On May 15, 1946, a young Tommy Koulax introduced Los Angeles to a hamburger with gusto. Sixty five years later, L.A.’s love affair with his chili-topped creation is still going strong.

As post-drinking food goes, chili fries at the original Tommy’s on Beverly is about as good as it gets — and the messiest. And that’s (thankfully) been true for many, many years. Read more
There is nothing sacred once you wrap your hands around a double chili cheeseburger ; enjoyed by suits and sweatpants alike, which is exactly the range of clientele you'll find at the walk-up window. Read more

The cheeseburgers ! I don't know about the chili fries because I got a stomache, but definitely the cheeseburgers and also the chili dog ! Don't get a triple cheeseburger with a chili dog . U might bloat
Get three double chili cheeseburgers ...to to pound and one for tomorrow (don't worry, they microwave to near perfect the next day--30 seconds)...never be the lame who asks for "no chili !"
A great burger place to stop by they are open 24 if you are hungry late night go for it
Felt like a very authentic American experience. Try a chilli cheese burger and fries
The best burger that i have ever had in my life. The chili is amazing. I do not want any other hamburger but from this place.
The breakfast burrito is actually really good. Only served until 11am.
Chili Burgers , Chili Fries . So good the next day you will have a reminder of their great chili by what locals call "Tommy Fingers."
Now serving 1/4lb chili cheese burgers , no onions , extra tomato please! No milkshakes here though, HUGE bummer
Opened 1946. Original walk-up stand of a hamburger chain with over 30 Southern California locations.
Been raised on this stuff. Only negative I have is your hands will smell like chili for two days. First place I stop when I go back to LA,,, and I only go to the Original.
Best deal is the double cheese burger . Be sure to get everything on it. If you are not interested in chili be sure and tell them 'no chili '.
I left gasping for air after ordering the the 1/4 or was it the 1/3 pounder? I don't remember. I just was ready to pop afterwards. No regrets!
Always upgrade reg fries to chili cheese with onion fries ! Chili not diet and I would NEVER want it to be! I want a franchise!
Still the best burgers after 25years. Wish they would have left the soda cans instead of replacing them with self serve drinks
Best burgers and chili cheese fries in all of Southern California
Nostalgic burger shack. Stand 'n eat. Don't come expecting anything fancy ; it's your basic burger with a dollop of chili on top.
Various locations throughout Los Angeles, but this is the main one... featured in the motion picture "Grandma's Boy" - John, QA Tester

At this original burger stand they don't serve those amazing milkshakes - bummer :(
Chili and cheese is the best!! Especially when put on fries !! Yummy :)
I wondered why a lot of people come here to get burgers . I tried their burger and hotdogs but I was not impressed... I will still go for In & out...
If you're up for it, ask for extra chili on your burger and chili fries--they give it to you at no extra cost! =)
The chili goes with everything. Superb
