Excellent food, staff and environment..... hands down!!!! We happened upon this place and were not dissapointed. Sometimes trying new places (especially when there are a great number of them in the area) is a risk but not in this hidden gem. We were rewarded tonight when we find this awesome place with delectable, savory and divine food.
Went for breakfast and was blown away! The service was very casual and authentic. We were helped through the menu, heard his story, and genuinely enjoyed our experience! Will definitely be eating here again, and would recommend it in a heartbeat. Fantastic food that will leave your mouth watering for days!
South Indian Cuisine done right! Tastes like running next door to grandma's house to see what she was making. I always order weird stuff and they accommodate without judgement. Great if you're a vegetarian!
Has become our Christmas tradition; Ski at whitewater and Supper with Tamil. 💚
The Parotta was some of the best I’ve ever had before! I got an Indian take out staple just to base review on with Butter Chicken and also some Channa Masala, one of my favorite vegetarian curries. Both were excellent. The butter chicken was super soft and all flavors were perfect. The samosa was almost in an egg roll wrapper. It was still delicious, don’t get me wrong, but I wasn’t expecting that type of shell I guess? I would order here again!
Great food, great service. Definitely best option for Indian food we found in Nelson. We ordered something with a number of different curries and they were all good and a dosa and it was too. Definitely worth checking out.
Had a wonderful takeaway lunch from Tamil. It was our first time ordering there and we weren't certain what to choose - they made us a number of dishes to try and all were fantastic, every last one of them! Our favourites were the lamb curry (just WOW), a paneer dish, and the Parotta bread was such a nice change from chapati - beautiful and flaky. The Channa was also great. We'll definitely be coming back again for a dinner in house. Thanks so much for the lovely lunch! : )
The food was delicious. We got marinated cauliflower, lamb and chicken Dosai and mango lassi. All yummy and tasty. The only thing that I think would be great to work on it, it’s the decoration and ambient which can add more pleasant to your experience. 🤩
The BEST meal! We both had the Thali (one meat, one veg) which was (between us) a selection of 6 different curries, all chosen by the kitchen, with a choice of homemade bread..plus rice, pappadum, pickle, yoghurt and dessert. We added a super thick and delicious mango lassi and the other half had a local IPA. If you are in Nelson and want to eat great, authentic and delicious food in a friendly, welcome atmosphere .....just come here....and if not in Nelson...plan a visit ! Definitely worth the trip :)
ordered the lamb curry and rice with the chicken samosas and it was absolutely delicious - no delivery fee and i was able to order completely online! the portions are pretty good for the price and the food is amazing - one of the only places in town as far as i know that delivers indian takeout, its a bit of a wait but it tells you that upfront and they were right on time, plus the food was still warm so no complaints there! definitely planning on ordering again soon.
edit: they gave me enough food for a whole second meal so the portions are very good for their prices! super happy with my order :)
