Ordered a chocolate chip waffle and some chicken tenders. The waffle doesn’t have chocolate chips in it, and the chicken is burnt/not breaded fully. I called and the girl said allergens is why they can’t put chocolate chips in the waffle, yet they have a shared dessert case with all the desserts together, including keeping gluten free and full gluten items together. And her excuse was “the gluten free one isn’t touching the others”. Which isn’t how allergens work. The chicken also tastes weird. Almost like no seasoning, but cornflakes. And it tastes more burnt than it looks. Maybe old oil?

Everything is so fresh and PERFECTLY cooked! The staff are friendly and happy to be there. I wish I lived next door to this place. I’d never cook again. They went above and beyond our expectations.

I highly recommend the chicken and waffles! Everything was amazing, but that dish was my family’s favorite!

We were so pleased, we asked to meet the cook, Claudia, for whom we gave a standing ovation.

Hadn’t been in a while and probably won’t be back again. We were seated quickly . We ordered the kids their food. No one came back to take my order for an unusually long time. Finally brought the kids food . My ordered was placed and noticed cook got ready quickly but food sat on the counter very long time . One of the workers was eating French fries next to my meal and the other worker sat on her phone the whole time . After over 10 minutes the worker realized to get my meal and bring to table . Still not once did anyone come check on us for drink refills or to see if we needed anything . The female worker was too worried about being iron her cell phone . Took a very long time to get a check as well. The restaurant only had 5 others inside . Food was great but Extremely disappointed in the quality of service which really affected our experience .Please do better and do something about the cell phones .

Huge after church crowd when we got there on a Sunday. I ordered fried chicken livers. With vegetables. I loved it! Never see that anywhere. Staff was nice. Very friendly. A bit of a wait for service. Family friendly. I’d definitely go back.

Great atmosphere, and top notch service. Abby was awesome!
I ordered the Bacon Burger, perfectly grilled bun and topped with a ridiculous amount of bacon! However, the burger was overcooked and bland. On a side note, I was charged extra for the mayo, onion and pickle that I asked for on the burger. I always thought those were included. The Apple crisp was a good sized portion. However, it too was bland.
I’d give Tom & Ray’s another shot, I just need to find the right item on the menu. Unfortunately, the burger isn’t it.

People are so warm, welcoming, and attentive, providing exceptional customer service. We were especially fortunate to have Miss Heather, who gave us the most outstanding service we’ve ever experienced. Coming from Texas and traveling here to explore new places, I truly appreciate that we chose this spot for breakfast. The food and prices were wonderful, and I absolutely love this place!

My sister introduced me to this place earlier this year and I have gone multiple times on Sunday’s. Every time I come here, my family and I always feel welcomed. The owner always goes around checking on everyone and the servers are kind and attentive. Food is great as well, I love their chicken tenders, sandwiches, and omelets. For sweets their pancakes are huge and very filling.

I enjoy coming into Tom & Rays on Fridays and having great conversations at the bar with Abby, Cindi and the other ladies that work there, as well as meeting other patrons. Despite living in Clarksburg, this has become a staple for a great breakfast and a casual atmosphere to break the remote work environment. LOVE their bacon egg and cheese bagels.

For our last two visits, we decided to let go of our carnivore appetite and dive into the sea. We had the most amazing fried fish. The catfish was to die for. From the cold Arctic waters and into the deep fryer, the cod fish kept its sweet flavor and flakiness. They were both unbelievable. Thank you Ms. Tracy, Mr. Bernie, Mr. Gary and staff.

It has been 5 months since we first visited Tom and Ray’s and the love affair still continues. Thanks to Mr. Bernie, Ms. Tracie and their staff, we are always excited to drive the 1 hour (one-way) to their restaurant for our Friday night destination. Upon arrival to the restaurant our eyes immediately go to the Specials Board to see what delicious entrees and tantalizing desserts are being offered. If we don’t tell the waitperson what we want for dessert before ordering our entree, usually our choice is wiped off the board – meaning “gone, better luck next time”. Hence, we learned our lesson and order dessert first now. When you see the dessert menu, you can kiss your diet goodbye. The pandemic and Ms. Tracie’s desserts are not helping our waistline. Sorry doc.

Damascus, you domesticated me today with your hospitality. We were driving in the general area when suddenly hunger hit us. Fortunately we found this hidden gem. We were given crispy potato chips with Old Bay seasoning while we waited for our food. They were crispy and delicious. For our starter, we ordered the spicy summer sausage soup. At first sip, my tastebuds exploded. The broth, vegetables and bits of sausages brought me back to the time of the Tang Dynasty, when the fireworks were created. The spices added to the soup enhanced the flavor of the soup but were not overwhelming. I never pass up meatloaf or fried chicken when offered by a restaurant. They also had another favorite of mine, Chef’s Salad. Our side dishes were mash potatoes, green beans, mac & cheese and Sky’s fries.
Let’s talk about the best fried chicken I have ever had in my life. It was light, juicy, fried to a beautiful golden brown, and crispy. What a perfection! The meat loaf with brown gravy was to die for. The Chef’s Salad was dazzling. The side dishes were delightful. Then came dessert: carrot cake. I thought I was floating on the Milky Way. It was so good I thought I was dreaming. What a beautiful way to end a meal. I would also like to point out that their portions are extremely generous. Our waitress, Samm, was delightful, polite and knew the menu. Chefs and the kitchen crew, you must love your job. It certainly shows in your food. Folks, whenever you are in this area, please stop at this restaurant for a pure delight.
