Bombay House

Accommodates everyone.

This is by far the best Indian food I've ever had. Whenever I travel I always try to eat some Indian food. From Mongolia to Europe to the East coast, this place beats them all.

My fiance went for the first time. She's allergic to ginger, which, turns out, is in every Indian dish. Daniel offered to cook up a dish just for her without it and it was absolutely amazing. They really do everything they can to make it a pleasant experience. Now we just call ahead before going so Daniel can make another wonderful dish for us. Truly the best there is.

• Pros: Food, service, food, ambience, food, food, food!
• Cons: Is pricey compared to other places, but well worth it to me.

You must experience this!

My wife and i were undecided what Indian restaurant we should go to because we don't eat Indian often. The reviews said the food at Bombay House was worth the money, but the service needed improvement.

I've got to say the service and the food were fantastic. We went in at 6:00 pm on Saturday night with our 19 month old daughter. Our waiter was very attentive. There were two or three other employees that checked on us throughout the meal as well. They were especially good with our little girl who was being a menace.

The food was AMAZING! I ordered the Chicken Tikka Masala and my wife ordered the Chicken Curry. They were both filled with the most incredible flavor. I even tried their Rose Milk which was different than anything i have ever had, but not bad at all.

I can't wait to go back and try some of the other recommendations they had.

Fabulous!

by juwaraba

This was my first experience with Indian food and I was blown away. Not only was the place beautiful, the server helpful and friendly, but the food was so wonderful I actually dreamed about it. It is a wonderful place for a wonderful meal.

• Pros: Ambience, service, food, everything!
• Cons: might be a little spicy for someone not used to spicy food

THE place to eat!

by mlcarey321

My wife and I recently went vegan, and a friend of mine who's back-and-forth vegan/vegetarian recommended Bombay House. So my wife and I checked it out today and it ROCKED! They have an extensive vegetarian selection, and those that aren't already vegan can usually be made vegan on request.

I don't have that much experience with Indian food, so I can't say anything about the authenticity, but the ambiance was excellent and the service was impeccable. This is especially significant considering how poor the service has been at most Utah restaurants I've patronized. The rice, Indian bread, and specialty drinks are delicious (my wife got the mango soy shake, so technically that's the only one I can testify of), and I would've tried their rice pudding if I wasn't already stuffed (next time I plan on taking more home so I have room for dessert).

We're moving at the end of April, but we're already planning on going back for my birthday and will try to go at least once after that. The parking's not great, but that's just downtown Provo, and we were able to park in the building's parking lot just by showing up at 6 instead of waiting until their busy time (7 and after). If you're ever in the vicinity of Provo, this place is a must!

• Pros: Ambience, Vegan, Vegetarian, Service, Food, Value
• Cons: Parking

Best Indian food in Utah

by sharpman

Bombay house is one of my favorite places to eat. The food is AMAZING, servers are friendly, and the management never forgets a face. When we can't decide where to eat, Bombay house is always where we end up. Wonderful!

• Pros: Good food, good price.

I Loved the Masala Chicken

by gene435

This place has great indian food. The saag is great. The Chicken Masala is awesome. Even the aromatic rice they serve with the meal is great. The restaurant seems family owned and the staff is always friendly.

• Pros: Really Good Food
• Cons: Not a lot of parking

Best Lamb Curry!

by aselvan

I have been to this restaurant few times in the past while visiting Provo and found the taste of food here was so so... until I had the Lamb Curry yesterday which is one of the most authentic (Madras Curry) I have ever had since I left Madras many years ago!. BTW: If you like madras curry order the "Lamb Curry" not "Lamb Madras" which is not what I recommend!. If you like indian bread, try garlic nan here which is also very good.

I LOVE THIS PLACE

by lacubana

The staff is great. Over the countless times I've eaten there I have never once had a bad meal. The Shrimp Tika Masala is my personal favorite. They typically only put mild, medium, or hot, but if you like hot food, I would request extra hot. the food is very flavorful and is great to do family style, or do like I do and eat a dish all by myself. The nan bread is fantastic and I love their rice. I would highly reccommend this place!!

• Pros: Inexpensive, Great food, Great Service

Zesty Indian cuisine in an atmosphere that rises above its strip-mall location.

Good - but not authentic

by ezs

It's excellent for Provo - but it's certainly tamed down from 'authentic' Indian food.

Nice touches - real Indian beer, chef who can make dishes to request. Challenge them with the Shah Jaharni Lamb one day.
