About Bombay Olive

Based on the reviews, Bombay Olive is a restaurant known for its amazing and delicious food. The goat biriyani, butter chicken, Chicken Tikka Masala, and Paneer Makhani are all mentioned as flavorful and fresh. The garlic naan is fluffy and garlicky, and the lamb curry has well-balanced aromatics. The service is great, with friendly staff who are kind and helpful. The restaurant itself is clean and simple.

However, there are some concerns. The location is described as the bad part of the area, very sketchy and shady. There is also a pocket pinch, as the food can be a little pricey, especially for lunch. The restaurant offers 4 toned options for every meal and is Westerner friendly, as they inquire about your preferred spice level on a scale of 1 to 10. Overall, the food and service are very good, and it is a great place for a group dinner experience where you can share dishes family-style.

Amazing place! Very friendly staff and great environment. Would definitely visit again.

The best restaurant in town: my only complaint is I can’t eat here more often because they are closed Sundays and everyday between 2 and 5. It’s always with the wait. The food is always super hot and flavorful. Chicken is good quality. Rice is cooked perfectly

Delicious every time.
We always get the butter chicken and palak paneer and it's wonderful.
I appreciate how you can customize the spice from 1-10.
