Review Summary

Bombay Mahal is widely regarded as a staple for authentic and flavorful Indian cuisine in Montreal, consistently praised for its delicious butter chicken, diverse thali platters, and excellent naan. Many patrons value the restaurant as a reliable, affordable, and family-friendly destination that provides generous portions and high-quality meals. While the atmosphere is frequently described as simple and unpretentious, leading some to prefer takeout, the overall consensus highlights the food as the main draw. Although experiences with service and consistency can occasionally vary, the dedicated staff and overall value continue to make it a popular choice for long-time customers and newcomers alike.

Very rude service.

I witnessed something today that left me genuinely disturbed.

A delivery driver picking up an Uber order was denied access to the restroom - despite actively working for this restaurant. No favor was being asked, just a basic human necessity.

In 2026, treating the people who help generate your revenue as if their dignity doesn't matter is unacceptable. Delivery drivers are not disposable labor; they are part of what keeps businesses running.

This moment said far more about this restaurant than any menu or branding ever could.

Every time I go, the workers are so lovely, & accommodating. I took my family here & the staff were so nice & gave extra food for free, & helped my parents a lot. I personally go as my cheat meal & they always do the extra mile to make me happy (like putting extra sauce on my rice for free!!)

Ruby (I believe is her name) has been so kind to me especially. But all the staff are great.

Highly recommend!! One of the best spots in town for Indian for sure.

Went to Bombay Mahal today for New Year dinner with my wife, & unfortunately, the experience was far below expectations.

I'm Tamil & grew up eating authentic Indian food, so I know what proper flavours, balance, & preparation should taste like. That's why this was especially disappointing.

I ordered the butter chicken thali, & my wife had the lamb thali. Both dishes missed the mark badly. The tandoori chicken pieces were dry & overcooked, the salad lettuce was soggy with no freshness, & the aloo bean side was excessively salty. My butter chicken was watery & lacking depth, while my wife's lamb was salty & not spicy at all, which makes no sense for a lamb curry.

This restaurant used to be excellent, which is why we chose it for New Year. In the past, the food was amazing even if the service wasn't great. Today it was the opposite.. the service was good, but the food quality & execution were very poor. I've came here multiple times in the past within last 15 years.

Really hope this was just an off day, but for a place with such a strong reputation, this was a big miss.

Worst food & service. I ordered food through uber & the order was not complete. I did not recieve the whole order. I call them & they did not solve the problem. Neither they send me the missing item nor gave me refund for that. I will never recommend this restaurant to anyone.
