    Great drive thru

    My burger was great! Fresh ingredients, great flavor and wonderful service. Surprises more people to come here.

    Chili cheeseburger and French Fries
    Andrew T.

    After having my plans for the day ruined, I found myself at Tommy's. My friend and I got a chili cheese burger and fries. The burger was greasy and a bit messy but pretty solid with a well portioned amount of chili. The chili was not overpowering and the burger was nice and warm. Shockingly, it came out in less than five minutes after ordering which was perfect because I was starving. The fries were decent. Personally, I liked the bigger fries because they were thicker. Overall, they had the perfect amount of salt. It's a very clean and organized interior that reminds me of In-N-Out. The cashier was nice, no problems with them.

    I stopped by this Tommy's location finally after 4 years of working in Simi Valley. It also been over 10 years since I last ate a Tommy's burger. This location is very close to my work office and I was in the plaza at the bank. So today was the day for me to finally try their burger again. When I came, there was no one else here so I think I was their first customer of the day. I got the double chessburger and asked for no chilis or onion. There was just 1 worker there today and he prepared my order. The inside colors remind me of In N Out because it looks so similar and this location still have the soda fountain machine. My burger didn't take long to make and I ate it at the office. I thought the burger was decent, it's not my favorite burger but it was a good lunch. I personally like their fries but it been a while since I last had it and the price is high.

    Cheeseburger and Chili Cheese Fries

    I hope you know why you're coming here. This is not a burger with avocado, sprouts and a side of veggies. Yes, chili and fries! Probably so bad for you, but so good! Yes, it's a rare treat.

    Today's 2-for-1 Chili Cheeseburger, with extra Chili, and Fries!
    Dennis V.

    So... I just can't resist Tommy's Promos! As a USC student in the early eighties, I spent many of late evenings at The Original Tommy's on Beverly and Rampart. Their chili is to die for and is still the same after all these years. Today they had the two chili-cheeseburgers for the price of one. As always, I asked for extra chili to dip my fries in, and their excellent staff loaded them up. Fries and a ton of whole yellow peppers (are you listening In-N-Out) were more than I could handle. I appreciate how clean and they keep the place; especially with all this chili slopping around!

Just inside the door it was obvious to get a place to sit you better be seated "now!" Everyone was eating, tables were covered with food, it looked great. Our order was taken, the person taking the order was quick, to the point and was not asking how my mother was doing. We were there to eat-not socialize. The receipt was ripped off and passed over with a flick. No instruction given like 'they'll call your number' or 'you pick up over there.' In the next 5 minutes if you paid attention for about 20 seconds you learned how things worked. It was busy, plates looked great and the aroma inside the place was something else. Our food came quick, we sat and began to peel open our pastrami dip sandwiches. Oh, they smelled great. They looked great. The meat was delicious, melt-in-your mouth tender. They did notice us! They like us! I could not imagine how much better a pastrami sandwich could have been. The bread was very good too-you know the Earl of Sandwich was onto to something way back when....the combination of meat and bread was great. The Hat has numerous other locations in the LA area...if you want a beyond generous sandwich you must stop and order the pastrami.

Just a few minutes away, tucked into the corner of a shopping area next to a Target, it is easy to get to, easy to order, and available for takeout or dine-in. The menu offered several tasty-sounding vegetarian sandwiches, so I really had to spend some time deciding before I even got there. I settled on the Californian (house-marinated artichoke hearts, avocado, sun-dried tomatoes, mozzarella cheese, green leaf lettuce, herb aioli) and some kettle chips as an add-on. It does come with a small green side salad (Urbane House Side Salad), with a vinaigrette dressing. The sandwich was very tasty, with plenty of vegetables, and clearly had artichokes aplenty. I ordered with extra aioli on the side, but in the end did not need it, as the sandwich was very moist as made. (I did use it as a dip for the chips - no waste here!) Quick service, good value, tasty food, clean location - for a small chain sandwich shop, very good!

    Dear Hubby and I were running errands at the S.V. Town Center Mall nearby on Saturday evening. He…read morewas hungry; I was less so. He suggested Del Taco as it's very close, and has a varied menu. We stopped in and went inside to sit down, instead of doing drive-thru. There weren't many guests inside at the time we went, but the drive-thru was keeping the staff busy. I could knock off another star because they didn't have any ice. What?! I asked for a cup of ice because I care for any of the drinks in their dispensing machine. The young man at the counter was apologetic, but didn't have any control of the situation. I used to love their cheeseburgers. Alas, no cheese for me anymore. Most all of their menu items do feature cheese as one of the ingredients, especially the Mexican dishes. I could order without, as I do in other places. I just wasn't feeling the desire to compromise on my order, so I went with the chicken strips and fries. Honestly, their crinkle cut fries are some of the best French fries in the whole fast food game, in my humble opinion. Well, the fries were as excellent as ever - perfectly cooked, and seasoned delicately with just enough salt to bring out the potato flavor. The chicken strips, not so much. The pieces were very flat, almost like they'd rolled the chicken through a pressing machine. They weren't a highlight of the meal. DH ordered one of the combo boxes, and he received a lot of food for not much money. I think there was a burrito, taco, and churro, plus a drink. He was happy with everything in the box. We sat in the dining room, surrounded by clean tables and interesting music. It was a lot of songs that I knew and could sing to, but you're not supposed to sing while you're eating. Ha ha! I don't know if they still have the chocolate chip cookies available as a desert option, but I could always be up for enjoying their fries. Sparingly, of course.

The staff was really kind and they have a lot of menu items with deal boxes. They also offer taco nights on Tuesday and Thursday from 3 to 11 PM. See picture for pricing. :)

    It's not my preferred activity to pan a local independent business. The last time Dear Hubby and I…read morestopped in was not as good as the time before, though. The food was just so-so, and maybe I just chose wrong? The name "California Bowl" to me doesn't suggest a particular type of Asian cuisine, so I was confused about there not being dumplings. The only kind they really have are the shape of potstickers, but they are only fully fried. I ended ordering the Shrimp Udon, and it was just okay. Challenging to eat without getting broth everywhere, actually. DH and I did share an order of the fried dumplings and they were too well cooked for my preference. DH wasn't in the mood for sushi, but I think that would have been a better choice here that the noodles. I'd personally like more vegetables as part of the offerings. The restaurant was clean.

Although the dining area was pleasant, it was not as well lit as I would've liked it to be. It was quite dark inside for a fast-food restaurant. My order took a little longer than I expected because there was a rush of customers that came in around dinner time, at the same time I did. Upon receiving my order, the cashier apologized for the wait. It wasn't too long of a wait considering how many people there were inside. When I got home, I was pleased to see everything that I had ordered in my to-go bag. Everything I ordered was good, however the tacos were not what I expected. Although the monster tacos and the mummy-wrapped tacos were delicious, they were certainly not filled as much as I thought they would be from the advertisement I received. I believe the staff at this Jack-in-the-Box can do a little better by being more generous when filling their tacos for their customers.
