Good stuff @ Tandoori Chicken w/ Garlic Naan. Comes with Chutney sauces on the side. Garlic Naan could be a bit more garlicky. Chicken was fresh and uber flavorful. I def. recommend.

Looking for DELICIOUS Indian food? Look no further! Bombay Cafe is a staple in Oakland Park, I remember seeing this restaurant as a kid and then enjoying it in my late teens to an adult. The food and service are incredible. Recently did take out and the Chicken Tandoori is perfectly cooked in a clay pot, the Lamb Vindaloo is tender, flavorful and spicy! We got it medium and it gave me the forehead and nose sweats -- but not complaints! It was everything we wanted!

Meal with rice and naan

My husband and I were big fans of this restaurant when it was on Andrews Avenue (and I worked nearby). We lost track of it and just discovered its new location in Oakland Park. We went for lunch on a Monday and were the only diners for the hour or so we were there. The place is large, seating at least 80. And servers are very attentive. We had the 1/2 chicken tandoori and the lamb kadhai, both medium spicy. And of course, an order of naan. The dishes were brought to our table by the chef with the tandoori sizzling and the kadhai hot. They were accompanied by rice and a tray of four different sauces. (My favorite is always the tamarind chutney. I especially like it on my naan, after the meal, as a sweet treat.) The tandoori was tasty and moist. The kadhai was a wee bit dry and a tad salty. Nevertheless, the flavors still were good with thin strips of ginger used as a garnish on top. There is no buffet and no lunch menu. The meal with 2 entrees and an order of naan with tax and tip was $47. Be warned: There is a more than 3% surcharge to use a credit card. Since they were charging more than we would make from the credit card for the purchase, and we had just enough cash, we opted to pay with cash.

Went on a friday afternoon around 1:30. The place was empty but the guy tended to us right away and helped us choose a plate. The food didnt take long and was absolutely delicious!!! Would recommend.

Went to Bombay Cafe for the first time yesterday and I think I found my new fav Indian restaurant! The food was absolutely delicious and arrived hot. The food looked so good, I totally forgot to take pictures of the entrees I got (paneer bhurji and palak kofta). I have a hard time finding a good Indian restaurant because many times I feel as if the various gravies taste the same or have a lot of sweetness added however, this was not the case for Bombay cafe. Each entree had a distinct taste and was packed with flavor. Will be going back to try some more options. The restaurant itself was reasonably priced as well. The staff were friendly.

For those who used to go to their old location on Andrews Avenue (I never did and their sign is still up there), this will be a bit of a change. It's now on the south side of Oakland Park Bvd where the former Peruvian restaurant was located. Parking is easy out front. There's no real ambiance inside here, but you won't miss it. There's no lunch buffet (which they used to have) and no separate lunch menu. They have the same menu for lunch and dinner. That being said, what we ordered was wonderfully delicious. My husband got their lamb Rogan Josh. I ordered their chicken tikka masala. Both come with white rice. And he added an order of garlic naan. Both entrees came out piping hot with the tenderest chunks of meat in their savory sauces. The server hadn't asked for a spice level. The rogan josh was a tad more peppery than the tikka masala. Both had a depth of spices, however. We both really liked our meals. My husband had about a third left and took it home. I had eaten all the chicken in mine, but also took the sauce home along with some leftover rice. (We added some more meat to the sauces and had it again for dinner that night). So glad we got to try this restaurant. And sorry we didn't come sooner to their former location.

This location is a big change from their former place on N. Andrews. It has a much more open and modern feel, and the place looks spotless. Based on their new website, we came on Wednesday for their daily luncheon buffet. We were disappointed there was no buffet, and the waiter even claimed it doesn't say so (we had to show it to him). Lunch and dinner apparently uses the same menu and prices. There is a pretty large selection of Indian vegan, vegetarian and meat dishes, and even Indo-Chinese. I selected Lamb Vindaloo and my two friends both ordered Tandoori Chicken. The vindaloo was creamy, tasty and just the right amount of spice and heat. The lamb chunks were cooked nice and tender. The chicken came in sizzling platters. The white pieces were bit dry, but the dark pieces were perfect. The naan was great, and the condiment assortment added to the enjoyment of the meal. While we didn't get a buffet, we did get fresh made-to-order dishes and not over-cooked food in steamers.

Pre Covid are used to go when they were at the other location on Andrews Avenue. This is the first time I ate at the new location on Oakland Park Boulevard. The food was absolutely superb. I had the lamb vindaloo to perfection. And ordered whole wheat roti bread. Whatever order here I always love the meal. it's kind of sad that they no longer have the Buffet. That used to be the staple for lunch and on weekends. Nevertheless, this place has superb, genuine Indian food which I highly recommend you try.

Located on Oakland Park Blvd just before the bridge to the Intracoastal in a strip shopping center with plenty of free parking. I had a reservation and we were seated immediately. The service was excellent. Our waiter was so attentive. The menu has a nice selection of chicken, lamb, seafood, and vegetarian. There are even some vegan choices too. When it comes to Indian food, I always order the tikka masala I am happy to report that I ventured out of my comfort zone and I am so happy I did. We ordered the Tandoori Chicken Tikka - a grilled chicken skewer cooked with so many delicious spices. I could taste the Garam masala with a little bit of Kashmir red chili pepper. Light and absolutely fabulous. Goan Prawns Kodi- jumbo shrimp cooked in a coconut based curry sauce with cumin, coriander, and tamarind. This was a vibrant curry and served with rice. The food was incredible. I can't wait to go back. FYI... it's also an InKind restaurant... double bonus!

The restaurant is so pretty, with a modern twist and upbeat music videos playing that add such a fun, lively energy.

Thank you, Dinesh and team, for making this such a memorable part of our anniversary weekend.

A tip should be the customer's choice based on the quality of service provided. If you are going to add a mandatory service charge, it should be clearly disclosed upfront. Instead, it was mentioned in a small corner where it was practically impossible to notice. Customers should not have to find out about an extra charge only after receiving the bill. Not transparent at all. I would recommend being very careful and checking the bill before paying.

You may try one time but nobody should be a returning customer. I don't know about other people but Indians for sure won't be going here again. Why? Let me explain. This is not a sit down restaurant and you are charging $20 just for noodles. There is hardly any vegetables or eggs in the noodles. One has to pay additional $6 for chicken, with tax that is a huge number. You can also pay additional for vegetables and eggs. You are going to charge for vegetables? Seriously !!! Well, I still paid this additional amount ($6 for chicken) but you guys were so stingy. You did not even give me chicken equivalent to one breast piece. Bell pepper was in guest appearance. Where were spring onions or onions ? If you want to succeed in this market especially with Indians you will have to give them good quality. This is not going to fly. $30 just to eat carbs is a lot. In $30 I can get nice chicken curry from Bombay darbar or other fancy Indian restaurant. I grew up in India eating this food so I know how it should be. You are on right track but don't be so stingy or else decrease your prices. Biryani may be one can try. They gave one leg and thigh piece and half boiled egg. So that is reasonable. Gave 3 star because of biryani. Sorry for leaving bad review but take this as a helpful feedback and fix quantity and high charges. $20 for noodles is enough.
