We were planning to try this place but never got a chance. I was in the area, so went in and ordered Samosas. It took them Atleast 10 mins i was hoping to see some fresh samosas. Samosas ended up being frozen/air fried or refried samosas. Taste was good but texture wise they were off. read more

BEST FOOD EVER! I have a lot of favorite Indian restaurants, but this one really knocked it out of the park! The chicken tikka kebabs were tender and perfectly cooked with an amazing flavor, the eggplant curry was just heaven, and the tamarind sauce is the best I've ever had- and of course the garlic naan was amazing! I ordered for take out and the server was very friendly. The interior was nice and bright and they even have tables outside with umbrellas. I'm so excited that this place is so close! I can't wait to try the other dishes that others raved about! read more

We dined in here last week, you place the order, pick your glass of water, silverware and plates and wait for the food. We got veg jalfrezi and garlic naan and it was served hot and tasted delicious! The best garlic naan I have had in a while! We also tried gajar ka halwa which did not work for me (tasted coconut in it). Maybe next time I would try a different dessert in this place. Good service! Would definitely go back and try more dishes here! read more

My husband and I have recently tried (twice) and absolutely love and would love to share our experience (both ordering takeout). If you are a fan of Indian food, you definitely have to try Bombay Street Cafe. All their foods and sauces are scratch made. Their tandoori chicken is our #1 tandoori chicken after 2 big orders. Chicken biryani is fantastic, and their mint chutney are our new favorites. We are huge fans of Indian food and go at least once a week to an Indian restaurant in our area. We wanted to check out the new restaurant and are not disappointed. In fact, we think their prices are reasonable and will be back frequently. Take a look at their vast menu on their website, as well as their lunch special $8.99 veg combo or $9.99 for non-veg combo. Stop by and tell them Natalia highly recommended them. read more

So good. Goat chetinad (I am sure I am spelling it wrong!) is delicious and not only bones as it can sometimes be at other places. Lentil soup etc.... It's all good. Hard to find a consistent Indian restaurant in my experience, but so far so good with Desi Spice Cafe. It's a bit expensive, but everything seems to be nowadays. read more

Tried Bombay Street Cafe in the middle of the afternoon recently, when our usual "go to" Indian place was closed between lunch and dinner services. The store is not fancy, but we were very pleasantly surprised by the wonderful quality of the dishes we ordered - everything seemed fresh, it was ready very quickly, and it was delicious. We would definitely return when we want quick-takeout in the middle of the day. Items we tried, all ordered "Medium" spicy: - Samosas = the pastry was light and flaky, and perfectly fried in fresh oil at just the right temperature so they were not greasy. Cilantro chutney was especially tasty. - Malai Kofta = veg cheese balls were a perfect, soft texture and perfectly fried, and the creamy curry sauce was very nicely spiced. - Saag Aloo = this curry dish was a prepared a bit drier than we usually prefer, but the flavors were lovely. We would have liked it better if it were a bit more "liquidy." - Garlic Butter Naan = tasted freshly grilled, great texture and taste. read more

As I was sitting waiting on my food I saw a bunch of dismal reviews. I got worried, so, I decided to pay extra attention to all aspects of this meal. I tried to document it all. I am a white girl who can handle moderate spice married to a white guy who tolerates none. This was a medium spice butter and zero spice biryani, to test, for him for future dinners. I appreciated the fact they left out all spice, thus it affected the overall taste for me. He would be pleased tho. Certainly not an Indian food expert. Started of with the lentil soup, definitely not what I was expecting as it's blended and very thin but wholly flavorful and a touch spicy, it comes with a veggie cream sauce. Super delicious!! I absolutely loved the soup! Butter chicken a okay, made with white meat chicken, I'd definitely prefer dark or I'll go with Paneer. It was fine. Not award winning but average butter chicken. And please don't take average as bad, it was good! Spiced as I asked. Medium. We enjoyed the cream cheese stuffed naan for a change of pace, didn't really get much garlic or butter. Chicken Biryani was okay, I didn't think it had much flavor, I used some sauce and I liked it better. Not bad but a bit bland. But also had zero spice, please remember that. I loved the hot Masala tea, on a chilly winter day. They serve it unsweetened so I added some sweetener and it was yummy. I found it to be an average/good experience with the soup, tea & naan, very good. The quality was good and everything was fresh. Certainly not a one star meal. I think some of those reviews were skewed in some way or just plain nasty. They were very nice and helpful. I would return. I had a horrible overly spicy experience at Desi Aroma, zero customer service. I would not return there, ever. read more

Good food and I'm happy to go there. Value was good. North Indian cooking and variety. I enjoyed it. They're always friendly.

I never leave reviews, I just come for the food pics but since this place doesn't have many yet, I thought I'd leave mine here! Came here for late lunch take-out. Took about 15 min to get my food which isn't bad at all. Everything I got was AMAZING and I will definitely be back to try other items on the menu!! Aloo tikki chaat was probably my favorite of what I got. Butter paneer masala w rice 4/5 Garlic butter naan 5/5 Onion pakora half 5/5 Aloo tikki chaat 5/5 (or 1000000/5, whatever) Also the portions are great, this is going to turn into 2.5-3 meals for me lol read more

FANTASTIC! Every time we've eaten here we've said how wonderful it is. And, we forget to take pictures because it's so good it's easy to just dive in and enjoy it! Generally we get the food to go but every time we've been in the space is clean and tidy and the service is friendly. Highly recommend! read more

Wow! This place is fantastic! We ordered a bunch of stuff and ate family style. It's casual dining and a lot of to-go orders. I'm so happy to have found Hombay Street and can't wait to go back and try some of their many other dishes. Highly recommend! APPETIZERS: Samosas - delicious! Chicken 65 - so yumm! Gobi Manchurian - AMAZING! Our favorite! ENTREES: Garlic Naan was perfect! Chicken Tikka Masala - great! Chicken Butter Masala - also great! Paneer Butter Masala - delicious! Chicken Kebabs - tasty! read more

Ordered Chicken 65, Butter Chicken, Samosas, and garlic naan bread. All very tasty and cooked to perfection. I like my food somewhat spicy, so they really delivered on the flavors! read more

Service is very, very slow. I would not recommend this place. It took more than 25 minutes for pre-made samosa and chai. Chai was sugar-free, was never mentioned during order, or was offered for pickup read more

My wife and I really enjoyed our food here. Fun music to bop our heads to as we feasted on the butter chicken and chicken tika. Very wholesome food and left full with leftovers. Plus friendly staff. read more

Amazing good! Me and my family went for lunch and dinner twice and it was amazing! The customer service was great and the tikka masala and butter chicken was some of the best I've had in mckinney! read more

My co-worker and I met up here for dinner this week simply because it was a convenient location and we both like Indian food. We were both pleasantly surprised when we walked in. The place was super clean, the smells coming out of the kitchen were wonderful and everything looked new. The girl working the register was really sweet and helpful and the Tikki Masala was super flavorful with large portions and the garlic Naan was everything I hoped it would be. The friendly owner came and talked to us for a bit and we found out this is a family run business and it's only been open a few months. If you like to support family businesses and love Indian food, this place should be at the top of your list! I don't get to McKinney very often, but I'll remember this restaurant for sure. read more

We have been searching for that perfect spot where the spices and flavor explode in your mouth - and we found it! Bombay Street Cafe is delicious! Samoas-Naan- Chili Paneer all amazing but the one that stole the show was the Korma Curry - OUTSTANDING!!!!! On top of the food, the customer service we received - on a call in order to boot - was over the top and deserves to be recognized! Covering every detail by calling and keeping me informed was top notch! We are so excited to have this level of food and service so close to us! read more

BRUH. This place "slaps" so hard, ya mamma's cheeks will be sore in the morning. Definitely get the Pakora. It's like onion rings but BETTER. The paneer in their Paneer Butter Masala is the BEST. The samosa's are good, not great - but very good. I'm excited to make my way through the menu. Be prepared to wait after you order because they are making it FRESH! The wait is worth it. read more

Wanted to try since we love Indian spices. Glad we did! It's hard to find authentic food and this place is the real Malai Kofta - just right amount of spice Tikka Masala - chicken was tender and broth was creamy Vindaloo- Tender and spicy This is a locally owned business that makes their own spices and cooks from scratch. They have an extensive menu that we are excited try on subsequent visits. Kets keep them in business. read more

Came here on a Saturday evening and they seemed to be out of few items from their menu. We wanted to try their Pav bhaji which was in making and took some extra time to come to table. Taste- was okay, little on the spicer end. Quantity of bhaji was also less. Pavs were a decent size What I disliked most is that even for dine in they serve food in to-go boxes and cheap plastic containers!! read more

I will definitely come back . The samosas are phenomenal!! Thank you SK!!! I can't wait to try more read more

Desi Spice Cafe - Nice place - Indian Near Me - McKinney, Texas

Fast and friendly service. The food was amazing and reasonably priced. I had the Malai Kofta. Recommended!

Been here 3x always been good, I've had a variety of chicken dishes, naan, and appetizers. I'm tired of all the chain restaurants in this area and I'm glad to see family restaurants coming to the area. Please give them try, don't expect fast food service, if you want that go to rice noodle. The food is always hot comes out pretty quickly and is great. I've tried Indian food from London to California and this perfect for Prosper. read more

You cannot make this stuff up. They call them "Bombay" street food. Ignoring their blatant (albeit failed attempt at promoting colonization), this food is no where near Mumbai's street food or anywhere near north Indian food or Indian food for that matter. To garnish it, they have horrible customer service. It is ok if you can't speak English. At least answer the question in 4 other languages that the customer can fluently speak in. What's up with insults? read more

Outstanding! Most delicious! The samosas were the best we have ever had - the pastry was perfection! We had biryanis and masala and both were the best! We will definitely be back! read more

My girlfriend wanted butter chicken but we were unsatisfied with the other Indian place by our home, so this was the next closest option. I ordered butter chicken myself with tomato soup and garlic naan. I haven't tried many places but this is the best Indian food I have ever had so far! Tomato soup was exactly what I was craving and at a good price, the butter chicken was beautiful presented with garnish and other visible delicious spices, the garlic naan! Best I've ever had, it was bubbly and crispy I have never had it like that before. Portions were great for the price, I took the left overs home and after eating it I still have more to eat. I think me being a white guy I looked out of place and the owner asked what brought me to the location, I explained, he said thankyou to my girlfriend for suggesting the place and I felt very welcomed! I sat an enjoyed and savored my meal. Staff we kind and inviting, definitly coming here again next time I want Indian food!! EAT HERE THIS IS THE PLACE! read more

I found a roach in my food! I got food poisoning from this place and was in the hospital for 3 days.

Mango Lassi was great. Chole Bhature were less than average. Overall Service was good.

Everyone who works here is super sweet and they have really great food for low prices too :)

Amazing food! Absolutely love their butter chicken, and tikka chicken. Will definitely be back soon!

The people here are very nasty guy didn't wash his hand after taking my money. Don't recommend eating here, my friend felt sick after eating here read more

Great place! The food was not at bland.. quite flavorful & delish; we got butter chicken, & chk vindaloo, both mild & served appropriately; egg biryani, medium.. all good; the drinks were great too.. homemade mango & rose lassi..& basil seed pomegranate .. all yums; tried dessert rasmalai for 1st, wow, no words, delish.... read more

Average food. Doesn't seem like it is made by Indian cooks from India. Please make sure that the food is balanced for salt and spice level as it should be. read more

The food here is amazing, and is only topped by the incredibly friendly people who work here. The owner is so nice and always takes the time to talk to you. The lady who works here is so kind and welcoming too. The food truly is some of the best we have had! We have been here twice and both experiences have been great. Can't wait to come back again soon! read more

This place touts the Bombay Street food scenario. The Samosa Chaat I tried was really good, the spice level was perfect. However, I had the best item I had was the Goat Rogan Josh. This place has so many menu items to choose from. This Place is very nice, spacious, and clean. I would bring my family here next time and I will try the Chicken Biryani for sure. read more

We stopped in to check it out. Not fancy, but dining area was clean and tidy. We don't really know our Indian cuisine well at all, but know a little. We ordered chicken tikka masala, lamb biryani, and butter naan bread, for two. We requested it a little extra spicy. The Chicken tikka chicken was a little a bit dry, but sauce was very flavorful. Loved that with the naan. Spice level was right on for what we asked. The lamb biryani was also delicious, spicy, and flavorful, but watch out for the whole spice seeds mixed in. Lamb was plentiful and tender. Overall we really enjoyed the food, maybe a tad salty. Also had enough leftovers for some next day noshing. The ambiance and plasticware were not so great , but the food and service was very good. We will be going back to explore the menu some more! (To the owner: Would be good to have some photos of the dishes for new diners to better understand the dishes) read more
