Tamarindo's planning a move

From Broad Axe to Flourtown. Reason: a reboot.

Tamarindo's - one of the longer-running Mexican restaurants in the Ambler/Blue Bell area - is preparing a move 10 minutes away to Flourtown this summer.

When Fernando Sauri opened his BYOB in Broad Axe Shopping Center 16 years ago, there were few Mexican options in the area. (Chief along them was Marita's Cantina in Fort Washington, now the home of the well-regarded and more refined Cantina Feliz.)

"This will be better for everybody," said Sauri, who is looking to rejuvenate the business though maintain "the same food, the same staff and the same heart."

The new location will be 726 Bethlehem Pike in Flourtown, a lovely stone house near Valley Green Road (and a block north of Scoogi's) that most recently accommodated the offices of a construction company.

He expects to close in June or July and to reopen in September.
