The chain specializes in Yunnan-style "mixian" (米線) rice noodles, which are offered in the "cart noodle" (車仔麵) style where patrons select their toppings according to taste. Customers can also select from various soup bases that span a range of spiciness, from mild to extremely spicy.

History
Tam Jai was founded in 1996, under the name "Tam Jai Mi Xian" (譚仔米線). Following a dispute between the shareholders the company split into two chains with similar names, Tam Jai Sam Gor (Tam Jai Three Brothers) and Tam Jai Yunnan Mixian (Tam Jai Yunnan Rice Noodles).

Both brands were bought by Japanese udon noodle restaurant operator Toridoll in 2018 and consolidated under the Tam Jai International name. Tam Jai International runs both brands out of a consolidated kitchen.

Toridoll launched an initial public offering for the Tam Jai business on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange in 2021. Since then Tam Jai has expanded to operate restaurants in four cities in Southern China, as well as outlets in Singapore and Japan. In November 2023 the company announced relationships with the potential to operate franchises in Australia and Philippines.

One of the founder's children, Chris Tam, was the husband of Abby Choi who was allegedly murdered in 2023.
