Tamarind Tree, Seattle, Washington, Vietnamese Restaurant Details

Food:

This place is fantastic. Great atmosphere inside even though it's in a strip mall.

I had the Tamarind spring roll and the beef salad. Very fresh ingredients, and the salad was perfect with thin slices of tender well cooked beef and a mountain of cabbage and basil. The fish sauce dressing was perfect with some chili paste mixed into it. Free tea along with the meal as well.

I will definitely be coming back.

Food:

I came here with my Vietnamese friend from out of town. As a group we ordered five dishes, all of which were excellent. In addition, all dishes earned my friend's seal of approval, although she mentioned that one dish, a soup, was not tangy enough and might have been slightly American-ized.

Food:

Great Pho spot tucked in the back of a weird strip mall. Word is clearly out that this is a good spot to eat! Be prepared to wait even with a reservation. Food is worth the wait though! Looking forward to going back and trying the giant rice cracker thing!

Food:

Really wasn't expecting the interior of the restaurant to be as nice as it is. Huge menu of many vietnamese favorites. Try the fresh crunchy spring rolls

Food:

I've been here many times and I have never left dissatisfied. The food here is both authentic and legit - fresh & consistent. I personally think it's one of Seattle's best kept secret. However, it is pricy so be prepared to empty those pockets because the typical dishe runs from $4-$12. My recommendation is to order the spring rolls which has the crunchy rice inside that makes it so good.
Their Bun Rieu is so good and is made of fresh crab, simmered in a tomato soup that is so pleasing to your mouth. Be aware, parking here is very difficult and the weekends get crazy so learn to fight for a spot. However, once you get in, relax and prepared to be pampered.
