Tam's Burgers

Great food portions fairly generous love this place Best value prices are budget friendly

TURN HIS TV OFF. Amazing service, yummy burgers, and ambiance is off the charts. It's a classic for a reason.

Good food and large portion for the price. I ordered a tuna salad, and I swear I could have had this for 3 separate meals. The amount of TUNA in this thing. Also i just really like the way they make their tuna. Salad had, some spinach, iceberg lettuce, pickles, tomato, purple cabbage, and sliced boiled egg, and shredded cheese. definitely worth it.

Here because Kendrick put this place on the map due to his music video.AMBIANCE:Parking: Plaza parking but limited, room for about 20 carsSeating: Inside seating, good for small groups, maybe about 8 groups with 4 people each.Vibes: Compton has gems all over the area, this is pretty close to Compton College. The spot itself is nothing too flashy. They recently added a mural celebrating Kendrick's Not Like Us. music video. Aside from that, it was nothing too flashy, just your usual fast food joint. You'll hear the hustle and bustle of the employees working hard. Great place to chill or grab and go.FOOD:Bacon Cheeseburger (Recommend)Or what I call it the Wop wop wop wop whopper with some extra mustard on the beat. They say it's Kendrick's favorite. Verdict: Not the best but it does deliver - fulfilling, good amount of tomato, pickle, lettuce, mayo spread, cooked burger, slices of bacon, and a pretty big bun. Mix it with the free hot chili peppers for a good kick.Fries (Recommend)Solid. Savory, good crunch, and reasonable portion. This complemented the burger very well.CUSTOMER SERVICE:Awesome! Business started picking up for them during lunchTL; DR OVERALL:4.5 Stars. I know it's not gourmet or anything but I dig it! Reasonable prices, solid food, and good range! I know Hawkins Burgers may take the crown but it's the comfort and wide amount of selections that I feel makes this a fan favorite. If you happen to be in this area and want a taste of Compton, check it out!TIPS:* They got a drive through!* This was also featured in 2022 Super Bowl

Had to come to the iconic Tams #21 for the epic colossal burger and the hot, well seasoned, signature fries. The service is decent and the prices are reasonable. The inside of the restaurant is worn and graffiti ridden from the seating on to the bathroom, but honestly this is the norm for this type of establishment. If you don't want to deal with the inside, they have a convenient drive through window to order and get your fix of chargrilled greatness.

Got the pastrami double cheeseburger with fries, portions were pretty big and the taste was adequate but something about it just screamed low quality, the bun definitely was low quality, the fries were very plain. Kinda odd since the price of the meal was 20.99. The place was a little rundown and not kept well, the people were friendly. Not the worse place in town but definitely their quality and pricing doesn't align.

False advertisement....I order thru drive thru a pork chop breakfast plate for 12.99 which comes with 3 chops grits/hashbrown, eggs toast. I received 2 chops gritz and eggs, when call back about the order the server told me it only comes 2 chops but when informing him of the issue with the menu vs. order he agrees with me about the menu and what I suppose to receive but refuse to satisfy the correct order. Which will cause the more than 12.99 in the lawsuit I will send them for failure to fulfill this order

In a trek to find the important spots of West Coast Hip-Hop lore, I accompanied a friend to Tam's Burgers #21.The $1 burgers are no longer $1, but they are $4 now, which is about right. $4.49 for a cheeseburger, $7.99 for a bacon burger. Fries are $3.99. Cheeseburger - You get one wide thin patty that is flat grilled, shredded lettuce, tomato and special sauce on big hamburger bun. The bun is also quick toasted on the grill. It's a good sized burger that will fill you up. Nothing about it really stood out, it's about the same as most local burger spots. Fries - You get your money's worth with the fries, one order is enough for two people to split. They are medium thick, crispy and come with seasoned salt sprinkled on top. Maybe there is some late night rap history here, but don't expect anything crazy with the food. It's a local breakfast/burrito/burger place that's open 24 hours and it serves its purpose.

Dry salty not appealing poor customer service very disappointed awful. If you like your food salty then this is the sandwich for you

Got fried zucchini and came out flimsy and nasty like if they just microwaved it, never again. Hercules and toms are way better than this. Ordered 4 ranches and only got 2.
