About

Bombay Mahal specializes in authentic Northern Indian culinary traditions through an extensive menu of tandoori specialties and rich curries. Diners encounter a selection of clay oven roasted meats marinated in traditional yogurt and robust spice blends. The kitchen prioritizes classic techniques to prepare staples like creamy butter chicken alongside a variety of fragrant basmati rice preparations. Freshly baked naan serves as an essential component of the table, perfectly suited for scooping up intricate masalas and lentil dals. The interior features a straightforward aesthetic that focuses on the intensity of the kitchen output rather than ornamental flair. This establishment offers a direct exploration of vibrant regional flavors characterized by the measured use of ginger, garlic, and freshly toasted aromatic spices in every signature dish.

My partner & I ordered takeout: chicken biryani, a chicken roll, some mango lassi & a soft drink, plus we received complimentary bottled water.

The service was quick & friendly & our dishes were fresh & hot. The mango lassi was fresh & cold. Everything looked appetizing.

I'm no connaisseur, but I've been to parts of Northern India, where I've tried many types of food, & I enjoyed my dinner here very much. I had a veg thali plate last time & it was also very good.

For reviewers who've had a less than stellar Uber etc delivery experience, I think it's helpful to know that some food doesn't travel well for delivery. For example, some sauces separate as they cool.

Delivery & takeout seem like the main modes of service. There are some tables & chairs but they seem like they're for customers who are waiting for their orders.

The interior finish is clean, but it shows normal signs of wear. The server told me that they have been at this location for ten years. A little paint & some new upholstery would make a difference.

Overall, a good experience. Thank you!

I ordered the Seekh Thali & Non-Veg Thali, but the food didn't meet my expectations. The seekhs were too dry & just spicy without any real flavor. There were no onions or salad served, which is unusual for this kind of meal.

The atmosphere wasn't great either. It was uncomfortable seeing Uber drivers not being treated well while they waited for orders, & I found it shocking that there were no hand sanitizers available anywhere, especially in a food establishment. Cleanliness & a welcoming vibe are just as important as the food, & unfortunately, this place fell short on all fronts.

The vegetarian thali is outstanding value for delicious & generous amounts of food. The eggplant dish & veggie curry were delightfully flavourful, & the naan was hot & pull-apart doughy.

The service was very friendly & welcoming.

Ordered takeout from here. Butter chicken was delicious! Chana masala & mixed vegetables were small portions & a bit too spicy. There was no veggie thali plate available on uber eats but i see it on the menu here.
