THE NEW YORK TIMES, SUNDAY JANUARY 21, 2007
***      VERY GOOD
…‘ Coromandel is a pretty, contemporary place with white tablecloths, a reasonably priced wine list and a comfortable ambience that is due in no small measure to the classy, generous service.’
                                                               - Stephanie Lyness

ORANGE TOWN NEWS, FRIDAY MARCH 9, 2007

…‘All the food at Coromandel is very tasty and unique which brings great challenges to describing their flavor. The best advice one can give would be to go there yourself and try some of the authentic foods. If you are unsure of what you may like to try, ask the staff as they are very passionate and knowledgeable about the cuisine they serve and honestly want all the customers to leave having a great dining experience.’

                                                          -Paul Tarbox

Situated on a corner in downtown Stamford, Coromandel is a twinkling new gem. Long may it sparkle.’

****    EXCELLENT

…‘We are double blessed and our quadruple stars are in culinary alignment. Translation: Coromandel…

‘Coromandel is tiny, but it packs a wallop in several ways; in its airy, attractive décor, welcoming service, generous portions and most importantly, in its originality, diversity and high gastronomic standards of its food. Much to praise, too little to fault.
