The Tamarind restaurant is an Indian restaurant in Mayfair, London, opened in 1995. The restaurant was founded by businessmen Vipin Khanna and his youngest son, Aditya Khanna. It won a Michelin star in 2001, the first Indian restaurant to do so. The Michelin star was won under then chef, Atul Kochhar. Jonathan Gold, in the Los Angeles Times, wrote that he had been impressed by its "frank attempt to produce Indian food with the sheen and polish of white-tablecloth European cuisine", though he chiefly recalled "the wine list, the flowers, and the cost." The Michelin Guide described the food and menu as "extensive à la carte of generous dishes perfect for sharing, with a selection of small plates like Rajasthani churi chaat to start, and a good selection of curries and biryanis for the main course." In 2023, Tamarind was featured in an article published by Tatler on "The most outstanding Indian restaurants in London".
