This place is delicious! Definitely will come back when I'm in Cleveland again. Hole in the wall place (so if you are looking for a fancy place don't come here). Employees are nice. The picture may not see like a lot of food but it filled me up. I did ask for it spicy but it wasn't that spicy. Price is like any other place, paid $20 for all in picture read more

Really good! Everyone coming back from Cleveland went there. It was busy, but service was great; no messed up orders even with many people:) Good vibes, kept on running into familiar people, giving a chance to connect with friends and meet many more new people. Definitely recommend this place to everyone. read more

People at this restaurant are very rude and not customer friendly. There is no parking and they do not help dashers at all and make them wait. Food is not packed well and spills. Getting a refund is not possible, and they don't seem to be truthful or try to resolve . DO NOT order online read more

Quality of naan and the curries were amazing . Both Naan and Tandoori Roti were good.

I don't leave reviews all like that but this food was amazing the last time I had Indian food was Indian delight and this was levels above that The portions and quality of the food was very amazing it was a little expensive but I will buy again read more

Subpar food. The Naan was too thick and the meat in the curry or noodles didnt seem fresh. Was chewy and unpleasant to eat. Unfortunately our visit was disappointing. The restaurant is in downtown, so plan for the parking situation ahead. read more

Bombay Chaat - Chicken Noodles, Chicken 65, Chicken curry, Naan - Indian Near Me - Cleveland, Ohio

Amazing food. We usually do take out from here if we want Indian - I have loved everything we've tried so far.

A little awkward being the only white guy in there but I'm not afraid to try new food so I waited out the line, talked to some nice peeps in line and got the scoop on the menu. I got the 3rd chicken option and butter pita bread. The chicken flavor was awesome, and the pita hit. Also got a mango milk drink, not as much of a fan but glad I tried it. read more

Bombay Chaat - Indian Near Me - Cleveland, Ohio

My husband chose this for his birthday dinner last weekend. We love Indian street food and this was the only place with Indian street food that we could find in Cleveland. You can order and pay over the phone when you get takeout so that's what we did. My parents, husband, and I all split a bunch of food. For starters we got Dahi Puri, Bombay Special Bhel, Samosa Chole, Samosas, and Gobi Manchurian. I loved the Dahi Puri, Bombay Special Bhel, and the Samosa Chole. We had to assemble the Dahi Puri and Bombay Special Bhel ourselves which I wasn't a fan of. I assume they do this so that it doesn't get soggy though. I usually love Gobi Manchurian, but theirs wasn't as good as others I've had. It was mushy and the sauce was different than what I've had elsewhere. For entrees we got Malai Kofta, Paneer Makhani, and Butter Chicken. I've never had Malai Kofta before, but it was by far my favorite. All three were good (although I always like paneer/veggie more than meat at Indian restaurants). We added cheese naan, garlic naan, and Onion Kulcha as well. The garlic naan was great as usual. I've never had Onion Kulcha before and I loved it. The cheese naan was disappointing. It didn't really taste like it had any cheese. If you've never had Indian street food, you definitely need to try it! This place was delicious and I would highly recommend it. read more

If you're a fan of Indian street food as much as I am then you're in for a treat with Bombay Chaat. My family and I enjoyed many of their dishes this past weekend to celebrate my 29th birthday. I would recommend everything we shared but I'll limit the list to the best of the best. I recommend trying: Paneer Makhani Malai Kofta Bombay Special Bhel read more

First of all, their ordering system is THE WORST of all the time. They want you to place an order online and there you have to provide them with all your personal information like Name, address and credit card information. Credit card alone Carries all your personal information. Would you give all your personal details to a restaurant just for the sake of one order which you can place in other restaurants JUST BY CALLING THEM OVER THE PHONE. I find that very odd and ridiculous. I know restaurants can make you good money if it's busy one But do you know what makes you the most money and what is the most expensive thing in the world " PERSONAL DATA" Like the exact same details that these people ask you when you want to place an order. Second thing. The cost cutting technique. Recently I started noticing that this restaurant is charging extra and giving very less food compare to other restaurants. They are making fool of everyone who goes there and I am sure they laugh at their own customers because they are ripping them off and thinking of themselves as very SMART people. Shame on this restaurant's owners. read more

Bombay Chaat - Nasty food and very low quantity - Indian Near Me - Cleveland, Ohio

Food: Fantastic! Price: $10-$17 Atmosphere: Mom and Pop Cafeteria Overall: Highly Recommend (but call in) Bombaay Chaat is one of my favorite Indian Restaurants in Cleveland. The food has never been anything below great in regard to taste, but their wait time is excessive. I've had to wait 40 minutes before for my food. If you plan to eat here, make sure to call ahead for the order or you will be a while. My go to order is usually the somosa with Chicken Tikka Masala. This time I got the Dahi Puri and Chicken Tikka Masala. The appetizers here are also really overpriced in my opinion. As you can see, the Dahi Puri are simply lightly puffed puris (that you have to fill in yourself) that taste great, but cost $5.49. The sauces at this place are out of this world good which might be where the cost is incurred but still not worth it. The Chicken Tikka Masala sauce here is some of the best I've ever tried. It comes in 4 spice levels and I've found the "spicy" level gives good heat while still pairing well with the cream based sauce. I also usually only go with Chicken here for anything because the lamb and goat are more like pressed cubes. Overall, this Indian spot is great for a call in and pick up. It provides fantastic tasting Indian food to a fairly central spot downtown. Would highly recommend to anyone. read more

The butter chicken is phenomenal. It was too spicy even though I asked for it mild, but otherwise it's rich creamy texture wasn't watered down and it was rife with fresh spices. Absolutely delicious. The egg masala dosa was dry and plain. The ka halwa was hot but sort of plain as well. read more

This is one of my favorite Indian places in Cleveland! They have a wide variety of food on their menu from South Indian to chaat to North Indian foods. Their lunch buffet is particularly good (although only available on weekdays) with a decent variety of options. My husband and I have been here 10+ times in the past year. The menu is extensive so there is something for everyone. And as a plus the decor is really well done inside too! The attention to detail on the decor is impressive- there's clocks with Cleveland time and Mumbai time and they have a mini skyline on them that matches the theme of the restaurant! Things we have enjoyed: many of the North Indian curries (paneer tikka, palak paneer, kadai paneer, bhindi), chaat items (ragada patties, samosa chole, papdi chaat), South Indian (masala dosa, medu vada) A note about their service: the manager and the staff really seem to care that customers are satisfied. This is a place where you order at the counter and pick up your meal from the counter. One time, they had run out of a particular item we had wanted to order, so we ordered something else. By the time we were finishing our meal, the manager came up to us and brought us another item complimentary for the inconvenience. read more

Bombay Chaat - Panipuri - Indian Near Me - Cleveland, Ohio

First and foremost: the food is delicious. I had the goat vindaloo, samosas, and naan. The meat was well cooked, but still had some bone fragments - not a problem for me, but something to be aware of when dining. Although the dining area is comparable to many quick service restaurants; the walls are well decorated, but it feels pretty empty. Plates are paper. Price is fantastic and portions are good. Basically a perfect place to stop for a meal, but not to take someone out for a date night. read more

Yum!!! This was our 2nd time here and it didn't disappoint. There are so many vegetarian options which is great. The dosas are my favorite part. We got the masala dosa with medium spice and it was perfect. Their garlic naan was so yummy with fresh garlic and herbs. Portion sizes are good. Prices are super reasonable. I'm jealous of all the CSU students who have this right on their campus. Perfect for a chilly fall day. We will be back! read more

It was late, I was hungry and they were open. I left full but I probably wouldn't come back. Everything I had was meh at best and it wasn't exactly inexpensive either. But they were open so at least they had that going for them. read more

Wide array of Indian dishes offered here, from curries to dosas to biryani and more! If you live anywhere near downtown, then you prob already know Bombay is the spot for Indian street food and I won't even talk about their butter chicken, tikka masala, or chicken korma since there are more than enough reviews on how good these curry dishes are, but lemme put you on to the bomb Tandoori Chicken! Roasted to perfectly tender and juicy deliciousness in a gingery garlic mirepoix with just the right amount of fire - don't sleep on their tandoor menu! Can't wait to come back post COVID and try the diverse lunch buffet everyone raves about : ) read more

Bombay Chaat - Chicken Korma and Tandoori Chicken with Mint Chutney - Indian Near Me - Cleveland, Ohio

This was a very satisfying meal! The menu is extensive in the types of Dosas, curries, info-Chinese dishes, and appetizers available. You order at the counter before picking a table and your order will be called when ready. This is definitely a really casual place with disposable dish ware. The prices are all under 11$ and portions are huge! They have lunch buffet everyday as well. The menu does not have descriptions of each dish, so be sure to have google handy! Service was quick and efficient! read more

I ordered the Cholle Bhature and the immediately came back the next day to order it again because it is that tasty. You have to go up to the counter, order your food, pay, and find a seat. They will call your order up when it is ready. You can also call them ahead of time to place an order for pickup if you don't want to seat inside. The cholle bhature is chickpeas served with puri (deep fried bread). I wanted to eat something vegetarian so this was a perfect choice. I first heard about this menu item after my roommate, who is Indian. She told me about ordering the Cholle Bhature and how she loved it. I've had chickpeas before and I've eaten different types of Indian breads before at other Indian restaurants. The chickpeas was very well seasoned and the bread was super soft. I got the chickpeas mild but you can also order it spicy if you want. My friend and her husband ordered the Chicken Biryani and they loved it. Also, when I ordered this same menu item again, I realised that the chickpeas has little pieces of onions inside and I hate onions but I still managed to love what I ate. I'll probably order a rice dish next time. When I ate inside the restaurant (on Friday, 22 June 2017), I was treated to dinner by a friend who was visiting from Chicago. We both got the Masala tea and she mentioned how the tea was one of the best she has had recently. I thought the tea tasted fine actually but that's because I needed sugar inside which the servers didn't add (no problem). The inside is quite large and there is a beautiful painting inside with the words "Bombay Chaat" written on it. I recommend this place. Everything was so delicious and service was good. This is my 125th Yelp review overall. 79 reviews for 2018. I am aiming for 100 reviews in 2018. Reviewed on 26 June 2018. read more

Best Indian street food near downtown! This place was recommended to me and my husband from one of our classmates and we have been coming here at least 1x per month ever since - we live downtown so it is dangerous to be so close ;) The chicken tikka, biryani, dosa, samosas, naan, mango lassi are our favorites. We have ordered online since COVID and it is still great as a takeaway read more

Great Food - Super Slow Service! We waited for over 40 minutes for our food. Go there during off peak time. read more

Bombay Chaat - Chicken tikka Roll - Indian Near Me - Cleveland, Ohio

they have a mice infestation and they know it. it was in their cashier area walking around as if everything was okay.

Man, I'm so conflicted about Bombay Chaat. On my first few visits, I truly thought I found a place that I would visit regularly here in Cleveland. The Pepper Chicken is my go-to and I continue to stand by that. It's spicy (like actually spicy, not just a few dashes of ground pepper) and coats your tongue with a wonderful flavor. Their buffet (which I assume has been nixed in this post-COVID era) was mediocre to me. Like all buffets, you know what you're signing up for--sure you're going to get a wide array of food selections, but at the cost of freshness. If that's your cup of tea, than more power to you! All that being said, on the last few visits to Bombay Chaat, my friends and I noticed the glaring decrease in service quality. Oftentimes, we are waiting 20-25 min for food which is magnitudes longer than the wait times previously. I wish I could give this place a higher review since I truly do believe the food is downright tasty, but the decline in the quality of service unfortunately cannot be overlooked. read more

Wanted so much to like this place. Big disappointment. I had the Idli and Rava combo along with veg samosas. The soup with the Idli was flavorless as was the coconut sauce. Unfortunately I couldn't enjoy the rava or samosas since the oil they fried it in was both burnt and rancid. The Samosas were filled with the rancid oil, utterly revolting. The mint chutney for the samosas was old or poor quality jarred, not sure which. Also, the seating is beyond uncomfortable so I ate outside on a bench. These two orders were $17 with out a drink!!!!! Threw it all in trash so I would get ill. Also....they no longer have lunch buffet. read more

I've gotten food poisoning twice after eating here, and the only common factor was Bombay Chat. I suspect they're leaving ingredients like potatoes out for too long, potentially leading to bacterial contamination. Be cautious if dining here, as food safety seems to be an issue read more

Skip by all means. Ordered Rava dosa, Bhaji puri and egg fried rice. This had to be the worst dosa of my life, soggy and drenched in oil. I requested less salt but the fried rice had so much salt. Dirty and sticky. Please skip. read more

I love this place and is my go-to place after exams or whenever I just want to celebrate with good food. Their lunch buffet is amazing and very well priced at $10. They have an assortment of various Indian dishes for buffet along with hot naan. At times the buffet can be pretty busy which means that naan is in high demand so I'd sit closer to the buffet during these times to have easy access to the food. I've also been for dinner and although a little bit pricier, it's worth it because the quality of the food is better and you can adjust the spice level more accordingly. The garlic naan is also killer and I get it every time with my meal. Usually I order the mutter paneer which is one of my absolute favorites. The portions are also very generous and I usually have enough to take home. I'm a huge indian food fan and have tried a few places around Cleveland. Bombay Chaat has my heart so I'd highly recommend coming here. It's also right next to the Healthline for people who don't have cars (AKA me last year) so Bombay Chaat is easily accessible for everyone. read more

The butter chicken was amazing! This place knows what amazing food is. I can agree it needs more chicken but I'm definitely coming back to this place. read more

We ate here on the way to the State Theater before a show. I love Indian food, so I was happy to find this place, but it was just okay. We dined in and had the korma and butter chicken with some garlic naan. The korma was ok but left a greasy aftertaste, and was also more sauce than chicken. The naan was decent. The bowls could also be bigger (hard to eat without making a mess) and the tables could be cleaner. read more

I called in and asked if they were doing buffet and the guy told me twice that they were I then asked if they're doing it now and he said they were. Drove to the restaurant and got told they're not doing buffet. No one seemed even the least bit apologetic for lying multiple times. read more

I'm a pain when it comes to eating Indian food at a restaurant because I'm so used to home cooking (thanks mom!) but this is one of the closest to authentic Indian street food (chaat) that I've ever had! Ambience- located right on Cleveland states campus, this is a casual joint that simulates what you would find in India when you go out for snacks. The tables were not super clean when we went in considering how dead it was at 3pm on a Saturday (maybe from the lunch rush) but the staff was prompt with cleaning when we asked them. Service- the people behind the counter are helpful and familiar with the menu. It's all self service so once you order they will call your number and you have to go to the counter to pick up your food. Food- we ordered the veggie Hakka noodles which were light and fresh tasting- the noodles themselves are a bit thicker than the typical dish but the flavor was on point. The samosa chaat was the best savory snack- crunchy samosa filled with potatoes and peas, with a chick pea curry on the side. The pav bhaji was very authentic as well. The best thing about it was that they aren't afraid to spice it up to your standard- I'm used to flaming hot Indian food and Bombaychaat delivers just that (if you want it). Obviously I had to top all this off with a mango lassi (traditional yogurt based drink) which was not overly sweet and the exact right thickness. Pricing is very reasonable for all their dishes. So glad I found a spot in Cleveland to get my Indian food fix! read more

$35 for a dosa, aloo tiki, and samosa. And everything was as gross as this greasy, inedible samosa. Idk what happened here. I used to like the place. They said no chat was available, as the name suggests. The served chat to the group after us, saying "they are special". The most disgusting "Indian" food I've ever had in my life. Used to be a regular, but will never be back. Totally inedible read more
