" I was invited to a friend’s birthday party at Tamarine, and it truly was a remarkable experience. We had a beautifully set table, and the service was commendable—super attentive without being intrusive. The highlight for me was the lemongrass seabass; it was seasoned beautifully and cooked to perfection. The only minor gripe was that the portions felt slightly small for such a price point. Nevertheless, the food’s authenticity and quality definitely makes up for it. I would gladly return to try more dishes! " (*Curated Review*)

" Last night I tried Tamarine for the first time with some friends, and it absolutely exceeded our expectations! The ambiance was a perfect mix of elegant yet relaxed, and we were promptly greeted by the staff. We started our meal with the spring rolls, which were crispy and filled with fresh ingredients. For the main course, I had the shaking beef, which was perfectly seasoned and tender. The flavors brought me back to my travels in Vietnam. To conclude the meal, we shared the banana beignets, which were heavenly! Can't wait to return! " (*Curated Review*)

" I absolutely loved my visit to Tamarine! The service was impeccable and the food presented beautifully. The garlic noodles were especially memorable, as well as the desserts which were divine! My only complaint would be regarding the prices—they could be more reasonable for the portion sizes offered. However, I will definitely be back for more! " (*Curated Review*)

" The best dining experience I've had lately! Our server was so attentive and made great recommendations. We shared several plates, including the tamarind shrimp and garlic noodles, which were outstanding! The dessert was a perfect ending. I appreciated the thoughtful ambiance that made our dinner special. Will definitely come back soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" Fantastic experience! I celebrated my anniversary here and it was simply perfect. The attention to detail in each dish was evident. I ordered the clay pot cod, and it was seasoned beautifully. The desserts were pleasantly surprising; make sure to try them! I must mention the atmosphere, which made the evening even more enjoyable. Really served as a backdrop to our special day.

" Had a fantastic birthday dinner at Tamarine! The ambience is lovely and sets the stage for a great evening. We started with the spring rolls which were fresh, and then moved to the shaking beef which was absolutely divine. I definitely indulged more than I usually do, but every bite was worth it! Service was attentive, and I left feeling satisfied and happy. Can't recommend this place enough for special occasions! " (*Curated Review*)

" I stopped by for lunch with my colleagues and was impressed by the selection. Overall, a delightful mix of old favorites and innovative new dishes. The hot and sour soup was a great start, but I felt the dishes were somewhat on the pricier side for lunch fare. Service was prompt and polite, setting a very positive tone for our meal.
