My favourite spot in London has to be this only because of its music and vibe. Every time I come here, I enjoy more!

My friends and I went out for a well-earned girls night out. The food was great, the atmosphere was second to none and the music was fab. We danced what felt like all night, the DJ kept the tempo going and the waitress kept the drinks coming. There aren't many places that you can stay all night and feel completely entertained - cocktails, dinner, dancing and live music. Amazing night that will be hard to top.

I would love to say this place was amazing..but that would be a lie. Not bad food wise but the management let this establishment down. The cocktails were a tad overpriced (and I'm not afraid to pay for a good drink). I was surprised by the venue as it's like going through a maze which then opens up into a medium sized floor. My friend had pre-booked a table for 10 people for 9:30pm. We arrived in good time and was told that our table was being prepared "4 minutes"..after 20 minutes, it got tiresome. Longest 4 minutes ever. We were eventually seated in a corner with low seating and lower tables which made a pregnant member of our group uncomfortable.
We were handed the pink menu (£15 per head with an apparent discretionary 12.5% charge on top). As there wasn't much to choose from, we asked to see the full menu. We were unimpressed with the choices and so reverted back to the pink menu. Our waitress was the only redeeming factor to our visit here. She was patient and above all made us feel looked after. Our starters arrived in good time and were tasty. 10 minutes (or so later), our mains arrived with a bit of a mix up which was promptly rectified and finally dessert. Whilst we were still eating, a promotions team were there and made me feel rushed to eat my food (risking indigestion..not good at any time, worse after spicy food). Constantly looking over at the table we were seated at. We were then approached by a security guard who asked if we were finished..the answer being no. He then told us that they needed the space. As paying customers, we weren't expecting to feel rushed. We were then approached 5 minutes later and asked the same thing. As we had refused to pay the "discretionary" 12.5% charge, we refused but wanted to leave a tip for the waitress. My friend was asked "are you going to pay it or not" by a rude manager. My friend replied "no" at which point we were asked to leave..the bouncers then proceeded to strong arm us out...

One good thing was the food although my local Thai restaurant is just as good in that respect. Our party of 8 arrived on time and were told to wait at the bar and no one approached us until after half an hour when we were finally seated. Every time I asked if they knew how long it was going to be I got told it would be ready in a minute and brushed off. Having checked the website and seen bad reviews I saw that they have a discretionary 12.5% charge and on the main dinner menu. When our waitress came over she gave us the set menu which surprised me as on their website this says it is not available at the time we were there. Before we got the bill I asked the waitress to not not add any charges and we would sort her out a cash tip as she had been great. She said we had to pay so I spoke with the manager. He basically said "are you going to pay it or not" and I said no but I wanted to give the tip to the waitress who deserved it. We were then approached by the bouncers after paying the bill to leave. My friend asked them why they were doing this and they couldn't even tell us! So it's obvious because we didn't pay the charge. If the mgr even tries to say they offer another menu as a response please note only when I asked to see it as I had seen the website so knew this. Otherwise we would have just had the set menus and been none the wiser, no alternative was offered. Rude managers, left waiting, would have got more money out of us but chose to eject us over 12.5 % which I would have happily given to the waitress which we did. I highly recommend Thai silk in Greenwich lovely service, good food, better value for money and exactly the same restaurant club format. Avoid this place. And this review is accurate!

This is really a "no star" rating restaurant -unfortunately I cannot remove the last star. My husband and I went to Tamarai because we had a special offer with bookatable it was £30 (which we paid in advance)a person for 3 courses. After reading the restaurant website reviews it seemed this was a very good deal. Once arriving at the restaurant the staff were unsure which menu to give us so this is the one they offered us:first couse 'spring roll'main course 'thai Chicken Curry'dessert 'sorbet'we were shocked as we thought we should have at least 3 different choices on a restricted menu. So we queried this. In vain they said this was the menu. Bitterly dissapointed we left the restaurant as we knew we could do better else where although we had already paid for the dinner. Tamarai missed a trick here as we were about to order a bottle of champagne plus some cocktails. So they would have had additional money from us on that night. I was also surprised as the restaurant was fairly empty. With this in mind I would advise anyone not to go for any offers via another website as there appears to be communication problem between them and the restaurant. As for going there normally it would not appeal to me. It is very dark you cannot read the menu. And the staff are unhelpful. Best give it a miss unless you are very drunk before going so you miss those finer details! From a very disappointed diner.

Tamarai

It always amazes me the quality of drinks these guys make under such pressure, with such an extensive menu. My group of friends and I go quite a lot and we always have a good night - there is always a great atmosphere, the bar team clearly having a good time! They seem pretty reasonable given the quality and in comparison to other less enjoyable, pretentious venues I've been to! The music is always faboulous and the food is damn good.Looking forward to enjoying some more summer evenings enjoying a cocktail or two!

Tamarai has something great to offer every weekend, i came to know about it through facebook when a friend suggested me to like its page, interesting offers for their pan asian meals and the best part are the club nights. Me and my frnds went to the music healing night on Friday n that turned out to be a night to remember with great musicians and awesum mixing by the dj's. We partied till the end of the night and had great fun.Looking forward to the upcoming club nights!

Pan-asian for me certainly means Tamarai, the place has everything- Indian, Chinese, Thai. You name it you got it! Simply loved the food, the aromatic hot thai coconut soup is amazing! Chicken spring rolls and Indian rice cake are good too, I am a big fan of their cocktail list. A little expensive for my liking but nonetheless if one can afford good taste, then why not! I am coming back with family the next time, not to miss place!
