Tamarind Savoring India

We are from Cleveland and were looking for a South Indian restaurant . And this place was a great pick . We had the buffet . The chicken biryani , ginger chicken and chicken curry was awesome . The delicacies like Malabar fish curry , shrimp gravy and crab masala was awesome . I am very very particular about fish curry . I won't jeopardize the love for it by trying it every where because i fear i may forget the love for it because of anh traumaticexperience . Then curry was visually appetizing . so i tried and it was awesome. . i could not try the vegetarian dishes because i was so full . apart from the rickety furniture the wholeexperience was awesome .

Wow. Where to start?We came with a larger group to celebrate our work. Many of my teammates recommended this place. Service was awesome and impeccable (I really don't use this word, to be honest). We were ordering a la carte, and some mistakes were made, but they addressed them with urgency. Perspective: We ordered many appetizers, and there was some confusion, but it was quickly addressed. The staff was quick, professional, and thorough.Food. What did we not eat? We had everything, and I am not an expert, but I took many pictures. Chicken Lollipops will slay any wings you can order. Boneless chicken (called something else) was phenomenal and spicy. Please note that I am not trying to Americanize everything but to give you an example of what it is like.We tried various dosas, some of which were like filled crepes and some like thicker pancakes. I had a goat-filled dosa and a chicken Marsala dosa that was like a pancake. You need to soak it in the sauces for enjoyment.Drinks: They have Indian beers, a full bar, and cocktails. You will see Thumbs Up, which is a rum and coke.Overall, we had an awesome time, and you should check it out. If you are confused or have questions, ask the staff. They will help you and ensure you are comfortable with what you ordered.

Upon arrival for dinner on a weekday we were seated immediately. Service was quick and attentive to our table of 6's needs. We had a family-style dinner with multiple dishes and everything came out hot and fresh. I was a huge fan of the different flavors and types of traditional Indian dishes. The atmosphere was lovely with decor and music. The prices were reasonable. The service was quick. For the meal we had ordered a 1 heat on a 1-10 scale and it was almost too hot to eat. I would recommend ordering 0 if you do not like spices. However, everything had great flavor and they weren't overtaken by spice. We had lamb, paneer tikala masala, and other ranges of dishes. Everything was authentic and tasty. My favorite dish was the Garlic Naan dipped in the Paneer tikala masala. If I am in the area again I would come back for food.

I am obsessed! First real indian food experience and sort of bummed no longer buffet I heard they used to have. I tried the chicken tikala and omg the flavor and how filling! Incredible having the sauce to dip the onion naan in! The price is perfectly reasonable for the taste and flavor. Service is great and welcoming, comfortable atmosphere. Only negative is not open til 5pm! Easy parking free for the full strip of stores. l can't wait to come back and feel like I missed out on life with no indian food before!

On my last visit here, there was new management, and it was no longer a Five Star experience. I felt the staff was a little rude to me, the food was not as good, and there was too much incense smoke ... no cheers.

This place has been a staple for us since we've lived in the Pittsburgh area. The Indian food is authentic and delicious. Tamarind was one of our favorite takeout places during the pandemic. This is a great location with plenty of parking. The restaurant is clean and the service is good.To the food, this is where Tamarind shines. On this night we went with some standards. Of course we got samosas. The Tandoori Chicken was juicy and very flavorful. It came out on a steaming plate. For the creamy dishes, we had the Butter Chicken and the Mutter Paneer (peas and cheese). Perfection! And don't skip the Garlic Naan, it puts garlic bread to shame.We are so glad that this kind of quality Indian food is in our neighborhood. Well worth it!

The food is authentic, varied and always delicious. Their weekly Sunday buffet is an outstanding meal that I look forward to every week. Their service is top notch and the dining room is clean.

Delicious food, great prices, friendly and efficient waitress - we will be returning again soon.

Ambiance is relaxed and the server was friendly. Food is fantastic it is not greasy at all. I think it is fresh and delicious and really great balance of spice and flavor. This is an Indian restaurant I would highly recommend we ordered several dishes and they were all great.

Living in Pittsburgh from the past 25 years and I can say this is the place to go for authentic Indian food in Pittsburgh area.
