Bollywood Bistro Express

I just love eating at Bollywood Bistro Express! I'm in the building at least every other week for a recurring appointment, and we usually eat in the food court afterwards. This place has such healthy and delicious options! I've only gotten a few of their dishes--namely the tandoori chicken bowl and also their salmon tikka meal. The bowl is a great value at $12.95--you get 2 choices of protein, Channa masala, choice of a fried appetizer such as samosa or bhajji, brown or white rice, a large piece of naan, and the best part--the veggie toppings. Most Indian places don't know how to do decent salads, but here they offer cucumber salad, fresh greens, corn salad, and pickled onions. You can add all for no extra cost. This makes me happy because it's rare to find a variety of fresh vegetables to eat with Indian food which can be heavy. Other Indian places will just offer iceberg lettuce and shredded carrots with a tomato or 2 at best. The corn salad and cucumber salad are great. The other favorite dish is the salmon tikka (not the masala--just the grilled salmon). For $23.99 you get 4 salmon fillets, rice, and channa masala. So not as many varieties but this meal is very filling--definitely enough for 2 or for 1 person to eat 2 full meals. The salmon is deliciously grilled in Indian spices--my elementary school daughter loves this dish and is usually picky. As many have mentioned the service is very friendly and kind. They've given my kids free mango lassis and are always smiling. I hope these guys get more business! Try them out!

Bollywood is probably my favorite Indian restaurant with my go-to location in Great Falls. I came into the mall eatery expecting to get a sandwich at Superette but spotted the Bollywood Express which offers a lunch special...sold. You get to pick different options from their different prepared dishes (hence the express) but everything looked fresh and tasty. I wasn't disappointed as all the main dishes and sides were outstanding (chicken Vindaloo, chicken Vindaloo, palak paneer). Quick, tasty, and large portions...good stuff

Bollywood Bistro Express is one of the many vendors at the Ballston Quarter food court. The service was friendly and made good recommendations.CHICKEN BOWL PLATTER - 12.95I think that was the price. For the entree compartment, I got a bed of basmati rice topped with chicken tikka masala. There was a good amount of chicken and the curry was creamy and tangy -- pretty good but nothing out of ordinary. For my sides, I got palak paneer and roasted corn. Sadly, there was only two cubes of paneer, both which were quite good I just wish there was more of it. The spinach sauce was pretty oily, though. The roasted corn was OK. I would recommend any other side instead because you can make your own roasted corn at home.Overall, Bollywood Bistro Express was alright, nothing stellar. If you're looking for a quick meal in the Ballston area and you're craving Indian food, this vendor isn't a bad choice.

LOVEEEE this place! Every dish I've had is seriously so delicious. They do such a phenomenal job balancing spice with incredible flavor. Their portion sizes are generous and pricing is fair. Employees are always fast working and friendly.

A great find when my coworkers suggested eating at Ballston Quarter today and I wanted to find something different for lunch.....more on the healthy side..The menu has a lot to offer. Everything looked so good, that I decided to try their Triple Combo Platter...which gives you a choice to choose from 3 Entree Items and 2 Sides from the Buffet. So I dived in to sample some of everything. I ordered: Butter Chicken, Tandoori Chicken, Ground Lamb Malabari w/ Chick Peas, Cucumber Salad & Samosa!....as my entree and sides. The food was hot and tasted fresh.Everything was delicious and the food did not disappoint. A standout entree for me was the Butter Chicken. It had the right amount of spice and flavor. My order was completed fast and in no time or wait. The portions were more than enough to share as well. This I know, because by the time I got back at work, I severely needed a nap from all my Indian cuisine goodness that I received. Only a one star deduction for the tandoori chicken. It was a bit dry for my taste and was all white meat....which I am not a fan of and can't stand. lolIn all, a great experience as a first timer, delicious food and friendly counter-customer service. This will become my go to, fast casual Indian Cuisine spot for sure when needing something healthy and quick for lunch or dinner while in the Ballston neighborhood.*Elite Tip: Happy to report they offer online ordering for pick up and/or delivery as well.

The samosas were so good! This is perfect for a snack if you want something satiating but not a full meal. The sauces were so good. One was more sweet and one had some spice to it. Overall, the service was average paced. It wasn't very busy, but it did take a little bit for my food to be ready because it came out fresh (which is a plus). It is the type of place that you can go for a quick meal to go or sit down. It's a very casual type of place and is within the food hall. A lot of people were there with families or working and it's easy to come and go as you please.

Service was good - friendly staff, a little bit of wait time for tandoori chicken however that's to be expected since it was made fresh.Ambiance - cute! It's in a little food court area.Food - I think for me it was the chicken tikka masala that is swaying my rating to a 3 instead of a 4 or 5. It was a little too sweet for my tastes, which is not an experience I've really had with chicken tikka masala. Everything else was pretty average!

Good portions, good food, good price. Service is friendly and quick. Ambiance is mall food court, with lots of energy and people moving about. The taste, though, isn't as flavorful as I would expect from Indian food, and while they have 2 choices of meats, they could be more generous with the servings.

Yummy chicken tikka masala with fresh naan, samosa, spinach, and cucumber salad, plus a mango lassi. Service was friendly, and everything was delicious. It's a little hidden in the Ballston Quarter restaurant area, but worth the few minutes it takes to find it!

I have ordered the same order at Bollywood Bistro Express about 5 times already, chicken tikka masala with rice. It is very flavorful and a good size. Service is friendly and there is ample seating in the Ballston Exchange/Commons area. The food is usually ready in about 10 minutes. I've gotten the naan here before which was good. I've gotten the mango lassi twice, which is very thick and filling. It's not the best mango lassi I've had, about 3/5 for that drink, but the price is OK. Overall, I will continue to get the chicken tikka masala here!
