    Everything was excellent. Desert on the set menu could be better.

    We were a table of 12 so not very easy to coordinate 5 courses with such a large party but Yusuf and the team were all incredible and exceedingly attentive. The food was sublime and I'm a good cook when it comes to Indian cuisine so all in all, a crackingly good experience!

    Such a bitterly disappointing experience - I have been waiting years to come to this restaurant and then had. a friend of mine come down from England for his 30th birthday and I decided to treat him to the set menu experience for his birthday. We arrived and ordered cocktails which then ended up taking over 30 minutes to arrive, we had finished 3 of the 5 courses before our first drink (the cocktails) arrived, we then waited around an hour for the main course (4th course) and then it arrived freezing cold. After mains we were offered another cocktail and promised if would be much faster ... needless to say we waited another 25 minutes for the martini. The food was actually good but such poor bar service and general timing of meals (rushed through 3 courses in about 10 minutes and then sat waiting an hour for the 4th) was extremely disappointing and just made the meal seem nowhere near the price we had to pay. All my friend could keep saying was "This is Awful" ... extremely disappointed

    It was absolutely disastrous, we had awful experience with quality and taste of food , it was unbeatable, food was not properly marinated , half cooked, without any bale of spices, even salt was not in proper quantity. Food was so bad that we got our main course packed and gave it to baggers out side hotel, I will never ever go back to this hotel and will not recommend any one to visit Bombay brassier. Shame being Indian chain of hotels which I always cherished while in India. Absolute failure!

    The food did not quite live up to our expectations - we last frequented this restaurant 12 years ago and what remained memorable from that visit was the outstanding cuisine, sadly this was not the case on Friday night.
