Bombay Mahal offers a solid lunchtime menu with good variety and tasty options, including crowd pleasers like butter chicken and naan. The butter chicken and lamb thalis are praised for savory depth and the naan is repeatedly noted as excellent. Takeout has been reliable for many, though some reviews warn to watch deals as they may not be honored and service can be inconsistent. New Year visits have shown mixed results, with some dining experiences described as disappointing due to dry tandoori chicken, salty curries, or bland salads, while other visits are characterized by flavorful, well presented dishes and friendly staff. Overall, the restaurant is seen as a strong Indian option in the area with reasonable prices and generous portions, though a few posts highlight decor, pace, or execution that could be improved.
Tastet avait raison. Ce restaurant familial sans prétention sert une cuisine indienne classique & délicieuse à prix très compétitifs. Un des meilleurs à Montréal.
L'endroit ne paie pas de mine mais c'est une valeur sûre pour manger indien à Montréal. Après avoir essayé de nombreux restaurants indiens, on revient toujours à la même conclusion, le korma, chicken butter & vindaloo sont les meilleurs, pour un budget raisonnable & en plus c'est un apportez votre vin.

Le meilleur poulet au beurre & que dire des naan 🤤
Je n'habite plus Montréal & je paye le gros prix sur Uber eats pour m'en faire livrer a l'occasion! Le poulet au beurre est a la fois doux & épicé!
Ça vaut le détour si vous aimez la cuisine riche
(J'ai l'impression qu'ils ont aussi augmenter la quantité de poulet dedans!)
Driver Alert: This place is not driver-friendly. The older man at the counter refused to let me use the restroom. It's a shame because the food might be already an issue, but the hospitality is nonexistent.
Poor treatment of delivery drivers. The old man at the front desk was very rude & wouldn't let me use the washroom while I waited for an order. If you don't respect the people delivering your food, you don't deserve the business.
Poor take out experience here. Person who took order told there's a Naan with each thali that I ordered & after pickup when I brought it home, there was none. That's a careless & dumb service with really small portions too.
Bombay Mahal offers a nice lunchtime menu at this restaurant, it is reasonable with good variety & it's tasty. I had the butter chicken thali & my friend had the lamb thali. These platters are wonderfully savory & the naan bread was great!

Stomach ache & diarrhea every time my friends & I eat here. Multiple people, different dishes, same problem. The food tastes great & affordable but the aftermath is not pretty.
Ils nous envoyés jamais transmis notre commande que nous avons commandé. Ils nous ont raccrocher au nez lorsqu'on a essayé de régler le problème plus qu'une fois.
Fantastic food, been ordering from this restaurant for years, but really be careful on their 2 for 1 deals, press 2 & comment that you want two, otherwise they don't honour their advertising.
Hopefully service is better next time, as I said great food & long time customer…
L'endroit n'est pas des plus remarquables en terme de décor & d'ambiance (il n'y a même pas de musique), mais on y va pour la cuisine. J'y étais avec des amis & nous avons pris une variété de plats très épicés. D'habitude, j'ai peur que ce ne soit pas réellement épicé, mais ce n'était pas le cas. C'était très piquant, comme je l'aime, & délicieux!
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.
Worst food ever, ordered an extra large salad & received a small size & all the food is flavourless & did not receive any sauce with the food too. Will never for the life of me order from those place, you guys should not too.
