Tamarind at the food court in Brookfield is so slow. The line here is usually long, but the line also moves at a snail's pace. I had a craving for Indian food and was willing to wait a bit. When I arrived at the counter, I ordered the butter chicken with naan. If you order with rice, you generally get more. The container for curry when you order with naan is much smaller and only partially... more
I am obsessed with their paneer! I've gone three times already this week, and there's always a different paneer of the day. The food is delicious, the naan is fresh and the prices are very affordable. The butter chicken is also quite tasty. Staff are also very friendly and helpful in navigating you through the menu.
One of my new favorite lunch places in the path. The butter chicken here is very good and they have a daily paneer special. For an extra dollar (depending on what you order) you get a big side of chickpeas or kidney beans, which is a great deal. Their nan is fresh and goes great with the curry.
I checked this place out today. Got one of their mini meals with Dhaal. Gosh - the dhaal was super salty. A definite "avoid at all cost" place for me!
This is the best butter chicken I've ever had. It's slightly sweet, not too thin, and the portion of meat is glorious. The price and portion for around $9 plus free salad is amazing. This is better than the restaurants hands down.
I have been to other indian food outlets in Toronto and would rate Tamarind as the best. The food is very delicious and the staff is welcoming and friendly. I eat here quite often and the best thing I like about them is their willingness to get customer feedback and continiouly adding new varieties of Indian food to their menu..I would highly recommend it to people who have better sense of real... more
Delicious butter chicken! It is really soft and not too spicy. The nice gentleman let us eat some samples which made choosing the chicken easy. Careful about the chickpeas! They are a little spicy!
The rice is soft and a little sweet. Good stuff! A nice dinner to eat up before going home from Union station.
As a proud Indian, how dare the owners call the food they serve 'Indian'. I understand that they're trying to adhere to western tastes and cook the food on the milder side. But that doesn't mean the food needs to be absolutely bland and tasteless. Care to put some salt and pepper maybe? Tried the chickpea, and chicken curries. It was just bland and the chicken was extremely dry. The Naan -... more
Well I've never eaten a full meal here, but it's on my way home, so I grab some evening snacks every now and then, and they're quite authentic. They have some good Indian street food specials every month, which I've liked to far - wada pao etc. Samosas are quite decent for $1.
I went to Tamarind hoping to eat some good Indian food. The place is in the food court and seemed to be one of the less busier spots when i went. I ordered a vegetarian biryani, a veggie side (aloo jalfrezi) and a samosa. After taxes, it costed me $11.94. That was the WORST Indian food I have eaten in quite sometime. Save yourself the effort, even if you're craving Indian food and go to some of... more
Generous portions at an affordable price...the rice is fresh and fluffy although their coconut fish was surprisingly made with salmon which was odd to me (not to mention lacking in coconut flavour). The paneer, however, is delicious with just the right amount of kick.
Love this place, I go after work quite frequently. Food is always good, the staff are friendly and every time I go let me know of any specials or deals they have on. When I ask for take away they always offer to wrap everything up in cellophane to insure nothing leaks on my walk home.
The portions are also generous and I always have enough left over for lunch the next day.
I should note I am...

The food here is good, but, here is a pet peeve:
Why would an Indian restaurant serve iceberg lettuce salad with Italian dressing as a side? Yes, I know it is cheep, but c'mon, the taste palette is completely different. I hate it when chinese/korean/indian take-out does this, and they do it often.
The Indian food here is pretty good though.
I *love* Tamarind! I am a vegan and Tamarind has a vegan and a vegetarian meal option every day. After 3pm they have a $5 mini-meal which comes with rice and a salad. The portion is pretty big and I get this all the time to take home for dinner!
The food is delicious and the menu changes daily. I had breakfast there one morning which was also delicious! If you are in the BCE Place food court I...

Its a food court joint, but its good. I totally agree the portions are generous and their naan bread is yumm.
I ordered their chicken tikka and found it a little dry, but the naan and lassi total made up for it. Lassi is an extra $2, and so are the vegetables.
Today I am bestowing upon Tamarind a highly sought-after and equally prestigious honor of The Best Place to Eat in BCE Place.
The portions are generous, the food is flavorful and the menu changes daily, although there are some items that are always there, like lentil curry. The naan is made fresh and always hot when they give it to you.
Extra bonus: the have Dr Pepper (look for my highly...
