lovely – great good..going back tonite. cant wait!
Nice but the price – Given I'm from South East Asia, I'm a bit critical of the restaurant. I thought the ambience was nice. Food is good but not great. It's probably a nice place for business trip, if you go there for food, I will go to some other South East Asian restaurants that offer that offer the same thing for a fraction of the price. Will go there on business only.
Editorial Review by Angela Asche – Dark and sultry Palo Alto restaurant fuses an art-gallery ambience with innovative Vietnamese cuisine.
Good food, Shady business practice – Had a prepaid group function at the restaurant for work, which tends to mean that opened but unconsumed wine gets taken home by guests or hosts, as they have been paid for. When the party was over, 1 server claimed that the restaurant had a policy of not giving the wine out?! Another server claimed that there were no partially consumed bottles left. I had just seen one that was about half full, and there were no other guests around, so I knew that to be false. Having had multiple such eve... read more
Poor customer service; poor management response; ill prepared staff – I have been going to Tamarine and Bongsu (both owned by the same people) entertaining clients. At a client lunch today, we experienced something that you never believe would happen to you. One of my guests, choked on a piece of meat and would have died, had it not been for a wonderful gentleman diner who was also having lunch. The hostess who looks miserable and treats every guests dreadfully just looked at us as if we had inconvenienced her yet again. The... read more
NYE – What I liked: The ambience, the mushroom soup (vegetarian), tamarine prawns-succulent, sea bass-cooked to perfection, creme brulee, excellent service What I disliked: Lava cake-tasted like right out of the microwave. Comments: Received excellent wine recommendation from the bartender. Fixed price menu (3 course-$60/head)-worth the money. For NYE, should have included complimentary glass of champagne.
fantastic Vietnamese fusion cuisine – Our lunch did not start off on the best note. We did not have reservations and the hostess, who we all agreed was snooty, treated us like she was doing us a favour by sitting us at the "one remaining table in the back room." As it turned out, there were three other open tables in this very same room and they remained open throughout our entire lunch. What a joke! Anyway, the food at Tamarine is the real star! This was one of the finest meals we had on our 18 day trip through California. ... read more
Treat yourself – Very unique food. Great flavors you can't taste elsewhere. Gotta try it.
can't wait to come back here again – I have eaten at this restaurant three times. Everytime I come back, it has always tasted better than the last time. I am looking forward to the next time I get a chance to go there again.
