    This is a classic steak house from back in the day and the food is amazing. Love the fact that when you order the steak it includes the soup/salad and potato instead of everything being a separate charge. The price was also very reasonable, and the food was delicious. We will be going back for another special occasion.

    We shared 2 orders of baked clams, which were excellent. Three of us had prime rib and one had the bone-in ribeye. All were cooked perfectly and very tasty. We loved the salads with the house-made dressings as well. Our server was very attentive to us and made sure we had a memorable evening.

    Everything tasted good but the steaks were luke warm. Also my wife has a shell fish allergy and server used the same tongs she picked up a lobster tail with and served her steak she had a mild reaction.

    have always gone to Tom’s. I would have to say I was disappointed in the bread that they had. It was soft and not like the rolls that they used to have and their clams were very dry. They came baked, but they were on a napkin. Everything else salad soup steak was delicious and we love the ambience.

    The owner came out to greet the patrons. You don’t see that very often! Class act! The food was excellent as was our server. I’ve been going there for decades and the owner has taken Tom’s to a new level!!

    Wonderful overall experience. Josie our server was friendly and helpful. The manager Tony was very attentive and checked on us numerous times. You can really tell the difference in the new management overall since last year.
