There was one customer waiting, and not another person. I waited about ten minutes. My son loves chicken Tikka masala, so we ordered him some. It is spicy. I'm into a moderate spice, and this is burning my lips as I type. There was no option when ordering online to determine level of spice so we weren't ready for that. Beyond the spice the chicken was tough, so even if the spice was toned down the chicken wasn't great. The tandoori chicken is nice and flavorful and tender. $17 for three drumsticks and two thighs might be a bit steep. Overall not an overwhelmingly good experience.

I went to Tamarind Indian Cuisine on the last day of my Daniel Fast. A Yelp friend suggested that…read moreI try the Marsala dosa, which had potatoes and peas inside. Quite honestly, it was better than the onion dosa...more filling. The Marsala dosa was not as crisp on the outside with folded ends. The potato and peas mixture was fragrant and perfectly seasoned with spices. I savored every bite. This meal was so enjoyable to eat. My server was very attentive bringing me a menu to the table and offering me water to drink. She was very friendly and personable. Only one person came into the restaurant while I dined there. He was getting his food to do. Otherwise, it was extremely quite with virtually the entire restaurant to myself. I was having a early lunch. Overall, very chill environment.

As a table shareable items were the creamy Brussels sprout and the Kothey momo (dumplings), main dish I got the Tandoori Salmon and it was delicious. When they were walking out with the sizzling skillet I was thinking who ordered this?! And it was me. lol the Brussels sprouts had a great flavor and I enjoyed this as well as the momos. Overall I enjoyed the food and would recommend if you're in the area. The menu is quite extensive so be prepared to make some tuff choices. The restrooms were a bit odd as they seemed to be not fully built out, almost an after thought? Perhaps.

Definitely not a quiet or relaxing place, but the atmosphere is friendly and lively, filled with fragrant scents of spices. We order the butter chicken and the sagam spl mutton chops masala. The butter chicken didn't disappoint, just as good as last time. I asked for advice for a dish that was NOT rich or to spicy. The masala that I received was very spicy and there was so little meat, mostly bones in my bowl, perhaps 1-2 oz of mutton. We asked for some chai, with the milk on the side. We were served first coffee, which we had to ask to be exchanged, then the tea was good, but was served with the milk in, not on the side. Very, very small drink, tasty but definitely not worth the price. Perhaps our requests were lost in the loud environment or the translation, but they need to work on that. The flavors are good, strong and authentic, but be prepared to enjoy something you didn't expect. The plain naan was a bit for my taste.

They used to have a food truck at the Anderson Mill Food Truck Court, but they recently moved to a new location. If you're trying to find this place, I would suggest navigating to Balcones Bingo (13096 N US 183 Highway Svc Rd, Austin, TX 78750) and driving around to the back of the building, where you will see suite #104. Apple Maps took me to the wrong location, so I'd suggest using Google Maps.

We started with the Mosaru Vada, which was incredibly soft, and the blueberry yogurt was such an unexpected but delicious surprise. The Cauliflower Varuthathu had a nice spicy kick and was packed with flavor. For the main course, we had the Palak Paneer and Enne Badanekai with garlic naan and Malabar paratha, and everything was excellent. We were pleasantly surprised to learn that they make their paneer and spice blends in-house, and you can definitely taste the freshness. The real star of the meal, though, was dessert. The Thati Munjalu was hands down one of the best desserts I've had in a long time--every bite had us saying, "Wow, this is so good!" We also enjoyed the Attu Paaijigarthanda, which was a perfect way to end the meal. We also appreciated that they source fresh, organic vegetables and meat daily. While it's on the pricier side, the portion sizes are generous and the quality of the food easily justifies it. We'll definitely be back to explore more of the menu.

TL;DR: -Food was delicious, beautiful, served quickly…read more-Service was ok to awful. Very pushy, seems they are still 'soft launching' despite reviews going back to at least November 2025 -Only beer and wine If you can set aside abysmal service then I would say give this place a try, as the food was at least very, very good. My three friends and I came here for our 'monthly' dinner out. We made reservations but it didn't appear they were necessary. There is plenty of parking which is a major plus. The inside is beautiful and clean and the tables are BIG which is so nice for family style situations. The first waitress that assisted us was friendly and helpful. We inquired about cocktails and she stated they only served wine and beer. When we asked about the wine list, there wasn't one, and she wasn't able to tell us whites from red and had to go get her notes. While waiting for drinks, a second waitress arrived to take our food order. She seemed very insistent on recommending specific appetizers: mosaru vade, cauliflower varuthathu, and the goat sukka. Everyone in the group seemed fine with those options, so that's what we ordered. Our drinks arrived with a third person who identified herself as the bar manager. She stated cocktails would be 'coming soon' despite reviews from February saying the same thing, and asked if we had any suggestions. One friend suggested a cocktail with mint, I suggested a cocktail with pomegranate, as one of the appetizers had it as an ingredient. We were then told that nether of those suggestions were particularly helpful, as a lot of the ingredients she needed weren't available in India? It was an odd convo and its possible we misunderstood her. By the time ordering entrees came around, I'd started to hear other tables being told certain items on the menu provided were not available. When the same waitress that suggested appetizers came to take our entrees, she didn't even ask what we wanted and instead told us we should order the chicken tikka and the palak paneer. One friend tried to order kal dosa and was told they didn't have it, at which point the waitress again told us what things we should order and then stated 'this is our soft launch, so we don't have some things'. I'd planned on ordering Mangalore Squid for my entree but realized at this point that despite the size of the menu, it was clear that they were only cooking and serving specific items. Everything that we ordered was delicious, beautifully served, and came out hot and quick. I have zero complaints about the food. Once the bill came, the same pushy waitress put down a giant, laminated QR code and insisted we leave a review. We paid, she left, then looped back around, tapped on the QR code and said 'You leaving a review is the most important thing to us' then walked off again. She then came back a third time, said 'are you done with this??' and snatched the QR code so some other table could be pressured into a review I assume. As we were leaving, we merged with another group outside that was discussing their meal and commenting on things reflecting our experience. I told them I could tell them exactly what they ordered despite not being at their table, and then rattled off what we'd been told to order; it was item for item. So my main complaint here is print out a menu that reflects what you're serving. You can't 'soft launch' forever and its actually not fair to your wait staff to set up a menu that results in them having to tell people multiple times that something isn't available while also simultaneously pressuring the table into ordering what IS available. It really tainted the entire experience for me personally.

The food came out relatively quickly. The special chatpatti chaat and the dahi puri were tasty and on point. They were packed with flavor and had the right spice level.

However, for normal chaats, this was still a good spot that we discovered. I hope they take precaution and make fresh vada pav.
