Our compliments to the Chef. Truly a 5-Star affair.We ordered the fish specials. Halibut with a ginger sauce and Salmon encrusted in pistachio with a pesto topping. Cooked to perfection with sauces to die for. Vegetables also perfectly seasoned and cooked.Add a bottle of wine!

I'd been wanting to try Tommy's for ages and finally the opportunity presented itself. It was a busy night (high school formal) so we had to sit in the bar although that may have been a plus. Our server (Melissa) was wonderful! Friendly, funny, helpful. There were some glitches with our food, but it all turned out great. I'd highly recommend the stuffed chicken as an entree and the bread pudding for dessert. The stuffed mushrooms were delicious too. When we left, with leftovers, we were both stuffed.

Wow, packed on a Thursday night, but the bar/lounge was a very comfortable place for a no reservations dinner. The wine list is back to full strength, the service is excellent, and the kitchen is doing the fine job we expected. Very nice date night, of course we'll be back.

A hidden gem. It disguises itself as a traditional steakhouse/American cuisine but this place is so much more! An excellent wine selection to go with classic steakhouse dishes...but also, some unconventional fare is offered. I ordered a rib eye that is served with guacamole, a special Chile verse sauce, house corn chips and pico de gallo on top of the steak (and the steak was flavored with Mexican spices). It was delicious. Plus, the place has plenty of parking, the staff was friendly and polite, and it has an excellent bar area.

Had reservations at 730, orders were taken at 8 and was told that they were sold out of prime rib, which is a little surprising that they hadn't planned accordingly. Service was slow but pleasant, drinks were just ok. Scallops were a little undercooked and weren't plated as described. My girls steak was burnt to a crisp on the outside but so raw on the inside that it was still blue. I had the cedar plank rib eye, and it was just ok. Unevenly seared, a bit tough, and the balsamic reduction was a little heavy on the vinegar side. Honestly, Outback does steak better, and they don't charge 60 bucks a steak. Oh, and don't buy the surf and turf...98 bucks for bacon wrapped filet and a lobster tail is an incredible rip off. Raise the standards.

Horrible that was my experience if you want raw or burnt steak and some box mashed potatoes you are in luck. Now to be fair we have been to Tommy's before and it was wonderful this time it was atrocious. The steaks were not cooked right, one wasn't even cooked. The whole experience was disappointing.

Great service, enjoyed the food and beer selection, nice atmosphere. One of the nicer restaurants in Visalia.

Beautifully decorated restaurant with friendly staff, our waitress was wonderful. The filet mignon was tender, delicious and cooked exactly the way I like it. I have eaten here many times and the food is always amazing. Yum...
