What User likes about Tam's Chinese Cuisine:
I love Tam. I'm sick. You make the best comfort brown gravy tofu, buddha vegetables, vegetables chow my noodles, eggplant with tofu. The only time I've ever been disappointed was the last time I didn't get enough curry on my Singapore noodles. It is usually beautiful, and they are always generous when you type what you want in the question of box. Tam's is my (Asian) mother. 3. Plus, I love their delivery, very fast... View all feedback. What User doesn't like about Tam's Chinese Cuisine:
The price was relatively low and the quantity was okay but the quality is not good. The food doesn't taste very good. I know this is in Santa Cruz but they really can't compete with restaurants in the Bay Area. I'd actually go to panda before this place even though I'd rather support small local businesses.

I’m a little concerned about how food is being handled in the back kitchen. This place has poor hygiene. I will not be returning.

I was there to eat something, it was delicious and when I went into my car, I saw this beautiful mural before my eyes WOW!

Very friendly staff. Good food. Bar wear masks that are estimated

Tam’s restaurant in Santa Cruz has garnered mixed reviews, intriguing patrons with its extensive menu and reasonable prices while drawing criticism for uneven food quality. Some diners have praised the Cantonese-style dishes, highlighting the generous portions and fast delivery service. However, numerous complaints have surfaced regarding bland flavors, deceptive pricing, and unenthusiastic staff interactions. Though certain dishes like Kung Pao Chicken received positive mentions, others, like the fried tofu and walnut shrimp, disappointed with their lackluster taste. While the ambiance, including outdoor seating and local art, adds charm, the overall experience remains inconsistent, leaving potential diners cautious.
