Food is Mediterranean-accented and with plenty of flavor (olive oil is generously used there). On the menu you do not find standard fare, some will miss their usual piece of meat. But this should not hinder you, the compositions are well put together and tasty. The vegetables are a must, the desserts too. The price level is moderate, be prepared to give out near to $70 for a starter, half a vegetable dish, an entree and a dessert.

Do not miss the delectable desserts, they are certainly worth a try. You receive good value for your money there, for three courses allow a bit more than $60, the tasting menu costs $75, and the chef\u2019s tasting menu is $145.

The Korean chef is a master of his craft who knows how to combine flavors. Some dishes really open up new worlds of tastes! The restaurant\u2019s ambiance is calm, almost serene. The tables are spaced rather closely together, a corner place would be the preferred choice. While eating there means culinary indulgence, be prepared to dig quite deep into your pockets. There is a choice menu where it is not quite clear how many courses should be ordered for the average eater. Here the service team is happy to give advice. There is also a tasting menu for $180.<\/span><\/span><br \/>\n<span lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-US;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'arial' , 'helvetica' , sans-serif;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<table style=\"margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" align=\"center\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\"><a style=\"margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;\" href=\"https:\/\/4.bp.blogspot.com\/-XcsTE4i4pcA\/WHdberii25I\/AAAAAAAAB6I\/lZqwKyW2uqAgOPmAk6TPjiQsQLDDQjb2wCLcB\/s1600\/1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/4.bp.blogspot.com\/-XcsTE4i4pcA\/WHdberii25I\/AAAAAAAAB6I\/lZqwKyW2uqAgOPmAk6TPjiQsQLDDQjb2wCLcB\/s400\/1.jpg\" width=\"400\" height=\"255\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'arial' , 'helvetica' , sans-serif;\">Food sample image, foto provided by restaurant<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p><span lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-US;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'arial' , 'helvetica' , sans-serif;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h5><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Tamarind_Michelin_guide_TripAdvisor_133\"><\/span><span lang=\"EN-US\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.tamarindrestaurantsnyc.com\/tribeca\/home.html\"><strong>Tamarind<\/strong><\/a><\/span><strong><span lang=\"EN-US\"> (Michelin guide, TripAdvisor #133)<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h5>\n<div>\n<p><span lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-US;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'arial' , 'helvetica' , sans-serif;\">This trendy restaurant offers high-end Indian food in a gigantic space with ceiling-high windows. It is a buzzing place, the ambiance is all but cozy or intimate. Once settled on a somewhat quieter table, you can relax a bit before browsing through the extensive menu. The cuisine is authentic Indian, not fusion cooking as you may expect in such a modern eatery. Dishes are perfectly prepared with top quality ingredients, plentiful and tasty. Service is okay, but shows some flaws. The price range is as follows: appetizers from $9 to $16, entrees from $21 to $39, rice from $6 to $9, bread from $5 to $8. <\/span><\/span><br \/>\n<span lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-US;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'arial' , 'helvetica' , sans-serif;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<table style=\"margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" align=\"center\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\"><a style=\"margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;\" href=\"https:\/\/2.bp.blogspot.com\/-xl7Niao7PmA\/WHdgn5XR75I\/AAAAAAAAB6c\/52B-GPXvD2w-4cSGX8pyWJOwh2Oy2-60wCLcB\/s1600\/Bild%2B12.01.17%2Bum%2B11.54.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/2.bp.blogspot.com\/-xl7Niao7PmA\/WHdgn5XR75I\/AAAAAAAAB6c\/52B-GPXvD2w-4cSGX8pyWJOwh2Oy2-60wCLcB\/s400\/Bild%2B12.01.17%2Bum%2B11.54.jpg\" width=\"400\" height=\"266\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'arial' , 'helvetica' , sans-serif;\">Food Sample image, foto provided by restaurant<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p><span lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-US;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'arial' , 'helvetica' , sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'arial' , 'helvetica' , sans-serif;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/span><\/span><span lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-US;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'arial' , 'helvetica' , sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'arial' , 'helvetica' , sans-serif;\">Most restaurants in New York City can be booked through <\/span><a style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.opentable.com\/new-york-city-restaurants\">OpenTable<\/a><span style=\"font-family: 'arial' , 'helvetica' , sans-serif;\">, an online real-time reservation service.
