Growing up in SoCal around the corner from a Tommy’s location pretty much sealed my fate. I love this place! For me, it’s comfort food that reaches the deepest part of my soul. I usually stop at this location when I’m passing through or staying in Vegas. The food has always been good here, as good as any location in SoCal. I usually come in the morning so that I can get my go to Tommy’s breakfast sandwich and chili cheese fries with tomato pickle and onion on top. The breakfast sandwich is one of the wonders of the industrial age. Just the combination of Tommy’s chili, cheese, sausage, and a fried egg is sublime, but that’s not all. They pair that combo with pickle, onion, tomato, and mayo, and then wrap it all in an English muffin-it’s pure umami Nirvana! The chili cheeseburgers and chili cheese dogs here are the best I’ve ever had. I usually don’t have space for them though. I reserve filling in the nooks and crannies of what’s left in my stomach for Tommy’s chili cheese fries. If you like chili cheese fries you need to try Tommy’s version. Again, they are the best! (in my unbiased opinion, of course) Personally, I think they’re even better than the best if you add tomato, pickle and onion on top. And by the way, the tomatoes at Tommy’s are amazing! You’ve never had tomatoes this good at a burger joint. For the uninitiated, it’s best if you wash down Tommy’s with Mountain Dew, or if you’re like me, Diet Mountain Dew. If you haven’t been to a Tommy’s before you need to make the pilgrimage and put your faith to the test. I am confident that once you do, you’ll kneel at the Altar of Koulax and pledge your undying devotion just like I have.

My guide on how I use the 5 star system:

⭐️⭐️⭐️ = Solid, but I’d try something else before this again
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ = Really liked it! You should try this
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ = Loved it! Must try
I’ll make adjustments to my ratings after subsequent visits. If you see a .3 or .7 it means:
.3 = Wasn’t as good the 2nd or last time I tried it
.7 = This was better the 2nd or last time I tried it.
I ordered the double chili cheese burger without a bun.
They were a bit confused at first as to how to serve it. But quickly resolved.
Food was good. Chili was good.
Dining area was clean.
Service was acceptably quick.
There were very few people in the restaurant. I was here on a Sunday evening.
The only negative:
No caffeine free diet soda options.
Went for the #1 combo and couldn't even finish it all. I don't have a place like this where I live in Arizona so when I get a chance to get Tommy's in Nevada or California I take advantage. Maybe in the future you will open up a place or two in Arizona.
Best way to get a heart attack, and not from the food. From the excitement and amazing memories from child hood. Best Chili cheese fries and chili burgers the staff was amazing. They really like there jobs.
This place is fast and has great service. A great amount of food for your cash 💵 💵 💵try this place out bet you will be back!
The service is fast and courteous. The dining area is clean (and remarkably similar to another chain that I've been in and out of over the years). The prices are low. The burgers are okay, but not great. And the chili is also so-so, although I imagine it could be something one could become nostalgic for. The fries are good. Not too skinny or too thick, hot, crisp, and flavorful. I regretted that I'd ordered them with chili. I did appreciate that when I asked for extra pickles, they gave me EXTRA pickles.

A true Southern California treat. If you grew up in the valley the you ate at Tommy’s. With the chili can look gross piled up over fries but I promise you it’s good eating.
I always love coming back to the west coast cause nothing beats an original Tommy's it's always fresh made to order and nothing changes there great food and service. Tommy's baby
OMG! I couldnt believe that it was Original Tommy's in Las Vegas! I've been eating Tommy Burgers for over 35 years, but hadnt had one in at least 3 or 4 years and even though I wasnt in Van Nuys or Burbank or across the street from the Budweiser plant in Sepulveda, CA, it brought back memories and tasted like home! The Tommy Burger with Egg, was amazing as always, as was the chili fries! Great food, reasonable prices and memories galore!
Great service! Great food! Always friendly dudes. I love this place. Thank them for their hard work.
