I wonnder which Mathematica version you are using since 
  Table[{HoldForm[foo[i]], foo[i]}, {i, 5}] // TableForm
is working perfectly (Math 5.1, Win XP).
Anyway, if the problem is in the HoldForm use the following code that
should work
foo[x_] := x^2;
foostr[x_] := "foo[" <> ToString[i] <> "]";
TableForm[Table[{foostr[i], foo[i]}, {i, 5}]]
