Across reviews, Bombay Mahal is seen as a go to for flavorful Indian cuisine with consistently tasty dishes such as butter chicken and lamb korma, plus standout naan and samosas, and many diners call it a reliable favorite in Montreal for value and technique. The ambiance is described as modest or ordinary, sometimes with no music, and the dining room is not the focus while the kitchen shines; flavors are generally balanced and rich, though a few visits report issues like dry tandoori chicken, a watery curry, or overly salty sides that miss the mark. Service is frequently praised for friendliness and hospitality, with staff going the extra mile and occasionally offering complimentary portions, while other visits note slower or less polished service. Takeout is popular for convenience, and most reviewers agree the food quality, portions, and value make Bombay Mahal worth returning to, even if an off day can occur.
Plats très savoureux à prix très compétitif. Goûteux & variés.
Avons opté pour le takeout compte tenu de l'ambiance plutôt ordinaire dans la salle manger.
Une belle découverte! Mon nouveau restaurant indien préféré!! Beaucoup aimé mon agneau Korma, mon samossa était délicieux, la pâte feuilletée & légère m'a vraiment plu! Mon lassi à la mangue était savoureux! J'ai hâte d'y retourner pour essayer d'autres plats!!
The restaurant was amazing! The food was absolutely delicious - full of flavor & beautifully presented. The only downside was that the service was a bit slow, but the quality of the food definitely made up for it. Overall, a great place to eat if you don't mind waiting a little for something truly worth it.
On avait l habitude de commander à emporter très souvent. Deux fois qu on voit le prix avoir augmenté & rien à voir ce qui est écrit sur leur site. Osez au moins mettra à jour votre site plutot que de tromper la clientèle. Cependant ces deux fois nous avons remarqué qu'il n est plus demander sur la machine l'ajout d'un pourboire ! Serait-il devenu inclus ? Bcp trop d interrogerions
It was a bad experience for me & my family. I ordered thali chicken tandoori was no flavor. I can't eat that.i don't know how the chefs cooked that kind of cooking.& served it from kitchen. Marinating was so poor & dingy.
Definitely not the best in Montreal, not even close to the top 5 among Indian restaurants. If you are habituated with the taste of Indian cuisine, you won't return to this place. Atleast we won't.
It is a delicious place to discover!! The owner is super nice & sweet & I enjoyed my yummy lunch & getting to know her. I will be back !! Thank you so much !!

We went there with a family. The food is very tasty & the quantity is good. Reasonable price. Highly recommend. Thank you 😊 Special thanks to Geetika !! She always welcome you with smile :) Thank you again.
Bombay Mahal on Jean-Talon never disappoints! We ordered as take-out butter chicken, shrimp korma, naan & chaat papri. The chaat papri looked more like pain puri but was just as good. The naan wasn't puffy but rather condensed like a roti.
