Don't really understand what the hype is about. I am a quality over quantity type of person. Their food is very bland. We ordered 2 bacon breakfast burritos, 1 cheeseburger, & the huevos rancheros. The burritos were 7/10. Lucky Boys on walnut & the other location on Arroyo have better flavor and quantity for the price. The cheeseburger was gross, frozen flavorless patty I give a 3/10. But those Huevos rancheros... 1/10. I've had huevos rancheros plenty of times... They should not have a soft tortilla under the eggs. It should be fried tortilla. How is this a famous dish for you guys?? I'm amazed that they offer hashbrowns and soft tortillas for this dish. Overall dissatisfied with the food. What a waste of $40. Ohhh and to top it off those little plastic (MEDIUM) cups suck. Will not be returning here. read more

Tom's - Pasadena - No seasoning on hash browns, bland beans. - Burgers Near Me - Pasadena, California

Love coming here on my lunch break, easy to get to and a quick drive from the office. They are always super fast and friendly here. Plenty of sitting options but mainly booths, which are for larger groups. PROS: they serve breakfast all day, which is so awesome cause sometimes I have that craving. I usually always get the BLTA and they do not hold back on the avocado, which is always fresh.. it tastes so good. It doesn't come out brown. I also like that they know how to cook fries. They aren't all mushy they are consistent all throughout. They will have staff come around and clean up your trash, and offer your refills.. I feel they go above and beyond for a fast food restaurant. CONS: none -- haven't had anything to complain about so far and I have gone at least a dozen times. read more

The staff here is amazing! My GF forgot to ask for no gravy on her chicken fried steak and they INSISTED on redoing it, saying "You getting what you want is important!" The manager asked if it was right and even the chef came out and asked her if it was okay! Alexa is a doll and so bright, cheery, and helpful. The food was done just right and was very yummy. Their shakes are A+. read more

My friend and I wanted to try this place since it just opened by our work so we gave it a shot. We walked in and were handed menus. When you have your order down you walk up to the cashier and order. Once you order and pay you are given a number. You take your number and take a seat while you wait for your food. The food is taken to your table and people walk around asking if you need anything or refill your drink. I ordered a chicken salad, fried zucchini and a ice tea. Chicken salad - the salad was a nice size portion. It came with bell peppers, onions, tomato, croutons, cheese, grilled chicken and I added pickle slices with ranch dressing on the side. The chicken was good and had a nice flavor. The salad was very filling. They also give you a side of pita bread for your salad. Fried zucchini also called zucchini fries - very nice and lightly breaded. The only thing was they were a little hard. They could have cooked them a little longer. They came with a side of ranch dressing. The zucchini was a nice size and as I mentioned before the batter they used was great. Just the right amount to coat the zucchini. We will be hitting this place for lunch again but I think next time I'm going to try one of the burger and fries combo. read more

Breakfast was disappointing because my eggs were served cold and no one ever came to ask how my food tasted or was everything ok. PS I ordered the chicken and waffles with eggs. I feel they cooked eggs first and they sat there until chicken was cooked. It should have been other way around read more

So this fast food/dinner has some good food, and some monstrous portions! I really like the burgers and other sandwiches I've tried. The dinners are a great value but I'd stick to things they don't take a lot of talent to prepare. I had the steak and shrimp dinner and it's just too much food. The shrimp was good, but the steak is on the lower end of quality. That could've been made up for if it had better seasoning. I ordered it medium rare and it came out closer to just under rare. So I asked them to cook it just a little more and it came back well done and very poorly seasoned. That's what you get when a hamburger cook who was a busy boy last week starts cooking steak. I had the same thing happen with the pork chops I'm sure to have better luck with the fried fish and chicken. Don't get me wrong, a lot of the food is good and you should eat here, but be selective. I'm giving it 4 stars for the portions and the service and value. You won't go away hungry! read more

If you like to eat good food, then don't go here. If you like to eat edible food, then this will be a good place for you. My office ordered and I thought why not. People seem to say they enjoy it. Unfortunately, I didn't enjoy it. I ordered the Famous pastrami and fries and ate about half and threw the rest in the trash. Pastrami had descent taste, but the bread was hard as a rock. It was softer after having the pastrami in it but now it's just soggy. So it was a rock hard and soggy famous pastrami sandwich. Fries had a weird taste and some of them seemed to not be cooked thoroughly. There's nothing like freshly cut or good quality frozen fries. These weren't either. Overall, this is not a place I would go back to for anything. read more

This is my first time at this place and I have to say I really enjoyed it. It feels like a beach diner vibe in here. The food came out promptly. The workers here are very friendly and attentive. A+ for cleanliness and great service. They came to check on our table a handful of times to make sure everything was okay. We also really enjoyed the music! We will definitely be coming back here again. read more

I have never been to a Tom's restaurant before. I noticed this one as I was driving by and decided to stop in later in the evening. Tom's is located just south of the 210 and just east of N Lake Avenue. At first, I thought it was a diner; however, it can best be described as a quick service restaurant. In fact, it does have a drive through; however, plenty of indoor seating. If you eat inside, you order at the counter and then they will bring the food to your table. If you are familiar with other restaurants in the area, it is kind of like Lucky Boy's (the one on Walnut) or Top's (also on Walnut). Anyway, the service was extremely friendly. The prices were very reasonable. We had the Patty Melt with fries and a drink, along with a pastrami burger with the combo. The total was only $17.00. It was a great value. Everything we had was very tasty, very yummy and can best be described as high quality diner food. It is just what we wanted and what we were expecting. The "runners" that were on the floor that night, kept coming around checking on us, getting us soda refills, any condiments we wanted, etc. We were overall very pleased and cannot wait to return again! read more

I have mixed feelings here! I want to love it... But First off the service is great! I'm sure they're overdoing the service since it's a grand opening but of course I hope the great service continues. I got the pastrami based off another yelper saying it's better than the hat. Unfortunately for me, it can't touch The Hat. Overall it was very dry and the pastrami flavor wasn't anything I was expecting. Very bland. Need to juice it more! The fries were on the cold/hard side. My mom got the cheeseburger which she thinks has way to much bread. The buns are huge and the party was very thin. We think it should be the other way around. Maybe I will try something else in the future but for now, I'll stick to the hat and tops for this type of food. Update: I tried the breakfast today. The place was pretty empty for 930 in the morning (vs tops) I hope they will do ok here. I phone ordered a chorizo add bacon breakfast burrito. It was very good! Only downside is the bacon was chewy, I like my bacon crispy which I should have specified so my bad. But the chorizo is perfect for me! It isn't so greasy that it eats through the tortilla with orange slime like some places. But then it isn't dry, still juicy. It was perfect. So now my average is 4 stars for this place. Maybe soon I'll attempt lunch again. For now, I'm fat and happy. read more

Been anxiously waiting to try Toms since I saw it open a few weeks ago (it looks like Mondo Burger from the movie "Good Burger") and I can comfortably say this place proved the saying "expectations lead to disappointments" to be false. I built my own omelette and my friend had the chicken and waffle. The omelette (3 eggs, jalapeños, bell peppers, spinach, onions, tomatoes and steam) was absolutely delicious and I had to make an effort to finish it, the hash browns which accompanied the omelette were addicting. My friend couldn't put his fork down and had the audacity to even claim that the chicken and waffles were better than Roscoes; I did not try it but can vouch in saying they looked great. Aside from the great food, the customer service was excellent and the entire staff was friendly, joking around with us throughout our breakfast. Can't wait to back. read more

Okay this place popped up. I had to stop by and try it. I ordered a toms burrito and a peanut butter milkshake. The milkshake was barely half full and extremely milky. Felt like more whipped cream and milk than ice cream. Not a good start. I'm still waiting on the burrito and it's been more than 15 minutes since I've ordered. We'll see where this review goes. The burrito Is good maybe even beats lucky boy in taste but with better ingredients. **Edit** I told the waitress about the first milkshake. She did have another milkshake made and upon my first sip it is actually a real milkshake this time and I wasn't left with a bunch of whipped cream and no shake. Add two stars. Very could have been 5 stars if service time and order correctness was right the first time. read more

Fine food at a fair price. As good as In-n-Out, but without the line. Reasonably sized menu to suit most cravings, and good grief what a great value! Currently they have a burger special that you can't beat with a stick..3 burgers, 3 fries, and 3 drinks for $9.99. Feeds my family of 4 for $11.69 if I get the kids' burger with cheese. Bam! read more

I went to Tom's around 11:30 on a Friday and ordered Tom's breakfast burrito, which has bacon, ham, and sausage, as well as onions, peppers, potatoes, eggs, and cheese. I ordered at the counter and the food was out quick once I sat down. The coffee was lukewarm when I got it, which I think was an unfortunate consequence of arriving close to noon. The burrito was hot but watery, to the point where the tortilla was soggy and falling apart due to the puddle of water that accumulated on the plate beneath the burrito. While I like the burrito, it was surprisingly average-tasting for the large amount of ingredients included. The service, as others have said, was absolutely fantastic. I felt very well taken care of, my coffee was continuously filled, and I even got a fresh cup to-go. Overall, I loved the service but the burrito was just okay. read more

Everything is always perfect!! Orlando and the staff are always so welcoming, makes sure the order is read back to the customer. I have NEVER had a bad experience here and it is always above and beyond. Great place, great location, best place in Pasadena in my opinion. Always thank you guys for a great service and great food read more

Saw they finally had the grand opening this weekend. The vibe is actually cool. You get restaurant style service rather than just another fast food call cattle joint. So you're greeted with servers as well as going up to the counter. The food selection is great and they serve BREAKFAST ALL DAY!!!! (At least that's what I was told). Overall, everything was nice. Kinda wish the owners or managers mingled with the customers instead of sitting in a booth in the corner. Other than that, looking forward to this place being a staple in Pasadena. I like it. I will be back. read more

Food is descent but the drive-thru employee is always rude and to me it's not worth it

This place is totally underrated. Food is always prepared fresh and the quality of customer service is out of this world.

This is just a review of their Tom's Breakfast Burrito, so I know it is not a comprehensive review of this local eatery. However, I have to say that this is an excellent breakfast burrito which I have enjoyed repeatedly for the past couple of weeks whenever I order one from the drive-through window. I know some other places in the Pasadena area tend to get more attention for their breakfast burrito options, but I like the ones that I get at Tom's. They are fresh, tasty, and not overloaded with hash brown potatoes like some others I have tried. One of these days, mw wife snd I will get around to trying other items on the menu, but for now Tom's is our go-to place whenever we are in the mood for a hearty breakfast burrito. read more

Had the Huevos rancheros. Nice n spicy. Beans are good. The rice could've used a little more salt but it was still good. The portions are big too. They do give you the option of potatoes or rice and you get a toast option as well. read more

So I started going to this business just on a whim it was local and I went through the drive-through I was going to get your ordinary you know burger and fries or something like that and then I saw that they had biscuits and gravy and I'm a huge fan of biscuits and gravy!! So I ordered it and oh my God it was amazing and this was just in a to go box ! so I started going to this place about twice a month I also tried their BLT which was delicious ! so I have probably been there about seven times but always through the drive-through and today I decided to go inside because I had about an hour to kill and I wanted coffee and biscuits and gravy well let me tell you I'm so glad that I did go inside. They have hot fresh coffee right at the counter. I love that because I was really needing coffee! The service was exceptionally fast compared to the drive through & the Decour was really nice it was all decorated like October with pumpkins and fall leaves ....the seats were very comfortable and roomy and the service wow what can I say ? I mean what kind of fast food restaurant sends people to come check on you every five minutes or less??? It feels like a family owned restaurant to be honest it's like a family type of experience... they come and ask you how you're doing or if you need anything quite frequently like in rotation. it's a very well organized streamline machine with great food excellent service fair prices and a good business model! Five stars based on the type of business this is a fast food restaurant with excellent food and service ! read more

It'll interesting to taste and rate, after I degest this huge breakfast. I enjoyed it will return soon! read more

Stay away from the sweet potato fries. BURNED. The fried zucchini is great though. The chicken gyro doesn't have much flavor and very dry.

The service was good but the breakfast burrito fell short. Didn't seem real fresh and the bottom third was packed with hashbrowns only. I wouldn't get another one. I was on my way to Lucky's boy and thought I would give this a try, mistake if you're looking for a good breakfast burrito. read more

We finally came to toms ! Atmosphere is great, I thought it was more of take a seat and they come take your order.... But it was nothing like that. There was like 5 "waiters" all they did was stand there and said "hi welcome to toms" every time someone walked in. They hand you a menu and when ever your ready you go up to the register ... Kinda sucks We ate a ribeye steak sandwich with grilled onion (they charged me 70 cents extra for the onion) I only got a few onions . I don't think they should charge if I'm not gonna get enough onion! Chili cheese fries are good (thick fries) . I never get strawberry but I tried my bfs and it was really good ! The - 2 stars is for the charge on onion and the way we have to order (I know you just open, I hope in the future the way we order changes) read more
