My mum wanted pancakes before I left back to the city, she wanted IHOP, but it was too far away for my time constraints. We came in and sat in a booth, I have never been here before, but my mum has. Service was quick and good, very nice waitress seemed to know the regulars names. My mum liked the pancakes, said they were bigger, fluffier, and tastier than IHOP. That should have been a no brainer. Thanks, to our waitress and Tommy's. read more

It was OK like any normal Denny's or IHOP. The ladies that work there are very nice, but the food can definitely be improved.

First time here. The food was delicious. Just how a small cafe should be. Big servings at a good price. Definitely going to be my new breakfast place. Staff welcoming and friendly. read more

Please do not eat here. I went here this past Saturday, 27 December 8:30a I ordered their Kabasa scrambled when I tell you I had food poisoning by Saturday 11 AM and ended up in the emergency room Sunday morning at nine because the food poisoning was so bad I couldn't control it. This place is dirty. Clearly we have some bacteria and germs growing somewhere their kitchen can't be cleaned or my food was cross contaminated or it could've been the Kabasa sausage that actually had a recall on it and they're serving it in their dish. Either way it goes. I received a severe case of food poisoning and still haven't fully recovered from this. Be careful the places that you choose to eat at. read more

old skool cafe. Repeat customer for sure . Our go to in Stockton for american style breakfast . Large and in charge!

Terrible service. Nothing refilled, no napkins, had to grab the condiments ourselves, and food came out late. Supposedly the sausages were still frozen. Normally the ladies are on top of things but the boy wasn't. After everything, we asked for a to go box and they charged .25??? We left our leftover food and the to go box. They can keep that .25 cents. Never coming back again. read more

Came for brunch with family and food was better than expected. Service was great! Menu had lots of options. Overall not too bad.

The Asian ladies taking the orders were hella nice to us and the food was also very comforting and filling, good portion sizes and low waitime. They're basically goated read more

I completely judged this book by its cover. Ok, this restaurant looks very outdated. It's located in an area where it seemed a bit sketchy but to be honest, the best food always comes from these type of areas. I'm not from Stockton so I could be judging the area a little too much. We gave it a go and walked in. Food was smelling delicious! The host had this fun energy vibe to her and it made us feel good. We were seated with menus and service right away. We ordered the Mexican omelette and Chicken Fried steak. It looked delicious and it tasted delicious! I really enjoyed my breakfast. Overall, even tho the outside seemed outdated, the food inside was delicious however, I did use the restroom and it was very dirty but overall, this review is fully based on my breakfast experience. I do recommend this place as you will walk out with a full stomach. Great size portioned plates for a great price. read more

Best breakfast in town. The menu is extensive and everything that comes out of that kitchen is delicious. They provide friendly and quick service. They make the best omelettes. The have a seafood omelette that's delicious. My family loves the large fluffy pancakes. I love to get over easy eggs and hash browns (I always request them extra crunchy) with bacon and sausage and sourdough toast. Their portions are large and shareable. The French toast is also a favorite. It's a little cafe that stays busy because locals know about this unassuming gem. On occasion, I've sat at the counter-service is just as good up there as it is at a table. If you haven't been here it's a must try. read more

Great food, pretty affordable. You get a lot for what you get. Nice staff. Classic feeling inside.

Haven't been here in so long and it was yummy as always. Hubby ordered the meat lovers breakfast burrito. Filled with ham, bacon, sausage, egg and cheese. Huge and delicious. It comes with a side and he picked the fruit I ordered the western cheeseburger. Had a big cheeseburger and onion rings on it. Ordered with fries on the side. Staff is friendly and accommodating... We will be back again soon. read more

This place is literally up the street from my house and never even paid it attention. My daughter wanted breakfast and found this place. The food is amazing and the wait team are really sweet. This is one place that I will come back to read more

First time here I went because the reviews were ok and we were tired of searching first in they told us to have a seat in the middle seat we sat down for about 15mins never offered water or anything to drink so I went to the counter to ask for water the lady finally came over we gave her our drink order and food order came with the food order didn't provide napkins or syrup the lady never came back to the table so I had to go get creamer and syrup from other tables and then I went to the front because one of our orders were missing so I ordered pancakes at the counter then once again the waiter came back we wanted to order food to go I was taking to long I guess so she told me to just order sausage with out giving me the chance to choose I just settled for what ever cause at this point we are ready to go also I was never offered a high chair and my sister was clearly carrying her baby I had to walk across the room to get a high chair anyways out to go food came and we noticed a charge on the bottom for a Box Yes we're charged for a to go box the lady took it off once we asked about the charge and tried to act as if she was doing us a favor get home with our to go orders we are missing A whole order and the kids said the burgers we brought them were horrible so never again will I be back keep the 12 dollar meal as a tip read more

First time here. Wow so many menu options! It's packed in this place so be prepared to be snug. One bathroom stalls, on for men's and one for women's. The coffee is a must and they refill. It's strong so just an fyi, but that's the kind I like. The staff is super friendly and the food comes in good portions. I plan to come back for lunch! read more

Tommy's Cafe - Kielbasa Scramble - Cafes Near Me - Stockton, California

This place is garbage service is terrible Hella dirty and smells like sewer. They let a lady take up 6 tables for 15 people that weren't even there. So we had no table and had to wait. We left and went to black bear where it doesn't smell like sewer read more

This was a last second selection on a place to grab a late breakfast. It was nearly full inside but we got a small table. Being busy, meant the service was a little sub-par (no silverware, missing condiments, etc.). Wait staff were doing their best to stay up though and we appreciated the effort. Once it started to slow, service was excellent. I decided to try their Italian skillet and selected hash browns and sourdough toast as my sides. The toast was a little small but was pretty good as I'm sure it had real butter on it. My skillet tasted pretty good too. The hash browns had a nice taste and so did the ingredients in my skillet. My friend tried the corn beef omelette and said it was one of the best he'd ever had. My order was pretty big but his was even bigger. I didn't think he could finish it all. But somehow he did...me too. He had coffee and I had a Coke. We took our time eating and by the time we were done, the place was nearly empty of customers. Our waitress said it's always packed for breakfast and wide open at lunch. Despite their sign, they are no longer open for dinner. If you want a tasty breakfast, I personally rank this place as one of my top two options in Stockton. That being said, prices have definitely come up (our bill was over $40 without tip). At least your food portion is big and makes up for some high prices. Enjoy! read more

How do I put this correctly....the main customers I noticed were older white people....and it shows in the flavoring of the food lol Like don't get me wrong, the quality and cook on the food was great but absolutely no flavor or spice. Add some spices and keep great quality food and that will be what's up haha read more

Was really hoping this would be a yummy hole in the wall like The Omelette House but unfortunately that was not the case. The ingredients tasted cheap and flavorless and on top of that the waitresses never come check on you then get mad when you don't tip their shitty services. Also they charge for To go boxes give me a break don't waste your time here. read more

The retro divey exterior implies this will be a hidden treasure of well-made diner food, but... lunch there was uneven and disappointing. Omelet and scrambled eggs were both made from liquid eggs and were greasy. Waffle had a great texture, but so much vanilla that it was a distinct aftertaste. Bacon was perfect! Iced tea was surprisingly good. Service makes the call that it's two stars rather than three. Our server took our orders (with much explaining to her of what the menu said), then came back five minutes later with menus to start over as if she'd never seen us before. My waffle was missing its syrup. Dad had to explain to servers who were merrily bidding him "goodbye! have a nice day!" that he'd like to pay the check before leaving. Had the food been great, it would have been comic -- but with mediocre food, it was so irritating. If it's your neighborhood restaurant, you can probably figure out how to make this a favorite hangout -- it was certainly busy enough to suggest lots of people have! -- but if you're a visitor from out of Stockton, there are plenty of better restaurants on Pacific. read more

This restaurant has always been good, since the establishment at Wilson way before here. Nice and great service. Food is alot for what you pay for, so you'd likely not be famished after lol. read more

i came here twice and it was just amazing! the customer service was amazing and they are very attentive and all really nice :) the food came out fast despite it being busy the first time i had went. i ordered the french toast with the hashbrowns, sausage and orange juice! when my boyfriend and i went he got the pancakes and they were sooo good! they were fluffy and he could barely finish them. the prices are reasonable too and better than denny's. we used to go to denny's but you cannot beat the quality here at tommy's nor the prices read more

We really enjoyed our breakfast,ordered #56..breaded pork chops,home fries and over easy eggs with sourdough toast(not pictured) #43..Ribeye well done,French Fries and scrambled eggs with pancake (not pictured) it wasn't ready yet. As soon as we received our food I asked for a side of ranch to dip my French Fries,but didn't receive it til I was almost done with my food SMH... Our waitress was friendly when we got there,but as soon as I asked for a refill of water and sprite she breathed heavily as if she was IRRITATED!!! Now that's what I don't like! Didn't give us any napkins as I asked,I had to get it myself from the front counter! As she was bringing my ranch,she was carrying 3 packs of coffee lids to go and one of the packages spilled all over the floor..so I knew she was even more irritated...wish I could've gotten her name cause I would've definitely put her on BLAST! If I was to eat here again I wouldn't want her as my server!! read more

Here's another good little greasy spoon for you guys to go to. When I say greasy spoon that's a term of endearment. What I'm saying is this is a good diner family restaurant for you and the kids . What I like about the places is incredibly clean . The food came out quick and it was made to order . I decided to test these people out by ordering something that I know is not easy to prepare. I ask for a 'Wet' Scrambled egg with my French Toast combo. Please understand to make a wet scrambled egg it's not easy to do and it's also difficult if your turn is not right with the French toast both of which came out Is nicely hot and fresh. Also the service was good. I had Marianne's as my server. She made sure that my coffee was hot, and she asked me if I wanted anything else before I left. And the best part of Marianne was she never once convinced me that the food was good ...that was already assumed. So yes this is a place you must go to if you're looking for a good affordable breakfast. This place is not a fancy restaurant if you're looking for fancy go somewhere else. This is a place where everyday people go for everyday food. Enjoy! Post the term I'd like to show you pictures of the place and the food that I ate. Unfortunately the food was so good I ate it Before I could take pictures that's how good it was. read more

Service was horrible! I didn't get the omelette I ordered, bacon was burnt, I said potatoes she gave me hash browns, she brought me cottage cheese instead of sour cream, we had to ask if she was going to take our drink order, then she didn't bring the drinks until after she brought the meals, we had to remind the waitress. Breakfast was high priced. Horrible experience for being there for the first time. Will not return. read more

Service was great and food was made in a timely manner. The food was good quality and portions were not small but not too big either.

For a cheap dining experience, this is the place! I mean that in a good way. My party of 3 dropped in around 12:30 pm and the restaurant had just a few tables full. We were happy with the portion sizes of the food we got for lunch. 3 burgers all cooked the way we requested along with a helpful amount of fries. Our waitress was attentive and nice. It seems they have a variety on the menu so we will be back to try the breakfast. read more

My husband and I have been wanting to try this cafe for quite some time now. We finally went here for breakfast....yay! Actually not really .....We were not really impressed. The restaurant needs a little reboot. It looks like a truck stop eatery. Although, the waitress that served us was really friendly and entertaining. I actually like the waitresses that were working there. They have a very friendly staff so that helps a lot. Our breakfast we ordered was ok. I ordered a vegetarian omelet with hashbrowns that didn't really have any taste to it. Very bland tasting breakfast, actually. My husband ordered his staple meal when we go out to breakfast which is chicken fried steak. He thought it was ok. Could have used a little more seasoning, but hey it wasn't the worst. Overall rating is a 3 star for effort and good staff. I'm not here to bash or give a 1 star unless of course the service is bad which in this case it was good service. read more

Tommy's Cafe - Veggitarian omelette and strawberry waffles. - Cafes Near Me - Stockton, California

We just happened upon this place. I was pleasantly surprised. It was very clean and welcoming. We had Jasmin as our server...she was very attentive and polite. I had the All Meat Omelette... delicious! The ham was grilled and added a fantastic flavor. The hash browns were nice and crispy as requested. I opted for the biscuit and gravy as my bread choice. It was not as exciting as the rest of my meal. The biscuit seemed to be pre-made and the gravy was basic pepper gravy. Overall, it was great! I would come back and would recommend it to friends. read more

We went to place for the 1st time and boy did it hold up to our liking. We order omelets and they were okay just the filling wasn't cut up to our liking but the taste the flavor was hitting. Service was great we had a made little lady who seem us seating across from each other and ask if she could clean a bigger table that's service. Kept our cups filled. But these waffle and French toast was very filling and as you can see very delicious and hit the spot. read more
