Tom's Depot

The San Francisco omelette is a must try! It sounds weird, but the omelette is not overloaded with eggs / cheese. It's a perfect balance! Antonio's scramble is great, too! Good coffee and good service. Love sitting outside. I am gluten intolerant and have not had any issues dining here for breakfast

Quaint neighborhood breakfast stop. Had the breakfast burrito with chorizo which was stuffed eggs, chorizo and potatoes. I'll be able to eat my leftovers two more times. Hubbies had the 2 egg breakfast, one with hash browns, the other with country potatoes. My bff had the California omelette which had huge shrimp. The service was attentive.

Disclaimer: I know the owners. That being said, my review is, as always, just based on the quality of the food, given the price point. For Los Altos and the surrounding area, you're going to be hard-pressed to find a meal as reasonably priced as what you'll find here, that tastes good! If you're looking for organic avocado toast, this is not the place for you. But if you want a tasty omlette for less than $20, this is a good option (and really the only option in the immediate vicinity). We had the Los Altos omlette and apple pancakes. Both were delicious and came out about 10 min after we placed our order. We had gotten there close to closing, but they let us sit down and order. Coffee was a bit strong but tasty (and with free refills). My ratings never reflect the service, but it was good and friendly.

1/25/2023 Tom's Depot 991 Fremont Ave Los Altos, CA 94024 We went there for an early lunch on a Wednesday. It is at the south corner of the Loyola Corners Shopping Center with parking in the back. It is a clean modern diner interior with ample indoor seating. The menu is tilted to breakfast offerings with burger/sandwich choices for lunch. I had the fish and chips and the wife had Breakfast #1 with breakfast sausages. My fish and chips was good but not the best I've had. The breakfast was good, but it's hard to mess up this basic selection. The prices are reasonable and a good value. Service was good and it appears they have a substantial take out business based on the activity I observed. I actually tried this place for a hot dog, which they no longer offer. I would repeat for breakfast based on their extensive menu and value.

We finally got a chance to stop by Tom's Depot for brunch. It's on a busy corner in the Loyola Corners neighborhood, but there's plenty of parking in the back. They have a few seats on the patio, but now that covid is winding down (we hope), I'd prefer to sit inside. We had omelettes, but the menu was a typical diner. It had burgers, club sandwiches, and shakes. // Ticket Agent Omelette This was at the bottom of the omelette section, so I'm thinking it was the deluxe. It had all the ingredients of the veggie omelette, plus a generous amount of sausage. I saw a jalapenos elsewhere on the menu so I asked them to add some on. Perfect, hot cheesy goodness. The veggies were crunchy, and the meat nourished me with iron and protein. // Spinach Special Omelette Fresh spinach and cream cheese in this one. It sounds weird but it works. Both plates came with a choice of sides, like hash browns, home fries, or fruit. It also comes with toast or english muffin. Nicely buttered of course. There were jams on the table. Man, I love restaurants like this.
