Tam's Burgers | Our Story

Feeding families since 1971

Feeding families since 1971

Tam's Burgers started in Greater LA over 50 years ago and never lost its way. The food is still made fresh daily, cooked right in front of you.
Where it started

Where it started

In 1971, Tam's Burgers opened its doors in Southern California with one simple idea: make real food for real people. More than five decades later, that same idea is still driving every burger, burrito, and breakfast plate we serve.

Everything at Tam's is prepared fresh daily on site — you can watch it happen right at the grill. Our hamburgers are made with 100% pure beef, and there are no shortcuts anywhere on the menu.

With over 150 menu items — 40+ breakfast options and 100 lunch and dinner selections — Tam's is a full diner experience. Burgers, carne asada burritos, steak sandwiches, chili cheese fries, waffles: there's always something new to try.

Generous portions aren't a marketing line at Tam's — they're a promise. From overloaded pastrami cheese fries to triple-patty burgers stacked high, the food here is built to satisfy.

Yucaipa got its own Tam's in 2011 — and the connection has only deepened since. Guests here are regulars, staff are remembered by name, and families who grew up on Tam's are now bringing their own kids through the door.
