Opened in June 1922, The Tam O'Shanter boasts a rich, storied history and warm, inviting atmosphere. We’re proud to be in our 10th decade of continuous service. We originally considered it a quiet pastoral road stop, since Los Feliz Boulevard was just an unpaved country lane traversed by rabbits and rabbit hunters, in that order.Everything changed when Walt Disney and his animators, set designers, and crews began trekking out between takes for a bite and a refreshment. So often, in fact, that the Tam was once dubbed “The Studio Commissary.”Join us and see why the Tam is said to have been Walt’s favorite restaurant!As a family-run establishment, we’re committed to keeping our community safe. We always practice strong hygiene protocols and rigorously adhere to all CDC food safety standards.

    Overall great experience. It was a bit confusing that day to find valet since they changed it that day due to construction. So we ended up parking in the self parking which was $18. You go through two elevators to reach the restaurant which is on the 71st floor. We had a reservation so we were seated promptly. Jordan gave us some knowledge about wines and some interesting info about older ones. While we were waiting, they gave us a complimentary dish to taste. It was a three course prix fixed menu to choose from. First course, I got the Crudo, but I think two pieces of my fish dish went a little sour/fishy cause it tasted off. However the rest of the pieces was delicious. The ribeye was delicious. And dessert did feel like another whole meal. Our server moved us to window once a table was empty during dessert for the birthday boy. Shout out to Jasmin. Overall on the pricey side since we got a bottle, but loved the views, atmosphere, and food.
