Bombay Kitchen + Bar - Commercial Dr — Restaurant in Vancouver

I recently placed an order from Uber, taking advantage of their buy one get one promotion. Unfortunately, I was greatly disappointed with the quantity of the dish I received, as it was less than half the usual portion size. While I understand that promotions are meant to offer a deal, I felt that this reflected cost-cutting measures and compromised the overall quantity of food provided.

To add to the disappointment, the chicken tikka I ordered not only had a fishy smell indicating spoiled chicken, but it was also undercooked and lacked the flavorful spices I expected. Despite opting for delivery, I decided to return to the restaurant with my order so that the manager/chef could witness the problem firsthand. Regrettably, upon reaching the restaurant, I encountered an unfriendly manager who was also serving as the chef for the day. Initially, they seemed unwilling to address the issue or offer a resolution.

This entire ordeal not only wasted my entire evening but also left me feeling extremely dissatisfied with the entire experience. Upon returning home, I had no choice but to discard the food due to the persistent smell, bland flavor, and oily texture that did not meet the standards expected from this restaurant (possibly since the actual chef was not around today).

Given the attitude of the chef and the evident cost-cutting measures, I cannot recommend this restaurant to others. However, I do hope that the owner takes prompt steps to rectify these issues, as the place has potential with better...

Did the unlimited Thali. There's no information about it online. It comes with naan, rice, chickpea curry, 2 curry items, and one gulab jamun. You have to pick veg or non-veg and cannot mix. We picked non-veg and there are 3 options: butter chicken, lamb curry, or beef curry. The server did not specify what type of curry so I don't know what it is. You can choose the spiciness levels as well. When you want to order more, you can only refill the things you had. You cannot choose a different curry. Those are the limitations of this unlimited thali. You're also allowed to refill anything else on your thali (rice, naan, chickpea curry, gulab jamun).

We chose the butter chicken and lamb curry. It took extremely long for the orders to come. Each curry only had about 3-4 pieces of meat on it. The butter chicken was extremely good - probably the best I've had. The lamb was very tender. We asked for more refills and those came fairly quickly. However, the refills for 2 people is really just as much for 1 person - the same 3-4 pieces of meat to share between the both of us. The naan was nice and soft. The gulab jamun was well made as well.

Overall the quality is very good but having 1 server to handle the customers, the calls, and the delivery services is hard. There were only 2 tables seated at the time and the server was so busy already that one customer walked in, waited, and then walked out because nobody...

He prepared a drink that was, without a doubt, the best cocktail I've had in recent memory. His mixology skills and attention to detail elevated the entire dining experience.​
