★★★★★ 5.0 Elizabeth Nguyen · Feb 2026

Tamarind Restaurant is one of our favorite restaurants in the Norfolk area for authentic Indian cuisine. The dishes are always fresh and flavorful, and we especially recommend bhel and chili paneer. The restaurant features a simple, clean interior, and the service is attentive and welcoming. Catering is available for those interested.

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Nafisa Tabassum · Aug 2025

Pav bhaji was good but the meat thali was a disaster. Blend and no flavor at all. Maybe it was old, when chicken starts to lose its taste. Came with bunch of other stuff that was average. Glad I didn't order anything else

Excellent Very polite, patient, friendly accommodating service. Excellent customer service! TAMARIND is a cozy Super-Clean restaurant. Lovely interior decor . Seating outside too under umbrellas. The food is amazing. Menu on wall displays vegetarian & meat dishes from different parts of India! Wow the dishes are so tasteful!

★★★★★ 5.0 Maria Pangalos · Oct 2024

Wow - excellent vegan Indian food! Super sweet service, wonderful menu and clearly marked vegan options, perfect portion sizes, and outdoor seating that's warmed by the sun in the afternoon (making the lunch even more special)! Highly recommend.

★☆☆☆☆ 1.0 A B · Jan 2026

Food is horrible, everything tasted stale. Worst rice I have had my whole life. Veg Curry had a lot of oil and yet tasted so bland and mushy. Naan/ Roti smelled and tasted like pre-made tortillas that you get at walmart, just heated up and with ghee/butter. Would not recommend. First time I actually felt angry at the food i was served. A lot of firsts for me and none of it good. Try other indian spots around the area.
