My Review by catb359407194 via Citysearch on 2/5/2014

great food-beers-staff-cash only -- when I lived here I loved to come to Tommy's -- either alone or with friend(s) -- one can share a table with others and not feel pressured to visit - one can read, etc., eat and drink economically and…

Awsome SF staple by StephanM via Citysearch on 7/8/2010

i have had everything on the menu, which is posted on the wall. it is all good in the hood. you get your drinks from the bar or a waitress after you get your meal. dont skip the free pickle bucket right after the cash register. fun to sit…

Average food, below average staff by CSMobileUser via Citysearch on 3/9/2009

Located before the intersection of Van Ness and Geary, with less than stellar parking, Tommy's Joynt can be found. I was more than excited to go to this dive after watching it on the Food Network show, Diner's, Drive-in's, and Dive's. I…

nothing special. by BENIGNO M via Insider Pages on 2/4/2009

Incredibly long wait, your hunger would have passed if you go here on a Friday or weekend night. Way too expensive for a very undistinguished menu. You're paying for its location--but you're within just a few blocks of some much better,…

Like Cambell's... by Tone Def . via Insider Pages on 11/20/2008

It's MMMmmMMMmmm GOOD! Great spot for sammiches, from corned beef to fresh sliced turkey! An yo gotta get some pickles from the barrel as a side! I usually try the special too!

An SF Institution is right by Mindy G via Insider Pages on 11/9/2008

I totally agree with the previous review. You either love it or hate it. And I love it! Yes, it's cafeteria style and you're eating on benches, but that's the charm of it.

Chain Restaurants Bow Before Thee by babblingscribe via Citysearch on 10/5/2008

Tommy's Joynt is so full of eye gouging craziness you could consider this the mother of TGIF, Apple Bees, Ed Debevics, and all the others. It's insane. The buffet style serving, the beer list, and the fun make this place awesome and truly…

One of the Originals by diverdown4u via Citysearch on 11/6/2007

As a native San Franciscan of over forty years, Tommy's Joint is a place that my dad used to visit as well as myself. A stop over for many celebs during the hay day of the rat-pack and such. This place has all the true ambience of a San…

Great Spot for some Buffalo Stew and a Cold Beer by monkeyknowsbest via Citysearch on 8/31/2007

My buddy Dave took me to Tommy's Joynt when I first arrived to SF back in 2000. This place is a true SF landmark, and remains consistent each and everytime I visit. I just wish my Grandfather was still alive to join me there for a beer.

Great sandwich, weird decor by jmkaliko via Citysearch on 8/9/2007

I really enjoyed my pastrami sandwich, thought it was really good actually. I did pick a lot of fat off though, but I thought the meat and the bread were great. I didn't get any sides, so no comment on those. The thing I didn't like was…

They don't actually make food you order to take out by lambtunafish via Citysearch on 7/3/2007

The star is for the crappy service. I didn't even get the food. I just called in an order for take out, and the lady on the phone said it'd be ready in 10 minutes. After walking through the Tenderloin to get there, the lady working told…

Filled up! Great food. by spektorgadget via Citysearch on 5/13/2007

Talk about being stuffed! Your last ten bucks will have you limping out satisfied! Hot roast beef, quick to serve1 what more can you ask?

Let the Booing Begin by the_chinchilla via Citysearch on 2/7/2007

I think that this review will probably get the same reception as when I march into a Giants game wearing Dodger Blue!! Tommy's WASN"T BAD but it wasn't a blow-my-socks-off WOW experience either. It was just OK in my book!! I went there…

Good and Cheap Food FAST in an Eclectic Environment by dancergirl21 via Citysearch on 8/31/2006

It's a bar-like place with LOTS of seating, but the space is so designed to make it feel cozy (it's not just one large room). I'm amazed at how fast they're able to serve food up (cafeteria-style) and it's good, and they even have salad.…

Fantastic! by dextersf via Citysearch on 8/27/2006

Can't believe I have lived here four years and hadn't been to Tommy's Joint! The minute I walked in I fell in love with the place! The buffet style food looked mouth watering. I got the corned beef and cabbage plate and a side of baked…

Cheeze, pleeze by highwire via Citysearch on 7/31/2006

My girlfriend's been refusing to go here for years. Meat, beer, more meat and beer. I eat a lot of expense account meals so a meat and grease binge once in a while is mandatory. Great!

SF Hofbrau by Joanne G via Insider Pages on 2/8/2006

You either love it or hate it, but there's no arguing that Tommy's Joynt is a San Francisco institution. Their place is dingy and falling apart, but it's always packed with people who come for the enormous wealth of food they serve for…

KILLER PASTRAMI by hangoutguy via Citysearch on 1/12/2006

Before you even walk into this landmark restaurant a smile will take you over as soon as you see the exterior of the building which has a brightly colored muralon it. Then you step into the place and you can see you have just been…

Food fit for a warrior by s2k via Citysearch on 1/12/2006

The Joynt isn't your average restaurant and because of that it is a unique eating experience in SF. Meatlovers welcome to Valhalla-- grab a lamb shank, order up a pint, and prepare for Odin's booming voice to order you to strap on your…
