Very tasty curries and was a lovely Mateer Paneer . Service was attentive and friendly . They have their own parking lot and lovely ambience inside . My only critique would be the portions felt a bit small . read more

I went here for my birthday dinner. The food, drinks, and service were fantastic! I'll definitely be coming back.

What an incredible find in Burnaby! We were visiting a few year ago and we found this place. We knew someone who was a regular here and hence we decided to meet up at this restaurant. Everything that we ordered was very well cooked, absolutely delicious and beautiful to the eye! I wish I could have taken half the dishes with me to go that day - it was that good! Also, we only had all vegetarian options that day and not a single one disappointed us. Kudos to all in the kitchen and the servers - you guys are acing this game! read more

consistently unfriendly service during dine-in & takeout due to servers with that entitled mindset on tipping (especially for takeout); food was delicious, until recent chef change; wife & i were semi-regulars but wife said, "last straw, no more" read more

Super fresh and soft Garlic Naan My favourite main dish by far here is the Mattar Paneer. Sad to say every time we have ordered Gobi Pakora they never cut a hole in the container so it arrives soggy each time :( flavour good, just soggy. It's worth noting that to go isn't a good option for this Starter. Can't comment on atmosphere as we always order takeout. HIGHLY RECOMMEND THOSE that I mentioned. read more

Good food! People are too serious . Not very warm. Cool decor! Service was complete and no problems but not overly friendly. read more

I'm giving this 5 stars why not. I am not Indian but I do love my Indian food. This place is comparable to Indian restaurants both in Surrey and Vancouver. It can even be better! The service is fast and polite. The place is clean. The food is very tasty. I think the combination of spices for each dishes we ordered are on point. There were 2 Tv's hanging on the walls. Other people might find this annoying but not me. I thought it would be nice to watch hockey or other sports in a place other than a sports bar. The TVs didnt bother me at all. I am really glad that the food scene in Burnaby and New Westminster is improving (I live in Burnaby). I don't have to drive far for good Indian food. This place is highly recommended. read more

We ordered the mango butter chicken, garlic naan and pualo rice for takeout. The food was really good with big portions and affordable prices! We had leftovers for a second meal - the mango butter chicken is very similar to the normal butter chicken. More on my blog: https://sincerelyloewe.com/indian-bombay-bistro/ read more

Indian Bombay Bistro - Indian Near Me - Burnaby, British Columbia

I'm basing this rating on the really terrible Parata and the pretty good eggplant bartha. I think they should take the parata off their menu until they figure out how to properly make it. The dosa place I have had it from made it beautifully, and this version- heavy, tough and barely flaky, was a real disappointment. I hope they learn how to do it right. It looks like they might be really good otherwise but here you go for my honest impression. I would try again but with another bread or rice. I am really enjoying the eggplant bartha. read more

It doesn't get better than this place especially for living locally. The curries just have so much depth and richness to them they are amazing. We have tried other places at a cheaper price point and we are always disappointed and compare it to here. Our current favorites are the butter chicken curry, mango butter chicken, prawn malai, and chicken korma. We love that their naan is hand made and perfect level of fluffiness. So far we haven't found anything on the menu we don't love! read more

**TAKEOUT REVIEW** It was NYE and the hubs and I decided to just have a quiet night at home. We ordered take out from this place at 4:41pm and was told 35mins for the order to be ready. We picked up at 5:21pm and it was ready for us. There was no one dining in the restaurant area, but at least 6-8 customers ordering takeout. The decor appears to be modern and inside appears clean. Payment process was fast (Credit cards were accepted) Now, the food: - Chicken Tikka Masala ($15): surprisingly a lot more protein and other ingredients than comparable restaurants. The substance:sauce ratio is almost 2:1. - Fish Pakora ($11): more fish, less batter, more flavourful but less pieces than comparable restaurants. The chutney was flavourful. - Lamb Biryani ($17): again, surprisingly a lot of lamb without bones, meaty. The substance:rice ratio is almost 0.5:1. - Naan ($2): The naan was ok. As expected. Kind of expensive as we only got 2 pieces. Overall, great takeout experience. Would come back to try other menu items again. read more

An unexpected dinner detour took us to Indian Bombay Bistro. Located in this small and quaint area of Burnaby, the restaurant sits in a relatively quiet neighbourhood. The inside is spacious so there's no real concern of feeling squished at all -- a plus of living in the suburbs. Good selection of food here but I went for my favourite chicken biryani dish, a classic staple whenever I go out. The portion is not as cheap as places in Surrey but the size of the meal was enough for dinner plus a little extra leftovers for the next day. Servers were also very nice and attentive and I appreciated the fact that they let us take our time. Overall, good place to go to if you're in the area. The convenience of good Indian food without having to travel too far can never be underestimated. read more

Indian Bombay Bistro - Indian Near Me - Burnaby, British Columbia

There's a whole bunch of Indian places in this area of south burnaby / new west. This place came highly recommended by the readers of the Burnaby Beacon. I ordered one order of chicken biryani. It was huge, for $20 cad it's like enough for three meals. It was quite tasty. Chicken was tender. I asked for mild and it was mild, just a tiny bit of spice. Looking forward to coming again and trying different dishes. read more

When I am writing about Indian restaurant , I am very authentic n realistic about the taste of the food and service provided. Mostly , there is no comparison of Indian food in Vancouver to food in surrey but this Burnaby restaurant matches the flavours of Indian food. Decor is nice with bright colours on the walls n booth plus table setting. Bar is decent looking . There is a separate dining area as well which I think is for big families though I didn't get a chance to peek into it. I was delighted to find "kardi" on the menu. Yum , it was very tasty n the roti was soft. Rest of the menu is pretty much the same as all other Indian restaurants. Service needs to be improved n servers need to learn serving skills. read more

I'm a regular at the Indian bombay bistro i went there to get something to eat it was early in the morning they just opened i went in and told the waitress I wanted to wait for a little bit before I had something to eat she said okay and so I went to the washroom and a little later the waitress told me to go clean the toilet because she told me I made it dirty i couldn't believe she would ask me to clean up the toilet but when I went in to clean it up I found a needle in the sink and a condom on the ground it was disgusting so I cleaned it up and I went back and ordered my food but before I could finish eating it they told me that my table was reserved already and my time was up and I had to leave so I got a little upset because they didn't warn me ahead of time so I told them I wanted to speak to the manager and they kept ignoring me so I finally left and I didn't my food it was a very bad experience I would never go back there again. read more

Indian Bombay Bistro - the outside of a restaurant - Indian Near Me - Burnaby, British Columbia

If you're coming here for something new or different from the usual Indian fare, then this isn't the place. But if you want a place that has good, classic curries that always hit the spot, this is the place for you. Only thing I don't like is the price (hence why this is only four stars), but other than that, I don't have anything bad to say about the place. I especially liked the palak paneer--the spinach curry tasted great and didn't have any unprocessed spices, paneer was meaty and browned on the outside, and when combined with rice or naan, it formed a near-universal comfort food. read more

We have been eating at Bombay bistro for a few years now and the food has been consistently good . The ambience is great and the service is awesome. Neetu is very welcoming and always checking in to make sure everything is good . This cozy restaurant has left the best impressions. We have brought many friends along and they all loved the place too . read more

The only noteworthy Indian restaurant in Burnaby. Decor and ambiance is beautiful, food is mouthwatering, service is very friendly.

$4.95 Salty Lassi was delicious 5/5. For Indian Breads: $4.50 Chicken Nann 4.5/5 - Pizza like quality $3.95 Alu Paratha 4.5/5 $4.50 Spinach Naan 4/5 - spanakopita quality Not sure if it's because it was gorgeous and sunny out, but I recommend dressing warm as the air conditioner was cranked to the max. read more

Best Indian food in the neighbourhood! We love their mango butter chicken, all of their paneer dishes, and the naan is incredible. And of course, their pakoras are amazing. They always taste freshly fried and arrive accompanied with a pair of yummy sauces for dipping. Love it here, best food, service, and great space. read more

When we first saw the restaurant, it looked like a new building, but once inside you could tell that the place has been there for a number of years. They must have upgraded the exterior from the looks of it. We were greeted by a pleasant waitress. We recieved our food shortly after we placed our order. We started off with the Vegetarian Pakoras. It was a tasty appetizer with accompanied tamarind sauce. We shared the Indian Bombay Bistro Dinner. This included Tandoori Chicken, Chicken Tikka, Lamb Kebab, and a choice of Curry Chicken or Dal (yellow lentils) and includes naan. It sufficiently fed us both. It was delicious and ample enough meat. We did order some roti too as my other half prefers that over naan. read more

Living in New Westminster you really only have a few choices for Indian and none of them are particularly good for one who grew up across the bridge in Surrey, a veritable Mecca of Indian food. So yesterday, when I was driving down Sixth and spotted Indian Bombay Bistro, I called DH and told him dinner was cancelled, we were going out! The ambiance is what hits you first. It's a brand new building and a stunning restaurant with bright splashes of colour against dark laminate wood fixtures. Modern decor paired with comfortable booths. The only thing that didn't work for me was the TVs, which cheapened the decor - but then I have a thing against TVs in nice restaurants. Leave them for the sports bars, please. Then you get hit with the attentive and friendly service. Our beers were delivered promptly, and with a smile, as were the glasses of water we requested. We were seemingly being cared for by multiple team members - not just one waitress. This was never really messy and came off pretty seemless. Total time in the restaurant was under an hour for two who weren't on a social occasion. Finally, and the most important, is the menu. Indian Bombay Bistro has done a great job of bringing together several of the old favourites with some exciting and equally delicious new ones. For our first venture, we selected the Chicken Malai and the Eggplant Bharta, the Rice Palau, and a few naan (garlic and plain), The Chicken Malai was out of this world good. A new dish for us, it was as if Thai Curry got with Indian Korma at a bar one night and a star was born. The coconut cream was delicious, and the texture was amplified with the finely (grated?) onions that gave the sauce incredible body. I truly loved this dish. The Eggplant Bharta was also very good. It had better body than some of the other ones I've tasted and was well-seasoned. The Naan and Rice Palau were both very good, and I'd say better than the competition in the area. Both dishes had the character of being very well prepared. The spices were cooked properly and as such, blended together into a very flavourful, but not raw flavour. The plating and presentation, also equally good. This has turned into an very long review for this new restaurant (which I suspect will be booming in no time), but I hope it gives you an idea of what to expect. The only criticism is it was slightly more expensive than their Surrey counterparts, but I think they can charge it, given the quality and the competition! Note: I will go a few more times before I give it a solid five, but I suspect it will get there. read more

I'd heard good things about this place and popped by on my own on a Friday evening. It was fairly busy in there but there was a quiet little table in the furthest room in the back that was just right. Decor is fun and colourful and modern, not your "traditional" Indian interior design but a bright and sassy variation. I only got the malai kofta and a rasmalai for dessert, and it was all delicious and flavourful. I ordered the meal medium spicy, which was a good choice - a pleasant bit of kick to it but nothing overwhelming (I like my spice but I have my typical Westerner limits.) The sauce was rich and creamy and it was filling and generous enough for me to bring leftovers home. Dessert was fresh and delicate. Service was indifferent but efficient, and the food came quickly. I'll definitely check it out again and try a wider range of things! read more

Very good Indian in our visit to Vancouver. Got lamb, chicken, daal. All good and tasty

Outstanding Indian food, very flavorful, and lots of great vegetarian options. I especially loved the Paneer Shahi Korma and the Kadahi Paneer (I hadn't tried the latter before, really delicious). The Onion Bhaji and Aloo Mutter Samosas were great too. Lovely ambience and excellent service. Highly recommended. read more

Came here with a friend for a late lunch around 2:15 PM. We easily found parking as there was a parkade immediately behind the restaurant with spacious stalls. To be completely honest, I had never eaten at an Indian restaurant before, so this was my very first time. I loved how modern and colourful they decorated the restaurant. There were barely anyone at the restaurant, probably because of the time we went. We were quickly seated and given the menu. The server notified us of the lunch specials, which were beef curry, chicken curry, and butter chicken with rice, and naan. I ordered the butter chicken lunch special and a mango milkshake. My friend ordered the mango lassi, and they essentially tasted the same, except the milkshake was creamier. We didn't have to wait long before our dishes came. The naan was so delicious and moist, even when eaten on its own. The butter chicken was creamy and it had a nice kick to it. I thought the chicken pieces were a little bit too dry, but the sauce made up for that. I almost had to order an extra side of rice because the butter chicken was just so appetizing. I also enjoyed the basmati rice as it had a very nice texture and no two grains of rice were stuck together. The rice absorbed the curry perfectly. Service was decent. Server came by to refill our water and took away our empty dishes. I did feel a little pressured to get the bill because of the way the server had said it. I was still working on my mango milkshake, and was definitely planning on finishing it. All things aside, it was an inexpensive meal and I was very satisfied with the quality of their food. read more

This restaurant made for a very pleasant dining experience. The atmosphere was on point. Service was polite. A little slow but still pretty good. Food was good. I recommend the mango milk shake. Price was decent, around $12 a plate. There was a place to park around the side of the building. The Only set back was there was about 4 large screen T.V's going on all at once. Which was sort of distracting, and took away from the over all classy design of the restaurant. That being said, I would probably eat there again. read more

Ordered delivery through Skip the Dishes today. It was my first time trying out this place and since I haven't been into the restaurant itself, I can only comment on the food, which was delicious. We ordered the vegetable curry, chana masala, tandoori roti and vegetable pakoras. Portion sizes were very generous and prices were reasonable. Between two people, we have enough leftovers for another meal for both of us tomorrow. Overall, very happy with our experience and we'll definitely be coming to visit in person sometime! read more

solid place, great flavour, creamy and not too salty/oily. We always get goat curry & butter chicken both medium spice-- can't go wrong! Add 2 orders of garlic naan and you'll thank yourself. More than enough for two people. A little over average price but worth every bite. read more

Indian Bombay Bistro is a surprisingly good restaurant located on 6th Street in Burnaby that I've been to on a number of occasions. Back in March, I came back for a revisit (there's not a lot of great Indian restaurants around the Edmonds area) and tried their Chicken Malai ($12.95) and an order of garlic naan ($2.95). I also ordered some rice (which doesn't come with their entrées) because you simply need to have some rice to soak up the sauces with. The garlic naan is really good here... light, crisp, and flaky. They've also got some stuffed naan that is quite good as well. The Chicken Malai is a good alternative to butter chicken. The tender boneless chicken is marinated in coconut cream and fresh spices and cooked in a thick, rich, and creamy onion sauce. read more

I came here on a Thursday evening and it was busy! It looked like there were two large parties happening that night. The restaurant was full at 6:30pm. The popularity and good reviews on Yelp raised my expectations for this place. The interior is pretty trendy and clean. It was a very comfortable ambiance inside. We ordered fish pakora, mango butter chicken, chicken tandoori, rice and naan. The pakora came with mint chutney and some sort of tartar like sauce. I usually love mint chutney, but this one was rather diluted and flavorless. The chicken tandoori came next and if was pretty mild in flavor and had some unpleasant, hard pieces that I had to spit out. The rice was also basic and nothing special. Then came the naan and the mango butter chicken, which we really enjoyed. The naan was fluffy, buttery and perfect amount of chewiness. The mango butter chicken was creamy, flavorful, with large chunks of chicken and had a slight sweetness from the mangos. I would come back and just order curry and naan in the future! read more

Hey BIB, we ordered our Father's Day Lunch from you via UberEats and there were rocks/stones in Matar Paneer and Kari-Pakora. What is even more terrifying to me is my kids at the same food !!! And that includes a 9-month old baby! Yes!! You have given us a nightmarish experience and I can't imagine what they have eaten! I tried to send this to you via email or any other medium but looks like you don'T have presence on other channels. Severely disappointed! We ordered after reading the great reviews and food was good in taste as well. But this is something that cannot be just shrugged off without notifying!!! Please take corrective actions immediately!!! Don't think will be ordering again read more

I'd been to this place twice. Both experiences were great. If you want to go to a presentable Indian Bistro this place is not going to disappoint you. The decor is current. The place is clean. I didn't know what to order during my recent visit so to be safe I had the Butter Chicken. It was offered as a lunch menu so it was cheaper than the full order. It came with rice and naan bread. It was so yummy. I really like this place. My friends were raving about their orders too. I love this place so much that I'm giving it 4 stars - it didn't matter that the servers/waitresses were slow in processing our payments. But by then we were fed so 4 stars it is. read more
