“ A group of three of us stopped by for a business lunch. This a hidden jewel from a bygone era. We all had the large classic cheese burger and fries loaded. The sweet tea was devine. The burgers were old school hand patted and cooked to perfection. The service was outstanding. A couple of notes to address some complaints in the reviews. If it comes loaded it has slaw on it which does cool it down. Ours were cooked as ordered and the fries burnt my mouth. Down home folks doing the restaurant business old school in a new era is tough but appreciated by those of us from a different era. ”
“ The food and service were both fantastic! I really enjoyed the sweet potato fries and my blt was perfect. We will definitely be back! ”
“ My experience with this restaurant goes way back to when I was in High School. We used to stop there after wrestling matches in Gastonia. The food was great then and still now. ”
“ I'm driving thru and saw this place, and it was a good stop. Large hamburger under $10. Local place since 1955. ”
“ I was VERY skeptical because of the other recent reviews. I got the lemon drop soda - BIG NOPE for me. It was just soda. The milkshakes were definitely and my bf got the grilled cheese double burger ? Anyway, it was very good. He loved it. I loved it. If I went again I would not get the soda or kids hotdog ”
“ Pretty good burgers and service. absolutely love their cherry lemon sundrop. it's served with a lemon and a cherry on top, and the ice is GOOD ice (ifyky) good price for what you get. I love soggy home fries so i love them so much. ”
“ Huge cheeseburger and fries. Everything was delicious. Black cherry and butter pecan milkshakes for dessert . Food was amazing and the service was great and friendly as always. Best local place to eat. Always great! ”
“ Tommy's understands what's most important about family restaurants. They serve tasty, fresh food. They are kind and courteous with their service. Some other similar restaurants in the area don't do those things well. We love Tommy's cheeseburgers, the poor girl (burger patties on sub roll), the thick Bologna and much more. Tommy's is a must-visit in Gaston County. ”
