Tamarind - Ithaca

The restaurant Tamarind is still not promoting dine-in service, but when we arrived and inquired, they accommodated us. Despite being short-staffed, we opted to dine in and were served our food in to-go containers.

I was a big fan of this restaurant 10-15 years ago when I lived nearby. I visited again today and it has declined significantly since then. The Thai spicy...

The food at this restaurant is delicious and the server is friendly. The Thai spicy noodle dish is especially delicious, and level 3 is not very spicy. We also ordered papaya salad, green curry, and coconut soup, which were all tasty.

Pad see ew tasted alright but was a bit greasier than I expected. The khanom tuay were fine but probably the frozen kind. The chicken satay was bland and soggy. They had the texture of something steamed.

Spicy Basil was good. Crispy vegetables tasty and well cooked but not warm enough. The soup was disappointing. Very watery broth and not enough else. Tom Yum soup that Ive had is usually much richer in flavor and content.
