Bombay Bhel

Excellent service and food, Thali system is good.
I feel somewhat expensive as compared to other but still it is ok.
Near to my office so I have given 4.5 star.

Highly Recommended!. We had come here on a Friday evening at around 6:45 pm for dinner. When we walked-in, we were instantly greeted by a kind younger woman whom asked us how many would be dining; we responded with four. She then brought us to a table on the top level which was near the kitchen. The restaurant itself was medium-sized, with two levels of tables, with individuals sitting only on the top level on the evening that we were dining.

Once we had been seated, we were brought a complimentary-basket of crispy bread, along with the menus. After browsing the menu for about five minutes, we finally decided on our items. For myself, I had ordered the Butter Chicken with Naan ($13.95), while the others in our party settled on the Chicken Curry with Naan ($12.95), the Karahi Goshti with Naan ($13.95), and the Lamb Biryani ($13.95). One of the members of our party also ordered a beer, which came out to $5.25.

Once we had placed our orders, we had to wait about twelve minutes for our items to arrive. As we were waiting, we looked around the restaurant and admired the beautiful photographs on the wall, along with the light fixtures and decorative pieces. Once the items had arrived, we were given a large basket of Naan, with about 6-7 large pieces of Naan inside. Each of our dishes were circular and small however, they were deep, filled to the brim with the items that we had ordered. The Lamb Biryani was quite large, with the long-dish overflowing with lamb and rice.

Once we had tried our items, we were pleasantly surprised at how delicious everything tasted! The Butter Chicken was immaculate, with just the perfect amount of sauce and chicken pieces, each lathered for just the perfect amount of time. When I had dipped the Naan in the sauce, it was pure heaven! I don’t know how they make the sauce and the chicken, but it’s simply divine! I also had a chance to try the Lamb Biryani which was moist and filled with lamb, spices, and vegetables, more than any other rice dish that I had ever eaten.

Throughout the entire meal, we were continuously asked if we were enjoying our meal, which made the experience even better. We felt as though we were cared for, which made us glad that we had chosen this restaurant. Once we were finished our meal, we were given our receipt, which came out to $67.85. We were impressed with how affordable each of the dishes were, along with how delicious they tasted. Will definitely be back, and would HIGHLY recommend to anyone who wants to try a delicious meal with great service.

Nothing Special. The food was tasty and the prices were reasonable for what you got. However for some reason the atmosphere at this restaurant was not right. It was apparent that the wait staff had some dispute with the other staff that day. This made us feel quite uncomfortable with the place. The other problem was there was really nothing memorable about the food. It was not bad however it was not exceptional either.

So much more for so much less!. Bombay Bhel has been the only restaurant I will order from for 4 years. Their food is top quality, and there is a wide variety. Best of all, though, is the prices. Not only are the prices for each dish cheaper than most other places, the dish actually comes with a side rice or naan too! I've yet to find an Indian restaurant that will give you a dish and a naan for under $10, let alone under $5 more than Bombay Bhel. My big complaints are that they don't deliver, and there are no locations near downtown TO where I now live. I almost always choose the Oakville location, but have also been to the Eglinton, Battleford, and Sheppard locations and they are all excellent.

The one in Oakville is better than the Thornhill location, but for hearty, family style Indian food, look no futher than THE BHEL!
