Excellent food quality. Calamari is not fried and served in a nice coconut lightly curried sauce. Fish and lamb dishes are excellent.

I love this place! I come here once a week at least. It’s the best Indian food I’ve had and that includes every place in DC. The food is consistently delicious and for an appetizer, bread, and two entrees it’s extremely affordable! The staff and owners are so friendly, the owner and manager will always come and say hi which is very nice. Can’t recommend this place enough.

We hadn't been to Bombay Bistro for many years so decided to give it a try. We sat outside on a beautiful evening. For some reason, our food took forever to get to us -- even though people around us were served much quicker. We ordered a masala dosa which was delivered with nothing to use to cut it up so it could be shared. We wanted it as an appetizer -- which we told our server -- and it arrived after all of the other dishes were placed on the table. The presentation of the Tandoori chicken was not good -- some small pieces of chicken with nothing else on the plate. Once we finally got our food, the food was tasty. However, the server did not bring enough serving spoons so we had to ask for them -- so we finally gave up and just used the one that came with the rice. This all seemed very sloppy for a restaurant that has been in business for 32 years. The experience was not a good one and I don't think we will return any time soon.

Worst experience. There’s no air conditioning apparently it’s been down. If anybody wants to go in summer I would definitely not recommend. Food was not so great, the portions are too small comparing to their pricing. Not worth the money spent people. Customer service and their staff is friendly.

Without doubt the best Indian restaurant in the area. I have eaten at the BB since the early 90's and I have never been disappointed. The new Sunday brunch menu has tasty appetizers and the usual delicious entrees. The Chef is truly creative and produces dishes of with unusual and subtle flavors . This is the only place to go if you are looking for outstanding Indian food.

The food is either really good or bad. An example of bad is the chicken saag since they use chicken breast and not dark meat It doesn't come close to the mark.

We tried the Sunday brunch today, delicious!! Didn’t take any photos because everything looked exactly like the website photos: colorful, beautiful, perfect. We stuck with more traditional fare (all vegetarian) but the eggy things sounded good, too. Food was flavorful and not too salty for us. We had a very nice time.

One of the best Indian food I have had. Fish was delicate as were pakoras. Rice was fluffy with grains separate. Chicken chettinad was flavorful but delicately spiced. Topped it off with sublime creamy kulfi. Had colorful Shirkhand parfait dessert, as well.

This is my new go to Indian place. The food was excellent. Despite the seemingly small portions, the food was high quality and thus filling. We were seated outdoors cheerfully, even though no one else was seated out there. They turned the lights on, refilled water and were generally friendly. Parking could be an issue at peak times but I didn't have an issue .

Brunch on Mother's Day was pretty silent, AND IT'S A CRYING SHAME! If you love Indian fare, this is the spot to come to. If you love value for your money, this is the spot to come to. We had a rather mixed crowd for brunch, a vegan, a couple of people who don't eat beef or pork, and myself (omnivore). No one from our table left hungry, and everyone was very satisfied with their meals. I had the lamb shank and was surprised by the most tender lamb I've had. My only regret is this place is not closer to me.

Great quality Indian food centrally located in Rockville, close to town center. Very fast service turnaround ie time taken from order to getting food to table. Chicken Tikka with splendid with minimal spices and made to perfection. Dal Makhni was delicious. Lamb Rogan Josh was a bit let down - one could taste tomato puree - due to which it was sour.

Restaurant has the warmth and energy of a neighborhood dining place. We found the food was carefully prepared and presented. Tandoori Salmon was cooked perfectly and so were the seekh kabob . Fresh , flavorful and wholesome! It was noteworthy that paneer was not rubbery or dry as the marination had soaked in and made for a very pleasant addition to the meal . Not surprised that this place is still humming after three decades!

We started with Soups (Kerala Bisque and Seasonal soup made with green peas)which are good and then the starters (Tandoor Chicken & Chicken Seekh Kebab)were just okay but the main course really disappointed us. Paneer Makhani is just spaghetti sauce with Panner. The Chicken Curry Madras felt decent after the Paneer but it was just okayish.

Was hesitant about coming to this restaurant as the reviews made it seem either REALLY GOOD or REALLY BAD, but the general consensus from my three friends and I was that it was "just ok". Even though the atmosphere and service are 4 stars, the food is most important to me which is why it's overall a 3. The Good: service was friendly, restaurant was bright, clean, and cute with a nice volume of music, food was served quickly, none of the food was bad. I personally liked the lamb curry that came as part of my thali set and one friend really enjoyed the garlic naan. The lemony(?) pickles were AMAZING (I would buy those separately to keep at home if offered). The Just Ok: while the servings are decently sized, none of us were wowed by the food itself which made it hard to justify the price. One friend said she had made better garlic naan herself, another friend who tried the saag paneer in my thali set said she had tasted better at Trader Joe's. Only one of the 5 dishes to my thali set was good enough to eat without pickle or chutney to enhance it. All of us agreed we had eaten better Indian cuisine at other restaurants for a better price. The Bad: we were offered a sample of the seasonal soup (pumpkin) - while this was super thoughtful and we appreciated the gesture, the soup itself was terrible, just the taste of salt and nothing else. Note: three of the four of us have lived abroad all over the world, enjoy both Americanized and original cuisines, and have many South Asian friends whose home-cooking we all enjoy at full spice.

The place is a hole in the wall. The service, meh. They close at 9p so they rushed us to order and then at 9p we asked for dessert and they said we cannot eat it there but we could take it home. It makes me wonder how well they clean up bc most restaurants close at a certain time but they will stay another hour to clean up. It is very small and the food was very bland. We will not return.

As someone with Celiac Disease, I found their menu to be VERY well labeled! As always, eat things at your own risk if you have restrictions, but I didn't feel ill from this place. The flavors were DELICIOUS and the variety was a breath of fresh air and the mango lassi was the best one I've had. Each dish was plentiful and flavorful with some sauces on the side.

Bombay Bistro holds a special place in Rockville for me. In their first two years they opened everyone I knew went and enjoyed the food so much it immediately felt like their restaurant was always a part of Rockville. In every year since the food is always amazing, so flavorful and succulent that it is the only chance I could go vegetarian because their Saag Paneer with cheese is almost as good as the Chicken Palak. The Chicken Tikka is a great introductory dish for anyone not already a fan! (Traducido por Google) Para mí, Bombay Bistro ocupa un lugar especial en Rockville. En sus primeros dos años abrieron, todos los que conocía iban y disfrutaban tanto de la comida que inmediatamente sentí que su restaurante siempre fue parte de Rockville.

My wife and I enjoyed dining here on a Friday afternoon before the crowds. We selected two appetizers, one entree, and one large side. Each presented individual flavors, without the seasonings seeming to be duplicated, as so often happens. The appetizers of Pan Puri Shots in a fragile, rosebud-like crust and Cauliflower Pecorino Kulcha with a subtle underlying cheese base, were delicious. We chose Tandoori Salmon as our main dish: it was tender, prepared perfectly. We enjoyed a Southern Indian Dosa as well, its thin crepe-like wrapping being perfect to highlight the filling. Service was attentive but not overwhelming.

I’ve been patronizing this restaurant for years and went multiple times a week for the lunch buffet. It was the best deal in town at around $10. Selection was great and everything was hot and fresh. This was of course pre Covid. They have discontinued the buffet since then. I’ve been back for dinner on occasions but haven’t had the same experience. Much more expensive and portions are small. I’ve also had some dishes that were so salty I couldn’t even eat them. Definitely inconsistent. I feel like this place should bring back the lunch buffet as things are back to normal. Would definitely come back more often. (Traducido por Google) He sido cliente de este restaurante durante años y fui varias veces a la semana para el almuerzo buffet.

He vuelto a cenar en ocasiones, pero no he tenido la misma experiencia. Mucho más caro y las porciones son pequeñas. También he tenido algunos platos que estaban tan salados que ni siquiera podía comerlos. Definitivamente inconsistente.

What a pleasant experience in August 2022 Ordering Indian food is usually hit or miss for Desi palettes because we tend to be very picky about flavors of our daals, and vegs, and masallas. As a rule, it's impossible to order a bunch of different dishes (we had several different entrées and have all of them turn out okay. Today, however, was a brilliant exception to this rule. Every single one of our Entrées was exceptionally tasty. Bombay Bistro has completely upped there post-covid game. Even if you had tried their place before and thought meh, please go back and give this place another go! We had Lamb Saag, Chicken Chittinad, Daal, butter chicken, and Lamb Biryani—every single one of these was yummy. The depth and the notes of the essence of each dish were superlatively highlighted.

Cada uno de nuestros platos principales fue excepcionalmente sabroso. Bombay Bistro ha mejorado completamente su juego post-covid. Incluso si había probado su lugar antes y pensó meh, ¡por favor regrese y pruebe este lugar otra vez! Teníamos Lamb Saag, Chicken Chittinad, Daal, pollo con mantequilla y Lamb Biryani, cada uno de estos estaba delicioso. Se destacó superlativamente la profundidad y las notas de la esencia de cada plato. Bien hecho amigos.

Great experience and food. Beautiful interior and good service. A little bit pricey for what you get, but worth it. (Traducido por Google) Gran experiencia y comida. Hermoso interior y buen servicio. Un poco caro para lo que obtienes, pero vale la pena.

My family’s been coming here for years now!! We live about 20-30 minutes away but we still choose Bombay Bistro over other Indian restaurants that are closer because of how amazing it is. The food is incredible and the portions are of decent size! You really do get your moneys worth. The staff is also very kind! If I give Bombay Bistro more stars I would. This is the place to go for authentic Indian food! (Traducido por Google) ¡Mi familia ha estado viniendo aquí durante años! Vivimos a unos 20-30 minutos, pero aún elegimos Bombay Bistro sobre otros restaurantes indios que están más cerca por lo increíble que es. ¡La comida es increíble y las porciones son de tamaño decente! Realmente obtienes el valor de tu dinero. ¡El personal también es muy amable! Si le doy a Bombay Bistro más estrellas, lo haría. ¡Este es el lugar ideal para disfrutar de la auténtica comida india!

Friendly service, but extremely overpriced, mediocre food. Seems catered to the “American” palate, so it’s not authentic and quality is questionable - go to Chennai Hoppers instead! (Traducido por Google) Servicio amable, pero extremadamente caro, comida mediocre. Parece estar dirigido al paladar "estadounidense", por lo que no es auténtico y la calidad es cuestionable: ¡vaya a Chennai Hoppers en su lugar!

The food was fine, but the service and ambiance were poor. They seem to give more preference to GrubHub orders than to dine-in customers. Our appetizer took 45 minutes and the entrees took another 45 minutes. The waiter did not stop by to refill water and forgot to bring us plates and serving spoons. Furthermore, the kitchen was open, and we could see that the chefs were not wearing hairnets. No music and very little decor. Would not recommend dining in. (Traducido por Google) La comida estaba bien, pero el servicio y el ambiente eran malos. Parecen dar más preferencia a los pedidos de GrubHub que a los clientes que cenan en el lugar. Nuestro aperitivo tardó 45 minutos y los platos principales tardaron otros 45 minutos. El camarero no se detuvo a rellenar el agua y se olvidó de traernos platos y cucharas para servir. Además, la cocina estaba abierta y pudimos ver que los chefs no usaban redecillas para el cabello. Sin música y muy poca decoración. No recomendaría cenar allí.

I've been a patron of this of this place for about the past 20 years. The wait staff is so easy to deal with and the food IMO, is always high quality. We been for meals - ordering from the menu and buffet and the selection of items for buffet is fresh and tasty - not over done or less quality. I love going here. It's easily accessible and there's plenty of parking. (Traducido por Google) He sido patrocinador de este lugar durante los últimos 20 años. Los camareros son muy fáciles de tratar y la comida, en mi opinión, siempre es de alta calidad.

Es de fácil acceso y hay mucho espacio para aparcar.

We have been going to Bombay Bistro for many years - both in-restaurant dining and takeout. It is our favorite Indian restaurant in the area. It is one of the places we like to take out-of-town guests. We often order one meat (frequently a chicken dish - but lamb dishes are good too) and one vegetarian dish (aloo chole and aloo gobhi are among our favorites). The vegetable samosas (served with three different chutneys) are yummy! The dough layer is light and flavorful, complementing the peas/potatoes filling. The naan is delicious as well. We find the flavors of the various dishes to be robust and deep. The owners and staff are excellent to interact with. They are unfailingly pleasant and friendly, even when they seem to be at maximum capacity. They keep a close eye on the dining room and are attentive to the tables all being at different points in their meals. During the pandemic we have switched only to take-out, but have been pleased with both how well the food is packed for travel, and their overall attention to public health precautions. They also added a permanent outdoor dining area, which looks very nice.

Consistently wonderful food near the Rockville Town Square. Ownership holds the entire team to a very high standard which is clear in both the quality of the food and the service. To better serve those of us who can’t live without the dine-in experience, an outdoor dining space was added. The city said it was supposed to be temporary but my family and I love it so much that we will petition to keep it if it comes to that. Spices on the veggie samosas are perfect every time by the way. Please go support this wonderful establishment. (Traducido por Google) Comida consistentemente maravillosa cerca de Rockville Town Square. La propiedad mantiene a todo el equipo en un nivel muy alto que es claro tanto en la calidad de la comida como en el servicio. Para servir mejor a aquellos de nosotros que no podemos vivir sin la experiencia de cenar, se agregó un espacio para comer al aire libre. La ciudad dijo que se suponía que sería temporal, pero mi familia y yo lo amamos tanto que solicitaremos mantenerlo si se trata de eso. Por cierto, las especias en las samosas de verduras siempre son perfectas. Por favor, ve a apoyar este maravilloso establecimiento.
