Malai kofta
Shabbir S.

Moderately well interior, good service but some items in the menu falls short on quality, especially when comparing price vs quality. We had beef samosas, malai kofta, aloo parantha and butter nan. I'll rate them between 3 to 4 stars, especially where the samosas and aloo parantha has scope to improve. Limited parking available in front of the restaurant in the plaza's private lot.

We heard about this place from a friend and my wife wanted Indian food and we could not have been happier with the restaurant. We went on a Thursday and it was not very busy. They were doing renovations and are moving across the street but the ambiance was nice and helped with the vibe of the restaurant. The owner was our server and he was very nice and gave us the suggestions of what to order as we did not know. Everything was spot on, samosas and butter chicken were amazing. I do not give 5 stars often but this place deserves it, could be the best Indian food in Richmond Hill area. The food took some time but not too long and was worth the wait. We spent about $85 between 2 people but had another meals worth to take home. Check this place out!

The butter chicken here is delicious. This is the best butter chicken I've had in a long time. We had an order of "doubles" too. It was yummy too. The restaurant's decor is modern and welcoming. Perfect lighting for a nice dinner. The staff are friendly and efficient. Can't wait to back.

Mango Paneer

Time for an update. I have not been back since 2016. After having a less than stellar meal, I wrote a review and that was that. I recently went back to try their food again. Nothing better than dining family style with new friends. That way you get to try so many dishes that a single diner can not do. Over the last couple of years, I have been to various Indian places and have developed a wider palate than just Chicken Tikka Masala. I discovered that if done right, I really like Curry Goat and various forms of curry with paneer. We ordered a bevy of items and instead of going through all of them, let me key in on just a few. Fusion lovers - there was Butter Chicken Poutine. Note that you only get the curry, no chicken pieces on this order. Basically golden fries, yummy curds, drenched in their most popular curry. Have to say, it is truly addictive. Mango Paneer - say what? Take mango and make a curry out of it and serve it with chunks of paneer? Why not? Sweet and savoury meets and it's quite a pleasing dish. Curry Goat - bone in. There are two ways to make it. Bone in and bone out...simple. I like it bone in as the bone and marrow adds significant flavour to the curry. Some like to dig out the marrow - to each their own. This was my favourite dish of the night. After the meal, I got speaking with Raj - the owner. Spoke about my 2016 experience and why I decided to not frequent his establishment. Keep in mind, this place has been in his family since the beginning - I can hazard to say around 25 years. He spoke about how ingredients affect his meals. He uses fresh tomatoes to make his tomato based curries, not cans. This adds an element of risk as consistency could have been a problem. All in all, a very pleasant converation. Bombay Bhel is back on my list of restaurants. In fact, if it wasn't for this wicked windstorm and rain outside, I might have made it out for a pickup! Cheers!

The waitress was very friendly and suggested new drinks/dishes they had on their menu. I went during lunch hours, it wasn't busy at all as we were the only customers. Overall, food was just mediocre.

Spinach paneer samosas

How awesome to finally find a place with decent curry and butter chicken nearby!! It's a very spacious restaurant and honestly I found the service to be a bit slow. There were only about 4 other tables with us. But the food was good and they have a pretty good menu offering. We went with the spinach and paneer samosas. They were bite size and I actually really really enjoyed those! I could devour the entire basket. Then i got butter chicken and garlic naan. :) It was very strong tomatoes flavor and just the right amount of cream! My only recommendation is to make it just a smidge less sweet. But otherwise, it was yummy! Prices were okay. I think a bit higher than expected for the value but that's just an opinion. Over all good for a nice quiet dinner. I can't wait to come back :)

Stapler pin
Ashima S.

I wouldn't give this place Any rating. I found a stapler pin in my food which I and my child consumed when I bought this to the notice of the management they could say or do nothing I feel highly threatened by the quality of the service and the food that was served to me! I am feeling super anxious because I consumed 90% of the Bhel. I discovered this when I was already on my way back home I drove out 20 minutes To register this complaint with the restaurant and All that they could do was blame it on their suppliers! Horrible horrible experience would not recommend this place to anyone even in hell!

Beautiful tikka masala
Randy K.

I am a frequent eater at Bombay Bhel. It's no accident. Bombay Bhel has been a frequent go to stop for me for years. Their secret is consistently delicious food that knocks it out of the park. I come here for meetings, to visit friends, and for the last several months as a frequent source of take out. Today, I had the quinoa\chana salad with Chicken tikka and paneer. Normally who's would have just been chicken. Having had it, I would stick with the chicken. The quinoa was served with chickpeas and Dahl nestled among green onions, tomatoes, olive oil, and fresh lemon juice. The chicken tikka was most. The contrast of the quinoa/Chaka with lemon juice with fresh tandoori cooked white chicken is hard to forget. I already want it again. White meat can be very dry and can distract from a nice meal. This was the meal that broke that mold! No dryness, and a beautiful blending of multiple flavours. All that and healthy. Not that this was the selling point for me, but I got to feel smug in the fact that I had a healthy meal that left me feeling satisfied. This was a whole meal and very satisfying, and the best part, if you need to eat gluten free, this dish fits the bill. I hope that this is on the table when I get to have my next Indian food party!

Garlic Naan! Very yummy - highly recommend :D
Claudia K.

I love coming here whenever I have a craving for butter chicken! The reason for this is because I like it just the way they make it. I did notice that some other reviewers mentioned the sauce being on the sweeter side which I agree with, but for me, that aspect doesn't count against its tastiness for me personally! [Butter Chicken] $16.99 - This dish is a tomato-based one that is creamy! It is not spicy at all. Although the dish it is served in looks rather small, there are actually a lot more chunks of chicken in the sauce than meets the eye! I shared this one main with my friend and between the two of us, we thought it was a fair amount of meat for just ordering one dish. [Garlic Naan] $3.99 - this is essentially flatbread that I believe they make in house. Definitely go for the garlic option when ordering naan because it is extremely flavorful and pairs really well with the butter chicken sauce! [Raita] $3.99 - This is essentially a yogurt dish that is similar to tzatziki! I ordered this for my friend because she is horrible at being able to eat spicy foods. Luckily for her though, the butter chicken, was not spicy at all. I did tell her that in advance but just in case, I ordered the raita if she really did find the butter chicken sauce spicy. Regardless, it also pairs really well with the aforementioned dishes! The only thing that I'd recommend this restaurant have a look at is the wait times between ordering and receiving the food. I came here with a friend I haven't seen in over a year so we didn't really mind having all that time to talk before the food came. I can understand, however, that if you were just coming her for a regular meal, the wait time would be considered outrageously long. I think we waited for over half an hour to forty five minutes before the butter chicken and naan arrived. We also had to remind the waiter more than twice about the fact that our raita hadn't come yet and we were already more than halfway through our meal... Other than that, the service was friendly but again, it can definitely be seen as a downside regarding how long it takes for food to be served! I would still recommend this place but maybe only for takeout to ensure that I can get my delicious food immediately :D

The taste was surprisingly good, favour was really in-depth and fresh to the taste. For sure i was not expecting it to be, base in the restaurant is nearly empty for the most part. On a Sunday night only 3 tables we sited besides us.

Alo gobi, paneer butter masala, vegetable biryani, raita and naan. All packaged perfectly for takeout.
Far K.

We ordered here for take out very last min and they were able to accommodate our order. Again, I stress that Indian food in Toronto is difficult to find. I'm still on the search for my go to Indian restaurant. However, I had a very good experience at Bombay angel from overall ordering process to the very nice customer service. If you order online you can customize the spice level of your dishes and each main entree comes with a side of naan or rice. We ordered vegetable biryani, paneer butter masala and alo gobi. The biryani was very tasty and not crazy spicy so you can enjoy the flavors. It comes with a side of raita which was excellent. Together it was delicious. The paneer was amazing, definitely one of the best paneer butter masala I had in the city. The creamy sauce and amounts of bite size paneer was mouth watering. The last dish the alo gobi was okay, mostly because it was filled with more gobi than alo, and has a cumin after taste. The naan was fluffy and perfect. Regardless, everything together tasted wonderful. The portion sizes are huge and the packaging is great. I will definitely be ordering from here and would love to try new dishes. I would give this place a try! The customer service is friendly and nice.

Garlic naan
Tiffany L.

I came in on a Tuesday around 745 as a group of 4 and was seated in one of the booths. The interior of the place is quite nice and modern, the booths were pretty comfortable for four people and the table was large enough to accommodate all the food. The server was attentive and prompt with the orders and water refills. Our groups started off with the Spinach Samosas (3.5/5), these were fried golden and had a good amount of filling inside, the sauce was plum? the sauce was just okay, and I found the samosa nothing spectacular... but it's spinach so I don't want to judge too hard. For our mains, we got: Chicken Biryani with Curry (4/5) The rice was nice and fluffy, the flavours blended very well and had a good amount of chicken in it. The curry that came with it was a tad bland though. Butter Chicken (4/5) Really good butter chicken, the heat was nice and the curry was slightly sweet, went really well with the garlic naan. They were very generous with the chicken, there were tons and tons of chicken chunks in the bowl. Goat Curry (5/5) oh yesssssssssss, this had to be the best thing we ordered. Like you NEED to get this. I don't know how to cook goat but I'm gonna start because I NEED to learn how to make this divine curry. The meat was tender and the aromatics of this curry from the goat make it so so so good. I don't even know how to explain how good this is. Please get this curry. Paneer tikka Masala (SKIP 2/5) So so sad that this was no good. I love love love paneer, but this paneer just didn't have the right texture, tikka masala was really bland and it was more oily than I would have liked. I would skip this dish. Garlic Naan & Regular Naan (4/5) I am no naan expert but these were all pretty soft and had a nice bite to them. I wasn't crazy about the garlic naan, but it went well with the butter chicken, so I would recommend it to try once? I would stick to the regular naan though. Overall, I had a really enjoyable dinner here and I'm STILL thinking about that goat curry, I'll be back to try their lollipop chicken and lamb offerings.

I had the pleasure of going here for a family dinner, and I'm really glad we chose this place to eat! Dum Pukht is beautiful decorated with a dark ambiance inside. Lots of seating available, would suggest making a reservation ahead of time to ensure you get seated immediately upon arrival as it can be quite busy. The staff were also super kind and explained all the dishes while also providing alternatives too! We ordered several items off the menu because there was a huge selection to choose from! We started with the Crispy Cheese Balls (9/10 Absolutely delicious and crispy), Tibetian Momo's (7/10 was a little too spicy for my liking), and the Chaat (6/10 on the sweeter end but still good). For the main dishes we ordered some Garlic Naan (10/10 probably one of the best naan's ever), Paneer Tikka Masala (9/10 creamy and delicious), Chicken Vindaloo (8/10 spicy and very flavourful) and lastly the Dum Vegetable Biryani (7/10 a lot of vegetables inside). Overall was such a pleasant experience, also their portion sizes are huge so you really don't need to order a lot if you are coming as a small group. I would highly recommend you come check out Dum Pukht in Markham! 9/10 Recommend!

These were little pockets of crispy wafers topped with chickpeas, diced potatoes and yogurt sauce. It came with 2 sauces to pour into the chat which were mint and tamarind sauce. Loved this! It was a flavour burst in your mouth! Butter Chicken 5/5 - Chicken breast marinated overnight with yogurt and spices. Loved the cream butter tomatoey sauce and paired perfectly with the garlic naan. Can't wait to have this again. Dum-Phukht Biryani 4/5 - This came beautifully presented and opened table side. Thought there was a lot of chicken in there which was nice! Rogan Josh 5/5 - This was hearty and delicious with the lamb. Slow simmered in a rich spiced gravy sauce. Definitely would get this again! Flavourful and spicy. Mixed grill 5/5 - Thought this was a nice mix of meats to share with the table. Came on a grilled platter. Overall, great dining experience and food was fantastic. Only complaints was the waiting time and the super dark interior. Definitely worth a try and will be back for more Indian eats!

I would definitely recommend as there so many different type of curries and hakka dishes to try. Staff was also very friendly. It was late into the evening when I came in and ordered takeout and waited. The staff made small talk with me while I waited and even voided the tip, which is rare in the service industry these days.
