We stopped by Tomlin last Friday evening with our two kids and they got us seated right away even though it was pretty busy. The staff member who took care of us was great with the kids, brought crayons over without us even asking, and checked in just enough without hovering. My son inhaled the mac and cheese and my daughter actually ate her whole plate of fish and chips, which never happens. It's rare to find a spot that feels relaxed for a family dinner but still turns out food...read full review
Stopped by for a late lunch last Saturday afternoon and ended up staying almost two hours because the patio was that pleasant. The pan seared pickerel was honestly the best fish dish I've had in Thunder Bay, flaky and perfectly timed. Our server kept checking in without hovering and even recommended a local beer that paired really well with the meal. Parking right behind the building made the whole trip easy, and I'm already planning to bring coworkers back for a weekday dinner.
The wedding catering team are amazing. Taylor & Valin are awesome bartenders and Rhylan the server was excellent.

Tomlin is a popular restaurant that offers a fine dining experience. On Tuesdays and Wednesdays, it's best to arrive early to avoid waiting in line for their burger specials, which are "A-mazing!!!". The atmosphere is lively and great, with awesome vibes, although it can get loud inside, making conversations difficult across the table. The menu features a range of dishes, including steak tartare, tuna tataki, lamb shank, and spaghetti with rich but refreshing red bell pepper flavor, all of which are absolutely amazing. Recent visitors praised the food and drinks, mentioning that the food was very tasty, served fast, and offered good portions. The burger is considered by many as the best in town, cooked to perfection with fresh ingredients and served on a sesame seed bun with awesome fries or salad. The restaurant also has a nice bar area and plenty of seating, making it a great spot for drinks or dinner. Service was described as fast and friendly, with staff having a good sense of humor. While the noise level can be high, especially when busy, the lively and vibrant atmosphere remains enjoyable. Prices are reasonable, especially compared to Toronto, and many recommend making reservations due to the small size of the place. Overall, many consider Tomlin a must-visit spot for its great food, lively environment, and friendly service.
