The Tamarind

Food was good however it was so hot in the restaurant that it was impossible to enjoy. Disappointing for the price you pay.

Have eaten here twice now and both times the food and service were outstanding. The different flavours and textures combine beautifully to make the best 3 courses I've experienced. Will certainly be back for a third visit.

Excellent restaurant, couldn’t fault the food or service. Well worth the $$$ Will definitely return soon! Quiet country lane in treed bush setting.

Booking The Tamarind was a last-minute decision when we arrived in Maleny for the weekend to celebrate our wedding anniversary. It did not disappoint. The staff were welcoming, knowledgeable about the menu and friendly. And the food was outstanding! It made for a very special evening indeed.

This was part of a birthday week and was the icing on the cake. The food was superb and beautifully presented. The staff were fantastic and all were relaxed but attentive with a sense of humour. The atmosphere was cosy and welcoming. We will be back.

Fantastic food and service. There was not one thing we would complain about. We will definitely be returning. Every staff member that served us did with a smile, a laugh and made us feel comfortable.

The food was excellent and great value for money. The service was superb and the location was wonderful. We would recomend spicers to all of our friends.

We had excellent service at the Tamarind, but the restaurant didn't have the Hinterland feel we were expecting. The food was good, but a bit overpriced. Worth a try, though, if you are looking for something different!

The food was truly 10/10 ! Great location with friendly staff. Very cosy and intimate dining experience. The food took too long to arrive however

This would be the best restaurant we have been to, the staff were just so friendly and attentive and the food was a symphony of perfect flavours and textures. Because it is in a rural setting parking wasn’t a problem.

Superb, thoughtful modern Asian fusion in an intimate space. Highly recommend!

Outstanding food and excellent service - we really enjoyed our meal and felt that $85 per person for the menu (3 courses) represented good value. Would highly recommend if you are in the area and can get a table.

The staff were brilliant, very helpful and the food was excellent. We’d definitely go there again if we are in the area. I’d love to stay at the retreat sometime, it looked lovely.

We thoroughly enjoyed the food here. Coming from South East Asian backgrounds, we could recognise immediately how the flavours were so authentic yet had a slightly modern twist to it. Especially loved the whole crispy fried fish with 3 flavour sauce. Dessert was amazing too. All in all was a splendid dining experience.

Love this restaurant. Been here a few times for birthdays, graduations and various other celebrations. The food is always so delicious! The service is prompt, efficient and friendly. Lovely atmosphere, very clean and warm which was great on a cool night. Will be back again!

The food was excellent, they catered really well for our kids however, we did find it quite expensive. However, we enjoyed it after a big day bush walking in Maleny.

Very attentive and knowledgeable staff. Fabulous food and adjusted for specific dietary needs. We will be back in daylight to enjoy the scenery

Outstanding location and the best Thai food I’ve ever had on the Sunshine Coast. Suckling pig and mussaman curry were brilliant and the deep fried cauliflower was a surprise packet too. Setting and views are simply perfect!

The restaurant is in a beautiful setting and there was delicious food, live music, attentive but not intrusive service. What else could you want?

The settings were lovely the food was good but I expected more based on the previous reviews and the price of the meals. Good service nice presentation.
