Spinach is always different either made with a bunch of mushrooms or onions or corn. Taste better with corn. The lady today was rude and refused to put sauce on my rice. I have been going there for 2 years now. And she is the only person to refuse me something I paid for. I will no longer go there. I will get my food elsewhere from here on out. So disappointed in her customer service.

I’m so sick of this , I wish there was zero star
The worst experience ever in my life
I found nail in my food , I found that nail while it was in my mouth …you guys are the worst restaurant , the most unhygienic restaurant.
Using gloves when touching foods is not that hard …I will report it to the higher departments

I used to eat here back in 2008 and it was incredible. That’s probably why it’s lasted the last 20 years. Rich butter chicken, fluffy naan bread. Good value!

This is a great place with amazing food…
but BE CAREFUL ordering online and check your not being double or triple charged.

Ordered online and was charged 3 times and got my food and was told those charges were pending but then they all went through and Bombay said to go to my bank which dispute was done then later denied from Bombay…. Reached out to the Owner multiple times who later left me on read and gave me no solution or response… this place stole my money and I never received anything back not even a store credit or response… This was my favorite place but no more as they never cared to fix this situation

We ordered a kothai chicken which came around an hour later, they said it will take 5 minutes. Later we found another item missing in the menu which was already charged. I wanted to talk to manager, but seems no one care. It’s totally horrible experience due to extreme rude and idiotic behavior. I must discourage everyone to go there.

This place deserves a big shout out for their best food . As well as best dahi puri ever in this NOVA . They put a lot of dahi and filling inside the dahi puri and its so flavour full. Their samosas Are expensive just a one samosa but was handmade so appreciate it . We always go there for sweets but i dont know why the rating here in google is so poor but they are actually trying to do their best . Love your dahi puri will come back all the time .

Most horrible food ever. Ordered Papri chat and other items. Papri chat had some wierd salty crackers and dahi vada. They gave me 2 dry cold kachori to chew and swallow as on asking for chutney they just told me you don’t get chutney with kachori. Money wasted and worst experience ever.

Wow, my memories of Bombay Café must’ve been really overrated because I went there today after probably about… Oh my gosh, has it been 20 years already… Yes. Well I moved out of the area for a while. But I always remembered the buffet at Bombay Café and the Pakora… Imagine my dismay the buffet is gone and it’s kind of like a soup kitchen set up now and the Pakora had just one lonely dumpling in it… Which, if it had been a buffet, I could’ve gotten more I think… Anyhow, the naan was… What was that pita bread you bought at the Safeway?? That was the worst naan I’ve ever had. I remember the sweets there being really top-notch… But I forgot to get some and it was a hot day so I didn’t wanna go back in… On second thought I think I’ll just keep my memory of how good those sweets were.

Horrible carry out for food ordered online 45 minutes prior to our arrival. Then food was 20 minutes late no apology and in addition we ordered more food upon arrival to pay it forward to a mom and kid outside the restaurant. The original order was not complete until we showed them all that it contained from email proving we really had an order . I’m confused how they have 900 average reviews with such a discombobulated system.

To top it off when we got home it’s not even the correct order. They provided the same dish when we ordered different ones.

I visited there for a cup of tea that may be their specialty but not standard I was expecting I never drink it

Went in for their regular $12 “platter”. It was 95% rice. Portions of meat are so small and served in these little cups. Food tasted good, but we would not go back unless they did a buffet or something different.

I’m not big on writing reviews but this here !!! Uhhhh highly disappointed at this place - haven’t been here in over a year.

To start with - walked into the restaurant and the door is disgustingly dirty. You would expect some finger prints but this here was beyond acceptable 🥴🥴🥴. Then after I walked in - there was a heavy musty smell - like perhaps the floors and counters might be dirty, not sure but it is NOTHING like it used to be before - appearance or cleanliness. The smell was def not the food - then I walked over to order - the counter which appears to be faux granite - uhhh couldn’t imagine how aged it looked along with wet spots.
Looks disgustingly dirty.

Very sad and disappointing to say the least !!!
Will not be coming here again.

While I know restaurants are a hard business to run - if you can’t keep up with basics, what’s the point.

I hate saying this but this is the demise of many Indian businesses. They are wrapped up in cutting corners every possible way and it’s allllll about the money. Customer service and aesthetics LAST.
