Original Tommy’s Hamburgers

We were so exited to try this place out. Total fail. Burgers no flavor what so ever! Eww and the chili disgusting. Won’t be returning.

Went for the first time and didn’t know if we would like the chili so they offered us a very generous sample. We decided not to add the chili to the cheeseburgers but they were wonderful without it. We asked for «crispy» fries and they were hot and fried to perfection. Staff was very friendly and accommodating. Will go back again… and again.

I am originally from cali. And the whole time I lived there till I was 28 never tried them. I finally hv. Lets put it this way. I havent missed a thing. They should bring the HAT out here. Now ur talking.

Simply put, too greasy for my tastes.
My wife and I were the ONLY customers in line.
I asked for my hamburger to be served with no tomatoes, and no pickles.
Yup, served with pickles and tomatoes.
All though the meal left me full, I have had much better hamburgers, and much better service.

Can’t ever go wrong with a greasy tommys chili cheeseburger.
Opted out of getting chili on my burger and got the side chili boat instead.
This location rocks!

What can I say except I became a convert to Tommy’s back in my SC days when we would make the midnight run to the original on Beverly and Rampart in LA.
Although the frequency of my visits has diminished quit a bit, the loyalty remains. Tommy’s is so unique that it stands heads and shoulders above the rest. It’s all in the chili. But… Tommy’s is like the Dallas Cowboys… love or hate them but no middle ground. I happen to love their chili.
This time around I went with the Number 1 combo-​double chili-​cheese burger, chili fries with cheese and raw onions, side of chilis and a Coke.
Came in hankering for a for chili bomb delight and left satisfied.

So the food they sling and bank on the fact you’ll get hooked when you have your first bite is one heart attack from a triple by pass… and??? They make no apology that their food is about 500 calories… PER BITE! And I dig that!
Meat, chili, and carbs… this is the place if you’re into that kind of indulgence. Giddy up!
4 stars for the food, minus 1 star for the health factor.

Nahhhh.
So, I was so excited to come here and try their burgers, buuuuuuuut, total let down.
Maybe it was my fault, I didn’t want to get one with chili on it. Oh well.
The burgers are small and expensive and the fries were the only thing good. The drive thru is a death trap!
I guess I expected more for how much we spent, but we will def not go back. The drive thru cashier was a sweet Hispanic woman, and thats why I gave this places 2 stars!

i ordered fries with extra cheese and my friend ordered her’s, we waited over 40min or more for fries, a hotdog and hamburger. they threw out my receipt and forgot us. then they apologized and still took long, so long i asked for my money back but they said no your order is almost done. i got my fries and barely any chili, i told them i asked for extra and the cooks called me a bitch and were talking about me like i was not there!!!
so 1. they threw out my ticket
2. made me wait over 40min skipped us
3, didnt get my order right
4. called me a bitch and said i was rude
i wasnt rude i was annoyed and hungry and simply said if they can put the extra cheese liike i asked!
if you go to this tommy’s get ready to be disrespected by the cooks!!!

I went here once when it first opened, and it was a little off the mark. Now a days its Tommys, like you expect, but cleaner than most, as its still pretty new. Don’t let them forget your fork on those chili fries to go.

Great to have a burger in Vegas that reminds me of eating in the Valley! As good as the original and just as messy.

SO disappointed! Got a burger combo today and while the fries & soda were good and generously portioned the burger was messy, lacked flavor and didn’t seem to be made of a quality meat. I won’t return.

Helps to know Spanish here as in English the order usually goes wrong. Burgers are good, but shakes and fries are mediocre. Good chile goes well w/​dogs, burgers and fries. Not up to par with L.A. Tommy’s but good for the munchies and when in a hurry.

Haven’t had Tommy’s in forever! So glad I found one here in VegasGreat super indulgent burger joint. I’ll be back

If you’re looking for comfort food, then this is the place to go. I wanted something other than jack in the box so I saw Tommys burger and decided to try it out. I ordered the chili cheese burger and chili cheese fries. Presentation was like in n out. Burger and fries come in an open face box. Chili cheese fries were good. It wasn’t outstanding — just standard chili and American cheese. The burger I was a little scared to eat because of the chili. But as soon as I took a bite into it– I could taste the freshness of the beef patty and tomato. It was great!
Overall:
Burger ⁴⁄₅
Chili Cheese Fries ⁴⁄₅
Would I come back? Yes– if I’m looking for some good comfort food then this is my new place to go.

Not quite the world famous hamburger that I was expecting. I’m a bit surprised that they bill themselves as «World Famous» because I had never heard of this restaurant until last year (from Unilocal) — – but only decided to give it a try today. I was surprised to learn that they’ve been around since 1946. Their famous chilli on the hamburger tasted more like watered-​down refried beans (where’s the meat?). This really was not a good combination (it masked the taste of the hamburger patty). The employees seem friendly. At least I gave this a try.

If you are on a low sodium diet, do not dare step foot in this place!
Several better burger joints nearby, (Red Robin/​Farmer Boys/​In N Out/​Smashburger/​Five Guys/​more) unless of course you are craving average tasting chili covered slop; then this is the place to be! French fries were very average at best and the milkshakes were nothing to brag about.
Easy to spot location at Craig/​215, but challenging to get to. The inside was clean and there were plenty of tables everywhere. This evening we sat in the corner at a table large enough for four people.
At least the kids I brought to dinner here this evening enjoyed it, and for that reason alone I gave 2 stars instead of only 1 :)

In the words of Jimmy Fallon, «They are so Ewww!» I have given them 2 tries and I’m still not a fan. Their burgers are not suitable for human consumption, unless you enjoy slop on a bun.

Tommys is one of my guilty pleasures. My ex boyfriend and his family raved about it cause they grew up in california where the place originated. So anytime someone would take a trip to cali they would always bring back Tommys so I got to taste it a couple years ago. It was good but you can imagine it wasnt that fresh after being in the car for 4 hours! So when they opened up a Tommys in town I was super happy. The only downfall was it was all the way on the other side of town by St. Rose Hospital. I live in the northwest and am rarely on that side of town so I only had it once. They also have another location on boulder hwy but I never made it to that one. Luckily they ended up opening this location which is just off craig and the 95 and super close to my house! I am super happy that Tommys is so close to me now and I can indulge whenever.
I just love their chili. It does not have any beans in it and its spiced perfectly. I like it so much sometimes I go there just for the chili which they sell in to-​go cups. All of their burgers come with chili, onions and mustard but if you dont like chili on the burger you can get it on the side or omit it completely and just get their burger «cali style» with thousand island sauce, lettuce and tomatoes. They also have breakfast and tamales with chili of course! I almost always get the chili cheese fries and a burger cali style. Also as I said before you can order the chili on the side and get fries and make your own chili fries if you want to be thrifty! Definately check this place out it is worth it!

I used to go to to the Original location since it’s not far from where my brother lived but haven’t had it in years.
The chili is this gloopy greasy mess that makes me think, «why am I eating this?» but yet I enjoy eating it with fries. I have a thing for thick cut fries, this nice inbetween steak fries and regular cut fries and they serve it up here.
I got a burger but since I had chili cheese fries already, I got just a classic california one. It was «meh». The balance was all off… what I mean is the patty was thin, then theres thick tomato slices, lots of lettuce, etc. I like when things are a bit more proportionate. The BF got a Caliente burger which was better.
When we ordered they messed it up and rang us 3 burgers, two classics and the clientele. When we told them, they refunded our money for the extra burger, but told us to keep it. I took it home and the pugs and cat split the cheese and meat patty.
I can see on the rare occasion I want that radioactive chili on fries coming here, but it’s not something I really think I’ll be visiting often. There are other burgers out there I like better.
