THAMARAI Restaurant Heilbronn in Heilbronn

Nice little cozy place with delicious food

Very tasty food, very good service

The food was excellent, a small, fine menu, the service was very attentive and very nice. The restaurant is very cozy, unless you look into the bulb behind the bar. (Walk through!)

Great food, lovely service , we loved it. Our favourite dinner place in south Germany

This was my second time at Thamarai and I can highly recommend it. The food is very tasty, well prepared and the service is first class. A must for Sri Lankan fans!

Very tasty food and great service

Delicious food & very nice staff. Gladly again 😊

Mega tasty, very friendly staff, great value for money! Very happy again

Yes, it was great. Very satisfied.

Cozy restaurant, very tasty food, friendly service. Good value for money

Delicious food, nice service. Definitely recommend!

We came on a recommendation and were definitely not the last time here. Once we tried the menu at Thamarai, we were full and happy. A dance of spices in the mouth. The pure taste explosion for the senses ❤️

It doesn't actually happen that often, but I actually can't quite understand the many particularly good reviews here. The food was good but a bit bland, the service was very friendly but also overwhelmed with a few tables, the atmosphere was pleasant but not necessarily authentic. Unfortunately, the waiting time of almost an hour was a major drawback. Maybe it was an unfavorable day for us and the opinion is ultimately just subjective. But overall it was rather worse than expected. Too bad.

I couldn't resist and ate everything. For this reason I couldn't add a photo. 🤣 I was in Sri Lanka and ate very spicy but delicious food there. The food here is not that spicy. Nevertheless, I had a lot of fun. Clean and very tasty food. If you don't come, you'll lose a lot.

Delicious food and good for sharing, gladly again.

Very nice evening with delicious food. Gladly again!

Very tasty food. Chicken and shrimp highly recommended. Mango lassi is great. Chai tea also recommended. Basmati rice very tasty, nice long grains with black sesame! A great little restaurant, very nice service. We felt very comfortable. Very clean and modern toilets. Even with a terrace in summer. Gladly again!

Authentic menu and ambience. Highly recommended!

Yesterday I was at the THAMARAI Restaurant in Heilbronn for the first time – and I was absolutely thrilled! The food was just fantastic. The spices, the flavors – everything tasted so authentic and fresh. The Ceylon Chicken Curry in particular was a highlight, super spicy and just the right amount of spiciness. The vegetarian dishes are also really tasty and made with a lot of love. The atmosphere is totally cozy, you immediately feel at home. The furnishings are stylish and there are lots of beautiful details that make the whole thing really special. The service was extremely friendly and attentive. You can immediately tell that the work here is done with heart. The waitress took the time to explain everything and the recommendations were great! I can really only recommend THAMARAI - regardless of whether you already know Sri Lankan cuisine or want to try it for the first time. I'll definitely be back! 😊

We treated ourselves to a wonderful evening there. The food is incredibly tasty, be careful with the spiciness. We were definitely satisfied and full. We recommend them.

We come to Thamarai for dinner at least 3 times a month because it tastes so delicious. We recommend this restaurant 100%. Very friendly service and comfortable to sit in. The outside terrace in summer is also very nice. An absolute insider tip in Heilbronn ❤️

The restaurant is beautiful and cozy! We enjoyed our evening there several times. The food is very tasty and always fresh!

Very tasty food. Very friendly and accommodating. It is advisable to book a table. You can park opposite for free. Highly recommended.

A perfect evening for two. Surrounded by a pleasant atmosphere and inviting music, we thoroughly enjoyed the food. The service was friendly and accommodating. The food was authentic and very tasty.

The service is super friendly and very attentive. The food is very tasty and the meat is super tender. It's very nice and cozy.

The service was very attentive and courteous. The food came very quickly and was simply delicious. I will always come back here.

We were at Thamarai for the first time today and were very satisfied. The service is magical and very friendly, the food is incredibly delicious. Vegetarian and vegan dishes are also offered. The dishes we ordered were pleasantly spicy, exactly as requested. We would love to come back 😊

Just had a very tasty dinner at Thamarai. Great service!

It was our first time here and we were pleasantly surprised. The dishes were fresh and delicious. We'd love to come back again.

Very tasty, authentic food at fair prices.

Wir waren nach einigem Suchen der Gaststätte erstmal enttäuscht. Der Aussenbereich sowie der Eingang der Gaststätte glichen einer Baustelle .Das Innere Ambiente war nostalgisch. Die Bedienung war sehr freundlich und aufmerksam.Das Essen war lecker, die Portionen hätten aber gerne etwas größer sein können. Insgesamt befriedigend

A small menu offering excellent cuisine with the perfect choice of spices. The portions are generous and the prices reasonable. The two starters are delicious and the Ceylon chicken curry is excellent. A little more attentive service would have been nice (the waitress was in the kitchen throughout the meal and never came back to see if we needed anything). She was very nice, though.

Very tasty dishes and super nice service 😊

A wonderful experience! I would like to report just as much, if not better, about our visit to this unique restaurant. ♥️🙏🏽✨ I have to admit that when I was offered the chance to go, I was very curious. However, I went there with absolutely no expectations. It was such a wonderful evening that I look back on so fondly! We called shortly beforehand and got a table for two. When we arrived there, we were greeted with a smile and a very warm welcome. Even this is not something that can be taken for granted these days and unfortunately in many restaurants you tend to be “handled over”. But not at Thamarai! :) The menu is very manageable, which is a good sign for me personally. There is still a lot to choose from and there is also something for vegetarians/vegans (and it is also marked on the menu, as is the level of spiciness of the dishes). We ordered the drinks and food and first examined everything around us. How do you say so beautifully? Arrive first, right? 😃 The restaurant is very stylishly decorated, the music plays very pleasantly in the background, so you can still have a pleasant conversation. Each table is lit separately, creating a very pleasant, non-intrusive atmosphere. You can see the street directly from the window, but it is so insulated that you can't even hear it from inside. After ordering, both the drinks and the food didn't take long to arrive. The service was second to none and every single question was addressed. The food (we had the chicken spring rolls, lamb and eggplant, of course with garlic bread:) and the mango dessert) was great in terms of taste! One of the things we noticed was that the cutlery was very high quality. Another plus point! What we also noticed was the attentiveness of the service staff. We ordered dishes with a side of rice and of course our dishes came with a bowl of wonderfully fragrant rice. But when we ran out of rice and were still eating, new rice was brought to us before we even asked for it ourselves. We found this to be very attentive and appreciative. I could go on forever...it was just a wonderful experience and I'm really looking forward to going again soon! Many thanks to the whole Thamarai team ♥️ you made the evening unforgettable. See you very soon!

Nice new restaurant in Heilbronn and something completely different thanks to Sri Lankan cuisine. Service was very friendly and the food tasted excellent.

Very tasty food. Good portions!

Very tasty dishes with finely balanced spices. Also very positive: warmed plates and everything is freshly prepared. Also very good value for money. A clear recommendation! 😄

Nice little Indian restaurant. The food was very tasty and the service was super nice. Clear recommendation :)

We love Thamarai - eat here often and always enjoy coming back! Great, authentic restaurant with very tasty food!!!!

An absolute highlight! The Sri Lankan cuisine at this restaurant is authentic, fresh and full of flavor. The spice mixtures in particular are a delight for the senses. The staff is friendly and attentive, the atmosphere is cozy and inviting. If you love exotic flavors, this is the right place for you! I can highly recommend this restaurant and will definitely come back. 5/5 stars!

I visited this restaurant for the first time and it was an unforgettable evening. The atmosphere is very welcoming and the decor exudes an authentic Sri Lankan vibe. The service is excellent - the staff are friendly, helpful and always smiling. The most important thing is of course the food! The flavors are incredible and the dishes are prepared with the utmost care and freshness. I can particularly recommend the lamb curry and mango lassy!

Wir waren schon öfters da, immer wieder gerne, sehr zu Empfehlen:) Traditionelle Sri Lanka Küche, angenehmer Service

The food tasted good. Unfortunately we had to wait 75 minutes because there were a lot of orders ready to be picked up.

Tamil restaurants are truly a rarity and EVERYTHING is just right here. The food is great, the service is pleasant and friendly and the atmosphere is very inviting. I'll definitely be back and hope that this restaurant stays around for a long time - definitely a highlight in Heilbronn!

I recently visited the restaurant. Food quality was good. The taste of the food was also good. We really enjoyed the food. Great restaurant.

Very nice little restaurant. It's something different that you don't have that often. But it is very spicy. So for someone who can't tolerate spicy food, it's rather difficult. Unfortunately you can't change the sharpness. Very tasty in terms of taste.

I recently visited the restaurant. We ordered paneer butter masala and nan. Really food was very good. Taste was also upto the mark. Good service.

Nice and cozy. Very good food. Great service, fast and friendly. Good prices.

Super tasty authentic food, very nice service, good parking situation. Gladly again.

Super delicious food & friendly service

Very nice restaurant! The food is very tasty, authentic! Everyone can find something for themselves!

I recently visited Thamarai and was very pleased by the authentic Tamil cuisine and the warm, friendly service. I particularly enjoyed the chicken Rolls, which were perfectly crispy on the outside and packed with flavorful filling. The Kottu Rotti was another highlight, bursting with spices and a great balance of textures. If you're looking for authentic Tamil food served with a personal touch, Thamarai is definitely the place to go.

I recently visited the THAMARAI Restaurant in Heilbronn, and I was thoroughly impressed with both the food and service. The flavors were authentic and incredibly delicious, with standout dishes like the Lamm Kothu Rotti, Ceylon Chicken Curry, and Jaffna Prawns Curry. Each dish was packed with spices and cooked to perfection, offering a rich and satisfying experience. The staff was attentive, ensuring a pleasant dining experience. If you're in Heilbronn and craving some top-notch Indian food, this place is a must-visit!

Authentic Tamil and Sri Lankan cuisines offered at Thamarai Restaurant in Heilbronn-very vegetarian - and vegan-friendly. The menu provided had varieties; moreover, the spice level can be adjusted according to your taste. Ambience is nice, staff very friendly, and the service was very attentive. If one must wait, it surely shall be worth waiting for. Parking is also available and convenient. Thamarai is one of the places for those desiring a taste of true South Indian and Sri Lankan cuisines.

Absolutely love Thamarai! The food here is fantastic, and the service is exceptional. I tried the Lamm Kothu Roti and Briyani, and both dishes were amazing. The Kothu Roti, in particular, blew my mind—definitely something that makes me curious to explore more of Sri Lankan cuisine. The Briyani was perfectly spiced and flavorful. The staff is friendly, knowledgeable, and always willing to share insights about the dishes, which adds a lot to the dining experience. Highly recommend this place if you're looking for authentic flavours and a welcoming atmosphere.

Fantastic food, tastes like you're on vacation. Very nice service, family-like!

We've been to Thamarai several times and the food has always been fantastic. The Lassi is a dream and the service and ambience leave nothing to be desired. Keep it up! Thank you for existing!

Great food. Nice restaurant with a small but fine menu. Nice staff :). We'd love to come back!

5 Sterne. Leckeres Essen, kleine aber feine Karte. Personal auch super nett und freundlich. Wir kommen gerne wieder :)

Ceylon Chicken Curry with Coconut Appam is a must try dish.

Very tasty and great staff. There is a star deduction for the longer waiting time. Definitely happy again

Very tasty food and friendly service. Portions are a little smaller in size, but there is always new rice for free.

The food took a while, but it was very tasty.

Very tasty food. Unfortunately the waiting time was extremely long. There weren't very many guests there, but we were there with a large group. Good vegetarian and vegan selection.

We ordered three different dishes and each one was great!Traditional cuisine, attentive and friendly service and absolutely recommended!

The restaurant is located in a quiet area and offers a pleasant atmosphere. The dishes are not only beautiful but also spotlessly clean. The staff is great, smiles often and strives to serve guests quickly. The food is incredibly delicious. It was my first time trying Sri Lankan cuisine and it made it straight into my top 5. We ordered two different chicken dishes, which incidentally were halal. The dessert was also excellent. Thank you for the wonderful experience. I recommend this restaurant to everyone!

It couldn't be more authentic. Here the mother cooks personally 🥰. The butter chicken was good to “put in”. The mango and avocado salad is very refreshing for the season. Highly recommended ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻.

An absolute highlight in Heilbronn. There are only a few restaurants that I can unconditionally recommend and THAMARAI is one of them!

Very tasty authentic food. Highly recommend.

Amazing food, very good service! Best Indian food in Heilbronn. Highly recommend!! 🙏🏻

Food okay, very small portions and long waiting times. I ordered the “Butter Chicken” dish and it consists solely of chicken, 2 slices of pepper and the curry sauce, without any other vegetables. The waiting time was 45 minutes, unfortunately too long for the crowd! Service was okay, location too.

Highly recommended! Creative, young cuisine. Lots of vegetarian and vegan, but also meat and seafood. Due to renovations it looks very inconspicuous from the outside, but that doesn't detract from the food. We will be back!

very authentic, great terrace and nice service

Delicious and varied! Gladly again !

Very tasty cuisine, especially the Kothu Roti. Service and friendliness top!

A nice little menu that is completely sufficient. I found the food very authentic and tasty. The service was very nice and attentive. The waiting times OK. The only thing I missed on the menu was a normal salty lassi. I would come back.

I haven't eaten so well in a long time

The food is delicious! Lived in Malaysia for a long time and here in the Thamarai it is like authentically cooked there! Great praise 👍

Super delicious food. Spicy is great even for people who don't eat very spicy food. Everything is given in small pepperonis. :) Mango Lassi extremely helpful!

Service very polite. Food was very good but a bit too spicy for my taste.

Super delicious food with authentic Sri Lankan cuisine. Family business and you can taste the spices and the lovingly prepared food from your mother. We also regularly order for pickup and in the summer we look forward to the summer menu and the changing special weeks. Please note that all dishes have a certain level of spiciness, but you can choose the level of spiciness individually. Definitely an insider tip in Heilbronn.

Really? Sorry, but what was that? I ordered to be picked up and everything worked out. At home I unpacked and, among other things, ordered garlic naan twice, but at the THAMARAI restaurant in Heilbronn that means tortilla with garlic water twice. And one piece only costs 4 euros! This is a rip off. Never again in my life. I don't know why this restaurant has 4.7 stars.

Always very tasty food. Small but nice card with nothing missing.

Best Indian Restaurant in Heilbronn. Tasty food and good service. Must try - Lamb kothu rotti, Ceylon Chicken curry and Jaffna Prawns curry.

Fantastic food! Great service. Can recommend it without reservations.

It is advisable to make a reservation as the restaurant is busy. Service very good, friendly staff. Dishes taste great with the exotic spices. The sharpness can be chosen. Portions are sufficient. The price-performance ratio is right. Unfortunately there are a little longer waiting times for the food to arrive. But it wasn't a problem for us. There are parking spaces in front of the house or opposite.

Small restaurant simple yet beautifully designed. Service was great and we were able to make a reservation at short notice on Saturday evening. My meal was a dream for me. 🙏🙏🙏😊

Costly and quantity is very less but mutton items are very good

Nice little restaurant in Sontheim. We felt very comfortable and the food tasted very good!

Very tasty dishes. Everything freshly prepared.

Thamarai is a wonderful restaurant. The furniture was chosen with a lot of love, the space and the employees exude a great sense of calm. You enjoy sitting there. But even better than the atmosphere is the food. The boss cooks personally. The menu is manageable, but every single dish is made with love, good products and spices. Compared to a run-of-the-mill Indian restaurant, Thamarai is simply cozier, more personal and the food is much more tasty. We'll treat ourselves to another evening at Thamarai soon.

Very tasty food. If you don't eat an appetizer, the portions are too small. Unfortunately we had to wait a little longer. But there were only 3 tables occupied. Definitely would have made more drinks sales. But we'll be back.

We reached today at 19:30 for eating food and the waitress dispite of having open tables denied to serve food saying that the kitchen will close soon.... If kitchen is closing at 8 please change your opening hours... It says you are open till 10 pm but service not available at 7:30 PM.... Horrible!!!

We had a really great birthday dinner with >20 people at THAMARAI. Very tasty, authentic and nice service. Thank you again and gladly again.

Great food. Always happy to come back It's better to reserve in advance on the weekend

Very tasty food, unfortunately the service is very bad. The selection of drinks, especially the wine selection in a wine region, is also not special.

Clear menu and top selection, especially for lactose and gluten-free wishes! And of course it was super tasty ☺️🙏🏼

Very tasty Indian food. The staff is also very friendly. Gladly again.

We got a place straight away. The drinks also came quickly. But then we had to wait forever for our food because the restaurant is quite small and not all the tables were occupied. It was very loud while waiting. When the food came, it wasn't worth the wait. The rice was not enough for 2 people (was served in 1 bowl) and bland. The rest of the food was good, but nothing special. There wasn't much choice of dishes either - just two sides including starters and desserts (2 each to choose from). I was hoping for more.

toller Abend, tolles authentisches Essen. Wir kommen definitiv wieder
