Bombay Mahal Express is described in multiple reviews as a consistently satisfying, fast and affordable Indian spot with generous portions and a wide range of flavors. The veggie thali is repeatedly highlighted, along with favorites such as butter chicken, saag paneer, aloo gobi, chana masala and naan, with many noting authentic Indian flavors and comforting, home style dishes. Service is described as friendly and efficient, and both dine in and takeout orders are praised for value and reliability. The menu is noted for plentiful vegetarian options and generous portions, with takeout often yielding leftovers. A few reviews point to occasional sweetness or minor inconsistencies in some dishes, but overall the sentiment emphasizes high quality, consistent taste, clean surroundings, and quick service that keeps customers returning to this Montreal staple.
Meilleur poulet Pakora en ville! Quoi dire du poulet au beurre dans sa sauce sucrée épicée! Je recommande pour tous ceux & celles qui veulent faire l'expérience de la cuisine indienne traditionnelle! Recettes maison!

My go-to spot for fast, affordable, & satisfying meals! I always order the veggie thali, & it never disappoints. The combination of spinach & korma-style curry is my favorite every time. Always flavorful & filling!
It used to be good. I ordered a thali & it was watery & flavourless. The naan was hard & mushy. I was extremely disappointed. I have been a customer for 20 years but I am never going back. The service was horrible as the person at the counter half pretended I wasn't there & put the food in the plastic container despite me eating in the restaurant & there being a tower of trays to eat in. She even put a plastic lid on the container. Everything about my experience was horrible.
Excellent platter of butter chicken, saag paneer, aloo gobi & samosa. The naan was so flavourful! Fast & friendly service. My colleague enjoyed her platter which consisted of lamb & , chicken curries & chick pea curry. The amount of chili in the dishes was just as she liked!

Such good value for money! I got the three veggie curry option it came with rice & naan bread & only cost $12.50 & I couldn't actually finish it all there was so much. & it tasted amazing :) I would highly recommend
You can never go wrong with this place, I have been visiting here since it was opened. Authentic Indian flavors, best butter chicken, & Naan. Chicken curry, Gobhi Aloo, & Chana masala remind me of back home. Hats off to the chef.

This place is THE BEST! The food is super yummy Indian comfort food. I travel out of my way to pick up a veggie thali. & Navi is so sweet. It's a great MTL resto.
Nous avons commandé plusieurs plats chez Bombay Express en livraison & nous avons été globalement satisfaits. Les bahjis étaient bons, mais pas aussi croustillants qu'on l'aurait espéré. Le poulet au beurre était délicieux, mais un peu trop sucré à notre goût. L'agneau épicé était finalement pas si épicé, mais bien assaisonné. Le paneer crémeux tikka masala était un vrai délice, avec une sauce crémeuse parfaite. Les nans à l'ail étaient tendres & super savoureux, un vrai régal ! Les portions étaient généreuses, & nous avons eu des restants pour plus tard. En somme, une expérience agréable & nous recommanderions sans hésiter !

Food was shit
Lomb korma was soaked in sugar like they got sugar for free
Shrimp madras tasted SO bad , shrimp is usually my fav thing to eat even boiled is good didn't know you can cook SHRIMP that bad
I had a takeout order, the combo for 1 person, & unfortunately it was not worth it. The portion size was scant for the price point & the food was just so-so. The chicken was rubbery & parts of the naan was stiff & hard to chew.
