    From the welcome we received on arrival to leaving the restaurant after a wonderful meal this was a fantastic culinary experience. The entire staff were so friendly seating my wife and I in a quieter area near the bar. The waiting staff had an excellent knowledge of the menu and recommended dishes for us. The dishes were absolutely wonderful with the lamb chops being the highlight. I would highly recommend this restaurant and will go back again the next time I am in New York.

    We first came here on a whim after seeing an exhibit nearby. It was pretty crowded and we did not have a reservation. They were so nice and offered us a table despite it. The service was excellent and the food was flavorful with just the right amount of spice. I had the Madras Mail Railway Chicken Curry and my husband had the Palak Paneer. We came back a week later, with reservations this time! It was just as enjoyable as the first time. Bombay Bistro will definitely be a regular stop for us!

    Excellent, creative & authentic food, very friendly and attentive service, and great value for money. My wife and I went for a brunch for my birthday. And really enjoyed it. Even the complimentary masala chai was very well done - and I am super-picky about chai. Really appreciated the birthday gulab-jamun as well. The manager shared all their ventures in Manhattan. And we even ended up getting a dosa at Ammi at Pier 57 later in the day.
