Recent Reviews
Thai Tamarind was a delightful catering experience for my partner's graduation. Chala was organized, easy to communicate with ahead of time and the day of, and she was very patient with my family when we ourselves were not where we said we'd be and when we said we would be (sorry, Chala!). So professional and somehow she kept the food hot even with my family's mishaps (GREAT packaging, no leaks too) and came with serving utensils, dishware/utensils for individuals/napkins...

The best Thai on the entire Peninsula
The owner is a fabulous person to boot.
Everything I have had is great - if you like eggplant try the prawn & eggplant - it will not disappoint!

The Pad Thai here is so delicious, the best I’ve had in a long while from this area. Excellent presentation, good size portions (enough to share with someone) and the sweet chili sauce is really tasty too.
