We have been using theTamarind for over 12yrs have never been disappointed in any of their meals. Always friendly staff and management. Always top quality meals. We travel pass at least 3 Indian take aways, traveling a distance for a Tamarind take away, we have that much confidence in them to sell us a take away we will enjoy. In all the years we have been buying their meals they have never let us down, we have enjoyed every meal. Williams.

We've had takeaways from here a couple of times before and they've been pretty good. As vegetarians it's difficult to get much variety but Tamarind have an excellent selection so tonight we tried a whole different menu- Wow! Absolutely knock out ( particularly the Goa green curry). Highly recommend, the best Indian takeaway we've had in this area in more than 30 years of trying. Well done you Tamarind people, we'll be back for more soon.

£27 spent and what a waste! Really disappointed, Chips were grey/black like a gone off potato was used and rock hard. Jalfrezi was very oily on top and very little chicken. I have been coming here for years and after tonight I will not be returning. Photos don’t really show how bad they were!!

Hubby and I had a lovely meal on our recent visit to Tamarind. I had my usual Special Biriani which was lush. It could do with a bit more sauce though. My husband had his usual Lamb Sagwala with Paella rice. I couldn’t fault the food at all. While we were there there was a large group of about 12 diners - mixed company with half a dozen children. The children had made a mess on the floor - Chips, rice etc. My problem was that the mess wasn’t cleaned up before the next diners came in. Staff cleared the tablecloths and put out napkins and cutlery, but why on earth didn’t they brush up the mess from under the table. It’s because I was looking at the carpet that I noticed how absolutely filthy it is. If I was the owner I’d remove the carpet and have laminated flooring put down which is much easier to keep clean.

Had a takeaway tonight. Knew it was going to be good as soon as we got it in the car, the smell was amazing. Good sized portions, excellent value, but mostly (as a vegetarian) a really wide selection. Such a nice change, we've had some horrid stuff locally. Very enjoyable meal and I'm looking forward to eating my way through the rest of the extensive vegetarian menu. Well done you Tamarind people, we'll be back soon.

Hadn't been for over a year. We were really surprised when we called in on a Friday evening. The menu had changed and staff. My partner reckons the best biryani he had for a long time. I enjoyed one of the specials. Even the dry house white has improved. We felt they deserve a thumbs up in trio advisor. Looking at some of the reviews people agree too. Have to say we normally venture to Sa1 when we have an anchoring for a curry but Tamarind is nearly up there with Rasoi. Well done, we will be returning as we're pretty local!

Met a friend here tonight and the food was outstanding. Easily the best meal I have ever had. We had Chicken Gurkali, Bhindi Masala, Tarka Dal, Lemon Rice, Cucumber Raitha and a Garlic Nan. The entire meal was perfect, the attention to detail was impressive. The nan was one of the best ever. The barmaid was delightfully cheeky! Gwych! If you want great food look no further. The staff are friendly and welcoming even when they are flat out busy as they were tonight. A true jewel in Pontardawe’s crown! Dhoondabad! Diolch yn fawr iawn! (Apologies, no photos.

Muy normalito, nada especial. La comida tenía sabor auténtico, pero podría haber sido mejor condimentadas. Mi pal pidieron un plato que contenga atchar riata,, jengibre, cebollas y así sucesivamente. El jengibre y cebolla ella colocado en la cima de dos 'dobladas 'poppadums. Antes no tenía que terminaba, tarter que estos condimentos llevaron lejos. Así, 2,80 libras dividida por 6 artículos, quiere decir que el restaurante podría haber cobrado 46 p por tema elegido, siendo 96 pence. Sin embargo, eligieron no sólo para hacer una saludable £1.880 de beneficios, pero también de reutilizar estos artículos para el siguiente cliente. Esto puede verse claramente por las condiciones de los recipientes utilizados. No es una situación muy higiénico.Los camareros (no hay camareras) actitud rodeado por misogynistic. Te sirven cuando son buenas y listo, tan lejos; mucha de la comida no estaba caliente cuando se sirve.

Service was fine, but as curry houses go not one of the best. Only eaten there once so maybe I was unlucky. Starter of surprise mushrooms was ok, nothing special but quite acceptable. However the main, cant remember exactly what it was called but it was billed as one of the house specialities with "succulent lamb" and apricots. The lamb was just huge pieces of what must have been precooked gone cold lamb which was then tossed in some spices and reheated and ended up really tough and dense. The curry part was ok, but the lamb was dreadful.

Not being from the are (we are just up the M4 in Bridgend) we were in the area and did not fancy Sunday dinner. We decided on an Indian buffet ( if they did them here was our thinking) .We came across Tamarind in the high street. It was stylishly devoured ,modern and clean. The service was attentive and friendly with popadams brought straight to table . The food was a triumph tasty and the choice was far better than any other buffet my recall being a choice of 15 dishes with rice chips and Nan's in abundance. We arrived to enjoy a quick stop and eat and ending staying to stuff ourselves on the fine food and atmosphere ......and the bill for 4 adults and 2 children £40 ???? Think this is going to be our regular treat , cannot recommend enough !!!!!!

The Tamarind (the address given above should really give the location as Pontardawe which is 8 miles from Swansea) was recommended to us. They were happy to do the catering for us at our home for a party of about 20, leaving all sorts of curries, Indian dishes, food heaters, serving utensils and the usual incidentals, spice trays, naans etc., and the standard was very high with enough quantity for double the number of guests. Since then we occasionally visit their restaurant for the Sunday lunch self-serve which again is excellent food at a more than reasonable cost, and call in from time to time with friends in the evening and the staff always remember our names, and are most helpful.

We have been customers of The Tamarind in Pontardawe for many years and the food is probably the best Indian cuisine around! Iqbal and his Staff are simply amazing with always a warm welcome and smiley faces. The whole atmosphere is relaxed and you feel part of the Family. The quality of the food is of a high standard and the menu has a wide varied choice of dishes.

We have a takeaway from Tamarind nearly every weekend!!! The food is to die for! We've tried nearly all the Indian restaurants in Pontardawe, clydach, Skewen and Swansea and can honestly say it is by far the best! The service is great when we've eaten in and always have a great night! The restaurant is child friendly too! Keep up the good work and we'll see you next weekend!

Been on a Sunday two weeks running now. Great buffet, great selection and the food was hot and constantly refreshed. The waiters were attentive and polite. Great value and they will be seeing me often. I haven't tried it in the night but I intend to quite soon.

Having visited Pontadarwe Arts Centre for a concert in indulged in a curry across the road. There was an extensive menu, which included a selection of vegetarian dishes.

Just got back from a lovely Sunday buffet at the Tamarind. Great choice of dishes, friendly staff and spotlessly clean (Cleanliness rating of 5) Well recommended !!

Excellent night out. Worth a visit. Restaurant had a very nice atmosphere. Service was prompt but not intrusive. Staff were good with children. Food was excellent. Hot towels after food was a nice touch. Will be back again soon.

Went here with my parents last night for a meal as it was my bday and wanted to eat out locally. Was very quiet inside but this might have been due to the fact it was bonfire night and there was a few displays going on. Had a lovely meal, the food was delicious and I had the chicken makhani which was very tasty. Service was also excellent, nothing was too much trouble. Would eat here again!
