The pizza itself has a ratio of 2cr/1ce/1ch*. Their crust gets a 2 out of 5. Cooked on sheet pans, it sounds good on paper. A square box should might as well contain a square pizza. But the end result is much more like a homemade pizza than something from a restaurant. Maybe they don’t have a real pizza oven at Tom’s. The end result was lacking in chew and rise, likely due to being cooked at too low of a temperature. The dough was probably also underproofed. Though the bottom was somewhat greasey and enjoyable to stuff into my face. The flavor was also present, though somewhat lacking in yeasty sweetness.

Their sauce gets a somewhat generous 3 out of 5. It’s somewhat watery and bland, but there’s nothing disagreeable about it. For style, I do give Tom’s a 5 out of 5. The place has no-frills in a way that’s more genuine and cozy than places that are either trying to be hip or just don’t have their act together. Instead of plates, diners are presented with a couple sheets of wax paper, which is fine. Better than styrofoam, for sure. Diet cokes are plentiful and everything has its own signature Tom’s, non-pretentious style. But why is their ranch dressing pure white? I didn’t want to ask.

For overall quality, I’ll give Tom’s a 4 out of 5. While their pizza recipe and method aren’t exactly up to snuff, everything was made with love, by people who seem to care about what their doing. So Tom’s final score is 70%. While I don’t see myself getting take-out from there due to a craving, I will definitely return to have a chill hang once I have some friends to do so with.
* There is a scale for thickness of crust. 1 is paper thin, usually new york style. 5 is a sicilian or thickly crusted deep dish. Papa John’s would get a 3. Pizza Hut pan pizza would get a 4.

There is a scale for the volume of sauce. 1 is a very thin spread. Not enough to make a 1 crust become soggy. 1 sauce with any other type of crust will make the pizza seem like cheesy bread. A 5 for sauce would be a lake between a curved bowl of crust and cheese. Papa John’s would get a 3. Pizza Hut would typically get a 2.

There is a scale for the volume of cheese. 1 is a dusting of a finely shredded cheese. The sauce will be visible and there may be holes in the coverage. 5 is a piling that spills across your pan (or box) when a slice is pulled away. Papa John’s would get a 3. Pizza Hut would get a 4.

To make it simple, I write these ratios for mass and volume in code. CR means crust. CE means sauce. CH means cheese. And the final reading will look like 2cr/2ce/2ch. Got it?

Local gem. If you want to know where locals go, this is on the list. The fried mushrooms are my personal little guilty snack. Pair those with a Dr Pepper and you are good to go!

It’s always a great experience at Tom’s. I always make sure to stop by when I’m in the area. The food is great and it brings back memories of my Uncle Tom who started Tom’s pizza a long time ago

They were in Orlando years ago with 30 different locations. This is the last one. The pizza was just as I remember 40 something years ago. WOW! That was great, thank you. Desiree our server was fantastic and very polite, especially considering I spilt my water on the floor. LOL There are no words to describe how good, come and experience it. IMO Your life will be more complete for doing so.

Whatever you order here, make sure to get a few extra sides of ranch dressing. I don’t know how they make it or where they get it from, but it is amazing. I don’t eat ranch dressing anywhere. I don’t even like ranch dressing. Except for at Tom’s. The wait staff is super friendly and treats everyone like a regular. And the owner, Mrs. P. treats you like family. She lights up the dining room whenever she visits tables. Just a good hometown vibe where you are made to feel welcome. There is nothing like Tom’s pizza. Highly recommend. And a bucket of ranch dressing.
