Last time I tried TAGS (long long ago...) they where relativly
useless, since they couldn't handle C++ properly and would jump
everywhere, but not where they should. So "M-x grep" was always easier
for me. 

Anyway there is 'ebrowse', which seems to be specific designed for C++
and works a bit better, but I havn't yet tried to use it much.
