I am not typically wild about Asian food - I like Thai and Japanese hibachi - but I love the Tamarind. They will make food mild or spicy or medium. The wasabi steak is excellent, the shrimp tempura is my all time favorite for an appetizer - but I could make a meal out of just their appetizers. I find the Pinnacle isn't as good as it used to be. They changed the dressing on their Cesar salad which was excellent but now, not so much. I hope you can convince her to try it! It really is excellent!
