This place feels like you are in the middle of a rain forest. The decor is in keeping with the setting and the food is a mix of Malaysian, Vietnamese and Cambodian. Everything we had was excellent and very authentic. The service was friendly and very attentive. One tip though is that whilst the Vietnamese beef salad starter is lovely... More

Location and Ambiance is nice, thats it. Food way below what you expect for the price, there are so many better food locations in KL. Do watch out for pushy waiters confusing explanations of dishes to trick you into buying more, seafood was not fresh, curry was a runny soup, and the only beer on tap is Carlsberg. Nice to... More

It took us 20 min by taxi from the hotel. The restaurant is situated in a reserve in an upscale residential part... More

Tamarind springs has a resort style setting.We went there for our wedding anniversary. From the walkway to the interior decor, everything was authentic and beautiful!! We tried their signature tamarind dishes.Each dish had a unique taste.Staff were friendly and quite helpful. They actually waited for us to arrive and the kitchen was closed 20 minutes later because we arrived late.... More

I'm actually quite surprise of this high rating. The location and ambiance are excellent however if food was far below the expectation. We went the once in a group of 8 people of different ages and different nationality. We ordered many different dishes to share and.....we haven't found any of them worth to come back! Everybody agreed that the best... More

We went to this particular restaurant to celebrate birthdays. We arrived at the restaurant seeing lots of people jogging and monkeys scampering around. The entrance is charming, a long path lined with candles and lush shrubbery, with water features and statues. The central path is brick which is quite slippery due to the moisture. The surroundings were lovely and so... More

Hard to find but worth the search. Great performance on all counts in an excellent setting. High quality Thai cuisine that outstrips it sister restaurant in the middle of town. Great for a tranquil romantic meal in the hub of the big city.

Tamarind Springs is a restaurant that I would recommend without a doubt in KL. The setting, food & service are excellent. I have dined here 3 times over the past 13 years (as I no longer travel to KL for work), & I have never been disappointed. Tamarind Springs & Tamarind Hill are not the places to visit if you... More

Tamarind Spring is indeed a place that will carve great memories for the guest. I've been there 3 times, and I have to admit the services are good. Starting from the service crew, who delivers wonderful and tip-top services to the guests. I went there with a friend of mine, and we were served like royalties. The manager was really... More
