    I had an amazing experience at Tamarind Indian Cuisine. The vegetarian options on the menu are incredibly diverse and complete, with so many delicious choices to choose from. The host and Subhodip were exceptionally sweet, welcoming, and attentive. The food was absolutely phenomenal—fresh, flavorful, and some of the best Indian cuisine I’ve had. As an added bonus, they kindly welcomed our small dog inside, which made our dining experience even more special. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone trying Indian food for the first time or to anyone who appreciates high-quality, delicious Indian cuisine served in a warm, clean, and inviting environment. We will definitely be back.

    Favorite Indian food in Winter Park! Such a little gem.

  • June 22, 2026

    I had the Awadhi korma, with garlic naan bread, and the mango lassi. The Awadhi korma was delicious and the chicken very flavorful and juicy, had it with the rice and the nanbread for the sauce. Everything was excellent. The mango lassi is like Gogurt very refreshing. Rasmali was very sweet and creamy.
