Bombay Lounge

Bombay Lounge just reopened at 64 Water Street and I strongly recommend their weekend $20 lunch buffet! It is the best Indian food you'll ever have!-Amazing food, service and ambience in a classy atmosphere

The food was good and service was great.I loved the entrees but some of the appetizers could have used more flavor. Overall a good spot for Indian food in Central, MA.

Fantastic, clean, friendly, and very very tasty and fresh food. I love the spices and flavor of traditional Indian cuisine, but I am not dialed on what exactly each dish is, and the chef, and hostess were extremely kind, and helpful. I love stopping into new local places and having the locals recommend, and help choose their favorite dishes to share. Thank you for the healthy dinner, while exploring the nightlife of Worcester!

Much better experience with takeout last night, everything was outstanding! We had chicken tikka and chicken korma. Chili naan was phenomenal if you like the heat like me, has chopped fresh chilis on it. Only feedback is it's called "lounge" but still they do not serve liquor, originally I thought they were waiting on the liquor license, not sure if they are. Most places that don't serve alcohol are BYOB and I don't believe this restaurant is. Most people like to have a drink with dinner, and don't mind grabbing their own. But if it's not permitted they'll choose someplace else for dinner. Maybe consider BYOB if that's possible, either until a liquor permit is requested or as an alternative. Hope to see this restaurant succeed!

There's no topping Bombay. I've probably visited at least six times in the last year, and each time I leave doubling down on my intention to dunk my entire head in a catering tray of their dal makhani because it's so good. Naan is perfect, lassi is the best and brightest that I've ever had, their dishes -- okra, lentils, any and all chicken -- are distinctive and delicious, and they make a proper gulab jamun. Kala khatta is a really neat surprise, and they have the best lunch special in town. It's always so cute and romantic to go there. They are such an outstanding addition to the city.

The restaurant offers a clean and neat ambiance, but it doesn't stand out in any particular way. The service was disappointingly average. As for the food, it was rather mediocre. The curries lacked distinctive flavors and were missing key ingredients that could have elevated dishes like the chicken Chettinad and lamb vindaloo. Overall, the experience was underwhelming.

We tried Bombay Lounge's buffet last weekend and everything was delicious. They have different themes for different weekends and last weekend was ' taste of southern India'. All the dishes were cooked to perfection. Meat was very tender not harda nd chewy like some orher nearby Indian restaurants that I have been too, no use food color or excessive cream whatsoever. By far the best Indian place around if you are looking for authentic Indian food. Will be looking forward to the weeknight buffet themes that they are planning in future.

Our favorite spot! We love date nights at Bombay Lounge! We also take our family here for lunch buffets on the weekends. Kind, creative, generous and attentive staff. Jai, one of the chefs is an outstanding! Thank you. We will keep coming back with joy!

It was a cold New England evening as we ventured outside, and we were looking forward to some hot and tasty Indian food. This was our third visit to the Bombay Lounge, and unfortunately it may have been our last. There was only one other party when we arrived a few minutes before 6pm, and we were immediately seated by the waiter/host. We took a booth by the window, which as the night wore on proved to be a mistake, as it was very cold there. But we decided to stay rather than hassle with moving to another table. We ordered two appetizers, an order of samosas and the juicy chicken lollipops. These arrived pretty quickly about 10 minutes after our order was placed. We really liked the three heavily fried samosas, and saved one to take home, but found the chicken lollipops odd, they were difficult to eat with a knife and fork, and very messy to pick with your hand. No additional napkins were offered, and we thought the chicken was a little tough. One of these was left behind, deemed unworthy of taking home.We ordered two Masala Chai teas, hoping a hot tea would warm us up. The tea was tasty and warm, but not hot. We didn't realize it was $9 a cup, more on that topic in a moment. For our dinners we selected:* Chicken Chettinad $24* Creamy Lamb Korma $28* Peshawary Naan $9* Ghee Rice $9Of all these dishes, I liked the sweet Naan the best. It was nicely executed, warm and delicious. I've had better Lamb Korma, and though the presentation was very nice, the Korma wasn't very creamy, and insufficiently hot. My co-diner thought the Chettinad was "okay", I didn't care for it. The rice was standard fare, mild and a good addition to the Korma, Bombay Lounge does not include rice with their dinners. The Korma and Chettinad weren't very hot, which was surprising considering how long it took for these to be prepared. My co-diner said it was over 45 minutes for these to arrive at our table, and when they finally arrived, they were tepid at best. The bottom line from our perspective was very slow service, average food at best, and high prices. Our bill for two diners with tip was $146, without any alcoholic beverages. We cannot recommend the Bombay Lounge.

The truffle mushroom soup was by far my favorite thing there but everything else at the restaurant was amazing and seemed authentic. The sauce in the lobster dish was amazing and i had to take it home and order some garlic naan bread for it. Would def recommend!!! The staff were very attentive and chased me down to box my cake which I was hesitant to take just because I was so full and had a flight to catch the next morning. Definitely appreciated it though!
