Restaurants near Verdugo Metropolitan Pumping Station

The Tam O’Shanter has always been good. We asked for an outside seating, but today is over cast and cold. Still we sat outdoor under a heater. It was warm enough and private. The Birsket plate at lunch is tone of their best . I had the BBQ scrimp , with grits and collard greens. The greens were to salty but good in general. We had H.H. Brown co=chocolate sauce on vanilla ice cream , ny usband’s favorite.

The food was outstandingly delicious and the service was excellent. Great view and ambience! Would definitely recommend this place.

We had a few snags being seated. The restaurant has a large draft area and when we asked to be moved to another two top that was empty we were told no as it was reserved. Except so was our table. The dinners were after us that took the table. We were offered a communal table seat by the manager but the host - he would not budge and honestly had an attitude all night even when we thanked him and said good night. We pushed the seating aside and dug into the menu with our waiter who was super attentive. Explained all the dishes. Made excellent recommendations and spaced everything out perfectly. He made sure we knew dishes were to be shared which we usually like to do anyway but made this made our choices even better. Let me just say start with the dates- you will be drinking the butter they are in! We added chicory with bacon vinaigrette which was a warm tasty bite of goodness. One of my favorites was the seasonal squash with farmers cheese. I can’t wait to eat the left overs! Then the main mushroom crusted pork chop. It’s literally one of the largest chops I have seen. So delicious. Get yourself some cheddar potatoes to round out your meal! We came with enough packages it looked santa had come early! The staff is supper attentive and continually acknowledged our anniversary which was so wonderful. The manager went above and beyond to assist. Everyone there seems to help each other and it creates a welcoming atmosphere that makes us want to dine again. Make sure you get a reservation as we are already looking at booking our next one.

Our server Geoff was Amazing! Immediately after seating me as I was waiting for my guest he let us know if we needed anything we could ask another server to assist. He was very attentive and one of the best servers I’ve had! My experience before wasn’t so great the last time I went, but I’ll be asking for him every time! Definitely coming back…thanks for making my experience one of the best ones I’ve had Geoff! They definitely need more servers like you!!!!

What I love the most about MYA is the behavior of the staff. Friendly, respectful and pleasant. Unlike other restaurants, they don’t try to push you out to recycle your table.
