Tommy's Joynt is a classic San Francisco Hofbrau-style restaurant serving traditional American comfort food at budget prices. Order the hot pastrami sandwich, roast beef with mashed potatoes, or corned beef—portions are generous and the Irish Coffee rivals the famous original. The vintage decor with red-checkered tablecloths and dark wood booths feels like eating at your grandma's house, though the atmosphere can get moderately noisy during busy times.
