Tom's Rocks

Great Southen Comfort lunch at a fun location. Just like my Alabama granny once cooked. Thanks for the meatloaf, mac & cheese, collards, catfish, cornbread and sweet tea.

4.0 of 5 stars. I am speaking of Tom's in retrospect, since my current low-fat, high-fiber, no-white-bread-or-refined-sugar diet places the delicacies at Tom's Home Cookin' solidly in my past. But on cold days at…

Experience the YUMMY DELICIOUSNESS!

My coworkers and I went to Tom's today. We got there at exactly 11am. There was no line, and only one person in the restaraunt. Most plates are $8.75, and include a drink. Catfish is a little extra. The menu...

Better off going to a Boston Market.

Blandest food I've been served anywhere in the Denver area. Styrofoam clamshells (even for eating in!) make the dining experience even less appetising. If you liked your grade school cafeteria food, you'll...

The worst soul food ever!

Toms had the worst soul food I've ever tasted. I don't usually participate in these surveys, but when I saw Tom's listed, I felt it was my duty to let the truth be known to unsuspecting customers.
