    While the food was good, it was too spicy for me. I ordered what was supposed to be mild, but it was not.

    We had a 9:30 pm dinner & when we showed up the hostess was rather rude & told us they are just doing takeout. We responded by stating we had a reservation at 9:30 pm & then she said, “Fine, find a seat anywhere but we’re closing at 10 pm…”. At that point, based on the servers’ attitude, we knew our meal was going to be rushed & we will not get good service. We decided to leave. DEFINITELY NOT GOING TO COME BACK & WILL NEVER RECOMMEND THIS PLACE.

    Overall it was fine. Could have been more flavorful. Server was very nice but kitchen forgot one appetizer. Fine for a quick dinner.

    Excellent Indian cuisine in a no frills setting. Some of the best of what I'd consider traditional Indian food in the city and at reasonable affordable prices. A great pre/post theater meal, or anytime dining in or take out. The food, quality, prices, portions, and selection are the best. Do yourself and your taste buds a favor and stop in.

    Loved the food and flavors. Well priced. With few diners, our food took 45 minutes to come after ordering. . Had to chase them to get the bill. Very small restaurant-Don't understand. We went pre theater and with a 615 reservation, had to race to get to theater

    Travelled from the uk and looked at the menu and reviews before arriving which looked Really good. On arrival staff were really friendly and not pushy with ordering food. All food we had was excellent and the lamb madras and garlic naans especially so. Recommended to all locals and travellers

    It was closed due to a fire. Not sure how long it’s been closed but disappointed for sure. Thank goodness just down the road 2 blocks north there was a wonderful small family Indian restaurant that accommodated us and it was amazing!!!!

    We showed up for our 9:45pm reservation at around 9:30pm and we greeted at the door by the waitress informing us that they were only taking take-out orders and that the restaurant was closing because it was cold. After explaining that we had a 9:45pm reservation we were told that we could sit and place our order and pay for it up front as they had to cash out and we would be able to eat but we could only get what we ordered at that moment. The food was quite good but the evening was spoiled by the rush we felt to eat and get out of there so that they could go home out of the cold.

    The food was delightful. The curries tasted as though the meet seeped for hours in the pot as opposed to the all too frequent occurrence of many places where the meet is sauced just before serving. The flavor were complex and well balanced. Service was attentive. A great meal and good value for money. A new find for me. I’ll be back.

    We were visiting NYC over the Presidents’ Day weekend (February 2020), and read the OT reviews for the Bombay Grill House. Relying on the reviews we chose it over all the many choices for Indian fare for an evening family dinner. It exceeded all the reviews!! Excellent authentic Indian food, great and varied menu, wonderful and attentive staff. Who we believe was the Owner stopped by our table twice to make sure we were satisfied and enjoying our dinner. 👍👍👍👍👍

    Excellent food, smaller seating and we found the ambiance very good for conversation. A very good selection of both non- and vegetarian selection, ample servings, and a great waitstaff. Good Happy Hour selection and wine/beers (no spirits).

    The chicken tikka masala was very dry. The sauce was good but the chicken itself was incredibly dry. Maybe it had been warmed up a few times or had been cooked earlier and heated all day. Not sure. Everything else was great so I'd love to give a better review but that's the truth.

    Food was traditional; served us decent amount. Tasted real good. The big issue for our table was that it was way too hot in the restaurant. Made it uncomfortable to 100% enjoy the experience.

    I had ordered a dish that was unexpectantly spicy and they took it back and gave me another very quickly. The entree was delicious, flavorful and a good value. Also they gave us a complimentary dessert. The wine and the appetizer were also very good. I will return.
