Tom & Eddie's

Will likely not try it again - hated the "Korean BBQ" specialty - it was butchered (sooooo over cooked) and my friend hated the ground chicken, brown sauce was gross! We left 1/2 to go in waste in disgust for our selections and that's not cool.

I went there for the first time this evening about 6:00.  The place was very busy.  I was duly pleased because I was not forced to endure yet another meal from Chipotle.

I thought that the atmosphere was bright, cheerful and clean.  The service was quick, courteous and accurate.  I have to admit that I was duly impressed by the technology that they use to locate patrons once they are seated and the food is ready.  Also, the "call" button, which I did not try, was a neat option.

I ordered a primavera burger and some sweet potato fries.  The burger was fine, but it had a gamey taste, somewhat of a turn off.  The toppings of pesto, spinach, sun dried tomatoes, avocados and caramelized onions were were thin, but OK.  My current burger standard is that of what I get as a bacon cheeseburger at The Patio.  The flavor and texture of the beef was not up to par.

The sweet potato fries were delicious.  I kept on thinking that the flavor reminded me of something one might find at a food trailer at a carnival midway. It was a perfect combination of deep fried carbohydrates.

I am tempted to come back to try one of their chocolate shakes, which seemed to be a very popular item.

The shelving where all the bottles of condiments are kept is a neat take on distributing such items.

The men's bathroom is rather tiny for the size of the establishment and I am somewhat surprised that Naperville code allowed it.

I might go back again and try a salad or another type of main course.  The prices are a bit high, but then again, they're not serving McDonald's Big Macs.

$10 for a fantastic turkey purger with ketchup and grilled pineapple and amazing sweet potatoe fries and a diet root beer.  I ate at the Tom and Eddie's in Lombard around Christmas and thought the food was excellent.  I was in Naperville today and again, the food is terrific.  The fries--not greasy, not overly salted, and so they taste like sweet potatoes..loved them.  My burger was moist (how did they manage that with turkey, i wish i knew), and the grilled pineapple were very tasty. I like that the food seems fresh and real versus oversalted and overbuttered/oiled or whatever.  Did not feel like i was eating "fast food" even though, i know I was..lol.  The restaurant was clean and so was the restroom.
