The prime rib plate is too good! Seasoning it with their salt and pepper makes it even better. $22 was worth it!

Katherine M.

Rumor has it that this was one of Walt Disney 's favorite places to dine. If you get a seat in a back room, it certainly does feel like a Snow White/Sleeping Beauty cottage in Fantasyland!

Justin Dickerson

A city treasure. Enjoy a great cut of Lawry 's prime rib , or, better yet, try the Tam's signature Toad in the Hole for filet mignon in a giant popover / Yorkshire pudding bowl.

Veronica Chavira

I recommend the Tam O’Shanter prime rib cut. All the sides are family style , try the Mac’ & cheese and creamed spinach ! Live bands are there on weekends!

Jon Sanchez

I love this place. They host Plough Boys Celtic on most Thursday nights! What a great place, cozy , get food and libations!

Doug Wieboldt

The Prime Rib is a must, as are the souffle 's. Good wine list . Kid friendly . We go every time we are in L.A. area.

Offbeat L.A.

Opened 1922. Designed by storybook architect Harry Oliver. Classic Scottish steakhouse with ornate interior.

Domingo R

The prime rib is always outstanding! But if you are looking for a fine dining experiwnce , stay away from the pub . At least on Tuesdays, it gets overcrowded and loud ..Make a reservation !

Eater

The Prime Rib is still the best overall place for prime rib in Los Angeles, but this Scottish cottage in Atwater Village , owned by the same company, offers pristine prime rib in an unbeatable space.

Morgan Proffer

Amazing live music . Incredibly attentive and friendly service . Great food. Can't say enough good things about this place! Recommend 100%.

Chad Miller

The Toad In The Hole is perfect ale food: filet mignon , pearl onions , mushrooms , and Yorkshire pudding .

Steve Vaughan

Geeks Who Drink Pub Quiz (the best quiz) is now here on Thursday Nights at 7! Free to play, and there are fabulous prizes at the end (and pretty good prizes in the middle).

The sandwich bar is quality and a nice alternative to the full dining restaurant . Be sure to check it out!

Silent Hollywood

Regular Walt (the 1st Disney studios were nearby) was inspired by the pubs wood-frame Tudor building. Mary Pickford and Tom Mix were also fans of the hearty Scottish menu which has changed little.

eric bornemann

You get a little bit of LA history and a lot of Welsh rarebit . Nice patio on weekends.

Seriously great food and drinks, as well as good service . Great live music on Friday and Saturday nights!

Margaret Dreyer

The prime rib was amazing and the service was amazing! Definitely worth the price!

Bill Chott

The Tam O'Shanter is one of LA's oldest restaurants . Walt Disney and his crack crew of animators used to dine on prime rib and fine Scotch here. Now, it's home to the funnest night of trivia in LA on Read more

Anastasia McGee

Live music in the Ale and Sandwich bar on Saturday nights. Great craic.

Maggie S

I've only ordered prime rib here, and for good reason. The lemonade is good but perhaps a tad too tart , as it actually made my throat hurt.

Tracy Morgan

The 10oz prime rib was excellent. Mmm. Don't forget to tip at the carving station.

Greg R

Everything I've had here is awesome but can't miss the beef fat fries and Yorkshire pudding .

Rebs Y

Order the Moscow Mule : "spicy , not too sweet and sneakily alcoholic , with the odd, velvety fizzing sensation that happens when carbonation encounters soft metal."

Abi Panicker

Great whiskey selection , prime rib worth it, good deviled eggs

Bill Bell

If you like good old fashioned home cooking , this is the place. It's all good

Tom Patterson

Great Happy Hour at the bar

Jared Proudfoot

Ask to sit at the Walt Disney table (#31)! He used to be a regular here!

REN

can't go wrong with the Tam O'Shanter cut (medium) ????

Shawna Byrnes

Try the brisket sandwich w/ a side of thier house cole slaw at the bar with a tall glass of Harp. You will not regret it.

Karl Hobart

It's pricey , but I can't get enough of their brisket sandwich on an onion roll .

For lunch : Ruben Panini Sandwich is an excellent choice!

Neal U.

Just like walking into 1955. Also what a place to eat yourself into a beef coma. Omg.

patty b

Everything! But the prime rib of course!

We had oysters, clams, bluefin tuna and figs, sophisticated and delicious. For the main fish, risotto, gnocchi and rib-eye, it was an amazing experience food-wise. A long wait though, dark and cold. - Ji
