REVIEWS OF Tommy's Family Restaurant IN Nebraska

Kevin Darling

Great place to eat. Friendly people. Great food! Love their breakfast! One of my favorite places to dine out.

James Waterman

Had the spinach omelette very good. Homemade pie...like grandmas such a sugar rush... will stop next time too.

jeremy

Good service. Clean restaurant. The food is okay. I ordered an omelette and it came with no cheese. Everytime I have ordered an omelette from other places they always have cheese on them. So make sure you ask some questions before you order so you aren't bummed out when the food comes.

Luisa Abeyta

They feed you so well you'll pop! Fun old fashioned place. Hearty food. Great service. Clean.

Tom RImmele

Food was great.... bring your own spoon...

Mark Brown

Kathryn Wollheim

better than decent food at the right price but would like to see FRESH vegetables on the menu

Stan McClain

While staying in a local AirBnb, Tommy's came highly recommended, and we could not have been more pleased! Selections are abundant and prepared to perfection. Seafood was fabulous, salad was great with a superb house dressing, vegetables cooked perfectly, great coleslaw and service was incredible! We WILL return! You should experience Tommy's!

bill waltz

Probably the only non fast food restaurant in town. Good was good, basic breakfast choices. It was very busy for Sunday brunch. Omelet was pretty good. Toast had so.e very strange orange, yellow grease on it that would have run down my arm if I did not scrape it off. Pies looked pretty nice at least a half dozen various kinds. Staff was pleasant

Jamie Huskins

Friendly, clean and a wide variety of food that tastes amazing!

Amber Comer

Good food, good service! The fried chicken is awesome

Katrina Sandford

Come and enjoy

Donna Cannon

Good food, friendly staff, I wish they could expand, there is not enough room between the tables for getting in to sit down or get out to go to the restaurant.

Robert Kahn

Solid diner food and atmosphere. Service was great. Let us substitute items without acting like doing us a favor. We would definitely go back. Good value.

S M

Mama is the best!! Food was fantastic. They were super busy but our service was outstanding! This will be our new stop!

FJ EZ

We were camping in Grand Island recently, the weather turned nasty cold. Found Tommy's online and decided to try our luck for breakfast. Best decision ever!! Fast service, extremely friendly servers, and the food was so awesome, we went back the next morning. Would highly recommend!

Hannah Sommerville

The food was good country cooking, but the service was excellent! I went with my mother who can be very difficult and the server was an absolute dream.

James Waterman

Had the spinach omelette very good. Homemade pie...like grandmas such a sugar rush... will stop next time too.

Sharmin Cannon

We come here when we visit my boys, the staff is courteous and friendly and the food is VERY delicious and quite reasonable for 6 people. We will definitely be back!

tammy e vermitte

The owner is rude we were banned from the restaurant because my wife's steak wasn't cooked the way she ordered it so we sent it back

Dave Collins

Excellent food and service!

Matt Nikoneko

Became aware of Tommy's restaurant last year. Every time I come to Grand island this is my go-to place to eat.

Mike Hawk

The sign read seat yourself.. so we sat... For 10 minutes we waited and no one even approached us. Two parties that came in after us have drinks and menus within a cpl minutes. They noticably seen our frustration as we walked out and didn't even say a word.. 10 out 10 would not recommend. Doesn't matter how good the food rates if the service sucks.

Rebecca Matthews

Not a fancy restaurant, but the food is good! Service was great & friendly. Variety of different menu items, reasonable prices for how much food you get. If you order a seafood platter, be sure you're sharing it....it's a lot of food! Parking lot is always full....go early!

Skylar Sommers

Had the Storm Waffles. They were amazing.

Paul Charbonnet

Quality, quantity, service ... This is likely the most popular restaurant in town for breakfast, lunch,and dinner

Food and service, awesome!

Brandi Goddard

One of the BEST breakfasts I've had in a LONG time! Super fast service! The wait staff were all really sweet and stayed on top of refills and our orders were quickly served. Small family restaurant with a great atmosphere. Comfy booths, plenty of table space, good strong coffee, highchairs, debit/credit/cash accepted. My small group ordered breakfast at 11:15 on a weekday and it was phenomenal with big portions! I will definitely be back! I've heard great things about their dinner menu and that the locals say it's the best place for seafood in town. Would give 10 stars if I could!

Marlene Smith

Clean good service and the food was excellent;especially the homemade pie it's the very best pie I ever enjoyed.

Dan Saalfeld

If you've got a hunger for the best boasted fried chicken in the state then Tommy's is the place to visit. Besides that they treat you like family, excellent service & attention to details. They put fresh flowers on the table & that adds the touch of home to the experience. Nothing compares to them in the tricity area. Satisfaction guaranteed!

Crystal Rhodes

They are friendly, reasonable prices, get alot of food for the money!

Nicole Hathcote

We have been to this restaurant three days in a row, best breakfast, lunch,dinner and pie hands down. Friendly, fast service!!!

Peri Solder

Home cooking at it's best and large servings, well worth the money and drive.

jeremy

They feed you so well you'll pop! Fun old fashioned place. Hearty food. Great service. Clean.

Scott Johnson

Good food, good service, fair process

das mayhem

This is a local spot. I feel like if you want to go where the older locals go, this is it. Thats not a bad thing, theres a reason they go here. Food was pretty good, basic, americana. I have enjoyed every time I've eaten here. Local places like this need support, not easy to do what they do. Hope they keep it up!

Mario Cavicchi

Had prime rib, I enjoyed it. I will try other entrees. Good crowd, prices reasonable, good variety. Many items looked appetizing as they came out. We were served in decent time and waitress was attentive.

Rhonda Maskell

Wonderful food. Great service

Bill Frady

Seafood was good and cheap mostly fried but you can get some items broiled. Service was friendly and efficient.

William Thorpe

I've ate here a few times and foods always good and the staff is always great

Whitney

This was our first time visiting...home cooked food with a menu full of variety! Great service too. When traveling, we love trying local cuisine!

Dorothy Edwards

Giant servings and excellent prices

Brianna K

Great home cooked breakfast, huge portions, and wonderfully sweet server(Bailey). We stopped for the first time while visiting family(5 of us) 4/19. We tried everything from blueberry pancakes, omelets, eggs Benedict, and biscuits and gravy. Everything was cooked perfectly, seasoned just right, and bacon crispy! Bailey our server answered all our questions, kept our coffee mugs full, and had a kind disposition. Definitely will return soon!

cedric maney

Good food, reasonable prices. May have to wait a little due to the crowd.

Ali Juarez

Robert Fowler

Jeanne Wilke

Best little home town diner. Waitress knew elderly by name and what they wanted to eat. Food was awesome, made just the way we requested.

Daniel Luna

5 star service. 3 star american food. Inexpensive. The Greek food is the best. I would give the Greek food 5 stars

Lynn cagle

Great food, great service and great prices. I highly recommend this place!!

Patrick Meares-PMSunSet Pearls

I am so in love with this restaurant. They have some of the best food in Weaverville. The staff is always really friendly and fast and the managers are as sweet as they can be. The food options are great for pretty much anybody in the family. the prices are a little high but completely worth the food and the portions that you get.

Phil Grocholl

I had the breaded pork loin dinner, and it was fantastic! It was tender, had a great taste, and came with a salad, and 2 sides. I am told it is one of the best meals they offer, and I would agree with that. It was great a meal!

Stephen Medlin

Low quality food that tastes like it a poured or is a can. Not seasoned very well and too much menu choices leading to poor food. I wouldn't come back again.

Jenny Johnson

Tommy's is located on North Main Street in Weaverville, NC. Tommy and his family own and operate this establishment. They have friendly staff, and I love Ma-Ma, that's what I call her. She is the most wonderful person. This was the first time I had eaten a steak in years and it was so delicious that the sounds while I was eating it were almost too much for my family at the table with me!!! You cannot go wrong eating at Tommy's whether you live there or just passing through. Come on in and enjoy!!!!

Janet Snashall-Woodhams

Great priced Southern diner food. Large serving sizes, well cooked and plenty of choice. Lovely staff, great hospitality and plenty of parking. Such soft fluffy biscuits!!!

Shawn Lesley

Love Tommy's. This is my go to for fantastic fried seafood. They have a huge menu, but I always stick to their ocean fare. Portions are huge and most people end up taking half of their food home with them. Also, get the red velvet cake if it's available. Best I've ever eaten.

kris schara

Oh. My. God. Down home fresh comfort food, seafood, dessert, prime rib, Italian, and the size of portions is insanely big....I mean insane. You will need a take out box. Period. Three side choices with their dinners! Small, hometown feel and still busy and clean!

Jim Etzel

Great food, service is exceptional and very reasonable prices

Rick R

Great little family diner! The menu has a lot of variety and the staff are friendly. Reasonably priced and clean.

maria clay

Great food and very good service. Prices will not kill you either.

Andrea Carrazco

Tommy's is another favorite place to eat for Sherri & I. But Wendy was with me this time & we had coffee & pie. Very sweet & delicious! :) some loud people sometimes. But it is a family cafe.

LadyXaos

Good food and good people

bryon phillips

Service was great, food was not my style. If you like diner food this is the place for you.

Tom Clark

Great food. Friendly and excellent service from everyone

Drusilla Smith

The food was great.

Riley Retzloff

Good food, atmosphere could use a little help

Sheril Lyda

Great menu to choose from. Eat there often

Tim Greer

Hugh amounts of some of the best seafood I have had, that includes the costal seafood restaurant. It is a very popular place so you might struggle to find a place to park.

Tammy Knott

Went to the Ne state fair; spent the night in Grand Island, and needed a place to eat dinner. My friend and I are always looking for a great place to eat while supporting the "Mom and Pops" in an unfamiliar town. We did our usual Google search and came across Tommy's. I had been craving fried chicken, and that was the first thing I seen on the menu. We got there and the place looked like an old school diner, which I thought was neat. The waitress was nice, accommodating, but not overbearing. I had the fried chicken (obviously) and my friend, the chicken fried steak. Her steak was the typical chicken fried steak (really can't screw it up too much). Her mash potatoes were real; so that was cool. My chicken was fried well. The batter was the thickness of "original recipe" but the crispness of "extra crispy." The meat was very juicy. The seasonings were the basic salt and pepper, but it was soooooo good. Mac and Cheese was good. It was creamy and cheesy but basic in flavor. The shocker for me was when we asked about the pie. My friend wanted the strawberry rhubarb. I wasn't going to order any because I'm not a fan of sweets, but I noticed on the menu they had a "Sour cream and raisin." Wth!!! We discussed it a minute, and joked a while. Could not imagine the combination. Finally we asked the waitress about it. I mean, it's on the menu so someone likes it right? So we ordered it. OMGosh. That was such an amazing piece of pie. I'm not a fan of meringue, but the pie itself was incredible! My friend loved it with the meringue. Sour cream and raisins, who knew. If you find yourself in Grand Island and want a relaxed atmosphere without settling for fast food, you have to stop in at Tommy's. Order the Sour cream and raisin pie. You won't regret it.

Kaytlyn McCarville

Very family friendly and great food.

John Grant

robert parker

Staff is awesome and great food..

Mack Lowery

Great food .always a good meal

MaryBeth Fisher

Came in for a late night bite to eat. Party of two, were greeted and sat immediately. Right after we arrived the place began to fill up quite a bit, which delayed service a wee bit, but nothing unreasonable! Our food came out pretty quickly (a tiny bit of a wait, because I ordered fried chicken, which was AMAZING and totally worth the extra five to seven minutes longer than if I’d chosen breakfast food instead! Seriously man, this fried chicken was EXCEPTIONAL!!) I didn’t see anyone waiting at the door to be seated, unless they were behind someone paying their bill. Fast and attentive staff, more than reasonable food service timing, and a fantastic value for the price! Hope to come in again, soon!! Two thumbs, all the way up! Don’t change a thing, guys! You’re killing it!!

Rose

I got the popcorn shrimp and white fish, with slaw, and creamed potatoes and pepper gravy and hush puppies It was wonderful, The waitress was really nice, and did a great job taking care of us. The prices are very reasonable. The only thing I myself didn't like was the tartar sauce to me it had to much relish and Im not sure why it was yellow and that kinda of worried me that it was bad. But the taste wasn't very good. But That's ok the white fish didn't need the tartar sauce anyway . I do recommend Tommy's they have a variety of food to choose.

Ted B

High price and food not as good as it use to be. Not worth it.

Vernon Colla

Large portions, fresh seafood, packed house. Good variety on the menu. My only criticisms sweet tea not so sweet and small restaurant

Jasmine P

Nice little backwater breakfast hole

Henry Broadbent

The food was great but service was not . The waitress never got our salads and took for ever to get drink refills.

Mary Honeycutt

This is one of favorite places to eat. Very friendly people. Specials every day. And offers home cooked food.

Katrina Schmidt

Great service, great food! Our family really enjoyed our visit.

D W

Very mediocre. Had breakfast for the first time there. The sausage patties were cold and dry. Breakfast potatoes were boring and the sweet tea came out of a machine instead of fresh made. The fix is simple. Don't overcook the sausage initially. Put the pre-cooked patties on the flattop while the eggs cook to heat and bring out the pork fat. The sausage should be hot and glistening when served. Try offering a cheesy hashbrown casserole in addition to the potatoes. This is the south, make your sweet tea fresh. It is cheaper than the mix stuff. I will try Tommy's again sometime to see if it gets better. Also, offer more combo plates.

sara colburn

Love this place they are more of the old ma and pa style restaurant. Big proportions for a great price. Friendly staff with fast service. I really enjoy thier yummy pies.

Todd Sheffer

Great spot for breakfast. Awesome service with good food and large portiona at fair prices.

Kay E

Fun family place not the cleanest floors but with kids they enjoyed

brenda. Carland tomberlin

Omg can't say enough good things about this place

Leo M

Seafood was great, the service was very wonderful, busy place around five. The only down side is parking. You’ve got to get there early and getting in an out can be difficult. Other than that great place.

Karla Adams

Wonderful food and good service! Loved it!

Sherrie Byrd

Okay. Food nothing special. Waitress was sweet and attentive. Very disappointed their sanitation grade had dropped to a 91. Hopefully they were caught on a bad day.

Teri Kraft

We ordered our food and waited 45 minutes for the food to be brought to the table. We ordered 3 breakfast meals, a lunch meal (hamburger and fries), and a kids meal. When the food arrived at the table the lunch meal looked freshly made, but all the other meals were cold, the hash browns were very very crispy almost burnt. Plus, 2 other tables were seated and they got their meals before we did. I love this restaurant and frequently go there, but on this day I was disappointed with the food.

Shelly Swann

Too high for a family....food could be better

All American Handgun School Rene Hashe Keplinger

Daily Specials were very tempting. Group of 4 ordered assorted meals and everyone was happy with serving size and price.

Elliot Williams

Very good, no longer 24 hrs but very good

Michael Dewitt

Ate like a big dog, at a very reasonable price

Pat Giambattista

I had the chicken fried steak. It was hot, tender and tasty! I would come back!

Brenda Dee

One of my most favorite places in town to eat! All their food is good!

Rodney Bennett

Never been there before until yesterday. Got seated, the food was awesome. Honestly the best kept secret in 4 counties. Our waitress (i don’t remember her name other than she’d been out awhile with knee surgery) was great. We observed a couple of individuals behind us placing their order, as they were being very difficult. The waitress handled the situation with class and grace. So that, combined with the awesome food is why I’d give it 10 stars if I could. Kudos to Tommy’s!!!! We will definitely be back. God bless!

Linda Ledford

Great place, good food, friendly staff, fast service.

Lillie Henry

Full of great food and friendly staff.

James Johnson

Good seafood, small and always packed. Can get loud, center seats to be avoided if possible. People always around you and an occasional bump from the unwary customer or wait staff.

Rebecca Roberts

Tommy's restaurant is excellent. The food portions are huge. Enough to take home for later .

Theresa Jenkins

I love their food

Chris Scott

Always delicious! Family atmosphere. Down home cooking. Large portions. Great wait staff. Always a pleasant experience.

Brenda Harris

Great breakfast!! Piping hot, fresh, cook to perfection. Will eat there everytime we are in the area. Think about coming to Richmond

Demetreus Delgado

Stopped in from Omaha, great chicken fried steak!

Johanna Johnson

Best pie ever! And you can buy whole pies!

monica boone

I ordered grilled chicken and rice and was served just that with so much salt and this abundant amount of weird clear corn starchy gravy it was impossible to eat. The sweet potatoes were covered in the same looking goo but essentially just sugar. To top it off I had an anxiety attack after one of the servers came out and yelled to everyone "Who has a gray so and so car?" To the point that the whole restaurant got quiet. She yelled it several times loudly and aggressively. Then proclaimed "The owner Tommy is ready to go home and I am calling a tow truck". It's not only rude to the customers around but to the person who's car it was. It was I'm sure embarrassing. Why couldn't the server's ask their tables quietly instead of acting like the rudest nastiest people I've ever encountered. Just overall not a comfortable place to eat. The food was only for someone who has smoked two packs a day their whole life and can't taste anything or a cow who needs a salt lick. If you have PTSD also don't eat here. The worst dinning experience ever.

Sheri Perales

Always good food! Never disappointed.

Josh Purvis

Great food any time of day.

Brandon Gardner

Great food extrodinary service

Cynthia Rubinoff

This place is great! Even though they were busy we were seated right away and did not wait long for a waitress the food was hot and fresh and served pretty quickly. They don't get five stars though because they serve sides that you pick from the list of options and they were mediocre.

David Bliss

Who can beat their daily breakfast specials? No one! We had a waffle stack (on a Friday) and it was only $4.95. You cannot do any better than that. The make up for it with their drink and coffee prices, but the food is too delicious to deny this place a star. We will definitely come back here again and we live 2 hours away. We've also had their broasted chicken. The young waitress with the half cut hairstyle is simply fantastic. She is a GEM!

David Rasmussen

Good food, good price and friendly service

Casey Ward

Excellent food, value and service. Only slight against them is a slightly low sanitation score. Will definitely go back though!

Lorraine M H

Never judge a restaurant by its location or its cover. This little family restaurant was excellent. Very welcoming. All the staff was friendly and courteous. The menu has so many choices it was difficult to choose. The food was great and portions large with a very decent price. It was also delivered in good time! If I found a place like this closer to home (Charlotte,NC) I would definitely be a regular.

Cheri Hubert

Had a mini family gathering at Tommy's today. I let staff know earlier in the week that we'd be there with a group of about 20 at 1:00. Got there early and were pleased to see how busy it was, so we knew we'd made a good choice. At 1 we were seated all together, pitchers of ice water on the tables. Then 1 waitress took care of all of us. In no time at all we had drinks, salads, soups and 16 meals out at the same time! Kudos to Eric and his staff, it was amazing! From 10 months old to 90 years old we were very happy with our dining experience.

Jennifer Eccles

The service was excellent. The chicken fried steak was great. Don't order the mushroom omelet. It was made with canned mushrooms and processed cheese. Everything else was yummy! Good spot for breakfast.

The Beatles Rule

wonderful family style restaurant. Had never eaten here before, wide variety of things on menu for breakfast lunch and dinner. Waitress was wonderful , food was reasonably priced and delicious

Marilyn Cheek

Food is excellent. One certain waitress forgot to bring our salads out and when i finally got her attention ( she was getting suckers out for a kid , which is fine. But she totally forgot about us ). And we didn't even get to enjoy the salad because as soon as we finally got them our food arrived. We let her know we were not happy about it. So then she wouldn't even come back to check on us. Needless to say if was reflected on her " tip ". Another waitress took care of us. Thanks. She got her tip. We will be back as we have enjoyed Tommy's food there and at 5 points for years. We will not use her services or lack of i should say tho..

Theda Light

Wonderful food and friendly service. Loved every bite

Dan Schulz

We stop at Tommy's everytime we are in GI. Good food and lots of it.

Shane Buckner

Our food was delicious and the service was great! We will definitely be back!

Billy Michel

Something for everyone we had grandkids with us.

Laurie Wegner

Very good place to eat! Food and service was amazing! I have not been here for quite awhile, and still is amazing!

Deborah Compton

Basic, good food. A meat and two or three. Daily specials. Good breakfasts. Great variety from spaghetti to salads to sandwiches. The locals eat here!

Leah

Family style restaurant. Food was great and the staff was extremely kind! They went above and beyond to accommodate us.

John Place

Unpretentious family diner with great food and coffee. I had the 3 piece chicken dinner and it was excellent. Perfectly cooked and tasted great. Our waitress was very polite and the strawberry-rhubarb pie was tasty too. Highly recommend!

Tom Reardon

Best home cooked food I've had in a long time I'd recommend this to anybody. Great food friendly and attentive staff, and reasonably priced hit it up if you're looking for good eats!

Doug Andrews

Very good excellent food and service

M P

When we arrived the waitress waited to greet us because she was busy having a personal conversation with another employee before giving us her attention. We were then promptly shown to our seats in the back area that looked like food had exploded all over the place trying not to step on the food all over the floor we made our way to our table. We waited a good 40 minutes to receive our food which tbh was not all that flavorful. The water glasses they serve make you feel like your a child because of how small they are. I’ll definitely try another restaurant next time.

Lewis Dixon

My first visit, the food and service were great!!

Eugene Hansen

Home cooking good service.

Charles Habanec

Everything and I mean everything was perfect. The service was outstanding. Our glasses never got past half full. The waitress filled up our glasses every time without any hesitation whatsoever!! When our food arrived the portions we're gigantic. The seafood was some of the best I've ever eaten and I've had fresh seafood in Maine. Our leftovers are enough to where we will all be able to have a nice lunch tomorrow from it!! If you want pure dining perfection look no further. Tommy's is the best.

Larrbear S

Great food and friendly service.

Kara Bowling

This is the ultimate family restaurant! Delicious fresh food, reasonably priced, good service despite being short staffed at holidays. Our fried dill pickles were comped because my dad did not get his baked potato. Take your patience with you as there can be a line for waiting to be seated or take out...but it is well worth it!! Yum!

Sandra Whitaker

The food was delicious! The staff was so pleasant and very prompt. Definitely will pass that way again!!!!

Gary Burton

Legit DC

Great service and great food at this little family diner.

John Tidwell

good tasting food with fast service. very friendly staff. open 24 hours. plenty of parking. next to Heartland Event Center, State Fair grounds and Fonner Park race track. My family doesn’t always agree restaurants but we always agree on Tommy’s!! We especially love going their for breakfast! One of a dying breed. Family owned and operated. Not fancy but consistant and efficient. Sit at the counter or be seated in a booth. This place is a Dr Who call box that will take you back to the 50's - or teach you about the 50's if you don't know the 50's

april stump

Very tasty small family restaurant. It's very small and always busy when I've gone but has a surprisingly large variety menu. No frills or fancy decor, brightly lit atmosphere with very friendly and competent wait staff. So far everything I've ordered here has been cooked perfectly from ribeye and shrimp to lamb gyros. My boys love their burgers and phillys.

Robert King

This was my first time at Tommy's. The service was fantastic, the food was more than ample (bring your appetite) and the prices are very reasonable. I will be back whenever I am in the area.

BILLIJOE BigDaddyLego

Outstanding, delicious, unbelievable, down home food. Family Atmosphere and great service.

Great Food, excellent service. They don't have many family owned businesses like this anymore. Hint try the country fried steak with white gravy

Aj Shipman

Grest food but a little pricey.

Sonya Allman

Food is definitely not all home cooked... food is very generic

The Beatles Rule

wonderful family style restaurant. Had never eaten here before, wide variety of things on menu for breakfast lunch and dinner. Waitress was wonderful , food was reasonably priced and delicious

Ed Stackhouse

Really good diner. Portions are more than generous. If you get fried fish here, be prepared to take a ton home. Food tastes pretty decent. My daughter loves the Spanikopita. The Greek salad is ample and tasty. Fried were quite hot and crispy. The parking lot is always crowded as this is a local favorite. Prices are very affordable.

Lorie Lyon

We were in town for trap this past weekend and I was looking forward to trying Tommy's because of the rave reviews, and it's been a while since I've had some good, homestyle fried chicken. I was underwhelmed :( the flavor was good, but the pieces were the tiniest leg and thigh I've ever seen, they were barely bigger than drummies that you get when you get an order of wings. The "salad" was just some shredded lettuce and a few tomatoes with too much dressing. Who even puts the dressing on the salad for a to-go order?!

kevin tranmer

Always stop by Tommys when in Grand Island. Old school diner. Never been disappointed, ever. Wait staff always friendly.

Andrea Campbell

Brother Zachariah

I've never been to the restaurant.. But I've had carry out. So while I have no experience with the waiters/waitress. I have taken two of their dishes, the seafood and the burger. I'll start of with saying that the seafood was great, and had great flavor. But the reason I gave it a four star was because the burger was horrible. I even called and complained. The person I spoke to was actually nice even though I was frustrated. The burger had no seasoning, and was way too dry, it almost felt like swallowing cinnamon... I couldn't enjoy a simple burger and that's a shame. But I will say this. If you're looking for seafood, it's an amazing place to go. I truly recommend their seafood. And that's why I gave it a four!

Dave Callahan

Best food, Best service, Best blueberry pie in the world. Ever.

Mark Luther

Fast and friendly service. Nostalgic decor. Flavorful food at a fair price. We'd go back again when in the area.

George Peterson

Good food and good service

Brooke Lytle

The best food in town made by sweet people! I just wish there was more space in the dining room. It’s always so full and cramped. I think and bigger space in the future would be beneficial.

joe greenwood

I love the service, food and prices. Best damn diner in Nebraska!

Anthony Wells

Have been to many of the 5 star places in Grand Island and just by chance I came to this place with little expectations of anything good. OH BOY was I wrong! This place has better food, better variety and better prices than anywhere in town. This place for me and my friends just became our go to place for food in Grand Island. If you have never ate here you have to at least try it once! You will be happy you did!

Charles Cooper

Had supper at Tommy's tonight. Arrived about 5:30 and there was only about 5 people there. By 6 there was a line out the door. Very popular. Home cooked southern dishes were very good. Meat and three sides. Sides vary from one day to the next. The serving we're good size and the price was great. Staff was friendly and attentive. Homey atmosphere... Left full and content.

Jim St. Amand

Wonderful food, plentiful servings, quick and pleasant service.

Henry Menke

Friendly, caring service and delicious comfort food expertly prepared. I had steak and eggs with grits and biscuits. The steak was surprisingly large. “Oh, we give you food!” said my server. The homemade biscuits were light and fluffy and the grits were creamy. Delightful meal.

Kim Cox

Good food and service

Brenna Gomez

Bright cheerful diner style restaurant serving classic American style food and served by efficient pros. You get a truly fair exchange here for the price. Gets busy for a very good reason.

The food is excellent The Waitresses are funny and you don't have to wait a long time for your food

James K

We split the Philly cheese steak sandwich on wheat. This is a loose meat sandwich that really works- a little onion, green pepper and cheese on a GREAT wheat bread with seeds that they import from Omaha. We absolutely loved Mandy, our attentive waitress. Saw a lady with a waffle covered with strawberries and whipped cream that almost made me skip lunch. Dont take my word for it...

Francis Kuhlman

mitch2314

Best diner in Grand Island. Open 24 hours a day, very friendly staff who will learn your order if you're a regular. Probably the best food service of any restaurant in Grand Island, and certainly one of the longest running restaurants.

Steven Lockhart

Excellent service and food.

Kathy Bustle

Tommy's has great food and great prices. Their seafood is wonderful and always more than one person can eat. Couples share plates all the time and save even more money. The wait staff is wonderful too.

Robert Teague

Great burgers,dogs, onion rings, Turkey and dressing.. Nice staff. Excellent!!!

Seth Morgan

Very great food and even better service

Michael Dinsdale

The one and only place to eat after 3 a.m. food is great.

Ken Griffin

Very busy Sunday visit to this small restaurant in Weaverville. I got the last open parking space which was a tight fit. We waited approximately 10 minutes for a table. Once seated the service was quick and our waitress was attentive. I ordered the turkey and dressing which came with a side salad and 2 vegetables for approximately $10. It was excellent! My parents had the burger and both enjoyed it. All the staff were friendly.

catina pirnie

Food and service were excellent

Sandra Mc Mahan

It's ok. My friends love it here

Marc Thomas

You get for what you pay for and then some no matter what you get. It's not fine dining but it's done well. Heard from waitress that seafood and gyros were the most popular choices. I got a lamb gyro and a side salad. Very nice and done to take home.

Jacob Baldwin

If you aren't hungry it's your own fault food is great and two can eat one meal

Rusty Baker

Have lived in Grand Island for almost 10 years now and just had Tommy's yesterday for first time. Everything we ordered came piping hot and the quality/flavor was far above my expectation! From bite one until I finished my kiddos plates I was amazed. Priced right as well. Our waitress was also amazing. Took our orders patiently and did an great job with plates when our food came. Highly recommend Tommy's for any day of the week, any meal. Breakfast any hour. Great coffee. Great time. I'm going right now!

laci mcsorley

Easily 5 stars! My husband and were passing though and thought we would get a quick bite. Eric was our server and he was wonderful and always kept my coffee filled up. Barb was folding silverware near where we were sitting and this last …

kathy payne

Dinner atmosphere. I ordered cheeseburger & fries with a soda. It was delicious. The service was good.

Melissa Wimberly

Had supper here for the first time tonight and the food was amazing. Both my husband and I had the Gyro platters and they tasted amazing. The fries that came with it was actually very good also. The only reason I gave it 4 stars was because of the service. Our server was Luke. Unfortunately he was less than attenative with us. He took our order and then I noticed he was distracted by another customer and was in conversation with her for over 10 mins and then turned out order in. After waiting awhile for our food my husband walked passed him and saw our food sitting in the window. Luke was still speaking to the other customer, not waiting any tables or helping any other customers for over 25 mins. We asked to be served our food by someone else. Very disappointing because the place was cozy and food was great. Service left a bad taste in our mouths.

Beverly Hinkle

Food wonderful, lots if it. Wonderful staff. Great prices.

Mary Ellen Southard

Placed to go order over the phone and had daughter pick up the order. The order was short one meal. Called to request a refund for the missing food and the staff was obnoxious. Hope you enjoy the extra funds. We won't be back.

Robert Bell

Good service good food

Brittany Moore

I ate here on a trip to Denver. I'm so glad to have found a place to sit down relax eat good food and not feel crowded even though they were busy. Waiter was a young boy. He was very polite, friendly and gave just the right amount of space! When going to the bathroom I asked if we switched to mountain time zone yet and instantly a short conversation was held. It's not just another mouth to feed when you go here

Ryan Dillon

Sat and waited 20 minutes. Never was served. We're finally handed a pitcher of water and glasses. Got up and left. Won't be back

Mario Munoz

Great service, very good food.

Seth Bohlender

Tommy and the rest of the staff have always welcomed us like family every time we go there. I've also never had anything short of outstanding food from there. Highly recommended :)

Alli Traywick

Food was swimming so much in gravy to cover the burnt hard crust. The beef tips were over yellow rice? Isn’t that supposed to be white rice? We got drinks all right then the second drink she brought a cup of water and poured into our cups while I sat there in shock and disbelief. I will never ever eat there keep driving to downtown Main I’m sure you’ll find something better than dog food mush.

Jeff Kinney

Had Breakfast there Saturday morning. Very friendly atmosphere. Fast service and great food. I would highly recommend Tommy's.

Avi The NEET

The food and the service was absolutely amazing. Buffalo Steak was cooked to perfection. I'd definitely eat here again.

Keith Nielson

Food was good, waiter excellent, kitchen just a little slow

Marsha Yelton

Don't judge a book by its cover, it's a hole in the wall but the food is amazing! My husband had fried shrimp and grouper and I had braised lamb shank and we both had enough leftovers for another meal apiece! I highly recommend Tommy's!
