Citysearch Editorial Review. One of Harvard Square’s dining stalwarts for almost two decades, the Bombay Club moved to Boston’s South End in 2009. Bombay Club has stamped the spot with Indian cultural references: Bright, otherworldly Bollywood flicks play on the HD screens, while Hindu god Ganesha smiles beneficently from a wall. Similarly, the menu unites traditional dishes such as the tandoori classic, chicken tikka masala, with more exotic ones like a lychee paneer--one of many vegetarian options--made with tangy curd cheese and sweet lychee. End with a extremely sweet, but vibrantly cardamom-spiced and carrot-filled halwa cake.…
Not the same as Cambridge favorite. I was a longtime (12-15 years) regular customer of the Cambridge location so I was disappointed to see them leave. Just went to the new Boston location and I was extremely disappointed. The food is not at all the same. The only samosa choice was a selection of 4 mini samosas that arrive unidentified on the plate. It didn't matter because the all tasted the same. The chicken tikka masala was in a strange flavorless tomato sauce, chicken korma was overpowered by a strong cinnamon. I would have rather enjoyed my memory of the place.…
Not a great place to eat, go for the view. Buffet is ok. After visiting many times over the years. We do not always find food OK , never great but sometimes bad. Chat Bar is good. .
Bad service... waiters with no Decency.......
We were there on Wednesday night for dinner with friends and some older members of the family.
The basic service water came after 15 minutes and that too when the restaurant was not even half filled.
Waiters looked like Drakula's in total Black uniform. They were outspoken which they must not. The Older persons with us were not willing to eat so we ordered 6 entries . The Waiter insisted us to order more entrees , we explained him the reason still he was speaking in a not so good tone . I mean who is he to tell us what to eat and what not to. Food was bland and naan breads were too small compared to what are available in other Indian Restaurants.…
Big Dissappointment.
This was my first time visiting Bombay Club and the restaurant was a major disappointment. We were waited on very poorly, never getting water when we needed it and given ONE paper napkin to wipe our
hands instead of the usual cloth. As said before, the only thing that the waiters brought willingly and quickly was the check. We opted for lunch buffet.
The food itself was very bland and lacked the taste of spices that is normally entailed with Indian food. On top of that, the food was never replaced, cold, and there was limited choice for the entrees (6). The rice was not cooked very well and the chicken had a weird texture. Keep in mind we went on Father's Day since I wanted to take my father somewhere nice. My father was disappointed and that is enough for me to never go back to Bombay Club.…
