Tamarind Restaurant

Overview

Tamarind: Cairns’ Most Awarded Fine Dining Destination
Located in the heart of the city within the Reef Hotel Casino, Tamarind is the pinnacle of culinary excellence in Tropical North Queensland. As the region’s most consistent recipient of the prestigious AGFG Chef Hat, Tamarind offers a sophisticated "Australian Freestyle" menu that masterfully blends classic European techniques with bold Asian flavors and the freshest local reef and rainforest produce.
The atmosphere is one of "moody elegance"—think low-lit timber interiors, crisp white linens, and a sense of quiet luxury that feels worlds away from the buzzing casino floor. Whether you are indulging in their iconic Signature Duck Curry or exploring the multi-course Taste of Tamarind degustation, every plate tells a story of the region’s biodiversity. For the discerning traveler, a night at Tamarind is an essential Cairns bucket list experience.
