    It was a good experience overall, the food was really good and the staff was friendly even it is a small restaurant felt very comfy. They should improve their service in terms of attention. Specially for busy nights like December. There wasn’t a specific server for each table even we had to call someone to take our order. Not a big deal but we attention is everything. I definitely come back.

    I took my husband out for his birthday and we had a fabulous time with delicious food. The food was outstanding. The only thing I had trouble with, was I asked this waitress to change out my order to a prefix menu, but keeping the same food that I ordered and she denied me. She said she could not change it in the machine. I wasn’t ordering anything out of the box. It would only benefit the restaurant. There was no reason for her to say no. Other than that, the food was outstanding.  .

    We first came here on a whim after seeing an exhibit nearby. It was pretty crowded and we did not have a reservation. They were so nice and offered us a table despite it. The service was excellent and the food was flavorful with just the right amount of spice. I had the Madras Mail Railway Chicken Curry and my husband had the Palak Paneer. We came back a week later, with reservations this time! It was just as enjoyable as the first time. Bombay Bistro will definitely be a regular stop for us!

    Small, wonderful tucked away Indian bistro. Really delicious food, in regular people sized portions, with subtle and delightful flavors. The Short Rib was particularly good and a spin on 'usual' Indian flavors. A+
