    Waffle with strawberries, a side of hashbrowns, and bacon.
    Tiffiny H.

    Back again! It's been a while, but I was still pleased with the quick service. My mom really enjoyed her Cobb salad and my friend enjoyed her omelet. I of course enjoyed the lovely strawberry waffle!

    I eat here more than I should. So many good choices. Today was a cheddar cheese and jalapeño omelet, hash browns and grilled rye toast. So filling - had to take half home. The service is always top notch. Even though you order at the counter, they always come by your table to make sure everything is OK and if you need anything.

    Always a great place for brunch! Good food and good service! Grab a table and know your number!

    2 Pancakes

    Great breakfast spot. The food was great. They are very generous with their portions so be ready to stuff your face :) I'm mad I really thought I took a pic of my food :( I only took a pic of my pancakes. I ate an omelette which was delicious. Pancakes were also very good! The service was awesome. Friendly staff & very attentive. The place is very clean they do have private parking and street parking is also available.

    French toast bacon  and eggs  really good   I love to come here, fast service and great customer service!!!!

    Lately I have noticed a very big change in terms of service, they receive you very kindly and very attentive as to whether you are missing something or want more coffee, etc etc!!! Well done TOM's Team

    WOW! What a Deal!. Everything was fantastic, prepared and presented very well. I'd give it all a 10+ Excellent service by excellent people and the Ambiance is very welcoming.

    Double burger
    Peter D.

    Friendly face greeted me, looking for a cheeseburger to see if it is good enough to talk or write about, quick answer not really but the name Tom's Family stuck with me, prices are decent I'd say family affordable! Liked the Pasadena based murals do if you have friends that live nearby snd you don't want to break the bank yeah sure . One quibble , didn't like the cheese they use.

    Club Sandwich

    This place always hits the spot -- I love club sandwiches and theirs is pretty tasty. Bacon could've been a bit more crispy but delicious nonetheless

    Waited 15 min the line didn't move. There was 4 cars piled up. This is why no one hardly comes here. The food is ok, just go to tops.

    What is the point of a drive thru if you cannot hear a single word I am saying? I screamed strawberry pancake no less than three times. I asked for hash browns and you said orange juice? You try to pass over a bag that is four containers tall and impossible to pass thru to a car window.... And of course I got NO strawberry pancakes. Never again.

    beans are delicious, the rice is amazing and the Chilaquiles were nice and crispy with good flavor.

    My New Go-To Spot for Amazing Mexican Food! I'm very particular about Mexican food, especially because I lived in San Diego where the Mexican food scene is unbeatable. But let me tell you--**Tom's Famous in Pasadena on Walnut and Mar Vista** has completely won me over! Their food is SO good, and they have everything I could ask for. First off, the fact that they have a **drive-through** is a game-changer! You get the convenience of fast food with the quality of a diner. Speaking of which, the food is prepared quickly but is packed with authentic flavor. Their **homemade salsas** are delicious, and the customer service is excellent--friendly, attentive, and fast. I'm honestly surprised more people don't know about this place. The food is top-notch, the portions are huge, and the prices are great. I ordered the **Chilaquiles Mexican Combo for just $12**, and it was a massive, high-quality meal. You really get your money's worth here. If you're looking for a new spot to enjoy amazing Mexican food, you've got to check them out. This is definitely my new favorite place, and I can't wait to come back for more!

    See all

    Yep. I have gotten omelets for dinner several times. And they are awesome!

    Tom's has their own parking lot, with plenty of free parking. There is also street parking, in case the parking lot gets full.

It's always great to see pizza spots offering slices to go or slices to enjoy inside. The location on Fair Oaks in the busy streets of Old Town Pasadena. Parking garages are all nearby or street parking around the building. The location has a number of tables and TVs to enjoy the games. The staff here were super friendly and made us feel very welcome. There were an abundance of ready made slices to select. Per the staff, they have vegan cheese options for whole pizzas, but none for ready made slices. Just as an FYI. They also offer a number of sandwiches as well. The number of items is vast and of great variety. Now for the pizza. The selection was a mix NY slices and square slices. I was looking for some to go. So I decided on the squares cause I love those slices! I went with Pepperoni Grandma and a Pepperoni Honey DeNiro. The staff will heat it up for you on the oven and even cut slices in half to enjoy them. I loved the flavors and the crisp edges. It had a great crunch in each bite and taste was solid. My favorite of the too was the Pepperoni Honey DeNiro. The hot honey on this slice made this option stand out to me. The mix of sweet and savory paired with heat is my kind of combo of flavor. :) I would come back again if I'm craving pizza and would think of the trying a sandwich too in the future because their menu looked good. Thanks, Brooklyn Square! ( ^_^)b

There are so many Middle Eastern cafés and restaurants in town, but this one always stood out to me. It is extremely fresh and flavorful they make the food after you order and Service is warm and friendly. The quality has never wavered and trust me, I have eaten here many times. I enjoy their pressed wraps, but especially love the fries. I am picky about fries, but these are always made to order and always just perfect. It has a Middle Eastern seasoning on it which you can opt to leave off. I love them with a dipping sauce of spicy tahini, which they will provide if you ask. You can of course get it non-spicy as well. Their menu can satisfy many different diets including vegetarian/vegan, keto/low carb, pescatarian and meat eaters It's just extremely reliable and high-quality and I plan on continuing to be a regular customer.

To be fair, I did come in after the lunch rush, so maybe it was just a long day. What really bummed me out was my order. The French Connection used to be my favorite, but this time it had way less filling and just wasn't satisfying. I also ordered a cup of chicken, which was the same small serving as before, but now it's almost $8; not really worth it for what you get. I love supporting small businesses and have enjoyed Father Nature in the past, but honestly, I'm not sure I'll be back anytime soon.
