“ If one word could describe my experience at Tamarind Tribeca, it would be “wow.” Tamarind is included in the Michelin Guide. It received a Michelin star when it was located in the Flatiron district. We started with the mushroom and truffle oil naan. Are you familiar with “manna” from the Bible? It was the miraculous and heavenly bread that G-d sent to the Israelites when they were in the desert before entering the Promised Land. This heavenly bread was light and almost hovered on top of the ground. The mushroom and truffle oil naan is as close to manna as I think I’m going to get. Heavenly and divine. We also ordered the Baghare Baingan (eggplant) and Chana Pindi (chickpeas). The Baghare Baingan was like nothing else I’ve ever had in my life. The eggplant is cooked so delicately and airy, that it almost melts in your mouth with the most savory and aromatic sauce. The Chana Pindi, while more hearty than the eggplant, also bursts with flavor and I may have said to my husband that “I could drink that sauce.” We ordered the Milagu Curry (lamb) and the Hasiru Samudra (sea bass). The Milagu Curry was as flavorful as one could imagine with a tomato and coconut and spicy sauce. The lamb was falling apart. The Hasiru Samudra was the most delicate sea bass I’ve tasted with a green herb crust that was absolutely incredible. It lays on a tomato sauce that adds a bit of sweet to the savory dish. In addition to the Michelin quality dishes, the service was impeccable. The servers “crumb” the table in between courses and they refill your glass faster than you could yourself. An added bonus is the bathrooms are immaculate. Not always easy to find in the city, even in the most exquisite restaurants. 5 stars for food, service, and ambiance. A true gem. ”
“ The food was amazing. The space is thoughtfully designed, welcoming and intimate. Service was pretty good. Might have had a new employee. ”
“ ** I HAVE A RULE: "NEVER Go To The Same Restaurant More Than Once!" ** NYC has SO many restaurants that if you keep going to the same one, you won't be able to explore the other ones or even the new ones! I love discovering new spots and love going out to eat. I appreciate good food! Unfortunately, I have broken that rule with Tamarind since it is one of the TWO best Indian restaurants in ALL of NYC! Out of ALL the Indian restaurants in NYC, there are only TWO good ones (Tamarind & Utsav). I've been here more than 10 times (I know I really went overboard with the rule-breaking) & this place does not disappoint! The food here is authentic with a modern touch! Of course, the service is excellent, but what else do you expect from a Michelin Star Restaurant! The dessert 'Gajjar Halwa" is SO authentic and you won't find a better one in NYC!! It's hard to make the gajjar halwa that excellent and Tamarind does it just right! I highly recommend this place! I wish I could attach photos with my review but I always forget to take pictures of the food :( Next time I go, I definitely will take photos! ”
“ Loved the food and ambience. We ordered appetizer samosa and they gave complementary pakoras . Loved the naans and got free dessert for birthday. It was super clean and staff was very responsive and made sure we got everything on time . Loved it . ”
“ Had high expectations going into the place because I heard great things about this restaurant. It is pretty popular and famous. The food was good, maybe even great Indian food. Don’t get it wrong but I think my expectations were just too high. It felt like decent Indian food where I was expecting something spectacular. The dishes didn’t really stand out. The service and atmosphere were nice. Also ate with my uncle who is cool. My Beli gave it a 7.5 and I think this is accurate for Indian food but might put it a bit lower just because I’m not the biggest fan of Indian food. I do like it but I feel like it can get repetitive and I with there was more meat in the dishes. Overall, solid spot. ”
