I have been going to Tommy’s since I was a kid. They are an elizabeth staple and worth the travel to get a taste of home.

We took a drive to Elizabeth, NJ, to try Tommy’s Italian Sausage and Hotdogs. According to their sign, they were voted the best in 2018, so we had to see what the hype was about. It turned out to be a unique twist on a classic favorite.

I ordered a hotdog and a sausage, both served with sliced potatoes in pita bread—definitely not something I’d had before. The combination was delicious and very different from the usual fare. At first glance, I wondered how in the world I was supposed to eat something that size, and sure enough, I couldn’t finish it!

If you plan on visiting, don’t expect indoor seating—this is a walk-up window spot where you order and get your food quickly. We ate in our car, but on a nice spring day, you could grab a bench across the street. Since we live too far away to take it home, eating on the spot was our best option.

Would I go again? Yes, the drive wasn’t bad, and the food was worth it. The only downside was the parking—it was a bit of a nightmare, though that may have been due to the time of day (evening, when everyone was home from work).

Overall, a fun and tasty experience!

I visited Tommy’s on 5/31 and it didn’t disappoint me at all. I had the Double Italian Hotdog with everything on it and also bought potatoes in a cup which was delicious. It’s hard finding a good Italian hotdog spot nowadays especially a place that has great quality and flavor. The service was amazing from the time I walked up to the window until I left. If I’m in the Elizabeth, I’ll love to come back. Keep up the great work guys. Grade A.

At first glance, one might merely shrug this place off as “Oh, just another hot dog stand”. However, it takes more than just a nice looking front to make a great hot dog establishment. And this where Tommy’s excels. The hot dogs and sausages are top quality, the chili quite palatable, and the cup of potatoes is a satisfying compliment to your sandwich. The prices are very reasonable as well, and the service is very attentive and accommodating. There is only one drawback, and that one is a common occurrence with stands of this kind. There is almost no place to eat your food here, unless you want to sidle up to a narrow ledge and have a standing meal, or go across the street to Olympia Square and sit down on a narrow cement block. The quality of it all is worth it though.

I love the cheesesteaks. The service is outstanding and Tommy and his father are super friendly. The potatoes are fresh and pair perfect with a can of soda.

The Best Hot Dog in NJ? You can make that argument. It was a good experience once I finally arrived. The parking is a real pain , but that was to be expected. Heard so much about this place over the years, not sure it met such high expectations. The Italian Hot Dog was really hard to eat. More potatoes than Hot Dog so it was difficult to judge the hot dog itself. It was good, not sure I would go out of my way again, but you cant have that kind of success if you don’t know what you are doing. Worth trying.

Second stop on our trip from VA to Newark for hockey game on Saturday.
Another old-school place that has been on my goal list for a long time.
The place is in a very urban area, tough to find street parking, I would suggest the public parking lot at the SE corner at intersection of Elizabeth Ave. & S.Reid St.
It is really just a window service place, not a restaurant of any kind.
But that is not a knock, it is the vintage charm that makes it a great place to try.
In addition, the Italian style hot dogs in pizza bread, are fantastic.
The sandwich is really sort of stuffed pizza bread pita, as seen in photo.
Order with everything, meaning onions , peppers & potatoes.
The amount of potatoes included in the sandwich is over-whelming.
I wouldn’t order a separate cup of potatoes. It’s just too much food!

It can be messy, take or bring plenty of napkins.
Another suggestion- bring your own paper plates and plastic cutlery! The sandwich is wrapped in foil and the only utensil is a little wooden fork-spear, like the ones at Nathan’s.
But the potato slices at Tommy’s are so huge, the wood fork-spear can’t handle the weight.
All that said the sandwich is awesome, great grilled hot dogs and all the toppings provide nice depth of flavors.

A must visit, if your hungry, don’t go for just a snack, it’s a great meal!

Great Texas weiners and cup of taters, however, don’t get here too early, My cup of potatoes was hard, as if not cooked enough, and my hotdog looked like it was a leftover from day before. Still rate a 5 star, but will wait till after 12 noon next time.

This is something you need to know. A hot dog/sausage combo is under $10 and it’s 100% worth every penny. Another thing you need to know, the sandwich comes with a lot of the potatoes in the wrapper so if you aren’t CRAZY hungry, don’t order more potatoes. I ordered more potatoes. They were too good to stop eating and I was full for days.

The owner was very friendly and was short staffed the day we went so he cooked up some of these potatoes for us to try and dropped a plate for free out of the window. This guaranteed that we were ordering more, smart move. This sandwich is gigantic. A half of this sandwich is enough for any normal person to be more than full. Easily two meals for around $10.
