Excellent Indian Food. The best in Austin.

by pics4nic

I am picky about restaurants, but this is incredible. The buffet is always fresh and clean and the food is absolutely wonderful. I fell in love with this restaurant 7 years ago when I was pregnant and had read that Indian food is good for the unborn baby. We ate here weekly and have loved it ever since. The owners are so nice and are hard-working and it is a Mom and Pop place. Very Austin-like. Very friendly. Very local. Very excellent. The atmosphere is o.k., but the food is so good, it makes up for it. The atmosphere at Clay Pit downtown is better, but the food can't compare to Bombay!

• Pros: Clean, fresh wonderful food.

Good Indian Food

by sputnik0110

Had dinner and ordered a combo with Sag Paneer, Naan, Daal and then also Lamb Biryani. Everything was great but definitely not the spiciest Indian I've had. Just good and tasty.

Great service and location.

• Pros: Ample servings, fresh, nice atmosphere
• Cons: Food not spicy enough for my taste

Just plain bad

by bryankerss

I love Indian food. Having just moved to the Austin area, I wanted to find a good Indian restaurant. My first attempt at the Bombay Grill was an abysmal failure. I'm generally not so harsh, but due to the discrepancy I found in reviews of this restaurant before dining there I wanted to be clear. It is not a good Indian restaurant in any facet. It's not terrible, you won't choke or die, and if you've never had Indian food before you won't hate it, but it is in no way good. The food lacked in spice and flavor. Everything was bland from the biryani to the curry. The mint chutney, usually a favorite dish of mine, was just bad. Even the chai was bad. I do not recommend this restaurant to anyone who likes Indian food, and if you've never had it, this is not the place to learn.

• Cons: Bad food
