Tam's Cuisine Of China

Ive been here prior to covid and also i moved. It was my first time back in a while. The food was not as great as i remember they've changed the typeof noodle for chow mein it use to be amazing before. Again I've been here beforw never have they charged the tip without asking which is not ok but I was going to leave a dollar more in cash but since they made the decision for me oh well. Eggrolls are still amazing. Just a heads up its on a pricier scale than most Chinese restaurants.

I walk in, and a quarter of the dinning tables were covered with cardboard boxes and what looked like recycling. Weird, but ok. Then the waiter brought us some tea. But the teapot was rusty so I didn’t drink it. We then ordered our food. I shortly heard what I thought was someone clipping their nails. My family quickly agreed and then walked to the back to find THE WAITER CLIPPING HIS NAILS. He wasn’t in the kitchen, although who does that on the job?! Anywho, I still ended up eating the orange chicken with the lunch combo, so it was a pretty big meal. We had finished and then had to ask for a check. Most likely since the waiter who had eventually brought it had definitely come back from a smoke. Not to mention there was another employee of his phone the entire thing we were there. He literally didn’t do a thing 😅.I apologize for the length of this review. I was quite disappointed.

Went here on a whim today when I needed a bite on my lunch break close by. I ordered a combo plate of BBQ pork with veggies. I was a little taken back by the price, but let me tell you it was entirely worth it. Enough food for both my lunch and dinner today and I ate every single bite. Everything was absolutely delicious. I could have gone without the egg roll, it wasn't anything special but that's just me knit picking here. I've had some hit and miss Chinese food in my life but this one is a winner. Even after nuking in the microwave 8 hours later the veggies were in perfect form and maintained its freshness. Impressed and I will be back soon. The gentleman that took my order was so friendly too !

Clean environment and very flavorful dishes (not sure if is loaded with MSG). However, the service is very poor. They are not flexible enough to offer noodles without chicken and wont even consider to check with the chef for any vegetarian options. This is not a difficult task for any business that depends a great deal on customers satisfaction. I wonder how compliant they would be to customer suggestions due to certain food allergies. After our meal, the waiter came to pick up the plates and i practically had to turn my head back otherwise he would had hit me on the face. I know the culture is not that acomodating but Tam's may want to consider that a friendly and respectful treatment to its customers would do better for its business. May you continue rising or falling~~~

We had pork fried rice and honey chicken. The chicken was stringy and with grizzle and the pork in the fried rice had chunks of fat in with it. The dishes were prepared well but the quality of the meats were very poor. This combined with very high prices makes Tam’s get a generous two star rating.
