Tamarind Springs

We came here as part of the urban escape package staycation with Villa Samadhi. All I knew about this place was they served Thai food. We loved the ambience here. It was romantically set. Ideal for couples. Nice experience dining in the forest. Sounds of insects in the forest at night. Nice view, air, and lighting. Service was superb. We had the 4 course meal which came with starter, main course and dessert. Each dish was unique. I loved the starter, to the tomyum soup, main course and dessert. Each dish was generous in portion and ingredients. It is a class above other Thai restaurants. We would definitely return again to celebrate future occasions here.

The location is really great, I loved the lighting on the walkway to the sitting area. There was a wide variety of food available on our chosen menu. They all looked and tasted fresh and well spiced. The service was sometimes slow but we had a large party to serve. All in all a great place to meet and relax with good food.

I visited for their lunch à la carte menu, and the food was delicious and above average. The ingredients were fresh, and all dishes were prepared upon order. They don’t serve any precooked meals, allowing you to adjust the flavors to suit your taste buds. Be cautious with their spicy dishes, as they can be quite fiery—make sure to request less spice if needed. Side note: Do prepare yourself a mosquito repellent if you are easily attracted to mosquito.

FOOD great, SERVICE poor, BUILDING wonderful and let down by poor TOILET hygiene. BUILDING: Pleasant architecture and it's Balinese rather than Thai. Candle lit entrance path and lovely wood interior. FOOD: Everything was fabulous taste especially the appetisers. MEN'S TOILETS: absolutely shameful condition of the urinals which have broken surfaces and an overwhelming stench of urine. You wouldn't expect a public toilet to be this bad. The once quaint concrete urinals need proper maintenance or replacing with modern porcelain urgently. SERVICE: Great first few minutes then we found ourselves searching and trying to engage staff who were more busy rearranging furniture and chatting to each other. The appetisers and main dishes all came at the same time; really NOT good etiquette. CLEARING TABLE: A waiter wanted to take my plate whilst my partner was still eating and the waiter found it strange I disagreed with him when I asked him to wait. In general dining etiquette, it is considered most proper for all plates to be cleared at the same time, AFTER everyone at the table has finished eating. This shows respect for the shared experience and avoids rushing anyone. RESERVATION: We asked about needing a reservation on a Sunday evening and were told it can be busy; as it turns out the place was 80% empty the whole time. OUR THOUGHTS: It would be wonderful to eat here in heavy rain because the atmosphere of the building and its location feeling as if in the middle of the jungle trees would be sensational.

Food was okay, nothing too much to mention. We ordered quite a lot from the menu and we found the taste is less flavourful but acceptable to general standard. Portion is actually quite big, so for one dish, u can share with 2-3 people. Service was where Im honestly kinda dissatisfied. We were a group of young people so we might not giving off the classy vibe as per the others. However, one of the server treated us totally different from the others. He was putting his hand on my chair to take the order and he sounds so “not happy” to explain whats the dish is. But the most disappointed thing is we came for a suprise birthday occassion, but idk if the server is not the sharpest tool in the shed or he was genuinely didnt care about our situation, as he came STRAIGHT to us and ASKED the table, whos BIRTHDAY was it. Like do he even know what “suprise” means.

Came here a few years ago and they had weekend brunch as well but the menu had much less dishes to choose from so the price was lower. This time we brought a friend over for weekend brunch, the menu had much more options and the price was also much higher. The food was tasty but the service was not quite satisfactory. We ordered some dishes we liked several times as they were very small portions but they just sent us other dishes that we did not order, but as they were yummy, we just ate. The speed of serving was not fast enough, either, which made us feel that they were delaying to slow down our eating speed. Otherwise, this is a nice place to dine.

The food is quite good, definitely above average. But the main issue is the lack of staff. I went on a Tuesday afternoon, and it was quite hard to get hold of a service crew because there were only three people working. One was handling the tea bar and cocktail bar, one was at the cashier, and the last one had to manage all the customers. I honestly feel that having one or two more staff would make the service much smoother. The environment, though, is really top-notch—super chill and peaceful. It’s perfect for someone like me who enjoys getting away from the hustle and bustle. It’s a great place to have meaningful conversations and spend quality time with someone special.

Such a cute restaurant, great for date night or a special occasion. You could pay a bit extra for them to decorate the table with rose petals. Tamarind has amazing peanut and chili sauces, and I think that alone brings the dishes from 4 to 5 star levels. They serve Indonesian fusion and the best dishes were the appetizers platter and the grilled sea bass. One of the apps was this ground meat cucumber bite and it has changed my perception of cucumber.. have never really liked it til now.

The place is delightful and so pleasing to the eyes. I would say it's off the beaten track. The staff is most helpful and helped us create a fixed menu for our group of around 30 people. The highlights were the Tamarind platter, the Laotian Mango Salad and the amazing Tom Yum soup. The main courses that stood out were deep fried sea bass with three spicy sauces, stir fried beef with lemongrass and Chicken Curry with wild bananas. And their mango with sticky rice was just the icing on the cake

One of my favorite restaurant in KL. Love how they came out with a such great ideas like this. Bringing a restaurant into some jungle experience is something fantastic. I'm absolutely loving everything they got here. Both of the foods and drinks were great.The services were fast and ease without any troubles and the environment are absolute magnificent. You should get yourself down here and try it by yourself. Truly 5 stars from me.

I had high expectations for Tamarind Springs, having checked out their website and heard about their several awards. Naturally, I chose to dine here for a special occasion with my girlfriend. The journey here only raised those expectations, as we cruised through the lush greenery of Taman Tun Abdul Razak and breathed the crisp, misty evening air on the way to the restaurant. The entryway is small and only distinguished by its bright red paint, so if you don't have an electronic navigation program guiding you, watch out for that, as well as the signs directing you to the carpark next to it. The parking lot is quite small, which is not a big problem as they have attendants to guide you into the available spots, but I didn't like the way the loose rocks on the ground turned my car into a mini roller coaster ride on the way in. It made the mood tangibly less romantic. The entryway is a great spot to take photos, so don't miss it! Past the entryway is a gorgeous long walk paved by small bricks and lit on either side by candlelight. A romantic experience and more excellent photo ops. Full marks for ambiance! I had made a reservation, so we were promptly shown to our table on arriving at the dining area. We were seated in the smoking area as the non-smoking area was fully booked, and I have to commend the staff for taking pains to seat us at the edge so we were not affected. Everything so far was sweet but unfortunately, this is where things take a sour turn, as we were soon set upon by a pushy waiter who tried to convince us to order the most expensive items on the menu. The food is all Asian-inspired, with origins like Laos, Vietnam and Thailand. We ordered a sour chicken soup which was excellent, and a papaya salad with dried beef which, sadly, was not. Overall, it is to the credit of the design team behind Tamarind Springs that the ambiance of the place makes up for its mediocre food and worse service. I may give it a second chance, but not anytime soon.

Tamarind Springs is very well known by Ampang folks especially those that frequently walk at Taman Tar as the restaurant entrance is a long the walking path. The only time I ate here was on October 25th 2012 on my anniversary. Tamarind Springs serves indo-chinese food and is most famous for its amazing ambiance. It really was amazing though and was a memorable night. The food however was less than impressive. We ordered only 3 dishes and they were all basic and simple dishes simply because everything else was just way out of our budget. Our chicken was raw in the middle and the refused to reimburse us for it, instead they gave us a fruit platter (we were less than impressed). It is definitely very expensive and very exclusive. I would go back though just for the ambiance of the place. The minute you enter, you walk down stones steps lit by dim candlelight. I mean sitting in this gorgeous open concept restaurant in the middle of the jungle surrounded by the sound of nature, its definitely something different compared to all these other "romantic" restaurants. One sight you'd definitely see here are couples ogling at each other which sets the mood even more and gives you a warm and fuzzy feeling inside, like the whole place is just so full of love! Cheesy I know.

There is really nice ambience n romantic place. Who wonder celebrate with ur wife or girlfriend. This place is suitable . Beside , food is main for Thai style but I think the taste is normally n the price is quite expensive a bit . Service good as well .

The ambience at tamarind springs is truly a romantic one. It's really relaxing, makes you feel like you've hopped into an island with a restaurant. The ambience is really nice. The food can be a little overpriced for what you're being served but the food presentation is really nice. It's usually full cause they are packed with reservations especially during weekends. Parking isn't too tricky, they have a parking but it may be quite a walk. The service is good as well, the waiters and waitresses were all really polite and well mannered. The place in general just makes you feel very comfortable while you enjoy a nice meal.

This place is absolutely romantic. Its very quiet and is secludedly located in Taman Tar amidst plush greenery surroundings. The cuisine is indo-chine and their menu is very mouthwatering. However i think that they are a tad overpriced and the portions could be improved. So be sure to have a bug budget when you're dining here. The mango salad was very good, they had the perfect mix of sourness and spice and the juicy crunch from the mango was out of this world. Also i enjoyed their steamed sea bass and it was a good size fish! Their signature lemon grass drink was also very good and refreshing but again i am not happy with their servings. They were served in short glasses and was gone in just a few gulps!
