So it was good & the atmosphere was retro. Love the music for sure ~! My issue is the cost & omigoodness $40 for two people for lunch is absurd. Also, going forward I'll be going to Bill Gray's b/c they still use the nice DiPaolo's buns. For the cost all we got were some boring old regular hamburger buns. Ummmm. Nope. read more

The workers were nice and polite and they held a conversation with me. The food was hot and delicious, I will always go there, and I truly recommend this place.... read more

Doesn't disappoint at all! Had the cheeseburger plate with Mac salad and French fries. Had to wait for a bit, but it hit the spot. Soaked up my wine from earlier lol!! Eat up! read more

The Wahlburger was pretty good, albeit sloppy. Fries were a bit starchy. Honestly, I would rather just go to Wendy's or McDonalds for better fries and a less sloppy burger. Gotta support local though. read more

The sister company to Bill Gray's, they offer essentially the same fare, only Tom Wahl's has their signature Root Beer. Generally better burgers then the major national chains, for fries and onion rings. They also have fish fries and Zweigles Hots. Hard rolls, not just mini buns. A nicer place to sit and eat Pre-Covid. read more

Sadly, this location is nothing compared to the one on Monroe Avenue. The only reason I'm giving it two-stars is for the location and drive-thru convenience but that's it. And if I were to be honest, what's convince and a drive-thru really worth if the food and service aren't up to par? I ordered a cheeseburger on a hard roll with ketchup and a little Mayo, along with a small onion ring and small fry- yes, I know a lot of food for one person but I just couldn't decide between the fries and onion rings. The total came to $17.46 which I thought was a little steep but for decent food I don't mind- unfortunately the food did not justify the cost. The bottom of the roll was soaking wet and I hate to say it wasn't grease but water- drenched and falling apart...so gross. The meat was very dry and didn't taste fresh- maybe they make them the night before and just heat them up? Fries were ok, and onion rings were nothing special. Drive-they staff was not friendly at all and seemed inconvenienced by me even using the drive-thru...not sure why I don't think I ordered something extraordinary or a huge order, maybe they were just having a bad day. Went at 11:45am on Friday, wasn't busy at all...maybe that should have given me a clue on the quality of food and friendliness of staff. Wouldn't recommend. read more

Went to my favorite Tom Wahls because it's between my house and my daughters plus my local one doesn't have a drive thru. Since everything is fresh made it takes a few minutes which a sign indicates but it's worth the wait. I got my favorite Hollywood Burger and a chocolate shake. I love their nice thick shakes. The burger is also good but a bit messy to eat which is why I prefer getting it to go. The staff is always friendly too. They have a nice dining area when we can go back in again! read more

Don't know where to begin. I ordered a small chocolate sundae for my child. The hot fudge didn't even go all the way around the ice cream, and that was of course after he made it wrong in the first place, with vanilla, not chocolate. Then I received my Hollywood burgers, two of them. I opened the bun there were barely any condiments on them. See picture! They only have two choices for cheese, and the cheddar was so thin you could see the burger through it! Cheese doesn't even cover the burger either. Very little lettuce. Pathetic. Fries were a generous amount though to be fair, and the root beer float was good. I will not come back to this location again for sure. read more

Tom Wahl's Fairport - Hollywood burger poorly made! - Burgers Near Me - Fairport, New York

Haven't been to Tom Wahls in a long time but six of my family members and I decided to grab dinner on a Friday night. Three of us had the fish fry and the others had cheeseburgers. The fish was okay, but with the amount of Tatar sauce I use - most fish is :) I wasn't a fan of the cole slaw, it had a bitter taste to it but if you're a fan of that type of recipe, you'll be happy because you get a big portion. Their fries are super yummy and my home made root beer was amazing! That's one of my favorite things at Tom Wahls. Unfortunately I got a moldy piece of bread that I actually bit into and ate - eek! I let the staff know and they offered me a new roll that I turned down for obvious reasons. I won't hold it against them as that could happen to any restaurant I guess but it did ruin my appetite after that. read more

Always a good burger! Meat to bun ratio is great. Its a thinner patty which I personally like. My favorite is the blue cheese burger. Something about blue cheese crumbles on a burger just seems right. Personally not a fan of crinkle cut fries but they keep it simple here. Onion rings are excellent though. They even have milkshakes and ice cream which are also pretty good. If you are looking for a greasy but delicious meal this is the place for you. Service is always fast and great and they even have a drive thru which is convenient. If you live in Rochester most people get the Tom Wahls craving its a tradition. read more

I was in the Fairport area and needed to get a quick bite for lunch and saw Tom Wahl's so I stopped in for some cheeseburgers. I've been to their other locations including the original in Avon and in Brighton. This place felt like a typical fast food joint nothing special... All of these experiences have been fine but the burgers themselves tend to be overcooked since they are so thin. I believe that Don's in Sea Breeze is a superior burger - juicier and tastier. I would certainly stop here before going to the big chains but I would definitely look for other options. read more

I was extremely disappointed in the hamburgers. They were thinner than paper. The ham on the Wahlburger was thinner than the hamburger, if that is even possible!!!! They charged $1.50 extra for gluten free buns! Tom Wahls burgers used to fantastic. Very poor value! I will not be returning ever. Should have gone to Wendy's! read more

If I could rate a zero I would. I ordered 2 burgers, 2 fries, a root beer and some hot sauce on the side. I got home and there was only 1 French fry and no hot sauce. Really, this has happened to me before, the manager wants my address, I provide it, they don't do anything about it. I am just not going back ever again to this one. Another disappointment read more

I had such a good experience here I think the blonde girl who took my order was so sweet I think her name was ava I am not sure though. I cant wait to visit again!! Thank you Tom Wahls! read more

This is your standard Tom wahls restaurant. Very nice and clean inside and out. Once outside patio for the summer!! The staff was friendly and courteous. read more

okay so y'all chicken strips are pretty dank. overall, the food was good. but seriously now. you put an entire battered fish onto two hamburger buns and call it a fish sandwich. my meme of a brother was not complaining tho. my milkshake was chocolate milk but that's k. my mom took too long to get it because she's very vegan. your "small" ice cream should be titled the leaning tower of whal's. read more

Tom Wahl's Fairport - this is called "small" - Burgers Near Me - Fairport, New York

Husband stopped by here last week and had a fish fry. He said that the fish had very little breading, was fishy tasting and over cooked. Have gotten this for years and never been disappointed. So sad that they have gone downhill ! read more

Just what you would expect big burgers and hot French fries . Had the Whal burger. It was excellent. Nice place, clean with friendly service read more

This is the first time I have been in Tom Wahl's in five years. So I asked the cashier how to order. This is key to this whole post. Do you subtract items on you burger (-mustard) or do you add (+pickles). She took the order correctly but the person who made the items must have been lost in space because the two burgers we received were no where close to our order. The worst part was the burger with everything had a dollop each of mustard and ketchup. No enough to we the bun. There is **no chance I will go there again knowing that the location in Perinton is less sloppy and more caring about their customers. **I returned to Tom Wahl's the next day to get my money back and the manager insisted we give it another try. So I got my husband from the car and we tried again. I am taking back everything thing I said about their burgers being dry and missing toppings. They got it right this time and both my husband and I were very happy the burgers were so tasty. Thank you Tom Wahl's for listening. read more

Excellent! I seriously love Tom Wahls. Every restaurant is consistent. It's always hot and delicious. It's a fun place to eat at. It's a home staple. read more

I usually enjoy my vists to tom whals. The customer service is usually really good! However, the cheese fries I ordered was aweful! It had a piece of american cheese placed on top. It wasnt even melted! read more

Ok for fast food. A local institution better than the big chains but nothing special in my view.

Great soft serve vanilla ice cream cone, largest I've ever gotten for $0.99

My wife and I went in this evening (12 Jan 2016) and ordered a couple burgers. It was explained that "everything" included ketchup, mustard, hot sauce (hot meat sauce) along with the standard lettuce, tomato etc. I was excited about the hot sauce and I like everything else including extra pickles so I ordered "everything". In my naivete I neglected to check the darn bag before leaving and when we got home to eat I discovered that "everything" means a plain burger with a dash of ketchup and mustard and a little container of pickles on the side...not a happy camper. read more

If you want a delicious, greasy cheeseburger and a root beer, come here. Crinkle fries are tasty. It's a no frills burger joint, but it's a good one. Big patties are a plus. read more

Had dinner here last night and treated myself to a cheeseburger, fried mushrooms with blue cheese dip and their famous homemade root beer!! The food was fresh and piping hot! Absolutely hit the spot! The young man behind the counter was so helpful and very friendly, as I had a couple questions about the menu, which he answered very efficiently. It's so nice to see a high school kid working hard and taking pride in his job and appearance. That seems to be a rare find nowadays. His name is Jerry, and he deserves a kudos for sure. The rest of the employees were smiling and working together as well. Seems like this place has terrific management! Keep up the great work TW!! read more

Burgers were overly greasy and had absolutely no taste, except for grease. Horribly greasy. Chocolate milk was sour and spoiled, and when the manager was approached with the issue, all she did was throw the milk out without an apology or rectifying the situation. We won't be returning. read more

Delicious take-out burger. Quick and friendly service. 5 stars earned for not using plastic. My burger was on a paper plate, then covered in foil, which was placed in a small brown bag. read more

I can't even give this a full star worst experience ever. Had a question while in the drive thru and the guy was very short and rude seemed like he didn't wanna even be at work nor want to help the customer. Lost my business won't be coming back read more

This location is sub par. I ordered a cheeseburger and fries. The burger was bloody in the middle I brought it to their attention and they cooked another one. It was nearly burnt to a crisp. Also the fries were cold and soggy. I have had better burgers and fries at other Tom Wahls locations. read more

Good food. I ordered the bleu burger and the clam chowder. The burger was great as was the New England clam chowder I ate. I recommend this place the everyone. Just a little pricey but I've seen a lot worse. I like the new look on the front of the store too read more

This was a first and last experience for the two of us! One indigestible red hot and one unpleasant dry greasy Hamburg later....and just hand me a Roland. To top this off we ordered onion rings - way over breaded and talk about grease-- In conclusion if you are in a rush hit McD's read more

WORLDS. CRUSTIEST CHEESEBURGER. My bf & I just left the fairport TW location about 20 min ago, I couldn't even wait to get home to write this review bc my bf is behind the wheel, speeding home so he can dry heave. That about sums up our experience at TW this afternoon. First of, the young woman who took our order looked beyond annoyed that we even walked in (3 other ppl there) . Then we got our crusty food.... 5 lbs OF RAW ONION PILED ONTO THE GARBAGE PLATE like they were pissed we ordered onions. The burgers looked like they were picked up off the side of the road & thrown onto our plates. Besides our food tasting disgusting & looking like there was no health regulations in place... THE BATHROOMS WERE DISGUSTING. DISGUSTING. My bf grew up in report & has been going there since it opened & "I felt like I was eating in an animal shelter." (And we all know how sad those are.) read more

This is the worst Tom Wahls I have been to. Even when I go during off hours every single table needs wiping down. Meanwhile the staff is chatting amongst themselves. Definitely in need of more training. On the plus side, you can't beat the .99 cones on Sunday, Monday & Tuesday. read more
