First time to Thai Tamarind in Bellevue and I was in love with the unique charm and atmosphere! It is a cozy environment with very friendly and welcoming staff. The Thai curry dumplings were a great flavorful start to our meal. The service was fast and we received our food in a timely fashion. I had the Thai noodle soup and I had 2-3 meals from one bowl! Even leftovers were just as great as when I first got it! The curry was flavorful and it was a sweet touch to have rice presented in a heart shape! I cannot wait to dine in and their new location soon!

Thai Tamarind Bellevue is truly a hidden gem when it comes to Thai cuisine. Located in the downtown strip of Bellevue, the décor is tasteful and calming, setting the perfect tone for a great dining experience. The food here is outstanding. Their basil beef is hands down the best I’ve had—packed with flavor, perfectly balanced spices, and incredibly tender beef. If you're a fan of Thai noodle soups, look no further. Tamarind serves the best noodle soups around, with rich, aromatic broths and fresh, high-quality ingredients that make every bite memorable. What really sets Tamarind apart, though, is the people. The owners are genuinely kind and passionate about what they do, and it shows in both the food and the service. The staff is attentive and friendly, always making sure guests are well taken care of without being intrusive. They also have other items on the menu including Curry, stir fry noodles and many small plate appetizers which I will try next time. It's nice that the menu offers something for everyone. Whether you're dining in or taking out, Tamarind Bellevue delivers top-notch Thai food with heart. Highly recommended!

New location same excellent food and service. We always order the same garlic and black pepper tofu and pad broccoli with tofu. The sticky mango rice is also a 10/10.

Service was great and is a beautiful dining room. I loved the Thai chicken wings. My mom said the crab Rangoons were the best she’s ever had (and she gets them everywhere!) I liked the spicy basil rice, I’ve had better elsewhere, but it was still very solid! The Thai iced coffee was way too sweet for my liking so I didn’t finish it.

Everything here is perfect. The food, the vibe, the service. I had the Pad Thai and it was delicious. I can't wait to go back.

The newly relocated Thai Tamarind - 2 doors from the hardware store now - is better than ever. Quality is fantastic and the new location is roomy, well laid out, clean and attractive. Great HVAC and everything. I always loved the character of the original spot, but the new digs are better yet. If you loved it before, as I did, the food hasn’t changed at all - it’s still wonderful - just the atmosphere is a bit more spacious, comfortable, and attractive. A move well executed!
