaper. I didn't want her to have to lay on that ground.

Finally got to try Tommy's for the first time and I wish I had them sooner! I've known about them for a long time too, damn, where has the time gone?! I tried the chili burger that has tomato, onions and pickles with a good amount of chili-excellent. What a great idea to put chili in a burger. Really changes the dynamics and brings the burger to a different level. The regular fries we shared are thick cut, not oily or too salty and a good amount. Since we biked there, this was a good amount and did not feel overly full or heavy. In n Out is good, but from now on, the next time I'm craving a burger, I'm coming to Tommy's, hands down. They also have other interesting items too like the caliente burger or the chili tamal. Plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. Bike racks right outside. Highly recommend!

Breakfast Burrito

I tried the Chili Breakfast Burrito at Tommy's, and it did not disappoint! The chili adds the perfect kick of flavor without being too heavy, and the burrito itself is packed and satisfying. The eggs and potatoes were cooked just right, and everything blended perfectly together. It's definitely a heavy breakfast option that hits the spot and will keep you full for most of the day! The drive-thru service is quick and efficient, and the restaurant is always clean and well-kept.

We had a reservation for a birthday brunch on their patio, and it was truly beautiful. The photos…read moreonline don't do it justice at all. The space is fully covered, so you can enjoy being outside without the sun hitting you, perfect vibe. A few people in our group ordered sangrias and other drinks, and everything was great. But the real standout was the Peruvian ceviche such a hidden gem. Super fresh, flavorful, and honestly one of the best dishes we had. Our server was attentive and really helpful, and the food came out quickly, which we appreciated. I just wish I had taken pictures of everything because it looked as good as it tasted. Definitely coming back.

Unfortunately, there were a few disappointments during dinner. We ordered the crab cakes and were told they were unavailable. We then ordered lamb chops, which were also unavailable. Thankfully, the food we did receive was amazing and we were still enjoying our evening while waiting for birthday dessert. What completely changed the experience was when the manager, Destiny, approached our table and told us we needed to move to accommodate another party. We explained that we also had a reservation, were still eating, and were waiting on dessert. Instead of handling the situation professionally, her approach came off with an attitude and as though we were an inconvenience for not wanting to move in the middle of our meal. As a manager, professionalism and customer service matter, especially when guests are celebrating special occasions. Better reservation management could have prevented this situation entirely. Even other guests nearby seemed shocked by what was happening. Roger ended up apologizing on her behalf, even though he was not the issue. He truly did his best to save the experience, while the manager never came back to apologize herself. The food and our waiter were excellent, but the management experience was extremely disappointing and unprofessional.

Went to this cute little place today in Claremont because we were specifically looking for a…read morewoodfired pizza. They've got indoor and outdoor seating and they seemed a touch understaffed for being a beautiful day. It was also a Tuesday lunchtime so maybe they weren't expecting it to be as busy as it was. We were able to prove the menu before we got seated. And our super friendly server came out and we were able to order right away. They've got a lunch special. That is a small personal pizza with a salad and we each got that. Salads came out first and I had the arugula salad, which was absolutely phenomenal. 10 of 10 would eat this every single day. The arugula was peppery and it was well dressed in a lemon vinaigrette type sauce. I am a fan of just plain lemon on mine, but this was delicious. My husband got a union salad, which is their specialty I guess. It's got colored carrots and some beets and some shallots. I thought the dressing was bland and it certainly needed salt and pepper. We asked for both and didn't get either. Our pieces came out and they were nice and woodfired. I feel like they could've been done just a little bit longer maybe a minute or two. The sauce was a lovely fresh type crushed tomato sauce. The cheese was nice and gooey and did not feel or taste like a package of processed cheese. Pepperonis were greasy, but in a real meat kind of way. I had to dab mine, but my husband just went to town on his. The pickled peppers is a pickled jalapeño. Big chunks of them. They certainly didn't skimp on any of the toppings. They were a little sweet and a little hot. Some of the big chunks were a little too sweet for my liking but overall, it was a nice flavor mix Also from a size standpoint, I thought the salad and pizza were very adequate for lunch at around $20 price point I asked for salt and pepper again as well as a side of ranch. This time we did get the salt and pepper as well as cheese and crushed red pepper. But we didn't get the ranch until we were leaving. The server did apologize and said he thought someone else was bringing it out but I pretty much deducted a star because we asked for a couple different things that never came. Overall, the service was super friendly, the ambience was nice for an outdoor lunch thought. I thought the menu looked delicious and there were several things I would like to come back and try and I would go back again.

We decided to try brunch on a Saturday morning. Long story short,…read more I ordered the steak and eggs breakfast. At $38ish, I expected a great meal. It was so underwhelming. 2 eggs cooked differently, one over hard, one over easy, 5-6 potato pieces and the steak was thin, overcooked, and appeared to be a cheap cut of meat. A New York cut would have been great. Wife mentioned norms has better steak and eggs. Called and spoke with a manager Stephanie, not looking for anything, but to express disappointment in the meal for the high price. She offered to mail a gift card for us and invited us back. Took all of my information and never received it. Thanks anyway. Don't think we'll be back.
