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.

Meet a few friends and we tried various dishes. The restaurant was clean and quaint inside with several tables and booths. There was one person working the dining area and they got busy by the time we left. 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.

I started with the Nepali Chiya (chai) it was sweeter, nicely spiced and made in house! I highly recommend it for any chai lovers. For starters we ordered the creamy Brussel sprouts which had a nice tangy taste and were surprisingly great! I've never had creamy Brussels but it's now one of my favorites. We also went with the momo (Nepali Dumplings. We went with the Kothey momos which you can choose from veg or chicken ($9) and they come with 5 served with a dipping sauce. These were another hit! The sauce was served room temp and not spicy at all. Very well balanced. For my main I went with the lamb biriyani! And great selection! The rice could have been a bit more seasoned but overall 9/10. My friend got the salmon and it looked amazing! This place is really cute and spacious! Plenty of seating, quick and friendly service and lots of parking since it's in a shopping center!

I didn't really look at the reviews in detail, just the star rating bc we were in a hurry. I was a bit surprised to see this was counter service. Not disappointed, just not expecting it. You can order at the kiosk or the counter staff will help you. My fav Indian food place closed sometime last year & I was really bummed. This won't replace the ambiance of that place, but the food here was really good. I ordered the tikka masala fries & samosas for appetizers. Both were very good. The cheese naan was also yummy. The main entree was Paneer Tikka Masala. It did not disappoint. They were so generous with the paneer. No skimpy portions here. I was a bit shocked at the bill, but I tried many things & have enough leftovers to satisfy the price.

I asked for my order to be not spicy because I have a toddler to feed as well and unfortunately it was still moderately spicy, so my toddler wasnt able to eat the main dishes :/ The chicken tikka masala was okay, pretty tomato forward and felt a lil bland. The chicken was tender though. Same with the saag paneer. they did give me a good portion for both entrees but it was also not as flavorful as some others ive had. dont think I would come back. Would probably try a different spot next time. In the past I have had Northern Indian food that is creamier and the flavor profiles are pretty different. This spot isnt bad though. Samosas were average nothing crazy, the potato filling was bland and outer shell could have been crispier. They also did not give any chutney for the samosas which was a bit disappointing as well.

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.

There was one other patron in the restaurant, yet service was extremely slow and abysmal. We had to wait a full 20 minutes after asking for the check, and our server was distracted and uninterested the whole time. Food was also a let down. The mangalore chicken curry had a layer of oil floating on top. Dumping oil in the food just kills the flavor. Served with a tiny portion of rice, not nearly enough for two people to share. I won't be going back.

Before going, we browsed the online menu, and what immediately caught my attention was the focus on the west coast of India, especially Goa, Mangalore, and Kerala. It was refreshing to see something beyond the usual North Indian or standard South Indian fare that most restaurants tend to offer. We were tempted to order widely, but in the end we chose two starters and one entrée. The mushroom and paneer starters were both excellent, yet very different from each other. The paneer was smooth and rich, almost comforting in its finish, while the mushroom dish had a gentle tang that brightened every bite. The contrast worked beautifully. For the entrée, we chose the Bunt Kori Gassi, a Mangalorean chicken dish. The flavors were delicate and well balanced, with spices that enhanced rather than overwhelmed. We paired it with Malabar parottas and aappams, which were perfect for soaking up the gravy. Even the complimentary rice stood out. It was not the usual basmati, but a more local variety, a small detail that showed the thoughtfulness behind the meal. The sol kadhi, made with kokum, brought back memories of home. It had that familiar cooling tang that is hard to replicate. We finished with mango kulfi, which was subtle, not overly sweet, and a gentle way to end the meal. The chef came out to greet us personally, which made the experience even more meaningful. He explained that they use mostly organic ingredients and avoid artificial colors. We shared our appreciation for both the food and the service and left hoping they continue to maintain these standards. The menu is already being expanded, including a section for more traditional Indian restaurant offerings. We are looking forward to returning and exploring more of what they have to offer.
