Even with Covid you can still get Tommy's. You can have it delivered or pick it up. There is no indoor seating. This location does not have indoor seating anyway, they have outdoor stands. Whether you can stand there and eat I don't know. Tommy's...has been around since the late 1940s at this location. It is just so great. The burgers with chili and the chili fries are the best in town. You can't go wrong here. This is a must stop for any out of town visitor who loves chili burgers. Have fun.More

This place has been around for years and we decided to give it a try on our next LA trip. While it may have been a fluke , it took forever to place an order and get our food. It’s open 24-7 365 from our...understanding. We went at 1am. The place was slammed and there were 2 lines to place an order. The guy taking the orders in the line we were in was argumentative with other customers. It seemed like a stressful cooking environment. However ,we decided to stick around since we were starving. We ordered the caliente burger , cheese burger and chili cheese fries. The food was really good ! Would definitely recommend trying it but may be avoid their busy times!More

I first came here in high school, 1967, I believe. My friend Lynn would have access to a car, when his parent’s would go away for a weekend and we would sneak away. In those days, Beverly and Rampart was a long way from downtown...Anaheim. Always a Chile Cheese Burger, and a small drink. The drinks are HUGE! I can really only eat one burger and it is filling. We had a friend of the same age whose older brother worked as a salesman for a company who made Chile. In Anaheim it might have been Bridgeford, another classmate. His family owned that company. The older brother tried to get Tommy’s to purchase his products, but was unsuccessful. It seems that his did not slide off the spoon as well as the one they had and needed it easily to slide off the spoon. The Chile is what this burger is all about. I always ask for extra! A big slice of ripe red tomato and pickles and onions, mustard and 2 slices of cheese. So I have been back some times of course, but other, closer locations have opened and I frequent them. This afternoon in July was like I remembered it from long ago. The stand directly on the corner, the 10 space parking lot, fountain drinks off towards the building with the restrooms. Standing room only to eat. Memory Lane....More

Came here with the wife for a quick lunch as heard it was an LA institution. Reminds me of a place in Berlin called Burgermeister which is a similar sit outside/eat at a bench vibe. However it appears Tommy’s has been around for about 70yrs...so they clearly have been doing this since the dawn of time! Queued up for about 15 mins before getting food but totally worth it. Messy but tasty, and great value for money. I’m honestly tempted to go back and get another for dinner haha.More

I had always heard about Tommy's but I had never gone. It is most definitely the hype. Not only is the quality and quantity well worth the price, but because they know they are in high demand, their service and speed in delivering the order...was literally almost instant. These guys are ready to go at any moment and quite frankly there needs to be more Tommy's in LA. The ladies at the counter were also very nice! Will definitely come back.More
