Our family chose to come to Tamarind for Sunday lunch and genuinely enjoyed all the food and quality! The service staff were... amazing, incredibly polite and one of the main reasons we will be coming back here again and recommending Tamarind to ourfriends and family!

Thank you to the whole team fromChefs to dining room staff, we truly had a lovely experience during our meal. We will definitely be returning customers in thefuture!! Read more

I have eaten at Indian Bistros around the world, and thinking this would provide food of the same palate, decided to give it a... try. Ambience was good (although I opted for pick-up). But even after specifically requesting to keep spice level mild (whichwas acknowledged by staff who responded with “I’ll tell the kitchen to make it as mild as possible”) the food I receivedwas extremely spicy. I could literally feel smoke coming out of my ears. Extremely disappointed. And not visiting again. Read more

Overhyped and under delivered! Service - 3/5 Food presentation- 4/5 Decor & ambiance- 3.5/5 Food quantity- 3/5 Food quality -... 1/5 Items we ordered and you should NOT: Amritsar Fish - over cooked and no flavour. We sent it back, they got a freshly madeone, which is no different. Chicken curry(tomato sauce): better described as boiled chicken thrown in to curry sauce. MuttonRogan Josh: Same as chicken. Felt like boiled meat thrown into curry sauce - no flavour on the piece. Tamarind Grill: This is ashame. Don’t even bother. Overall - you should eat here if you have no other choice. I wouldn’t recommend this place tofamily or friends. Read more

In short: Ambience: 8/10 Service: 7/10 Food: 5/10 Detailed review: My husband and I went to this restaurant after reading the... reviews. We saw that the recent reviews were low stars, and yet we decided to still give it a try. We liked the ambience. Sincewe were two people, they asked to sit at a tiny table that can hardly fit 2 plates. The management must know the Indian foodcan't fit on such a tiny table. We asked them to change our table and give us a table of 4 (it was Tuesday evening and there wasno rush at all). To this request, the lady gave us a look and said that she needs to ask the manager. Ultimately, they changedour table. We ordered Bhatti Paneer Tikka Tacos. The description said that it contains Achari paneer and smoked paprika aioli.We couldn't taste either. It was a 4/10 dish. I am vegetarian and before ordering Paneer Lababdar, I asked the manager whetherit would be mild or spicy. He said, we can make it spicy if you want. That's not the answer I am looking for. Paneer Lababdarwas way too sweet, and no salt. My husband ordered Dhaba Chicken Curry. He said that it tasted okay. It wasn't so distinctive,and that he has had a better chicken curry elsewhere. Garlic naan was good in terms of size and softness. But it lacked thegarlic flavor. This restaurant is not worth the hype. Read more

We reached at this place around 8:30 pm on Saturday evening and got a table for 4 without waiting but just after that we saw... people lining up. It was jam- packed being a weekend so reach early to avoid long waiting. *Amazing ambiance and yummy food! Itwas all worth the money spent. I loved their presentation and serving platters ???? Dal makhni was epic! ???? Portioning wasgood too! *Service was slow maybe because it was super busy or could be because of low staff *Washrooms need to be taken careof during peak hours *I don’t know if someone noticed it or not that evening but there were just 5 songs repeatedly beingplayed that day on the system which was bit annoying ???? Despite of the negative feedback I would visit this place again ???? just because of the delicious authentic Indian food. Read more

Good vibe and food of course ????. We ordered veg appetizers, Punjabi mutton and pudina soda with garlic naan. Everything was... delicious. Service was up to the mark. Everyone on staff was polite, friendly and professional. negative points for - . Theambiance is great but there was some carpentry work in progress when we visited the restaurant .. which ruins the dine-inexperience. Initially, some extra food items were charged in the bill.. it took some time to get it corrected. Also, the Punjabimutton dish - more than half of the dish was full of bones ???? and quantity was less compared to price. Other than the above.Everything was great.. gonna try this restaurant one more time for sure. Read more

Loved the outdoor patio! Beautiful atmosphere and yummy food. Got a lot of different items and all were good. Recommend the... chicken platter and garlic nann. We also tried the panipuri shots, dahi ke kababs, and th3 carrot cake. Read more

We were there on a busy long weekend and were hosted good. There was a usual wait time and then had to order everything at a go,... but the food kept coming in gradually which was good. We were fan of their cocktails & mock tails, also their appetizers. Weloved palak kebabs. Jackfruit was something we went to try & we loved it in tacos were not a fan of it in main course (kathalmasala). Their quantity is enough for 4 people. Deserts were served in ample quantity which we didn’t expect and weredelicious! We will visit back soon for trying out more dishes. Read more
