All the "experts" say it is a fruit. However it's the only "fruit" that is treated as a vegetable: it's put on a sandwich, make soup with it, used as a side with a plated dinner. So my answer is it's a veggie, to me at least. I don't care what the experts say. What makes it a fruit?

I actually grow tomatoes, and in my own research, found tomato was always considered a fruit. Then came the US government and they declared it to be a vegetable some years back

Citrus Fruit to be more exact. Same as lemons, and oranges, the tomato has citric acid in it.

It meets the botanical definition of a fruit but is considered a vegetable in the US.

A fruit. Actually more a berry I believe. Let me look into it. Wikipedia...here I come.
"The fruit is an edible, brightly coloured (usually red, from the pigment lycopene) berry, 1-2 cm diameter in wild plants, commonly much larger in cultivated forms."
