Bombay Bistro

This is the best Indian food I had in Manhattan. The curry was not super thick and heavy. It was super light and didn't feel like it was dripped in oil. The location is great and interior is cute.Tip: try the chicken tikka masala.

The staff was courteous, and very accommodating. We arrived a bit early but the lady was gracious enough to have an early seat and entertain for 15 mins until all folks came in However the food was pretty average. We ordered the seekh kebab in appetisers which was good but then the main course took a down turn with the madras rail curry and then the garden kofta. The butter matar paneer was also very average The breads were good howeverWould recommend this place for appetizers and give one of the main course a try, maybe biryani

Really good food and really cozy interior with cute decorations for Valentine's Day. I liked that the naan wasn't overly buttered or oiled but was still soft and crispy in the right places. I do wish that they had a more extensive dessert menu -- when asked, all they had was gulab jamun.

Let's come straight to the issues-Daal makhni- there was only melted butter no daal in it!! Soo disappointed!Shrimp curry - was expecting the curry to be a bit thick to hold the texture, the shrimps were not well marinated in the curry, felt the shrimps were just added at the top at the last minute with runny curry.Biryani - Mehh, nothing great to mention. I have had much better food elsewhere!

Food was great. Lots of flavor. We tried the Lady Luck and Aperol Spritz drinks, my coworkers didn't seem to love theirs. Staff was nice, service was average, they didn't check on us much, forgot to give us a dessert menu, and at one point, stopped refilling our water glasses. But again, the staff was nice. Tried a few appetizers, they gave us Indian milk donuts on the house, and were out of rose ice cream so gave us delicious chocolate cake. The booth seating was a bit uncomfortable in that it sort of felt like you were forced to sit super upright. It's a small place with fun decor. A great spot for a meal!

This was a really good Indian spot. We got a few appetizers - the pani poori was really good and the water was perfectly spiced. We also got 3 curries, the saag, the matar paneer, and the korma. All three of the curries were perfectly cooked and had a good ratio of vegetables to paneer. The garlic naan was well cooked. All the food came out fresh and hot. Price: Dinner was reasonably priced and the total was about $50/person including drinks. Ambiance: The restaurant was small and cozy. They had monkey lamp shades which were really cute.

My friend and I visited on a busy Saturday evening in search of a cozy spot for small plates and drinks, and we were promptly seated. The cocktail menu was particularly impressive, offering a creative selection. We highly recommend the Lady Luck cocktail, which strikes a perfect balance between the sweetness of lychee and a refreshing tang. A standout dish was the lamb biryani, which was exceptionally flavorful. Overall, the service was attentive and efficient, and we would definitely recommend this venue for its inviting atmosphere and high-quality cuisine. All items were west village priced.

True to its name Bombay bistro has an unmistakable cozy neighborhood bistro vibe. Alas, if only the food had been better. The dahi Puri appetizer was not bad. it's a paani puri type Puri filled with a yogurt based bhel puri. Whaaat? Yes. The butter masala paneer was sadly a true disappointment. The sauce was as generic as they come and for some odd reason, the paneer was rock hard. definitely never ordering that again.On the bright side, the Aaloo baingan was good and the naans were excellent. If they could get everything up to the standard of the naan I would be back --but not until then.

Really amazing Indian food and great service! They have a good deal where for $45 you can get an entree, bread, side and a drink. The vindaloo was delicious but not too spicy, just the right amount. The drinks were also very good. The staff here were super nice and the food came out very quickly. The inside is very cozy and would be great for a date!

We get take out from here. Best chicken tikka masala ever and saag paneer is amazing. Garlic naan knocks it out of the ballpark!
