About Tam Tam Restaurant

Tam Tam turns out aromatic Vietnamese bowls and hefty noodle dishes in Parramatta with lightning-quick turnaround. Even with a queue out the door on Phillip Street, tables turn fast and steaming bowls hit the table within minutes. The kitchen does not skimp on size—regulars bank on packing half their dinner home for lunch the next day. The move here is the customizable pho, layered with rare beef, brisket, and tendon in a clean, spiced broth. For something crunchier, grab the crispy skin chicken over dry egg noodles, paired with golden pork spring rolls dipped in tangy nước chấm.

  • Lightning turnaround: Steaming noodle soups and stir-fried mains land at the table within 5 to 10 minutes, even when the dining room is full.
  • Hefty portion sizes: Hearty noodle soups and rice plates arrive packed deep, often leaving enough for next day's takeaway.
  • Custom beef noodle cuts: Diners can tailor their beef noodle soup with a custom spread of rare beef, brisket, and beef tendon.

    Diners can customize their noodle soups by combining specific hearty proteins including tender rare beef, brisket, and beef tendon.

    The chicken laksa was a highlight: a creamy, rich broth brimming with tender chicken and fresh toppings – utterly satisfying.

  • Crispy skin chicken dry noodles with egg

    Crispy skin chicken dry noodles with egg — another winner. The chicken is tender with nicely crisped skin, and the noodles are well-seasoned, springy, and full of flavor.
