    Monsters and Men obviously love Tommi's burgers.

    Burger time already! It is still junk food, but I feel less guilty than eating sweets. This is where I go when I need my daily joint...of burgers! This place is fantastic on the inside and just by entering you get the idea that you will be eating one tasty and juicy burger. As a burger expert, I must say the ones they make here rank in my top 10. They are big enough to fill me for a few hours and taste authentic. The location is not so good, but it is worth visiting if you are in the area.

    Tommi's is back! All hail, Tommi's is back! I was a little concerned that the gritty feel of what had to be one of the best burger joints in London would be lost when I heard they were moving onto Marylebone High Street - I am so glad to see they even moved their chicken-wire covered black boards and that big portrait of old Tommi with them. The queues are long, yes. It is hard to get a seat at lunch time,yes, but the burgers are immense and well worth the relative hassle. If you don't want to be involved in the rush quite so much, come a little later, after 1pm, and you should be fine. Something I haven't tried yet as they are new additions for this new venue, is the milkshakes. They look incredible though, so it won't be long until I dive in. Another thing that has changed is that it is no longer a BYOB, they actually sell beer on site, which is fantastic when you sneak out for a cheeky Friday afternoon burger and beer. Welcome back Tommi, I missed you.

    What a fantastic burger place! Thank god my friends told me not to be put of by a ling line. The burger joint is quite small, so the line was all the way on the street. I guess it's normal in lunch time. The interior is really charming! Spotlights like from Christmas tree, menu written on a paper bag, bob Marley playing and really nice looking guys behind the bar. We ordered a steak burger with cheese and fries. When the burger finally arrived it was absolutely delicious! The meat was tender, sauces nicely balanced and I could actually taste the lettuce and tomatoes. We sat by the window on bar chairs byt the door. It was. A nice spot with a view, only a bit cold as the door was open. On the other hand, I can't complain because at least we were not smelling like burgers later in the office.

    5 stars for a very good burger in England. We are from the US & My teenaged son almost cried tears of happiness as this was the closest burger to a "real" us burger he had experienced during our two week trip. Brioche bun, perfectly cooked - fantastic fries. It was all good -just a two minute walk north of the Oxford street madness. Fairly priced for central London.

    Oh my oh my oh my. I totally love this place and if you haven't been yet then why are you still reading this - leave for it now! After getting a top tip from my friend Alex to check out this joint, we ventured down on a wet and windy London lunch time, eager to tap into their carnivore delighting selection - and even as soon as we got through the door I knew we'd made the right choice! As we ventured in, the smell of searing patties filled the air and it was a good sign that it was so packed you could hardly get in the door. Deep beating Hiphop of Outkast's 'So Fresh and so Clean' was rocking the joint at lunchtime making us throw a few shapes while waiting in line for our order of Steak burgers! What came were some of the most succulent juicy burgers that I've ever put into my mouth - and this is saying something as my Dads nickname for me as a kid was 'the Burgermeister' The fries were crispy and just what you'd expect from this place - their condiments selection was also off the chart and greatly appreciated by myself and my European chums. I think Tommi's is the sort of place you could go if you wanted a lunch time meal, a quick evening dining experience or maybe something to take away - pretty well priced at around £7-9 a burger - not to be missed if you're in London (or even travelling from afar)

    It is not very often that I queue for food, especially at lunch time. But, having decided to come here, queue we did. It wasn't too bad a queue time and it gave you some time to review and think about what delight you might order. Burger (with cheese and bacon) and fries (with a free drink) came to around £11. This is typically more than I would usually spend on my lunch but given the reviews, was hopeful that it would be worth it. As you queue, if you want to eat in, there is the slight worry that you might not get a seat. Inside was full but, as we stood queuing you realise that there is a reasonable turn over of tables and the diners do not usually stick around chatting too much once finished. The speed in which they clear your basket possibly helps this as you don't want to be seen to be sitting at an empty table just chatting whilst diners queue for a a table. You order, grab a table and wait for your food. Your name is called and you flag to say that it is yours and then your basket is brought to you. I have to say, the basket of food was delicious. Biting through the soft bun into a juicy burger was delightful. The basket held a pile of chips. Lots of chips. This meal is one of those that you think 'never going to eat all of that' but, also the type of meal that you think 'that bite was lovely, I am going to chew slowly so I can savour the taste' whilst, at the same time thinking 'let's chew quickly so I can take another bite'! Before you know it, the burger is gone. The chips are just as nice, they are good chips and what a pile. Never going to eat all of that and at lunch time.......oh..... I ate them all!! Gone. I cleared that basket of food in record time. Just as well there is a little walk back to the office......

    Burger of the month

    After meaning to go there ever since I read it was a favourite of the beckhams, today was finally the day! Not really being a big meat eater, the options were limited to either a veggie burger or the burger of he month - chargrilled chicken with avocado. After a careful deliberation, the mention of avocado swayed me for the chicken. At almost 9 pound it was on par with prices at other decent burger chains - meat liquor, patty & bun and honest, so couldn't quibble. The burger was delicious, the chicken was chargrilled to perfection and the salad and avocado complete a really lovely burger. I didn't try the fries as I'm not a massive fan of thin shoestring fries. If you're in the area, definitely call in for a burger and I'm told they have a special offer for students on a Monday.. Another plus point.

    Steak Burger (+ Cheese): £8.90

    The London fast casual burger scene is one that is evolving for the better, so my expectations were high when I stumbled across the very positively rated Tommi's Burger Joint. While it was good, I wouldn't classify it as anything better than A-OK. Star 1: How were the service and atmosphere? Atmosphere is where Tommi's really shines. While you're smack dab in the middle of a pretty well off part of London, you'd honestly think you were in a trendy dive in the East Village. While I'll admit that the ~20 minutes that I waited for my Steak Burger was a bit much, but friendly service offset that. Star Granted. Star 2: How were the portions relative to the cost? For London proper, my acceptable range for a burger that doesn't come from a chain is somewhere below £10. At £8.90, my steak burger from Tommi's was within this range, and while this was by nearly every definition a 'small' burger, it just squeaks by in the value category, especially when the standard burger is priced more along the lines of £6. Have a look: http://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=OKX-V5j_qfuOebeHeWGrHg&select=ZeRXPAYcz9niH477WX6mqg Star Granted. Stars 3 and 4: How was the food? A good burger? Yes. The bun was fluffy and buttery in a day and age when burger buns have been neglected, and the cheese and lettuce were fair enough, although nothing special. Now, my burger was defined as a "steak burger", and while I'm not sure what that means, the patty here didn't taste any different from a regular burger. On top of that, there honestly wasn't a whole lot of flavor here, which was disappointing. I'd have loved some additional flavor in the patty, or some spice, but it seems as though Tommi's places a large emphasis on the topping that you can add yourself as opposed to the default flavor of the burger. I'm not a huge fan of that approach, but to each their own. Single Star Granted. Star 5: Would you eat here every day if you could? The fast casual burger scene in London is so competitive that I simply can't recommend Tommi's incrementally over some of the alternatives in the area. No Star Granted.

    Perfect burger. Nice crew. This and P&B are my favorite burger spots in London. For some reason in London the burger are kinda tiny everywhere, but Tommi is super delicious, if you're really hungry you might need 2 burgers.

    The fixin's bar.

    This was the final stop, #3, in our London hipster burger tour. Tommi's was definitely as solid as Patty & Bun and Honest, but not strong enough to take the lead definitively from P&B. They have a super simple menu which reduces decision anxiety, that was a plus. Well, at least until you get to the fixin's area, definitely some decision anxiety there. From their menu, you have the choice of a burger, veggie burger, or steak burger. That's it. You can get cheese, bacon, and béarnaise or cocktail sauce as optional toppings before you get your burger. Easy, right? Well, yes, until you get to the aforementioned (free) fixin's bar. There you will find pickles, jalapeños, caramelized onions, horseradish and dozens of bottled sauces from Sriracha to A-1 steak sauce. Lots of choices, looked like a Bloody Mary bar. I chose a few jalapeños for my burger. The burger was very good but it was no P&B invention; just a very well-rounded burger. My wife's veggie burger was made of encrusted black beans and she said it was the best burger of that variety she's had. Chips were standard, like Burger King fries to be honest. Overall, recommended. I think it's a toss-up between Honest and Tommi's for #2.

    Relish ..so many to choose from

    Not the worse burger I've had, not the best either. But too…read moregreasy and the fries portions are really small.

    Most overrated place ever... I kept seeing long queues outside this place for ages and I really…read morewanted to see what all the hype was about. There's 3 main burger options and then you add all the toppings you like to customise your burger. While my boyfriend asked for all of the toppings I asked for the plain bacon cheeseburger as I wanted something simple. I obviously tried both options and they were equally disappointing. My boyfriend's burger was juicier than mine for to the peppers and onions that made it taste more fresh, while mine was a mass of meat and plastic-y cheese that I can easily dub 'the artery clogger' because it felt like I'd need a double bypass after eating it. Not to mention that the bacon was bone dry and crunchy, borderline burnt to a crisp and breaking in crumbs when you bit into it. Honestly worst bacon I've ever tried. To be honest the variety of toppings was very underwhelming as the choices were something you expect from a basic burger (mayo, onions, tomatoes etc). With gourmet burgers in your average pub offering avocado, egg or pulled pork and even your local spoons burger coming with onion rings, Five Guys is really not bringing anything new to the table. The skin on chips were enough to vaguely justify the £4 and they were decent so I was happy with them. However, my highlight was getting free pints of water which on its own says a lot about what this place has to offer. This place is a glorified Mc Donald's with pretty much the same quality as far as flavour or texture are concerned and five times the price to fool you int thinking it's a real restaurant. I do not intend to go back there again as it was a complete waste of money to eat something basic and unhealthy.
