The Scene – Owners Charlie and Nan Niyomkul have the magic restaurant touch--relocating their beloved Tamarind from 14th Street to Colony Square without a glitch. Since opening day, the intimate dining room--dressed in rich browns and accented with spice jars-has been packed with business lunchers, theatergoers and longtime fans following the scent of lemon grass, coriandar and chilies. A breezy patio offers additional space for dining and people-watching. – – The Food – The setting may have changed, but the food is as fresh-tasting and as precise as ever. Crunchy…

I own a communications company just outside the perimeter - I must say take your wife, lunch date or biz partner here - or client - the heats as described on the menu are spot on. Brilliant!
- Pros: The food was amazing, excellent service, wow!!
- Cons: NONE!

I agree with Creative Loafing: best thai food!

My boyfriend and I dined here yesterday, and we had the pleasure of being served by Santi. We shared the chicken satay, and while it was incredibly tender and delicious, we thought the four small sticks of chicken were kind of pricey at $7. I had the somtum-green papaya salad, and it was one of the best dishes I have ever eaten. My boyfriend had the gang-panang chicken, which was also wonderful, but we thought the portion was somewhat small for the price. Also, it did not come with rice, and a small bowl of it costs $3.
- Pros: service, flavors
- Cons: small portions on some items

Don't go it's not worth it

My husband & I went for lunch on Tuesday. I was hoping they would have lunch specials, but they didn't. We had Gang-Khew-Whan & Pad-Bai-Ho-Ra-Par. The Gang-Khew was really bad (it had a weird flavor). The Pad was ok but still not great enough to visit again..Go to Surin they have awesome thai food. We were going to go there but last minute opted for Tamarind..oh how I wish I went to Surin instead...
- Pros: Decor, Service
- Cons: Food & Food
The Details on Tamarind Seed Thai Bistro
Parking:
Tamarind Seed validates parking in the Colony Square parking garage for 1 1/2 hours. You can self-park in the garage or use the valet, located in front of Shout restaurant on Peachtree Street.
What to Drink:
The restaurant's wine list ranges from the affordable Monkey Bay Sauvignon Blanc ($8 a glass, $30 a bottle) to the pricey BV Georges La Tour Cabernet Napa for $165. It also has several beers--including Singha--cold sakes and fruity specialty cocktails.
Know Before You Go:
If you plan on dining during peak dinner hours or the lunch rush, make a reservation to ensure you'll have a table. The restaurant does offer takeout, but if it's too busy, the staff may tell you they can't do it for you.
The Extras:
For a healthier option, opt for the brown rice. That way you can splurge on the lychee nut creme brulee for dessert.
Look Good:
Ask your server about the whole fried snapper with basil sauce. It's not on the menu, but if it's available, the kitchen will prepare it for you.
