Happy and relieved that Tamarind is still around, but now in a different location (Tribeca). The ambience looks really nice and fancy, probably a touch better than their previous location. Food is outstanding as usual - vindaloo was tasty with just the right amount of spice; veggie dish was not too oily; desserts had just enough sweetness. Our servers were friendly and attentive. I think this place is perfect for that power meeting dinners or a nice romantic get-together with your partner. Definitely will repeat, for sure! :-)
